Everyone can recall home-cooked dishes that taste the best when made by their mother. Al-Futtaim IKEA recognises that the best cooks in the world are mothers and invited mothers in Abu Dhabi to take part in a fun cooking competition last month.
THE CHALLENGE
Two teams, each consisting of six mums, had to work together to recreate two dishes from Al-Futtaim IKEA Yas Mall’s culinary team - Smoked Salmon and Red Cabbage and a Plant Ball and Salad Wrap. Sounds straightforward? Not when six ladies in each of the teams had just 30 minutes to absorb the details of two separate recipes, study the premade examples of the dishes and decide which of the six ladies in the team would work on which elements, as well as how much time each step would take. Oh, and they had to execute the dishes to the exacting standards of The Judge, the man in charge of the sumptuous food offerings at Al-Futtaim IKEA Yas Mall’s popular family restaurant.
