Nutrition AllergensAll our recipes have been nutritionally analysed and the energy (calorie), fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt content for one portion of each recipe is shown. If the recipe says ‘serves 4’, the nutrition information shown is for one quarter of the whole recipe, based on the ingredients and method given. We also state the weight of the portion and how the nutrient content relates to an average adult’s reference intake as a percentage. Reference intakes have replaced Guidelines Daily Amounts (GDAs) and provide a guide to the approximate amounts of energy and nutrients needed by adults for a healthy, balanced diet.
Most of our recipes are for four portions and serve two adults and two children. Children’s servings (not adolescents) would be smaller than adult servings, as their energy and nutrient requirements are lower.
Green
Means the food is low in fat, sugars or salt. If a dish is mostly greens you know straight away that it’s a healthier choice.
The 14 allergens covered are:
in our recipes in our recipes
•celery•cereals containing gluten
(including wheat, rye, barley and oats)•crustaceans
(including prawns, crab and lobster)•eggs•fish• lupin•milk•molluscs (including squid, mussels,
cockles, whelks and snails)•mustard•nuts•peanuts•sesame seeds•soya beans •sulphur dioxide/sulphites
(at levels above 10mg/kg).
Colour coding
The colour coding shows whether each portion of a recipe is high (red), medium (amber) or low (green) in fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt, using the front-of-pack nutrition labelling criteria developed by the Department of Health and Food Standards Agency.
Amber
Means the food is medium in fat, sugars or salt. You can eat foods with all or mostly amber lights most of the time.
Red
Means the food is high in fat, sugars or salt. We should cut down on these foods, eating them less often or in smaller amounts.
There are 14 food allergens which must be declared in the ingredients list if they are present in pre-packed foods (for example by highlighting the allergen in bold text). We’ve taken the same approach with our recipes. Each has been checked by our nutritionists and is labelled to show which of the allergens they contain in the main ingredient list (but not in suggested variations).
It’s important to remember that products can be reformulated, and different brands may contain different allergens. If you are cooking for someone with a food allergy make sure you check by reading the product labels.
If you make food to be served to others apart from at home you must make allergen information available when asked.

Method
Soup
1. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
2. Wash and peel the parsnips in the Let’s Get Cooking way by peeling half of each one then turning it upside down and peeling the rest. Set the peelings aside and save to make the crisps. Chop the parsnip into 2cm pieces.
3. Wash the apple, cut into quarters, remove the core and chop into small chunks.
4. Measure 450ml boiling water into the measuring jug, crumble in the stock cube and stir to dissolve.
5. Gently heat the olive oil in the saucepan on medium heat. Add the onion and garlic until softened for about 3 minutes.
6. Stir in the curry powder.
7. Add the parsnips and apple. Cook for another 3 minutes, stirring to prevent burning.
8. Add the dissolved stock, stir, and bring to the boil.
9. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes with a lid on, so that the liquid does not evaporate. Stir every 5 minutes.
10. When all of the vegetables have softened, ladle a third of the soup into the blender.
11. Holding a tea towel over the lid, blend the soup and pour into a clean mixing bowl or another saucepan.
12. Repeat until all of the soup is blended.
13. Add black pepper to taste (if using).
Parsnip Crisps
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan or gas mark 4.
2. Put the parsnip peelings (from earlier) into a zip seal bag and add 2 x 5ml spoons of vegetable oil, a pinch of chilli powder and some black pepper (optional).
3. Close the bag and gently mix the peelings with the oil.
4. Spread the peelings onto a baking tray and bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove the tray halfway through, turn the parsnips and return to the oven until they are lightly golden and crisp.
5. Sprinkle the parsnip crisps on top of the soup and serve.
Something to try next time•Adding 2 x 15ml spoons of crème fraîche, when
the soup has been blended, will make a really creamy soup (check for dairy allergies). Reheat briefly and gently, as too much heat will make the crème fraîche split.
•Add 1 x 5ml spoon of turmeric instead of one of the spoons of curry powder to give extra depth and a rich yellow colour.
•Instead of the curry powder, add 1 x 5ml spoon of ground ginger for a more subtle flavour.
Prepare now, eat later•Prepare the onions and parsnips the day before
and keep in sealed bags in the fridge.
•Most soups freeze well for up to one month. Cool quickly before pouring the soup into a large freezer bag inside a plastic container. Once frozen, the bag can be removed from the box and stored in the freezer. Defrost thoroughly before reheating.
Skills used include: Washing, measuring, peeling, chopping, boiling/simmering, frying and blending.

Soda BreadSoda bread originates in Ireland and is made every day in many homes throughout the country. It gets its name from the bicarbonate of soda that is used to help it to rise. It is delicious eaten alongside a warming soup, topped with ham for lunch or a light supper, or even spread with marmalade at breakfast.
EquipmentWeighing scales
Baking tray
Large mixing bowl
Sieve
Palette knife
Measuring spoons
Measuring jug
Spoon
Sharp knife

IngredientsServes 8
100g plain white flour (plus extra for sprinkling)
100g plain wholemeal flour
½ x 5ml spoon bicarbonate of soda
½ x 5ml spoon salt
100ml natural yoghurt
75ml semi-skimmed milk
* Presence of allergens can vary by brand – always check product labels. If you serve food outside the home you must make allergen information available when asked.
Top Tips•The bicarbonate of soda will start to work as soon as the liquid
mixes with the dry ingredients, so you need to get the dough into the oven as quickly as possible from this point. If there will be a delay before you can cook it, do not mix the wet and dry ingredients together until you are ready to bake.
• If your hands are very sticky from forming the dough, wash thembeforedoingthefinalmoulding,ascleandryhandswillhelpyou make a good shape.

Method1. Preheat the oven as high as it will go, to
230°C/210°C fan or gas mark 9.
2. Prepare your baking tray by sprinkling it with flour.
3. Tip the wholemeal flour into a large mixing bowl, and sift over the white flour. Add the bicarbonate of soda and salt and mix the dry ingredients together well using a palette knife.
4. Pour the yoghurt into a measuring jug, then top up to 175ml with milk.
5. Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in all the liquid. Mix it together making a figure of eight motion with the palette knife until large lumps form.
6. With your hand, gently bring the dough together. Do not be tempted to knead it, as the air will be pushed out and it will end up heavy and dense.
7. Gently form it into a ball (don’t worry if some bits of flour are left in the bowl) and place it onto the baking tray. Turn it upside down and pat it down so that it has a flattish top (it should still be about 6cm deep).
8. Using a sharp knife, cut a deep cross (about two-thirds of the way through) across the top of the dough. Then, using the tip of the knife, carefully prick small holes in the quarters between the lines of the cross.
9. Put the dough into the oven as quickly as possible and set the timer for 10 minutes.
10. After 10 minutes, turn the oven down to 180°C/160°C fan or gas mark 4 and set the timer for 20 minutes.
11. After 20 minutes, take out the bread, turn it upside down on the tray and return it to the oven for the last 5 minutes. This will help the bottom to cook. Please note the total cooking time is 35 minutes.
12. The bread is ready when it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
13. Remove the bread from the oven and place it on a cooling rack so that the bottom doesn’t go soggy. Cut into wedges to serve.
Something to try next time•For white soda bread, just swap the wholemeal
flour for plain white flour.
•Mix flavourings through the dry ingredients before adding the liquids. 20g of chopped olives, 1 chopped clove of garlic and 20g of chopped sundried tomatoes make lovely flavours.
Prepare now, eat later•This is a quick recipe that doesn’t need to be
prepared in advance; just have all the equipment and ingredients ready and the oven hot.
•Soda bread freezes very well, wrapped tightly in foil and then put in a freezer bag and labelled. Freeze for up to 3 months. Unfrozen the bread will last about 2 days, but you will probably have to slice and toast it on the second day.
Skills used include: Weighing, measuring, sifting, mixing/combining, baking and cooling.

Method1. Cut each chicken breast into 4–6 large chunks.
Now wash your hands after touching raw chicken.
2. Use a clean chopping board and sharp knife to finely chop the onion, red chilli (if using fresh) and garlic. Wash your hands after chopping the chilli.
3. To make the jerk paste, wash and finely chop the coriander and put into the small bowl. Add the chilli powder, allspice, dark brown sugar or treacle, tomato purée, cornflour and red wine vinegar.
4. Using a metal spoon, remove the skin from the ginger and grate finely. Add to the spice mix.
5. Remove the zest of the lime with the grater and squeeze the juice. Add the zest and juice to the spice mix and mix well to form a smooth paste.
6. Using a large saucepan heat the oil over a medium heat. Add the onion, chilli (or chilli powder) and garlic and cook for 2 minutes until soft.
7. Add 1 x 15ml spoon of the jerk paste (about half the amount you’ve made), stirring well and cook for a further minute. Save the other half of the paste and store according to instructions in Prepare Now, Eat Later box.
8. Add the chopped chicken to the pan and stir well to mix with the paste. Cook for a further 2 minutes until the chicken has changed colour from pink to white and then light brown.
9. Add the canned tomatoes and pineapple juice and stir the ingredients in the pan well.
10. Remove the thyme leaves from the stalks and discard the stalks. Add the leaves to the pan and bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
11. Chop the coriander, discarding any tough stems, and sprinkle over the chicken before serving.
Something to try next time•Try substituting 450g of cubed pork tenderloin for
the chicken.
•Add 2–4 chopped spring onions to the recipe at step 13. This will give the dish more colour. To prepare, wash and chop off both ends to remove the roots and the straggly top part of the green leaves. Chop each spring onion into 1cm pieces.
Prepare now, eat later•This recipe should make enough Jerk Paste for
two meals. Once made, the paste can be stored in the fridge, in an airtight container, for up to 3 days. Or it can be frozen in a small container or ice cube trays and, once frozen, transferred to a freezer bag. Use within 2 months and defrost for 15 to 30 minutes before using.
•Cool the Jerk Chicken as quickly as possible, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up 48 hours. Reheat until piping hot and eat immediately.
Skills used include: Measuring, peeling, chopping, grating, squeezing, blending, boiling/simmering and frying.

Method1. Peel and finely chop the onion. Deseed and chop
the pepper into 1cm squares. Deseed and finely chop the fresh chilli (if using). (Wash your hands after touching the raw chilli).
2. Heat the oil in the frying pan and add the onions and peppers. Soften over a medium heat for 3–4 minutes, then stir in the chilli powder or chopped chilli.
3. Open the can of tomatoes and open and drain the can of beans.
4. When the onions and peppers are soft, add the tomatoes and beans.
5. Stir well, bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15–20 minutes. Stir several times and add a little more water if the mixture is very thick.
6. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan or gas mark 6.
7. Cut the slices of bread into 2 equal pieces.
8. Roll the pieces of bread to flatten using a rolling pin.
9. Press the slices well into the bun tins so that the 2 edges stick up. You may need to alternate each slice so that the crusts don’t touch and put 6 in each tin to spread them out.
10. Measure the oil into a small bowl and stir in the chilli powder. Brush the bread shells with the chilli oil.
11. Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden and crisp but be careful not to burn them.
12. Leave to cool for a minute then pile the bread cases onto a serving dish.
To serve:
1. Trim the spring onions and chop finely.
2. Grate the cheese, put into a small bowl and mix in half the chopped spring onions.
3. Cut the avocado into 2 pieces, remove the stone and scrape the flesh into a small bowl. Mash with a fork and mix in the yoghurt. Season with black pepper (if using) and add the rest of the spring onions.
4. Pour the bean mixture into a serving dish.
5. Put the dishes on the table and let everyone make their own spicy tacobreads by filling with the beans, a spoon of avocado yoghurt and a sprinkle of cheese.
Something to try next time• Use a 400g can of baked beans in tomato sauce
instead of the beans. Choose those with reduced sugar and salt. Simmer the mixture until thick but be careful not to break up the beans by stirring too much.
• Instead of a pepper add a chopped medium courgette, 100g of frozen sweetcorn or 100g of sliced runner beans.
• Use a fresh chopped chilli or ¼ x 5ml spoon of dried chilli flakes instead of chilli powder in the filling.
Prepare now, eat later• Prepare the bread cases up to 24 hours ahead
and store in a tin or sealed container when cold. Heat in a hot oven for 3–5 minutes before serving to make sure they are crisp. Or freeze for up to 1 month and reheat in the same way.
• Prepare the bean mixture and allow to cool. Cover and store in the fridge for up to 24 hours before reheating until piping hot.
Skills used include: Weighing, measuring, peeling, chopping, grating, mixing/combining, rolling, boiling/simmering, baking and serving.

Method
Pizza base
1. Sift the flours into the mixing bowl and add the black pepper (if using).
2. Add the yoghurt and stir until well mixed.
3. Tip out onto a clean, floured surface and knead gently until smooth.
4. Divide the dough into 8 or 4 and make into balls.
5. Lightly dust the surface with flour and pat out each ball to the size of a saucer (about ½cm thick).
6. Heat the frying pan over a medium heat and cook the pizza bases 1 or 2 at a time until they are crisp and golden. Turn down the heat once they have started cooking.
7. Remove the pizza bases with a fish slice or tongs and place on a plate or baking tray. Repeat with the rest of the bases.
Tomato topping
1. Wash the pepper, courgette and carrot. Holding the pepper stalk cut the sides away from the centre and discard the stalk. Cut the pepper into bite-sized chunks.
2. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
3. Peel and grate the carrot and grate the courgette.
4. Heat the oil in the saucepan. Add the onion, garlic and pepper and cook for 2 minutes.
5. Add the grated carrot and courgette and cook for a further 2 minutes.
6. Open the tomatoes and baked beans and add to the pan together with the basil leaves or dried herbs, chilli powder or flakes and some black pepper (if using).
7. Stir well and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Making the pizzas
1. Spread the topping over the pizza bases and serve. Dress up your pizza with some of the ideas from the ‘Something to try next time’ section. (For a melted topping, heat the pizzas in the frying pan over a medium heat for 2 minutes until the cheese has melted).
Something to try next time•Dress up your pizza with different topping options:
• 1 x 213g can pineapple chunks or rings in juice
• 1 x 198g can sweetcorn
• 50g baby spinach leaves
• 50g rocket
• Small bunch (10g) basil
•Add 1 x 15ml spoon of chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives or oregano) a crushed clove of garlic or a pinch of chilli flakes to the flatbread dough at step 2.
•Try crumpets, pitta bread or halved bagels or muffins as a base instead of flatbread. Lightly toast them in the frying pan before completing the pizzas.
•Bake the pizzas in a preheated oven at 200°C/180°C fan or gas mark 6 for 8-10 minutes. Alternatively place the pizzas under a preheated grill and grill on high until the cheese is bubbling and the pizzas are hot.
•Freeze any leftover tomato topping for up to 1 month to make another batch of pizzas later or use it as a great vegetarian sauce for wholemeal pasta.
Prepare now, eat later• Cook the bases up to 24 hours ahead or freeze
the cooked bases for up to 1 month. Defrost for an hour before topping.
•Cook the sauce up to 24 hours in advance, cool and store, covered in the fridge. Heat the sauce until simmering before spreading on the bases.

www.letsgetcookingathome.org.ukThis recipe was developed with funding from the Big Lottery Fund. Copyright © Children’s Food Trust LGC070
Skills used include: Weighing, measuring, peeling, chopping, grating, squeezing, mixing/combining, mashing and baking
Method1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan or gas mark 6.
2. Cover a baking sheet with a piece of greaseproof paper.
3. Wash, peel and cut the potatoes into 3cm chunks.
4. Put the potatoes into a saucepan and cover with cold water.
5. Put the pan on a medium heat and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes. Test if the potatoes are cooked by piercing them with a fork. Drain in the colander, return to the pan and mash.
6. Place the salmon in the bottom of another saucepan in a single layer and add the milk.
7. Bring slowly to a gentle simmer, cover with a lid and simmer for 5–10 minutes or until the fish is firm to the touch and cooked in the middle.
8. Remove the salmon with a wooden spoon to a clean bowl and flake with a fork. Keep the liquid.
9. Place the peas and sweetcorn in a small saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil. Simmer for 3 minutes and drain.

13. Add the mashed potato, sweetcorn, peas, chopped herbs, spring onions, oats, lemon zest, black pepper to taste (if using) and half of the cheese to the bowl with the flaked salmon and mix gently with a spoon.
14. Shape four large fishcakes or 12 mini fishcakes and space them evenly on the baking tray. If you find the mixture is too dry to form cakes, add some of the liquid. Sprinkle the fishcakes with the remaining cheese.
15. Bake the large fishcakes in the oven for 30 minutes and the mini fishcakes for 15 minutes.
16. Serve with a wedge of lemon.
Prepare now, eat later•Make the mashed potato and prepare the
vegetables in advance and store, covered, in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Then cook the fish and assemble the fishcakes, ready to bake in the oven.
•You can store the uncooked fishcakes in the fridge for 48 hours or freeze them for up to one month. Defrost the fishcakes thoroughly in the fridge before baking and make sure they are piping hot before serving.
Oaty Salmon Fishcakes
Something to try next time•You could add 50g of cooked broccoli, 50g of
chopped peppers or 50g of grated carrot instead of the peas or sweetcorn.
•Try swapping the fresh or dried herbs for the same amounts of dill, chives or coriander for a different flavour.
•Serve the fishcakes with a dollop of zesty lemon mayonnaise by adding the zest of another lemon to 3 x 15ml spoons of reduced-fat mayonnaise or a fiery chilli mayonnaise by adding 1 x 5ml spoon of chilli powder to 3 x 15ml spoons of reduced-fat mayonnaise.
