Cooking myself

[GLZT]

I think I know the reason already, before you start the fire, you already put the macaroni and the water in the pot?

[Blackwind]

But from your pic you cooked the spaghetti and the sauce separately right? I never got my spaghetti stuck on the pot before even though I seldom stir it, maybe is the pot?

 

yup. cooked seperately with this.......

yes. that is what i did.

You should make sure the water is boiling first before throw the stuff in, then you wont have any burnt pasta on the pot.

thnx for the tip

Sorry, my instructions not clear enough. The meat should be close to done first then pour sauce. Otherwise sauce wasted, anyways yours looks like too little sauce. Usually for 1pax use up to about half the bottle.

 

wanted to try chewbacca's dish but decided to start from the easiest dish

 

first up

unltd's spagetti and chicken with barilla sauce

 

looks: 9/10

taste: 7/10

health factor: seems quite healthy

 

other comments:

 

when i was cooking the chicken with barilla sauce the chicken took too long to get done(arnd 40mins)... by then the barilla sauce has all dried up... but not to worry i added another round of barilla sauce over it to salvage the moment

 

i took considerable time removing the burnt spagetti formed at the base of my utensil

TS, you really seem to have no clue how to cook at all. Maybe to make life easier, why not join one of those cooking classes for novices conducted in cc? will introduce you to the world of simple cooking.

Butterhead lettuce.. The beef provides the dressing for the lettuce.

 

The corn is better steamed rather than boil, 50mins minimum i feel.

 

 

[Relagsingh]

like i said in my very first post... i don't want to leave the cooking to be done by ppl who don't practice basic hygiene

Simple dishes:

 

 

Fried Rice:

 

You'll need: Cooked Rice (for 2 people), 2-3 eggs(beaten, i normally use 3), olive oil, chopped garlic, soy sauce, pepper, meat ingredients, shallots, spring onions(chopped).

 

 

Eggs, add some pepepr and salt(just abit will do) and beat.

 

 

First off, fry garlic in oil(don't need alot, just enough to prevent garlic from chao ta-medium heat) and add in to stir fry your meat ingredients eg, sliced sausages, crab meat, prawns, fish slices, etc...

 

Take out ingredients and put on plate.

 

 

Use existing oil + abit more to stir fry more garlic, don't let it chao ta, add rice and fry for about 2-3 mins to get the moisture out.

Add soy sauce and pepper to taste. Fry another 1 to 2 mins. High heat.

 

Lower the heat and flatten out the rice and pour in the beaten eggs. It should just nice cover the rice in the wok. After about 30s, start flipping and seperating the mixture

to ensure an even cooking surface. Once most of the eggs on rice mix looks done, add in ingredients and mix. Adter another 30s remove and serve with shallots and spring onions.

 

Difficulty: 3/10 (7.5/10 if you want every rice grain to be covered in egg)

 

 

 

Sweet and sour fish and fried mince meatballs with apple sauce coming up soon.
