i would just like you all to know that my son, who is 14, won the NZ Beef and Lamb Burger Competition at his school. He is now off to compete in Wellington at the Regional Finals on June 25 and if successful there, then off to Auckland for National Finals. He created his own burger so it is absolutely unique, he based it on a Middle Eastern Theme using lamb mince. He called it the Ali-A-Baba Burger and the judges rated it 19/20. I am very, very proud of him. Have even thought about going to the local Kebab shop, who also do burgers and seeing if they would make and sell it lol. I have tasted it, he has made them for us for dinner and it was absolutely devine

Fabulous news tommi and it is always nice to hear of the young ones who take an interest in cooking and good on you for being so supportive of him.

thank you, i have 3 boys, the eldest is not interested in cooking at all, master 14 loves cooking and master 8 is just starting to take an interest. I try to teach my boys not to look at cooking as a chore, i don't see it as a chore, it is something i would consider a passion for me, and for the boys, it does not have to be a passion but it can be something they enjoy doing rather than something they have to do

Congratulations to your boy, tommi, and it is really good to hear about another Mum who is making sure her children will be well equipped with the basic skills needed to take care of themselves when they reach adulthood. I also think learning to cook should be a pleasure and not just something to be learned " like it or not . "
