Online – ‘Back to Basics’ Easter Camp for Teens

Wednesday 5th April - Friday 7th
5.00-6.30pm

‘Easter Online Cooking Camp’

Since Ciara’s Kitchen was established in 2012 I have taught cooking skills to hundreds of kids, teens and adults. In recent years most classes have been via zoom which works really well as everyone is cooking in their own familiar space. This year I am changing tack slightly.  I want to go back to basics and concentrate on creating building blocks for their future cooking skills. This will be over 3 x 1.5 hour sessions via zoom. I will guide them through each dish and answer all their cooking questions to create confident and independent cooks. We will work hard each day but we will have a bit of craic also and dinner will be on the table by the end!

With this in mind we will cover:

• Pastry Making
• Bread Making
• Cooking Rice
• A Simple Indian Curry
• Meatballs
• Homemade Tomato Sauce
• Cooking Pasta
• Some Classic desserts
• Frying Fish
• Cooking Potatoes
• Cooking Vegetables
• Plus More

We will also cover:

• Seasoning
• Flavour
• Combinations
• Variations
• Plating
• Presentation
• Using knives
• Storage of uncooked & cooked foods
• Food hygiene

As I aim to mould my twins (12) into capable cooks the above is what I feel they require as basic skills to build upon. Once mastered they can be varied and adapted.

Each session will be recorded and everyone who signs up will automatically receive the recording so don’t worry if the ‘live’ time doesn’t suit.

There is no pressure to cook along. They can watch and then cook along with the recording at a later stage.

There are no age restrictions for this course. Ages 0-100 are all welcome to join in!
