Cooking Session 9: Pasta Mania

In this Licence to Cook practical session students make a savoury sauce and combine it with pasta to make a simple dish. Students start to prepare and cook items simultaneously, learning about timing and kitchen organisation.

Key skills include weighing and measuring, use of the hob (boiling, simmering), grating, making a roux sauce, cooking pasta and draining hot water, and gratiné. Writing frames are provided for students to record their own top tips and the skills they use.
