A suitable buffet for the ministerial visit |
with ideas from Al JAlazoon and Leverkusen
|
Mrs Aqlah and Mrs Al Syouri in Al Jalazoon / Palestine and Mrs Rowe in Leverkusen / Germany with their school classes made provision to celebrate a suitable buffet / menu for the minister's visit in Palestine.
What can we offer Minister Wieczorek-Zeul and her delegation during lunch at Al Jalazoon School? German students made suggestions for a European lunch and the Palestinian students did it for a traditional one.
|
Al Jalazoon students explained to Minster Wieczorek-Zeul what they had done so far.
|
Students from the partner school "Berufskolleg Opladen" communicated with their Palestinian partner regarding recipes and ...
|
The students selected e.g. tomato soup as a starter and baklava for dessert.

Baklava
Baklava or baklawa is a rich, sweet pastry featured in many cuisines of
the former Ottoman countries. It is a pastry made of layers of phyllo
dough filled with chopped walnuts or pistachios and sweetened with
syrup or honey.
|
An entire list of starters, main courses and desserts were developed. All the recipes are filed and are accessible for the group. Now the recipes are waiting to be cooked and tested.
Good luck!
