‘A sound health is the product of healthy cooking.’
Students of Class XII of Vidya Vikas Academy donned their chef caps to exhibit their culinary skills in the ‘Cooking Without Fire’ competition held on 5th November 2022. Children participated with zeal and enthusiasm as they doled out nutritious yet delectable delicacies. They were told to present two dishes each from two categories – Category 1: Salad and Category 2: Sandwiches. All the participants had to write the recipe and state the health benefits of the dish that they had prepared. Food items that were displayed were a visual treat and were presented in an artistic style. Dishes were judged based on nutrition and taste, by the judges- Tr. Vismila Rodrigues and Tr. Athira Letha. Judges were amazed by the efforts of the participants and the result was announced amidst tough competition.
