Sallins National School

On Friday, a few weeks ago, we made porridge.

Comments!

“I thought it tasted glorious!”

“I was in taste bud heaven when I tasted this porridge!”

We had a good day together!

The weather forecast is telling us it will be very cold in the week ahead …. so why not warm up with porridge as we did!

Room 18: Keeping  warm on cold days with healthy options!

Last Friday we made tagliatelle pasta in Room 18.

We started with pasta dough, made from flour, salt and eggs!

Look at our slide show to see how we rolled, stretched and cut the pasta into tagliatelle!

Lots of busy work but well worth the effort and the eating! 🙂

THANKSGIVING PANCAKES!

Davey is really interested in reading about world histories!

Thursday was THANKSGIVING DAY in America.

Davey had read about the origin of this FEAST and told us all about the first THANKSGIVING of the pilgrims. We celebrated by making and sharing American Style Pancakes.

Firstly we watched this VIDEO! 

American blueberry pancakes:

You can watch it too! We read the instructions on the video and watched the steps!

 WE WILL NEED

• 200g self-raising flour
• 1 tsp Baking powder & a pinch of salt
• 1 egg
• 300ml milk
• Knob of butter
• 150g pack of blueberries
• Sunflower oil or a little butter for cooking
• golden or maple syrup

Method

• Mix together the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.
• Beat the egg with the milk, make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients.
• Whisk in the milk to make a thick smooth batter. Beat in the melted butter, and gently stir in half the blueberries.
• Heat a teaspoon of oil or small knob of butter in a large non-stick frying pan.
• Drop a large tablespoonful of the batter per pancake into the pan to make pancakes about 7.5cm across. Make three or four pancakes at a time.
• Cook for about 3 minutes over a medium heat until small bubbles appear on the surface of each pancake, then turn and cook another 2-3 minutes until golden. Cover with kitchen paper to keep warm while you use up the rest of the batter.
• Serve with golden syrup and fresh blueberries

In 3rd class we collected the school garden pumpkins and made Jack O’Lanterns and Pumpkin and Leek soup.

All HOME GROWN @ SALLINS NS!

We gathered herbs for our soup at the Aquaponic Tank. We gave our the pumpkin seeds to Kevin to mind. We will plant them in the garden 2018

Some of us prepared the leeks and the spring onions (from the garden) for the soup.

Now we all worked together to make the pumpkin soup in 3rd class.

Happy Halloween from the the 3rd Classes.
