TASKS FOR LESSON 1
Task 1
The children from our partner school in Wales sent us a traditional recipe. Read
the recipe and answer the questions that follow:
Ingredients
1 kilo of cherries
1 litre of water
1 kilo of sugar
1 lemon
Equipment
a saucepan
a strainer
a plastic bowl
a grater
Process
Wash the cherries under running water. Use a nail to take out the stones.
Place them in a saucepan and cover with water. Boil for 10 minutes.
Then strain the fruit and take the juice. Grate the lemon peel and take one
teaspoon of the peel. Put the juice, the sugar and the lemon peel into the
saucepan again and boil for another ten minutes. Pour the mixture onto
the cherries and leave to cool. Serve in small plates.
