Nigeria

I love and appreciate my culture.

This is down to the food, music, dresses and history my country Nigeria has had over the 63 years of independence. Our hairstyles date back to slavery. Some traditional hairstyles were used by slaves to hide rice seeds for planting once they escaped.

The food in my country is truly amazing. This is down to the popular Jollof rice and Fufu and Egusi. I truly love Afang and pounded Yam. When my mum prepares this i dash down stairs to enjoy this meal with a bottle of Nigerian Fanta.

Music can be described a my cultural history, brought from West Africa to America and sung daily whilst Slaves did their jobs. Music signified worship, celebration and happiness.

As I crawled next to my grandmother and listened to her great story I fell in love more with my history and culture. When I wear my cultural attires I am filled and overpowered with joy. Blessing (Yr.8)

Thai Food

Thai food is one of my absolute favourite things to eat because I really like spicy food. I do enjoy making it myself at home, but I enjoy going to Thai restaurants. I usually order a red or green curry.

Spicy Food

My Great-Nana’s father came from Sri Lanka so he liked putting spices in his food and when my Nana was younger, she used to sit in the kitchen with her father whilst he cooked curries and stews for their whole family. My Nana had 3 children to feed so she used to love using a great amount of seasonings. This tradition has run through the family all the way to me and I love cooking. When me and my Dad cook we always use lots of spices that we get from the international shops of Spring Bank. Me and my Dad love to make chicken with spicy seasonings. My whole family likes spices in their food - It's a good thing they do! Mia. (Yr.8)

Mozzarella Sticks

My favourite food is mozzarella sticks because they are divine. I normally have them with spaghetti for my tea and I love them so much. Eva (Yr.8)

Risols

It was my grandmother's birthday recently and she still lives in Latvia so she sent me a picture of her food and she was having Risols, like every celebration we have because it's a tradition. In Risols you usually put in boiled potatoes, meat, peas, sometimes onions but I prefer it without, boiled eggs and sometimes carrots which I prefer without as well. You add a lot of mayonnaise and sourcream and salt. In Latvia we use sour cream all the time, we add it to everything. You cut up all the ingredients into small pieces and you mix everything together. Elliot (Yr.11)

Liputa

I love my traditional Liputa clothes. As a mixed race person, I have grown up in a different culture and one thing I have fallen in love with is Liputa.My mother has always dripped herself head to toe with Liputa. Ever since I was young my fascination was her skill of making absolutely gorgeous outfits by herself (I helped of course!). I have wonderful memories of her using me as her mannequin. I loved seeing how, no matter what her day/week had been, whenever her package would arrive her face would light up seeing the gift from her family each Christmas. Kevine (Yr.8)

Sleep

I love to sleep because I like relaxing. I also love cats and dogs because they are cute and adorable creatures. I wish I had one but my family doesn’t want one. I also love Latvian traditional food, the food is this bread with ham bites and butter inside and it's delicious. I love Latvia because my grandparents live there and they didn't have a long time left to live because my grandma is sick and my grandpa is also sick. I really miss them because I don't get to see them. I also love Latvia because I love so many things about it which Hull or the UK can't even compare to. I used to live there with my Mom until we moved to Hull. Diana (Yr.8)

Bitterballen

I am from the Netherlands and so my favourite food is a Dutch dish called Bitterballen that reminds me of my childhood. It is made of meat and gravy and covered in breadcrumbs before being deep fried. You eat it covered in mustard and when you bite in and taste all the gravy it is just amazing. They’re prepared by making a very thick stew thickened with roux and beef stock and generously loaded with meat, refrigerating the stew until it gets firm, and then rolling the mixture into balls, which then get breaded and fried. Bitterballen are very different from the typical meatball, when you bite into one you enjoy a crispy exterior and soft and smooth interior.

Seasonings in Bitterballen stew usually include onions, salt and pepper, parsley and nutmeg. Most recipes include nutmeg but there are also variations using curry powder or that add in finely chopped vegetables such as carrot. Serve with Dijon Mustard. Miss De Bokx (Head of Creative Faculty)

Fish And Chips

My favourite food is good oldfashioned fish and chips. Usually, I go to Bridlington for the day and take the dog for a lovely long walk on the beach. At the end of the day, I have my fish and chips, usually with mushy peas and curry sauce and I always eat them with my fingers because I think it makes them taste even better.
