5LM worked with Mrs Rehals’ daal recipe. Different groups used different types of lentils, onions and strengths of chilli. By our 4th attempt we think Mrs Rehal would have been impressed! It was so good we shared with 5SK who loved it!
Again, using fuel for schools food, 4CC made a delicious and nutritious vegetable lasagna enjoyed by the whole class!
We opened the cafe early to welcome year 6 for breakfast and a chat before their SATS tests. What a great atmosphere!
The last batch of Pakoras were made by 5SK and after being tested, were given to 5LM to sample. Did you enjoy them 5LM?
Fruit crumble with 3DC using apples from ‘fuel for schools’. Always a favourite!
Our first ‘pass it on’ cafe in May saw Mr Spink tucking into a delicious Iranian rice dish.
Then 5SK continued their search for the perfect pakora. We decided on a bit of extra chilli and think we’ve perfected our recipe. Did you have the chance to buy a bag of them in the playground?
4DM have been preparing a selection of jam and lemon tarts for their celebration event on Friday 12th. Some people found pastry making challenging, however the finished tarts look delicious!
The last group in 4CC to make their treat for their celebration event joined me in the cafe to make plum jam tarts. Just like last weeks groups, they each made their own pastry and filled the tarts with plum jam made with last years fruit from our own tree at ACE. The delicious tarts were enjoyed by both children and parents!
As part of this terms topic, 5SK have been making and tasting, vegetable pakoras. The first group made a baked healthy option and the second group followed a more traditional recipe. Both results were enjoyed by the majority of the class, however we decided the traditional fried ones were definitely best. We plan to keep experimenting as other groups from the class have their cookery sessions.
Monday morning drop in, for coffee and croissants, began another busy week in the ACE cafe! The cafe is open from 8.30am until 9.30am, for a coffee or tea and a Danish pastry. Everyone is welcome.
Tuesday saw another ‘pass it on cafe’ where we enjoyed a demonstration of stir fried vegetable rice noodles. Delicious!
First I must apologise for having no photos this week. I left my iPad at home?. However we have still been very busy in the cafe!
Tuesday saw a ‘pass it on’ demonstration of delicious onion bhajis.
On Wednesday a group of children from 3DC made fruit crumbles and sold them on the playground. Were you a lucky customer?
Then on Thursday some of the students from 4DM used some of the ‘fuel for schools’ food to make Collcanon for their class mates. A traditional Irish recipe, using potatoes, cabbage and onions, it was enjoyed by the majority of Mr Moore’s class.
This morning we served coffee and tea both before Ahmed’s assembly and for the open day of our September intake. Finally 4CC made jam tarts for their celebration event next Friday. They each made their own pastry and filled the tarts with plum jam made from the plums picked in our own orchard. A treat to look forward too.
