Cooking Steps
• Note: This recipe is designed to be cooked with your child under adult supervision. • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. Peel garlic clove. • Cook potato and garlic in the boiling water over high heat until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the butter, egg and salt to potato. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm. TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled. Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• Meanwhile, thinly slice apple into wedges. Thinly slice brown onion (see ingredients) and spring onion. Little cooks: Help wash the veggies! Don your goggles and have a go at peeling off the onion's outer layer!
• Once the mash is done, spray muffin tins with oil, then fill with mash. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese. • Bake until golden, 15-20 minutes. Little cooks: Join in on the fun by filling the muffin tins with the mash mixture and sprinkling the cheese on top!
• While the mash cups are baking, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken tenderloins until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side.• In the last 5 minutes, add brown onion, tossing, until tender and browned. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the honey, a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. • Add red butter lettuce and apple and toss to coat. Season to taste. Little cooks: Take the lead by combining the ingredients for the dressing and tossing the salad!
• Slice chicken. • Divide chicken, cheesy mash cups and salad between plates. • Serve with tomato relish. Top mash cups with spring onion. Enjoy! Little cooks: Add the finishing touch sprinkling over the spring onion!
