Ready, Steady, Cook! On Tuesday 16th November, the DT department hosted a interim “Cook Off” house competition for Sixth Form. Each house was asked to make two dishes using ten compulsory ingredients and one special ingredient they could choose themselves, ranging from king prawns to raspberries. Despite some setbacks, each house pulled off two exquisite dishes.
Students provided the judges with 8 exceptional dishes so it was very close competition and the DT department was extremely impressed with the creativity and resilience shown with so few ingredients! Well done to all our sixth form chefs, but particularly Ella (12 Nightingale) and Rom (13 Roosevelt) on the Franklin team, who were awarded first place by the judges for their prawn tempura and caramelised sweet potato side.
