“Yes, Chef!” echoed around the hall as Year 6 took part in a Mexican-inspired cookery workshop led by Hampton School’s Head Chef.
Pupils rolled up their sleeves and got to work making their own tortilla-chip nachos, carefully seasoning them with oil, paprika and salt. They then prepared a selection of traditional toppings, including fresh salsa made from tomatoes, onions and peppers, as well as creamy guacamole and sour cream.
With their ingredients ready, the boys assembled their dishes, added a final sprinkle of cheese and placed them in the oven to bake.
The workshop gave the boys the opportunity to develop their cookery skills while learning about the flavours and ingredients that make Mexican cuisine so popular around the world. Best of all, they were able to enjoy their delicious homemade nachos at the end of the session!
