Cooking – Braidbar Primary 7b Blog

Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom!

As mentioned in a previous post and to celebrate the end of Chinese New Year we cooked a feast today!

On the menu today was sweet and sour stir fry Quorn ‘chicken’ with soy and ginger noodles and Chinese BBQ Quorn ‘chicken’ with egg-fried rice and vegetables. Of course there were prawn crackers to dip in too!

The aromas coming from our classroom were just delicious and we couldn’t wait to have a try before lunch!

Once we finished the sweet and sour dish it was time to cook the BBQ one with the next group. Take a look… Here’s one of our finished dishes –

Kung Hei Fat Choi!

To celebrate Chinese New Year and as part of our IDL topic on ‘China’, we have been creating and making decorations for the classroom.

Next week, after the holiday weekend we will be cooking some Chinese inspired dishes including stir-fry. We will update the blog with a post to show the fruits of our labour!

We guess the only question is: Would you like noodles or rice with that?

What’s your favourite topping?

We were so excited again to be cooking this week!

We made some healthy pitta pizzas and they were sooooooo scrummy that we had to have a try before we went home!

Healthy Smoothies

Thank you to Yasmin and Rydha’s Gran’s who came to help us in class this afternoon. A special thank you also to Miss Paterson who helped us write-up our recipe cards at the board afterwards!

We made some nutritionally balanced fruit and vegetable smoothies. They seemed to go down a treat judging by Luc’s response – “That is theeee best smoothie evvvver!”.
