Apple Pie baked on 18/03/08

I baked an apple pie with my husband on that day. I made the filling, and he took care of the rest. It was a guess work how much ingredients to use, but it turned out to be really nice. As far as I remember, I cooked sliced apples in a pot with butter, raisins, sugar, a bit of apple juice, cinnamon, and a drop of vannila extract. It was another way of using up apples. I think we decided to make it as the apples were getting old.

Dinner on 9/03/08

Menu; stir-fry vegetables on rice

It was a very easy dinner to cook. I simply stir-fry vegetables and tuna, add a bit of oyster sauce to taste, and then put on a bowl of cooked rice.
I sprinkled a pinch of black pepper on top. You can use any vegetables for this dish. On that day, I used carrots, onions, Chinese greens and broccoli which I found in the fridge. I cook this type of dish when I want to use up vegetables in the fridge. You should give it a go.

Dinner on 6/03/08

Menu; Brazilian-style chicken & rice

It was a very easy dinner as I just used the sauce to cook chicken. It was quite nice. We had some rice and stir-fry vegetables to go with it. What I liked about this sauce is that there's no artificial ingredients in it. They are all natural.

Pudding baked on 06/03/08

I just found this photo, but I'm not 100% sure what it is. My guess is bread pudding, but not sure.
I can almost smell the spice just looking at this photo :) mmmm, yummy!

Dinner on 4/3/08

Menu; Fish & Chips

This is another typical British food. I've just noticed that I had British food two days in a row.

I love fish & chips! The fish is very similar to fish tempura in my opinion, and the chips are soooo lovely! chunky and natural! When I was living in Seattle about ten years ago, my Irish friend told me that British people put vinegar on chips. It was quite shocking to me. Vinegar on chips?!?!? For us, it's an odd combination - but now, I love it and have to have vinegar on chips. I suppose I'm anglicised after living here for 5 years :)

Dinner on 3/3/08

Menu; Bangers & Mash with onion gravy sauce

This is one of the classic British dishes - bangers & mush. Bangers mean sausages, by the way.

See, I can cook British food :)

Lunch on 3/3/08

Menu; cold meat, salad, baguette, pickle, pickled onions

It looks very summery, isn't it.

I love this type of baguette which is half-baked and you just bake it in the oven.
