Younger Chef of the Year Award.

[please go to buy book section].
About the Award
This award is for Year 2 pupils (ages 6-7) and is written by teachers for teachers. It is mapped to the Key Stage 1 National Curriculum for ‘Cooking and Nutrition.’ The award also incorporates other curriculum areas such as English, Science, Maths and Geography. The award is a ‘Family/Friend Challenge’, which can be delivered across 6 weeks with 2 hours of teaching time each week.
Children learn basic chef skills, food hygiene and safety, nutrition, the benefits of the Mediterranean diet, blood sugar balance, staying hydrated and how to set the table. Cook at home recipes are also included to engage parents/carers. Each week within the classroom, children create a different course e.g. a dip for the starter with crudités, a sandwich for the main course with a side salad, a dessert and a drink.
The award is also supported by the College of Medicine and Integrated Health and accredited by the Nutritional Therapy Education Commission. Find out more at

Recipes
Spiced Carrot and Pear Cake with Satsuma Frosting
A moist, spiced cake with creamy orange frosting. Good for using any hard, unripe pears in the fruit bowl, as they grate really well. If the pears are soft, just use half the quantity – if they’re too wet they can make the cake heavy.

Potato, Carrot and Sweetcorn Fritters
These little crunchy fritters are perfect for nibbling. Add a little fresh red chilli if you like, and pop them in a lunchbox. Easy to mix and make, and cook in minutes, you can swap the veggies and make your own variations.
