The whole class has access to this wiki and all of you can add ideas and suggestions. Please keep comments constructive and on topic. If this works well, I may set up more of these in the future for our class.

Add any recipes that you would like to see served at our feast.

drumsticks

coat some chicken drumsticks (they show 5, but it can vary) in a mixture of flour, caraway seed, 2 tsps cumin seeds, crushed in a mortar and pestle (or a hammer and plastic baggie), 2 tsps sweet paprika and 2 bay leaves. Toss the drumsticks in the mixture (in a plastic bag), add oil, toss again and leave for the flavours to mingle for a least two hours, or overnight.

Make a bed of the marinade in a roasting pan, place the chicken on top and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a skewer pushed into the thickest part releases only clear juice.

honeyed egg

Ingredients

3 tbsp honey
4 eggs
275 ml milk
25g butter
1 tbsp olive oil
Twist of black pepper

Method

Beat together the eggs, milk and oil. Pour a little olive oil into a frying pan and heat. When this is sizzling add the omelette mixture. Agitate with a fork until the mix starts to solidify (this will make for a lighter omelette). When thoroughly cooked on one side turn the omelette over and cook on the other side. Fold in half and turn out onto a plate.

Warm the honey and pour over the omelette. Fold this over once more and cut into thick slices. Sprinkle with black pepper and serve.
