Evaluation on Thailand Assignment

Evaluation: For this assignment the goal was to combine two countries together with their different cuisines to create a dish that showed both of the countries main flavours. We had 4 weeks to research information for our orals. In our groups of 4 we had to prepare and present two menu items that best described the two countries and their main ingredients. After collecting all the information Mady, Sabrina, Chelsi and I had to make our dishes. The time was adequate for this assignment as I thought we had plenty of time to gather all our research and get organised on what we were making and all the things we would need. Through this assignment I learnt different things about Thailand and India, their main ingredients, cooking styles, culture, and many more things. Unfortunately my partner missed all the lessons we had to cook so therefore I was not able to complete the task as she was going to bring in special ingredients to create our dish. For task 2, even though I wasn’t able to cook Mady and I had researched the country and found that Pad Thai was a popular menu item in Thailand and around the world. We had prepared the dish lessons before we were going to cook and organised all the ingredients we needed to prepare our dish. I found this assignment interesting as it gave Mady and I a chance to learn about our country and how different their meals might have been, weather it’s how they make it, serve it or eat it. I enjoyed researching the country Thailand and it gave me a insight of their amazing cuisine. This task wasn’t a challenge for me as everything was clear and straight forward of what we had to achieve. Throughout this assignment I learnt how to prepare, research and organise every detail to make the task successful. The changes I would make for this assignment was to order everything from the gorcerey store instead of someone bringing it in, I had this problem as Mady was bring in a few things to complete our dish but got very sick and didn’t come to school for a few weeks leaving me not able to do my assignment that was part of my grade. I do think that would be a thing to change as it was unfair on my behalf to have to suffer and not get marked on my work.
