Dinner preperations

The children in House of Hope are divided into teams who take turns helping out in the kitchen. In this way they learn how to cook their traditional Shan food and the resposibilities that come with running a big house hold.
PS: Did you know that the 47 children & 6 staff at House of Hope eat approximately 800 kilos of rice each month??



Here Nahum's (Sai Naw Moeng) team help out frying fish caught by the oldest boys earlier that day.




















Susan's (Tzaarm Noon) team collect herbs to go with the fish - all organically grown!
























These herbs are only to be found in the cold season. They are very nutricious - a natural way to ensure that the children get sifficient intake of vitamins. The herbs are grown, watered and collected by the children in this little garden right outside our kitchen!
