… and others who might be interested. Here is the recipe that I used to bake those dog kibbles. :)
Ingredients
- A – 6 cups flour (4 cups wheat flour and 2 cups all-purpose flour)
- B – 1 cup powdered milk
- C – 1 1/2 cup rolled oats
- D – 1 cup wheat germ
- E – 1/2 cup brewers yeast
- F – 1 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt (I used sea salt)
- G – 1 large egg
- H – 1 cup canned pumpkin (I had to omit this as I wanted to make some but didn’t have pumpkin with me)
- I – 4 tablespoon safflower oil (I just used sunflower oil)
- J – 3 cups cooked, ground meat
- K – 2 cups water
Instructions
- Combine A – F.
- Stir together G, H, and I, and then mix well with No. 1.
- Work in J. Make sure it disperse well.
- Add K.
- Spread the mixture into about 1/2-inch thick on greased cookie sheet. Cut into small checkerboard pattern.
- Bake until uniformly golden brown, approximately 50 minutes. Note: The original recipe didn’t provide temperature so I used about 180 degrees Celsius.
- Remove from oven, and let it cool for 10 minutes. Break the squares apart, stir them around and return them to the oven.
- Turn off the oven. Leave the kibbles in it and stir occasionally.
Hopefully yours turn out better than mine, Rain! :)
The recipe of my parents’ famous butter cookies!
What you’ll need:
250g butter, room temparature
100g icing sugar
300g flour
Approx. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 180-200 degrees C.
2. Mix flour and baking powder in a bowl.
3. Cream butter and icing sugar with an electric mixer until white and fluffy.
4. Fold in the flour mixture
5. Make into the shape(s) you want and place on cookie sheet. Here is the part I like best. We discovered our very own tools-of-the-year – a COOKIE PRESSER! It’s so much fun to play with!
6. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
7. Last but not least, this is the most important step. Eat as much as you like.
Ever since I’ve successfuly baked a brownies with the recipe from Jamie Oliver’s website, I’ve been looking for more recipes that might suit me there. My main concern was certainly the difficulty level. lol. When I came across this roasted chicken breast with cherry tomatoes and asparagus, I said to myself, OK I’ll try this.
I wanted to cook this for darl so he could bring to work but his working hours this week just couldn’t fit into my schedule. And tonight since I was alone at home, I’ve decided to make myself this dish, with a bowl of rice to go with.
Preparing the dish.
I skipped the white wine and instead I added a little bit of rice wine, simply because I didn’t have any white wine in hand. But the rice wine certainly didn’t make any difference to the taste. :D
About 25 minutes later.
I would say it’s tasty and yummy. The only thing is that I’m not used to the taste and smell of rosemary. It’s just not a commonly used herb in Chinese cooking. Oh and I skipped the balsamic vinegar too. I’m really from a traditional Chinese family. :D
But for a dish that is simple, easy, and healthy, I think this is one of the good ones.
P/S: I wonder why Jamie’s rosemary can still look so green after the roasting. Mine turned into dark brown. Hmm… :/
Everyone knows I don’t really like cooking. While I do cook at times, I always try to google around and find myself the easiest recipe. I don’t like deep fried. I don’t like to have a long list of ingredients to prepare – hey I tend to forget, and it makes me dizzy when I need to keep referring back to the list.
When I was reading about this cook off, I sort of got attracted by one of the recipes created by Chef Tafari Campbell from Maryland. It’s called Pan Roasted Glazed Rockfish with Peas and Carrots. The list is not long, and the instructions seem to be simple. And best of all, it sounds healthy. :)
I probably have to make some changes to the recipe, especially the fish itself, since rockfish is local in the U.S. but probably not here in Penang. I’ve always preferred to have fresh meats, especially seafood, at the wet market near my place instead of those frozen and imported ones from the supermarket. I notice it’s so much fresher! And that’s one of the many benefits of cooking with the domestic seafood. Fresh, fresh, and always fresh!
The site is currently having a competition for readers to vote for their favourite recipe using domestic, sustainable seafood from the top five that the judges have chosen. Winner will get a “Trip to New Orleans” prize package including two Southwest Airline roundtrip tickets, hotel accommodations, dining experiences and so on. I believe it’s only for the U.S. residents but I don’t mind. I’ve got myself a simple and healthy recipe here. But if you are from the U.S., check them out at www.GreatAmericanSeafoodCookOff.com and pick up a recipe that suits you, sit back and see if the tickets go to you! :)
I have been wanting to try this ever since I read about a similar post somewhere on a lazy recipe blog and on Shu-Yin’s blog. But I never had a good chance until last Friday…
I was all alone at home. Everyone was out and away and won’t be back until evening. I couldn’t believe that I still enjoy so much of the quiet time that I have alone. I had the whole house! :D
When it was about lunch time, I started looking for some possibly good ingredients for my Lazy Girl Pizza. I settled with some Taiwan sausages and mixed vege.
So as the name suggests, it’s supposed to be lazy. Lazy = easy. First layer, tomato sauce/ketchup. Then place the sliced Taiwan sausages and mixed vege nicely and evenly on top. You can use any other suitable ingredients that you have in hand. Think about what Pizza Hut does. Tuna, beef, bacon, chicken… you name it!
Next, as I don’t have any cheese at home, I tried putting mayonnaise on the last layer instead.
Put in the oven, bake for a good 10-15 minutes at around 200℃. And you’ll have this!
I wanted to take a clearer photo but my camera’s battery went flat at this time, so did my tummy. :D Believe it or not, it was actually very yummy! A bit too sour at the end, I think I put too much of ketchup but I think it’s OK and this will be one of my favourite lazy recipes from now on. :D
