MASTERCHEF JUNIOR COOKING RECIPES.
What’s the food you enjoy the most? Do you prepare it yourself or does it someone make it for you?
Imagine that you’ve got foreign guests at home, as you will probably have very soon or some time you’re going to have, and you want to show them a little traditional and gastronomic specialities from your country or family region ( or the food you most enjoy). The main thing is that you want to prepare the food yourself, so you need a good cooking recipe.
Now is the time to do it. Write and illustrate as you wish, presentations, films of yourself preparing the food, photos in a word ect... YOUR FAVOURITE PERSONAL COOKING RECIPE.
The instructions must be clear and in a proper English so your friend could prepare the dish himself when he goes back to Britain. (Don’t forget to upload your reciepe in your personal course portfolio).
