Best Food Blog

Not mine of course but that of this site. It's a delightful blog on food, photography and design. I really like the step-by-step instructions that come with pictures and the author has a great sense of humour. Go check it out.

Today, the dinner I made were all reciped I picked from her site.

1. Onion strings (mine's more like rings)

I don't have cayenne pepper so used paprika instead. This is super easy to make and really delicious (though not quite healthy due to the deep-frying). I thought I might have cooked too much but the girls kept taking them by the handful. It was finished in no time.

2. Crash hot potatoes

Adrian commented this is a nice change. It's like a cross between mashed and roast potatoes. Again, very simple to do.

3. Honey roast chicken

I've never been confident at roasting but this recipe was simple enough to follow and seemed foolproof. I used chicken instead of turkey and added honey to the melted butter to glaze it. Though I didn't achieve an even colour, I was pleased with the result. It was my first truly successful roast chicken. The possible reason for the uneven tone may be due to the fact that I on and off the oven a few times as I had to run in and out of the house to run errands.
