Roasted Chicken Meal

due to some special reason
i'm not working today
it's a gloomy day whole day
even the sky is mourning...
.
spent nearly whole day preparing this big dinner
upon special request by my snakie
he complain tat i always serve tiny piece of chicken
so this time i purposely got these HUGE ones
until he ask whether these are chicken or turkey?!
*tsk*
.
didn't do any research on this dish
i did it my way again:
*clean up the chicken
*discard those extreme fat
*poke the meat with tiny holes
*marinate with pepper, Worcestershire sauce, honey,
Italian spices, chopped garlic & ginger
*stand for the longer the better
*spread a thin layer of olive oil on foil
*layer some roughly chopped potato & carrot
*then the chicken
*set the oven to 175'c
*roast 20-30 min covered with foil
*another 20 min uncovered
it's really tender & juicy!
.
special requested dinner menu:
roasted chicken + stir-fried veggie + ABC soup
let's change venue for dinner tonite~
a dinner tat goes with Monsters vs Aliens
*deepest condolence to the dearly missed*
願您 一路走好

3 Nov 2009 の 三菜一汤

i made dinner again
it has been ages
since i last cook a proper meal
.
this dinner
was to clear off the ingredients from the fridge
.
Brussels Sprout from my future lai-lai
did some study before cooked it
in chinese it's called 抱子甘蓝 o_O"

*boiled it (added salt & oil in water) for few mins
*chop some garlic
*fry them with butter
*add in the boiled sprout n sauté for a while

Bold 西红柿炒蛋
Stir-Fried Tomato Omelette in Tomato Sauce
过水油麦 Boiled Romaine Lettuce
西洋菜排骨汤 Watercress Pork Rib Soup
我想说话:
这顿饭
让我想起一些我不愿意想起的事
和一些我不想记得的人

从来没有煮过西洋菜
是因为在我最黑暗的日子
这道汤不断地不断地
出现在我最垂丧的晚餐里

这次煮
也是因为人家硬硬把一把菜
进我的购物篮里
然后它就这样进入我的冰箱
住了一天两天三天
开始发黄了
才硬着头皮煮了这锅汤

Blueberry Cupcakes

原来心情低落的时候
做蛋糕才会成功的…………

.
'boh gam guan' with my last failure
i challenged this Blueberry Cupcake!
by changing the 'kena cheated' ingredients & recipe
with my own intuition

no more charcoal at the bottom loo...

this little cupcake is full of surprises
*some says it looks like illness with those purplish polka dots
*some enjoy the sourish surprises among the sweetness

good thing must share~
tq everyone whom shares my victory!
tq for all the encouragement!

我会加油!
