Marvellous Mexican Cooking!

This half term we have been cooking! We started the topic by looking at the principles of a healthy and varied diet then moved on to look at where and how a variety of ingredients are grown, reared, caught and processed. We decided to focus on Mexican cuisine so spent some time researching the culture and their cuisine. 

In our first week of cooking, we made nachos, guacamole and salsa. We made all of these from scratch, using the bridge technique to chop the vegetables and cut the tortillas to form the nachos. Here are the links to the recipes we used:

During our second week, we made quesadillas! Again, we used the techniques we learnt the previous week and even had a go at flipping our quesadillas! Here are the links to the recipes we used:

In our final week, we cooked Mexican rice and tacos. Here are the links to the recipes we used:

What a fiesta of a time we have had making all of these delicious dishes!
