Cooking Sri Lankan style

Date: Thursday 10 June 2010

Abingdon Cooking Club had a wonderful treat yesterday when Mrs Jay came to visit. Mrs Jay is from Sri Lanka and showed the children how to make a delicious Sri Lankan dish - Mango Chickpea Salad in Pitta Bread.

Mrs Jay taught the children how to peel a mango. The children watched carefully and practised slicing and chopping.

Then they made their own lime and mustard dressing.

Mrs Jay wore a beautiful Sri Lankan Sari and brought some for the teachers to wear too!

The Cooking Club children thought the pittas were delicious! Thank you very much Mrs Jay, we really appreciated your visit and hope to see you again soon!
