Teenagers Tackle ...

So what do you get when you ask the teenagers in the house to tackle cooking dinner? For a start theres' a lot of banter. And then there's quite a bit of mess.  And let's not forget that good old sibling rivalry. And there was, of course, the incentive of getting free rein of the kitchen, including choosing what's for dinner. And behind all of this, a chance for my boys to learn some new cooking skills that go beyond breakfast cereal in its various forms. Everybody's a winner. They started off gently by tackling Easy Oven Chips and before long they were mastering big-hitters like Chilli Con Carne and Bolognese Sauce.
