Presentation food

After we did our presentations we had to go listen to the others..
They had this stuff

I had fruit

Only This

This is the food whcih went along with the place that I didn't like.
This

Then This


Then This


And This

Chicken from begining to end

This is just a small chicken I got from the store. I washed it and then did the lemon and seaosnings thing...
Season it..hot and spicy (everything looks gross raw)


Start to bake uncovered and add stuff



Take it out and get a pic
Put it back in covered...


Add spicy sweet BBQ sauce and watch the skin crackle..
Cook uncovered for another 30 minutes


So good

Look what I got :)

I took this quiz where they tell you what food you are like and look what I got....



Brownie- Your like a brownie you melt on people and people stick to you. You are kind and affectionate. Your a good listener.
Whether you know it or not, and people look up to you, and no matter how they act, everybody has a place for you in their heart.


Tee Hee!!!!!!!!!

Secret

Well the time has come
The foodies seem to making the rounds talking about guilty pleasures
I may as well...
I like spam..fried spam


Yes the luncheon meat in a can
I don't ever eat it
But I liked it when I was younger
I stare at spam in the store and want to try it again
I like spam and rice with patchoi and Tomato chow
Spam and fried rice all mixed up together is heaven.
If you have it with roasted sweet peppers OMG.
Like all canned meats thought it's full of Nitrates/Nitrites ....I think I am going to try it just once.
You know they have the indivdual packets now. The single serve...
I know because I stare at the Spam new happenings at the store...
I don't even know why I am ashamed of my love of spam.
I am not going to be anymore.
Who cares if someone thinks I am weird for liking spam...
Judgments be hanged!
I watched the History Channel on the History of Spam and apparently now there is a negative connotation that goes along with buying spam...
Forget it
I like it
It's good.

Rod-izi-o's

Ok I loved it because of the food and the company, but if I never see meat for a long time it will be too soon.

There was a ton of meat and it kept on coming.

On and On

We just laughed and laughed and laughed

Senti got wired off of Shrimp and cocktail sauce.



The whole night was just laugh after laugh....

I had the best time...

Boys are funny.... :)

Valentine Wonderland

I went here and walked in the door
It was like a Valentine Wonderland.

Pink and red and candy with flowers everywhere.
It was like magic.
Then I started to get all twilight zone (Valentine forever with nothing to eat but chocolate)which made me laugh.
I love it.... :)

MMMmmmmm

I had that thing so when I was done I went to this place
I always thought this place would have food that just would not appeal to me so I never tried it before now

I tried
It was so so good
I will do it again

Chicken
Veges
Spinach something (it was like a pie with Phyllo Dough)
A couple potato things.

Sweet egg Tarts

Apparently this is a fairly common Asian dessert. The only thing I have to get is milk :(

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 pinch salt
• 10 tablespoons butter, diced
• 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons cold water

• 1 cup water
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 3 eggs
• 3/8 cup evaporated milk
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
2. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt together. Blend in butter with a pastry cutter until mixture resemble coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, beat the egg with the cold water. Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture to form a soft dough. Wrap with plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Divide dough in half. Roll each half out to 1/8 inch thickness. Using a 3.5 inch (8.5 centimeter) fluted round cookie cutter, cut out 22 rounds. Press dough into lightly greased 3 inch tart pans.
4. In a saucepan over low heat, stir water and sugar until sugar dissolves. Measure 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the resulting syrup and set aside to cool.
5. In a large bowl, combine eggs, evaporated milk and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Strain into reserved syrup and mix well. Pour into prepared tart shells.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is set.

Tartlets

Prof brought this for us.
We thought they would be savory.

We thought they were quiches.
They were not quiches

They were some sweet egg tart thingy's
It was good. I'm gonna try to make it...

A Reminder of The Past

Till I crave it again :)

Very Spicy Curried Lamb

Wanted to make it since I've been eating so much of it lately..
Now I can move on to something else.
You know how it is...
You like something, so you have as much as it as you want, so that you can get tired of it, and move on to the next.
When I'm done I'm done...

Get the lamb
Cut it up

Season it however you want.

I used a variety of seasonings including AmcharMasala and Madras and green curry

Let marinate

Cook- spicy (habanero)

Add small bits of potato to thicken your sauce

Enjoy

Dumplings

Cook whatever meat you want (I curried lamb)
Then add whatever you want..I added blue cheese and made this creamy lamb and bleu cheese mixture

Place in wanton skins
Fold however you want
Boil for exactly 3 minutes
Scoop out
Enjoy

Hummus-BUT

Ok you know you can fill those wonton skins with ANYTHING
So I tried Hummus

Use this (most delicious)

Fill and fold

Shallow fry

Eat Like this- with the spicy curried lamb you made :)

Lentil Soup

Starts like this

Ends like this

Lentils, 1 tbsp Canola Oil, seasonings (anything you want- not the aromatics), one tsp green curry
Boil Till Tender
Simmer
Add Dumplings (filled with meat)
You know mine is spicy right? :)

Rod-izi-o's

Want to try this place out
I passed by a couple times on my way to other places but I finally got the name and looked up a review.
Gonna try it soon :)
It looks yummy
But hmmm I read these reviews...I dont like bright lights in restaurants that are supposed to be nice. In fact they teach that in design school....
Fast food places..bright lights..fast turnover of customers keep it moving.
Nice restaurants: dimmer softer lighting, softer music, not so much distraction...
Now I am not sure....Maybe I'll wait a little bit.
Tell other people about it and have them try it first.

Chocolate Wontons

I looked this up and nobody had the process in pictures. Just the finished product.
get the skins
Lay them flat
Cut up the chocolate- haha my fingers are the same color as the chocolate :)
I used Snickers and Three musketeers and some other type, and then I had peanut butter.

I wanted gooey like Nigella Lawson when she had her fried chocolate bars. If only Mr. Saatchi came with the package :)
Ok paste the peanut butter on the skin

Add chocolate

Fold up

Shallow fry
I made a mistake..I had the heat up too high so by the time I turned round they were a bit dark..
No matter it didn't TASTE burned

But then it was chewy, crisp, gooey, yummy, and hot

Yeh umm put some icing sugar (as if you haven't dug yourself into enough of a sugary and calorie ridden hole)

I only made 4

Pink Grapefruit

This thing is making me feel better.

Thank goodness because I despise medicine

Collab now -Cry later

Done with carbs for a while now.
For the past couple weeks its been on rice and now this...

I can feel in my legs that this is not a good thing

So I'm done...
I thought about Da Brat while I was eating it..Collab now with ya- cry later...
It was good while it lasted though :)

Biogos

Smoked meat
Sausage
Sauerkraut
