Cheesy Pasta Rolls I Can Cook

.

I can cook!

I can cook...

With you!

Hello! Oh, it's good to see you.

I'm just getting everything ready to go on a journey.

I hope that you're going to come with me and make some new friends.

BELL PINGS Ah-ha!

Hello, Katy. I love riding on my scooter.

My favourite food is cheese and pasta.

Katy, can you cook with me, please?

I can. And that sounds like loads of fun and you can cook with me too!

Let's pack up and go!

# Off on a journey And I'm coming to you

# It's going to be busy and there's lots to do

# Get ready to join in and have fun

# Let's cook a feast for everyone! #

Well, I've got my gear and I am ready to do some scooting,

but where's Jada? ..Oh, there you are!

-Hi, Jada!

-Hi, Katy.

-So, Jada, are these your friends?

-Yes.

-What's your name?

-Kia.

Freya.

-And what's your name?

-Fatima.

Well, it's fantastic to meet all of you.

I'm really excited. What are we going to do today, Jada?

Make something with cheese and pasta and ride on our scooters.

I have the perfect recipe for us to make. Shall we do some cooking?

ALL: Yeah!

Come on, let's go. This way!

Welcome to my outdoor kitchen! Who's excited?

ALL: Me!

Me too! Who wants to know what we're going to cook today?

ALL: Me!

Well, today we're going to cook cheesy pasta rolls. Look at this.

ALL: Wow!

Smells good, doesn't it? ALL: Yeah!

Before we get started, we've got to do something really important.

What do you think it is?

ALL: Wash our hands!

Of course, we have to wash our hands. Let's go, everyone.

# Roll up your sleeves Give your hands a wash

# With slippy dippy soap

# Splish, splash, splosh!

# Have you done your hands? Washed and dried?

# Sleeves rolled up Aprons tied

# What can you do? I can cook! #

Right then, everyone, let's get started

on our cheesy pasta rolls.

Are you ready? ALL: Yeah!

Now the first ingredient we need is chilli flakes.

Chilli flakes will add a really great flavour.

They will add some kazaam to our recipe! Can everyone go, "Kazaam"?

ALL: Kazaam!

We need a pinch of chilli flakes, and for that, we need our pinchy parrot.

So make a pinchy parrot. You put your thumb down

put our two fingers down on top

and you do a really big squawk like this, "Squawk! Squawk! Squawk!"

And then take a pinch of chilli flakes with your pinchy parrot

and put it into this cup of chopped tomatoes.

We're going to wipe our hands.

Chilli flakes have a really strong flavour.

We don't want them anywhere near our eyes.

Then we're going to take a spoon and mix them in.

What's happened to all the chilli flakes, Freya?

-They've gone into the tomatoes.

-Yeah, they've disappeared!

Next we need our pinchy parrots again!

Where's your pinchy parrot?

ALL: Squawk! Squawk! Squawk!

They are loud parrots.

Take a pinch of pepper

and we're going to put this into this bowl of ricotta cheese.

This is a really lovely cheese.

It's really smooth and creamy.

I wonder what ingredient we need next for our cheesy pasta rolls?

What's next?

Well let us see if you can guess what it could be.

So, we've got a lime,

we've got some mint and some raspberries.

What would you choose for our cheesy pasta rolls?

I'll give you some clues.

The special ingredient is green.

Well, raspberries are red.

So let's take that one away for a start.

Here's another clue.

The special ingredient is green and it's a herb.

Limes are green,

but they're not a herb, are they?

They're a fruit. So let's take that one away as well.

So that leaves us with mint.

We need some mint for our cheesy pasta rolls.

Mint is something you can easily grow

and you don't even need that much space.

The first thing you need is a little tray like this

and then put some soil inside of it. You need to keep the soil wet.

So I'm going to give it a little water first of all. Give it a drink.

Once that soil has soaked up all of the water,

we're going it need our mint seeds, which we've got over here.

And look at these.

They are so, so small!

Now we're going to sprinkle the seeds all over the soil.

You can't even see them once you spread them. There we go.

Then we cover the seeds with all the soil

and we need to keep them really nice and warm.

So we're going to get some clingfilm and cover them up.

It's a bit like making a little greenhouse.

And after a few weeks, tiny little green shoots

will start to sprout through the soil, like these here.

Can you see them?

Then after about a month,

you'll get a lovely big mint plant, like this one here.

Perfect to use on our cheesy pasta rolls.

Here's the mint that I've grown

and we're going to use it in our recipe.

Rub the mint leaf between your fingers, like this, and smell it.

ALL: Mmm!

Amazing, isn't it? We've got a cup of spinach leaves over here

and we're going to count five mint leaves into our spinach.

So let's count, ready?

A-one, two, three...

four, five.

And now it's time to do some snipping.

To do snipping, what will we use, girls?

ALL: Scissors!

But remember - be safe with scissors.

Everyone knows that we point them down towards our...?

ALL: Toes!

Got it! Let's get snipping!

It smells minty.

It smells minty!

You can do some snipping with us at home too.

Get your scissors like this and go... Snip, snip, snip.

Keep snipping, everyone.

Snip. Snip. Snip.

Once you've finished snipping,

you can put the mint leaves and spinach leaves

into your bowl of cheese.

ALL: Put the leaves in the cheese!

When the scissors touch the bowl,

-it sounds like music.

-It does, doesn't it?

Then we're going to give everything in that bowl

a good mix with our spoon.

Whizz it around, everyone. Remember to do this at home.

Get your bowl... Got it?

Get your spoon... Got it?

And mix, mix, mix.

Next, we're going to use this -

it's a pasta sheet.

Have you ever had pasta like this before?

Yeah, I have. I've used it for lasagne.

It's really tasty, isn't it?

We'll take this pasta

and we have to fold it in half, like this. Can you see?

Then you can break it into two pieces.

It looks like two little wings. That's it.

So we're going to spread our cheesy mixture all over these pasta sheets

and we're going to take a really big spoonful of our cheesy mixture

and put that spoonful on top of one of the pasta sheets.

Then get another big spoonful and put that on top of the other pasta sheet.

You need the same amount on each sheet.

I can see little green bits.

So who is ready to do some spreading?

ALL: Me!

We're going to spread our mixture over the pasta sheets

using a knife. Now, some knives can be sharp,

so you do have to be really careful,

but this is just a table knife,

the kind of knife you might be used to using at home

and it's fine for us to use.

So, girls, are you ready to do some spreading?

ALL: Yeah!

Let's get going. It's a bit like spreading butter on toast.

-Have you done that before?

-I have.

It's like painting a pretty picture.

It looks like you're making a snow picture,

and the leaves fall down in the snow.

Like a house, but it hasn't got a chimney, so it looks like a tower.

A very pretty house with lots of patterns over it.

Once you've finished spreading, everyone,

we are going to do some rolling.

So let's roll up...

roll down...

and then roll it all around.

Why don't you join in with the rolling dance?

Roll up, roll down...

and roll it all around!

Who's ready to roll their pasta?

ALL: Me!

I'll show you how to do it. We have to be careful doing this.

So get your fingers on the top bit

and roll it up so it looks like a mini rolling pin.

Look at this. Can you see?

And the pasta might break a little bit,

but that's fine. Don't worry about that.

It's a bit fiddly, isn't it, Jada?

It's got bigger and bigger.

That's perfect. That absolutely great.

Don't worry if it squeezes out the end.

That's probably going to make it taste even better.

OK, the next thing we're going to do is take our spoon

and scoop up some of our tomato mixture

and put it into your dish. You don't want to use all of it, though,

only half of it, and spread it around at the bottom of the dish.

OK, and now it's time to put our lovely cheesy pasta rolls

into their tomato bath!

There's one, and then you can scoop up the rest of the tomato

and put it on top, but make sure you cover all of the pasta rolls.

So cover them all up like a tomato blanket.

And who's ready for the final part?

ALL: Me!

We're going to take some cheddar cheese and sprinkle it on top.

Sprinkle! Sprinkle! Sprinkle! GIRLS: Sprinkle! Sprinkle! Sprinkle!

-Finished!

-Finished!

Everyone say "cheese"!

ALL: Cheese!

Well, that's it, girls, you've done it.

You've put all the ingredients together for your cheesy pasta rolls,

all by yourself. Now it's time to put them in the oven,

But remember, ovens are hot, so don't go near.

Ask a grown-up to help you here.

# Now we've cooked with you

# And had lots of fun

# Let's tidy up and think of all the things that we have done! #

-There was...

-Mixing.

-Spreading.

-Rolling!

-And...

-Snipping!

# Clearing any mess Putting things away

# Is always fun to do at the end of the day! #

Look, girls, our food's all cooked in the oven.

It smells absolutely amazing. Let's have a look at yours, Freya.

It looks like a sausage roll.

Yes, a tomato sausage roll, but there's no sausage in it.

And what happened to yours in the oven?

The cheese is all melted and the tomato has gone all sloppy.

Let's have a look at yours, Jada.

Jada, it looks brilliant.

-What's this bit sticking up here?

-The cheesy pasta.

The cheesy pasta! Can you point to where the mint is?

That's the baby leaf,

that's the mummy leaf and that's the daddy leaf.

Oh, yes! Are you looking forward to eating it?

This is making me extremely hungry! Is it making you hungry too?

ALL: Yeah!

Let's save our food for this afternoon.

We travelled to you, we've cooked and had fun.

Now let's have a party, with everyone!

ALL: Yeah!

Come on, you can come with us. Let's go, girls.

Come on, let's go share our food.

Look at that! Did you make that? Wow, it's really good.

You've done a good job.

-Did you make this yourself?

-Yeah.

It looks nice. How did you get the mint?

Katy grew it.

Katy grew it? Wow!

Mmm, that's yummy. That's delicious.

What can you taste? Is it the chilli?

Hot!

Shall I get the fire engine in?

Nee-naw, nee-naw, nee-naw!

So, what can you do?

ALL: I can cook!

With me and...

ALL: With you!

And if you would like to make some cheesy pasta rolls,

you can find the recipe on our website.

Now, we've let our food go down so, who wants to ride on our scooters?

ALL: Me!

Come on, girls. Let's go.

They're over there.

Let's put our helmets on. All right? Everyone ready?

ALL: Yes!

Hands in and let's say, "Let's go."

ALL: Let's go!

Let's play sharks and fishes.

I've got to catch all the fish -

you're all the fish and I'm the shark! Go! Go! Go! Go!

ALL SQUEAL
