Making Maya foods in Design & Technology

As part of our Maya civilisation topic we have been identifying the foods that Maya people would have eaten.

As well as tasting and smelling these foods we had a go at making two foods that use these ingredients, corn tortillas and guacamole.  We had great fun making the tortillas but learnt a valuable lesson when we discovered that the end product does not always look like the recipe promises even if you think you’ve followed it to the letter! The guacamole however was delicious…..so much so that the children have requested the recipe for home.  Well done year 3 for your peseverance and your willingness to try something new.
