TV appearance for Stromness school cook

Stromness Primary’s Karen Bevan is due to make a TV appearance this evening (Tuesday 22 June).

STV News at Six are hoping to run a piece on Karen’s success story so far in cooking her way to the national final of the School Chef of the Year competition.

Karen, the chosen North East and Scotland contestant, will compete against other regional winners at the final to be held in Birmingham over 12-13 October. She will recreate her Taiwanese-style steamed bun with sticky Quorn pieces and crunchy vegetables for her main and for dessert, a filo pastry spring roll case filled with a light raspberry cream cheese filling.

Organised by the LACA – The School Food People and sponsored by Quorn Professionals, School Chef of the Year is the education catering sector's premier culinary skills competition and school chefs from all over Britain registered to take part in the 2021 competition.
