Hygiene, Health and Safety Tips
•   Always Ask permission before cooking
•   Wear a clean apron.
•   Wear closed-in shoes to protect your feet, in case of hot spills or breakages.
•   Wash your hands before and after handling food.
•   Keep food preparation surfaces clean.
•   Tie back long hair.
•   Store food appropriately.
•   Wash vegetables and fruit under cold water before use.
•   Do not run around the room where food is being prepared.
•   Wipe up food spills immediately.
•   Handle knives and other sharp equipment with care.
•   When using a knife, always cut away from yourself or downwards on a chopping board to
    avoid cutting yourself.
•   Turn handles of saucepans away from the front of the stove when cooking.
•   Use oven mitts when taking hot dishes from the oven or microwave.
•   Wash kitchen and eating utensils after use in hot soapy water. Wash the cleanest dishes
    first, and then the messiest dishes last, so you don’t have to change the dishwater as
    often.

Eggy banana and berry sandwich

1 small banana
 a handful of blueberries or strawberries, or raspberries
 1 large egg, preferably free-range or organic
 1 tablespoon golden caster sugar
 2 slices of medium-cut white bread
 10g butter, at room temperature
 low-fat Greek yoghurt, to serve

1. Peel the banana and mash in a bowl add the berries and lightly crush
2. Crack the eggs into a separate shallow bowl, add the sugar and beat with a fork
3. Put the slices of bread in the sweet egg mixture, and turn after a minute or so so
     they soak up the egg mixture on both sides
4. Pick up the bread and let the excess egg drip off, then pop on a plate
5. Smear most of your fruit mixture onto one slice, leaving a little gap around the edges
6. Put the other slice on top and press down with a fish slice to help them stick together
7. Put a frying pan on a medium heat and add a knob of butter
8. Once melted, add the eggy sandwich and press down with the fish slice to make sure
it’s in even contact with the pan
9. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes, then lift up with a fish slice to check it’s golden brown on the
bottom
10. When it’s looking good, flip over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden and
crisp
11. Transfer to a plate and serve with a dollop of yoghurt or crème fraîche, and the
remaining fruit mixture spooned over the top
