A new set of victims arrived at the school on Saturday - Helene with Sue and Jean, Naomi and Alex. Several of them had been given the day as a Christmas present (a VERY good present hahaha). As the name suggests this class is all about giving you ideas for when you're brain dead after a hard day at work/chasing kids and need some sustenance.

On the menu:
- Lamb tagine with herby couscous
- Prawn and avocado linguine
- Crispy pork belly with fennel, served with braised cabbage
- Lemon and garlic chicken
- Cardamon and banana raita for puds
It was went swimmingly, everyone's dishes turned out really well. The Lamb Tagine came out top in the opinion poll.
The dessert got a mixed review, memories of biting into whole cardamon pods and just a plain old dislike of raisins, put a couple off. But we agreed that a substitute for cinnamon and leaving out the evil raisins would be perfectly acceptable.
Alex and Helen put the finishing touches to the dessert. Lovely sprinkling action.
Sorry everyone but I failed to get a photo of Alex in his cute kitten apron, d*mn! Maybe next time. Note to other men attending, if you wear your girlfriend's apron to class you will get stick for it.
