Holiday Cooking
Well, spring has certainly sprung in the kitchen and garden! Students have enjoyed cooking with produce from the garden including a particularly big cauliflower, lots of herbs and of course the fresh eggs from our chickens. We have broad beans growing beautifully on a magnificent student and parent structure - thank you Fiona!
This week we decided to make the most of the gorgeous Spring sunshine and ate outside on our lovely deck. We used the last of the winter produce in a menu which included cauliflower pasties and Okonomiyaki, or Japanese style vegetable pancakes. This dish is a popular street or snack food in Japan and is easily replicated at home. You can follow the recipe we used (below) but after you've made it once or twice, you'll probably add your own spin. It's a fabulous way to use up the odds and ends in your vege drawer! Make sure you remember to add a flourish at the end with your squiggly mayonnaise and barbeque sauce .
