Cooking up a storm

Wednesday provided the team with a very memorable meal - Sri Lankan dishes cooked by each member of the team (yes, there is photographic evidence for those of you disbelievers!)

The pupils spent three hard hours creating their Sri Lankan feast at a cookery school in Kandy.  The recipes - copies of which will be brought home and shared - imcluded the creation of a jack fruit (kerikose) curry,  sambols, rotis, butter cake, chocolate biscuit pudding, hoppers, fish curry, string hoppers, chicken curry, tuna chilli balls, three bean curry, spicy potatoes, daal and papadams.  A feast fit for a hungry team.

 For some of the team this was a daunting task but everyone enjoyed the challenge.  Working with unfamiliar foods, spices and equipment certainly didn't hold the team back.  Even setting fire to a tablecloth didn't upset the team.

The best authenticate meal of the trip so far.
