Recently I've been teaching my autistic, 18 year old daughter to cook a few family favourite dishes. I've found it difficult to find recipes for her to follow because they all have lots of jargon or assumed knowledge in. She didn't do much secondary school, so she didn't learn much in Food Tech and therefore some terms are confusing for her i.e. "leave to stand" etc. So, I have started writing out some recipes, for her to follow, in a autistic friendly style so that there are more pictures to refer to and more explanation which I hope will be easier for her to follow.
Then I thought why not share with you lovely people.
Each month I aim to add a new one but if you have any you would like to share please email me at cathryn@appeer.org.uk.
I hope you enjoy them, Cathryn x
