Mediterranean Lunch
For the Mediterranean Menu, the Advanced students must design and cost out a menu to a budget which includes a fish dish (the need to fillet the fish) freshly made pasta (ribbon or ravioli) and a tempting dessert. The students are able to invite a guest to join them for this gastronomic luncheon which they prepare during the morning.
Here are some of the dishes prepared by our students.
•Entreé - Pan seared gurnard, barley salad with olives, capers and salsa verda
•Entreé - Chicken and mushroom ravioli with vin blanc sauce
•Main - Braised beef cheek pappardelle, asparagus and grilled parmesan
•Main - Pan seared fish with pinenut crumb, pea puree, grilled heirloom tomatoes, parmigiano polenta and basil olive oil
•Dessert - Sfouf (Lebanese turmeric cake) made with semolina, turmeric and almonds and walnuts
•Dessert - Baklava served with rose petals and chocolate shards and Chantilly cream
