Fun & Friendly Cooking Classes for Children - exploring world fruits and foods, nutrition, food production and growing our own food too!

I rarely post anything personal on my work inst-feed but as this is my last post for a week - as I want to take a step back on my holiday before the madness of the Winter term - AND this is CPD (!) I couldnt help but post these photos of the most amazing time we had at a Balinese cooking class, at Rumah’s cooking class - Putu Ramayani

Not only was the food that Rumah guided us gently and patiently through (as we had to blend the paste with a mortar and pestle) full of flavour and colour and organic and natural, once having cooked and eaten together we chatted...

And sitting under an old Balinese grain store we spoke about food, culture, life, marriage, family, hopes, dreams as though I was talking to an old friend and sitting in a kitchen in England. Perfect moments.

Happy cooking and eating and sharing together, will be back on Monday 7th x

We cooked:
Soup (appetizer) : vegetable (pumpkin/young jackfruit), chicken and balinese sauce
-Tum: chicken choper, balinese sauce, wrapped with banana leaf and we steamer
-Satay: chicken choper, grated coconut, balinese sauce and grill with lemon grass stick
-Urab: mix vegetable, grated coconut and balinese sauce
-Loteng Jagung: young coconut, egg, rice flour, balinese sauce and we fried
-dadar gulung (dessert): balinese pancake with coconut and palm sugar

We are now preparing for our After-School Cooking Classes to kick off in half our partner schools on 7th September and the other half on the 14th! And getting our Cook leads and the Schools ready for Benedicts Law which is a new statutory allergy safety guidance coming into effect in schools from the 1st September.

Thank you to Jenni ICAP for flagging this all up to its members, its so important the child activity providers are part of an established network which keeps us up to date with changes in procedures and law.

I should have posted this over a month ago - when the wonderful Christelle and her daughters came to visit me and we had supper and breakfast again at the wonderful Piptree.

Those who have followed the comings and goings of Mix & Munch Cooks will know from a post over a year ago that I met Christelle as her daughters attended our After-School Cooking Sessions at Dallington School EC1 when they were based in London one term. Christelle got in touch and last year visited us and we cooked some fabulous Swiss dishes with the Mix & Munch Cook Leads and my local Southfields Foodie group.

Lovely to share again our passion of food and flavours a year later.

A lasagna is always a great dish to make on all our holiday cooking classes - with all the chopping, the layering and making the béchamel sauce (which takes ages when making it for 13 cooks!)

Our onion chopper is always a hit to use and indispensable for kids to chop onions finely.

Next holiday cooking classes are on the week of 26th October 👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳
