If you've just joined
us on Cook:30 for Kids,
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.33
we're cooking up a
storm in the kitchen today.
00:00:03.37\00:00:06.50
We have Zander and
Caitlin from Tennessee
00:00:06.53\00:00:09.24
and on the menu we have...?
00:00:09.27\00:00:11.07
Omega Asian tofu
and sweet potato salad
00:00:11.11\00:00:13.84
with cashew aioli.
00:00:13.88\00:00:15.44
And a cherry
berry banana smoothie.
00:00:15.48\00:00:18.11
Doesn't it sound yummy?
00:00:18.15\00:00:20.82
Things are going well
00:00:20.85\00:00:22.18
so if you wanna get the
kumara sorry, sweet potato,
00:00:22.22\00:00:25.92
kumara is what they call
in my country, New Zealand.
00:00:25.95\00:00:27.79
Sweet potato out of
the oven, that'd be great.
00:00:27.82\00:00:29.92
And I'm gonna
add some flavorings
00:00:29.96\00:00:31.49
to this wonderful tofu dish,
00:00:31.53\00:00:33.40
so if you wanna
throw in some honey,
00:00:33.43\00:00:35.60
just a drizzle of
honey, it's great.
00:00:35.63\00:00:41.54
Now they will come through,
00:00:41.57\00:00:42.90
just give it a squeeze in there.
00:00:42.94\00:00:44.31
Lovely. It's great, keep going.
00:00:44.34\00:00:47.38
So probably around
about a tablespoon of honey.
00:00:47.41\00:00:49.88
Put in some tamari or soy sauce.
00:00:49.91\00:00:53.72
So you can use
either one of this,
00:00:53.75\00:00:55.08
just gives a nice saltiness,
00:00:55.12\00:00:56.45
the honey give
us some sweetness.
00:00:56.48\00:00:58.85
So give it a little
bit of squeeze over.
00:00:58.89\00:01:02.42
Lovely, just bit more, bit more,
00:01:02.46\00:01:05.13
so it's gonna
sizzle a bit. Cool.
00:01:05.16\00:01:07.86
Give it a bit of a stir
00:01:07.90\00:01:09.23
and add some
sesame seeds as well.
00:01:09.26\00:01:11.23
Just gonna sprinkle out
there some sesame seeds.
00:01:11.27\00:01:16.10
And I'm also gonna put
on some lemon juice as well.
00:01:16.14\00:01:21.61
And we just gonna squeeze over
00:01:21.64\00:01:22.98
some lemon juice
through my fingers,
00:01:23.01\00:01:24.35
give it a little
bit of a stir around.
00:01:24.38\00:01:26.85
And that will make
this tofu taste amazing.
00:01:26.88\00:01:30.02
So just probably add
one table of lemon juice
00:01:30.05\00:01:32.55
and that'll be great.
00:01:32.59\00:01:33.92
Look at that, so we
can tune that down now.
00:01:33.96\00:01:36.42
Just give it a quick stir
00:01:36.46\00:01:38.33
and I will put
this in here shortly.
00:01:38.36\00:01:40.56
So now we're gonna make
a cashew and lime aioli.
00:01:40.60\00:01:43.97
Do you know what aioli is? No.
00:01:44.00\00:01:46.13
It's kind of like a dressing
with garlic effectively,
00:01:46.17\00:01:49.70
and most dressings use
things like lots of oils
00:01:49.74\00:01:52.14
and lots of egg
yolks and things,
00:01:52.17\00:01:53.74
but this is an aioli
that's made of cashew nuts.
00:01:53.78\00:01:56.54
Sounds yummy? Yes.
00:01:56.58\00:01:57.91
So if you wanna measure a
cup and a half of cashew nuts
00:01:57.95\00:02:00.32
in a blender.
00:02:00.35\00:02:01.68
Sorry. Do I keep stirring?
00:02:01.72\00:02:03.05
Keep stirring
so it doesn't burn,
00:02:03.08\00:02:04.42
jut a little more
it'll be finished early.
00:02:04.45\00:02:06.76
Where's the cup?
00:02:06.79\00:02:08.12
All right, just pour in
here, into this cup here.
00:02:08.16\00:02:11.63
Here we go.
00:02:11.66\00:02:12.99
And also under
your chopping board,
00:02:13.03\00:02:14.36
make sure you
have a nice tea towel
00:02:14.40\00:02:15.73
and that stop us from moving,
00:02:15.76\00:02:17.10
so here is
another chef step for you.
00:02:17.13\00:02:18.87
So cup and a half,
00:02:18.90\00:02:20.24
so it's probably
up to about here,
00:02:20.27\00:02:21.60
keep going, keep
going, keep going.
00:02:21.64\00:02:24.77
Oh!
00:02:24.81\00:02:26.14
Okay, put that in, just
don't put all of them in,
00:02:26.17\00:02:27.51
we'll put some back, how's that?
00:02:27.54\00:02:30.78
That's about cup and a half,
there we go, put that in there.
00:02:30.81\00:02:35.05
It's the number one ingredient.
00:02:35.08\00:02:37.29
We're also gonna
put in to measure out
00:02:37.32\00:02:39.85
a teaspoon of coriander,
00:02:39.89\00:02:42.82
so measure out two
teaspoons of coriander.
00:02:42.86\00:02:45.96
I'll put the lime juice in,
put it in, yep, that's great.
00:02:45.99\00:02:50.60
Is this good?
00:02:50.63\00:02:52.10
Yeah, that's looking good there,
00:02:52.13\00:02:53.47
I think that's excellent,
it's looking beautiful.
00:02:53.50\00:02:54.84
I'm done.
00:02:54.87\00:02:56.20
Okay, if you wanna
put some mustard in,
00:02:56.24\00:02:57.57
we got some seedy mustard,
we want about a tablespoon,
00:02:57.61\00:02:59.34
so if you can open
that and squirt it in.
00:02:59.37\00:03:02.08
You can turn the
heat off there now,
00:03:02.11\00:03:03.95
we'll turn it to off.
00:03:03.98\00:03:05.31
That should be
finished going with the tofu.
00:03:05.35\00:03:06.68
Should I put it in there?
00:03:06.72\00:03:08.05
Just squeeze it in and then
I'll tell you where to stop.
00:03:08.08\00:03:10.42
Squeeze it in, lovely,
seeded mustard is nice.
00:03:10.45\00:03:12.82
Yep, that's about right.
00:03:12.85\00:03:14.29
Throw in a water, we
got half a cup of water.
00:03:14.32\00:03:17.93
And I'm gonna also
throw in some lime juice,
00:03:17.96\00:03:22.30
I'll just squeeze it
in here to around about
00:03:22.33\00:03:25.63
three tablespoons of lime juice.
00:03:25.67\00:03:29.10
It's a really, really
nice limy kind of flavor.
00:03:29.14\00:03:32.14
I'm gonna put in a
half teaspoon of salt.
00:03:32.17\00:03:34.81
There's a little thing there,
00:03:34.84\00:03:36.18
so putting half of one of those,
00:03:36.21\00:03:39.15
and I think that's all
the ingredients we have
00:03:39.18\00:03:41.18
for the dressing.
00:03:41.22\00:03:42.65
Perfect? Yep, perfect.
00:03:42.68\00:03:44.49
All right, and
a clove of garlic,
00:03:44.52\00:03:45.85
so put a clove of garlic
here so put them in as well.
00:03:45.89\00:03:48.52
And let's put the lid
on and let's go blend.
00:03:48.56\00:03:51.63
Hit the go button.
00:03:51.66\00:03:53.86
Whoa, oh.
00:03:53.90\00:03:55.73
This is a lovely
dressing to have on any salad,
00:03:55.76\00:03:57.93
it's really, really healthy.
00:03:57.97\00:03:59.37
Keep going, keep
going, keep going.
00:03:59.40\00:04:02.30
Look at that.
00:04:02.34\00:04:03.94
I think that
should be nearly done,
00:04:03.97\00:04:05.31
little bit more.
00:04:05.34\00:04:09.48
Okay, stop it.
00:04:09.51\00:04:11.65
It's little bit thick,
00:04:11.68\00:04:13.01
we might add
little bit more water.
00:04:13.05\00:04:14.75
So we just add
bit more water in here
00:04:14.78\00:04:16.22
and if you're wanna go again.
00:04:16.25\00:04:17.59
Just a little bit,
just so it has a nice
00:04:17.62\00:04:19.05
kind of thick kind
of pouring consistency.
00:04:19.09\00:04:20.96
So hit the go button.
00:04:20.99\00:04:23.83
Lovely, excellent.
00:04:23.86\00:04:28.63
Perfect, yep. Turn it off.
00:04:28.66\00:04:30.73
So we got a
beautiful lovely dressing here
00:04:30.77\00:04:32.57
that we can use to drizzle over
00:04:32.60\00:04:35.04
our salad we're
about to do shortly.
00:04:35.07\00:04:38.01
So that's the same with
salad, we've done everything,
00:04:38.04\00:04:39.81
we got the base there,
00:04:39.84\00:04:41.18
so if you wanna put
some of the kumara on there,
00:04:41.21\00:04:42.81
just kind of grab it
and sprinkle it over.
00:04:42.84\00:04:45.01
It's little bit hot
00:04:45.05\00:04:46.38
so we just kind
of throw it over,
00:04:46.41\00:04:48.82
and again you wanna
just sprinkle it over
00:04:48.85\00:04:53.49
and I'll just, I'll use
this, this is about hot,
00:04:53.52\00:04:54.86
I'll just put in
this over like this,
00:04:54.89\00:04:57.29
and we just
spoon this lovely tofu.
00:04:57.33\00:05:02.63
Oops, dropped one.
00:05:02.66\00:05:05.13
Look at that salad.
00:05:05.17\00:05:08.17
That's a great salad.
00:05:08.20\00:05:09.77
So just remove the tray here.
00:05:09.80\00:05:15.64
And what else goes on it?
00:05:15.68\00:05:17.01
We're gonna finish
it off with some mint,
00:05:17.05\00:05:18.38
so if you wanna
grab the mint there.
00:05:18.41\00:05:20.55
We're just gonna grab some mint.
00:05:20.58\00:05:22.08
Mint is a lovely
flavor for salads.
00:05:22.12\00:05:24.32
I'm just gonna chop it
up quickly just like that,
00:05:24.35\00:05:27.16
just chop it up
00:05:27.19\00:05:30.03
a nice big chunks
and sprinkle it over.
00:05:30.06\00:05:32.39
Actually, before we do
we're gonna put the aioli over
00:05:32.43\00:05:34.70
and what we do is
just grab the aioli
00:05:34.73\00:05:36.43
and we just drizzle it
00:05:36.46\00:05:39.50
like that so you get nice
look, doesn't it look beautiful
00:05:39.53\00:05:42.57
with the just nice
streaky bits there?
00:05:42.60\00:05:46.01
There you go.
00:05:46.04\00:05:47.64
And we put this on
top, a sprinkle of the mint
00:05:47.68\00:05:50.55
just like that, just
drop it from the height.
00:05:50.58\00:05:53.01
And doesn't it look like
00:05:53.05\00:05:54.38
that would be the
most amazing salad ever,
00:05:54.42\00:05:55.82
what do you think?
00:05:55.85\00:05:57.19
It looks
beautiful. Well done, guys.
00:05:57.22\00:05:59.65
So we just put that to the side
00:05:59.69\00:06:01.16
because we've only got
a couple of minutes left
00:06:01.19\00:06:02.69
and what are we making next?
00:06:02.72\00:06:04.13
Smoothie. The smoothie, yes.
00:06:04.16\00:06:06.39
So we'll just
use another blender.
00:06:06.43\00:06:08.16
So if, you guys, wanna use,
we're gonna use some berries
00:06:08.20\00:06:09.60
from the fridge and the milk
and we can start the smoothie.
00:06:09.63\00:06:15.27
Have a quick tidy up here,
00:06:15.30\00:06:17.04
it's always good to
keep a nice tidy counter.
00:06:17.07\00:06:20.78
So making a
smoothie is really easy,
00:06:23.85\00:06:25.91
once you've made one
they're really, really good.
00:06:25.95\00:06:28.05
So, Zander, if you can
just put some berries in,
00:06:28.08\00:06:31.32
so probably around
about a cup of berries each,
00:06:31.35\00:06:33.25
so get you a little serving
cup that you can put them in.
00:06:33.29\00:06:37.43
So got a cup each.
00:06:37.46\00:06:38.99
And if you can grab two bananas
from over there and peel them
00:06:39.03\00:06:41.90
and throw them in as well.
00:06:41.93\00:06:43.50
So all it is to make a
smoothie is just putting fruit
00:06:43.53\00:06:46.43
and some milk into a blender.
00:06:46.47\00:06:49.10
And frozen fruit is really good
00:06:49.14\00:06:50.71
because it gives a
really nice kind of icy taste
00:06:50.74\00:06:53.27
and it's very nice and thick,
00:06:53.31\00:06:54.64
just probably pour it out
into the cup will be easiest.
00:06:54.68\00:06:57.81
And we're using
blueberries and cherries today,
00:06:57.85\00:07:01.22
but you can use any
kind of fruit that you want.
00:07:01.25\00:07:03.92
The banana adds
a lot of thickness
00:07:03.95\00:07:05.49
and little bit of
sweetness as well.
00:07:05.52\00:07:07.59
Yep, throw that in. Nice one.
00:07:07.62\00:07:10.96
You got them all
in the cup, well done.
00:07:10.99\00:07:13.29
Yep, just put them in like that.
00:07:13.33\00:07:15.80
So two bananas,
two cups of berries.
00:07:15.83\00:07:18.57
And I'll put the milk in,
so any milk that you want,
00:07:22.10\00:07:25.01
I'm using almond milk today.
00:07:25.04\00:07:27.01
So put around about
half of almond milk in.
00:07:27.04\00:07:32.01
You may have to adjust the
amount of liquid you put in
00:07:32.05\00:07:35.18
because
sometimes that may end up
00:07:35.22\00:07:37.19
being too thick or too thin.
00:07:37.22\00:07:38.92
We get out there.
Oh, lovely, perfect.
00:07:38.95\00:07:40.49
Look at those
beautiful cherries.
00:07:40.52\00:07:43.66
Okay, put the lid on
00:07:43.69\00:07:47.13
and press the go button.
00:07:47.16\00:07:48.63
Ready? Three, two, one, go.
00:07:48.66\00:07:52.83
Whoa, oh.
00:07:52.87\00:07:54.20
Look at that go.
00:07:54.24\00:07:55.57
Okay, you can push stop.
00:08:03.81\00:08:06.65
And there's a
smoothie ready to go
00:08:06.68\00:08:08.25
so I'll just sort of
pour it in the glasses
00:08:08.28\00:08:10.25
and as you can see
that is gonna be an amazing,
00:08:10.29\00:08:12.62
delicious,
smoothie, check it out,
00:08:12.65\00:08:16.26
cherries and blueberries.
00:08:16.29\00:08:19.06
So what do you think, guys?
00:08:19.09\00:08:20.43
You're looking
forward to having that?
00:08:20.46\00:08:21.80
Yes. Yes.
00:08:21.83\00:08:23.16
That's great.
00:08:23.20\00:08:24.53
Oops, that one's a little bit
on the low side but never mind.
00:08:24.57\00:08:26.13
So there we have.
00:08:26.17\00:08:27.50
Look all those
beautiful salad here
00:08:27.54\00:08:29.07
with all those
yummy, yummy ingredients.
00:08:29.10\00:08:31.04
We've got a smoothie here.
00:08:31.07\00:08:32.41
Do you think, you
guys, can make that again?

Yes. Yes.

this cooking is really easy.
00:08:37.91\00:08:39.25
Give it a go, the first time
00:08:39.28\00:08:40.62
it might take a
little bit longer
00:08:40.65\00:08:41.98
but stick at it
00:08:42.02\00:08:43.35
and you get some really,
really good cooking skills.
