Cooking with Confidence:
Our companions have been very busy in the kitchen sharpening up their culinary skills!
Check out some of these tasty dishes prepared by companions on their ‘Cooking with Confidence’ course!
Here is a selection of some of the dishes cooked by companions Robinson and Buddy.
Dishes include:
- Homemade scones
- Cupcakes
- Chicken curry
- Slow Cooker Beef Casserole with Vegetables
- Beef stir fry
- Mushroom Risotto
We spoke to Robinson about their experience on the course, who said:
“Making Fairy cakes was the best thing I made as I thought I could not make them. After making them I realised I could cook other stuff. It was good being able to bang fresh stuff together and make food.” 
“A few days ago (eleven months after the course) I decided to just make meatballs. I put an egg in with some mince, added seasoning, and boom. It tasted great!”
This course was funded by a generous grant from Croydon Relief in Need. A huge thank you to Claire for teaching the Cooking with Confidence course.
