Sometimes on a Friday afternoon before school finished, mum would come home with paper bags full with mince, soy sauce, vegetables, sweet chili sauce and gheo sa wrappers.She would always start with the meat, throwing it into a pan adding chopped up carrots, broccoli and cabbage.

 

When we got home we would help her with the fun bit, wrapping the gheo sa. Pushing around the edges like frill on dress.First we would get the wrappers place the mixture on them and fold them up.Then mum would put them in a pan just before the sun went down, and they would sizzle like sausages on a barbecue.When they were done she would call up the hall…

“Gheo sa’s ready!” “come and get it”.
