Kumara Wedges

We are celebrating Matariki in Room 14 this week. We decided to make kumara wedges. We had a good look at the kumara to see the difference between them and potatoes. They do look a bit like a red potato, but with pointy ends. Kumara grow under the ground like potatoes.

We had four kumara - Tahi, Rua, Toru, Wha - One, Two, Three, Four.

 

We had to cut the kumara up into small pieces. We are always very careful with the knives because they are sharp.

 

We sprinkled seasoning and a bit of oil onto the chopped up kumara and put it in the hot oven.



 



 

Then we waited for the kumara to cook. Yum!
