Year 4: Friday cooking


Today we had our first cooking session. We prepared some stuffed potatoes.



Let's take a look at the nutritional information in a potato

If you would like to try this out at home here is the recipe:

Ingredients
4 medium sized potatoes
a small can of tuna
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
2 onion slices
salt and pepper
2 cheese triangles

Method

First clean the skin of the potatoes under running water.
Pierce skin with a fork.
Arrange potatoes in the microwave.
Microwave, uncovered, for about 6 minutes at high power.
In the meantime, combine tuna, onion, and cheese in a bowl.
Take out potatoes from microwave, cut the top part of the potato to make a sort of lid and scoop out pulp.

Mash potatoes and tuna filling until light and fluffy. Season with salt and pepper.

Fill in the potatoes with the tuna stuffing and put the potato lid on top. Enjoy!

  2. Yes they were ever so excited. It's a pity we don't have a larger kitchen at school. We had to make do with a little table and a couple of chairs but still the kids enjoyed themselves. Hope they liked the end result too.
