Primary 5\/6 had the most fantastic morning cooking up a storm with Irish celebrity chef Adrian, along with \u00a0Stewart from S Collins & Son Butchers, Muirhead. We were delighted that Natasha Tobin, Store Manager from our local Co-op, Stephen Moore, NLC Quality Improvement Officer (Health and Wellbeing)\u00a0 and Dorothy-Ann Aubrey, NLC Focus on Food Development Officer were able to join us. We were also pleased that Jennifer and her mum came along too because we didn’t want them to miss this fantastic event!<\/p>\n

Adrian and Stewart started off with a presentation. We learned about different cuts of\u00a0\u00a0meat and where the cuts come from on the animal. \u00a0We also learned about the importance of being able to trace the origins of the meat we eat and how best to cook the different cuts.<\/p>\n\n

Then we had a fabulous cookery demonstration where Chef Adrian created 3 wonderful dishes\u00a0 –\u00a0 steak with potato rosti, spring rolls and checken curry. Adrian helped us all become aware of the dangers of our unhealthy diets and the problems we will face in the future if we don’t educate ourselves on what we should be eating and how we should cook it. He also showed us how easy, delicious and healthy it is to cook from scratch using locally sourced ingredients.<\/p>\n
