Austerity was in the air at the Approved Premises on Wednesday 11
July. The group had previously been given a list of items in a virtual
store cupboard so they could cook up a healthy and appealing dinner with
minimal ingredients. We were impressed with the enthusiasm and
self-assured capabilities of each participant and enthralled when they
devised a three-course menu of onion bhajis with a mustard and mayonnaise dip,
pizza with coleslaw (being prepared above) and kedgeree, and
a no-measure pancake mix for dessert.
So on Wednesday, as an onlooker,
you may have mistook the tears streaming down their cheeks, thinking the guys were emotionally
overwhelmed with this challenge - but it was purely down to the amount of
onions needed in varying styles for the bhajis, pizza, coleslaw and
kedgeree! Once the frying started and the room filled will that
undeniably pleasing aroma, everyone ran with the challenge and many
independently got on with the tasks ahead.
Once we were sat enjoying our feast the guys commented that fresh pizza was definitely better than frozen and that they would cook the menu again!
