Making the most out of family time during the MCO

Twelve-year-old Aiden Ramalingam learnt how to make sticky chicken wings last week under the guidance of his mother Thevi. Though it was his first effort, the finished wings looked finger-licking good and won the approval of his father Stuart.

Aiden and his sister Rheanna, nine, are enthusiastic young cooks and are taking the time during the movement control order (MCO) to learn as much as they can from their mother, who is an accomplished home cook (check out Thevi’s Kitchen on Instagram and you might want to sign up for home lessons too).
