Royal Navy Cooks<br />

Wednesday 30 th January <strong>2013</strong><br />

Chefs from The Royal Navy spent a day’s visit to<br />

<strong>Whitley</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> to teach GCSE Catering students<br />

how to create a main meal for fellow Navy officers.<br />

Students made a chicken curry dish with pasta. They<br />

were also taught about the benefits of healthy eating<br />

required for the officers due to the physical work they<br />

conduct.<br />

Students all had a very enjoyable day working under<br />

the pressures of a real chef.<br />

All students were also introduced to a secret ingredient<br />

required in a curry dish…. which was a coconut<br />

chocolate bar. Due to shelf life and accessibility of<br />

ingredients when chefs are working on the submarines<br />

they need to have long life products. The coconut<br />

chocolate bar added a sweet but creamy flavour to the<br />

curry pasta.<br />
