Soup!!- being something that they had chosen to cook.
The session started with frantic chopping of vegetables before cooking and blending.
It was a great effort by all and although some did not like the taste, as always, anything you cook and eat for the first time is a learning experience. For the simple recipe, see below.

1 tbs oil Heat the oil in a large pan and add the onions, potatoes
1 onion, sliced and leeks. Cook
