During the circuit breaker, a group of grade 11 students Anna, Keira and Julia decided to collaborate on a healthy cookbook initiative. Their mission: to provide an opportunity for students and parents to enjoy cooking together.
“We have always had an interest in home cooking and enjoy the simplicity of it. During the circuit breaker, we found ourselves in the kitchen more often because we started to realise the importance of living a healthy lifestyle - and of course that starts with a healthy diet,” the students explained.
The recipes chosen are easy to make, delicious, child-friendly and nutritious. “Not being able to travel has been a huge disappointment so we thought a nice substitute would be sharing different recipes from around the world instead. This way families can ‘travel’ in their own kitchens and experience different cultures through cuisines.”
The recipes come from a range of different cuisines such as Italian, French, Middle-Eastern, Indian and Japanese. “We only included recipes that we had the chance to taste - and love! In short, the cookbook is both a cultural experience and a collection of our own personal favourites.”
Learning about the fun facts associated with each dish and cuisine was one of the most interesting parts the students experienced in creating the cookbook. “There are some crazy and funny facts about the dishes in th cookbook, but we don’t want to spoil the fun so if you are interested, you need to read our book!”
