You are going to be a TV chef!

Choose your favorite recipe, you can cook. Then find the ingredients you need and make a video with your smartphone (and the help of an adult) to show how to make the recipe. Cut any cooking time. The video must last 5 minutes, maximum. You can work in pairs if you prefer.

Watch this video as a model:
