chicken, lamb, potatoes, pineapples

slow-cooked chicken with cabbage

cut 2 lemon into 8 smaller pieces each. also cut 2 whole heads of garlic(include skin). chop up 2 half chicken into smaller sections.

arrange chicken and lemons into a bowl. then, sprinkle fresh thyme over the contents and drizzle with olive oil followed by 150ml of white wine. cover bowl with foil and cook for 160 C for 2 hours. after that, remove and put to cooking again for 45 minutes.

to prepare the cabbage, arrange whole cabbage/s (Try not to get too big ones) in a bowl, then pour chicken stock over it followed by drizzle of salt and pepper and olive oil. cover bowl with aluminium foil and cook in same oven as chicken..for the final 20minutes


lamb-sticks (:

first, cut the lamb into small cutlets and trim away unnecessary fat. wrap with plastic film(for cleanliness) and bash it ( with a roller or anything handy!) to loosen the meat.
start to heat up olive oil (not virgin) in preparation to fry the lamb cutlets.
into another container, grate about 10-20g of parmesan cheese and mix it with bread crumb. you can prepare bread crumb by just leaving some slices of bread to dry and then grate or do anything just to crush it. =)
then,beat 2 eggs into another bowl.
the procedure to coat is to first layer the lamb cutlet with egg, then only the mixture of bread crumbs and parmesan cheese. it's now ready to be fried and later goes down into any hungry stomach!

yet another potato salad recipe
cumin, lemon juice, olive oil, onions...and of course, you mix it with potato, cut or mashed.

caramelised pineapple with malibu chocolate

melt these together:
125ml malibu (coconut liquor)
125ml cream
200g chocolate
during the process, squeeze some pineapple juice into the chocolate sauce..give it extra flavour!

you'll need to prepare cut pineapples-on-sticks. soak the (wood) sticks in water to prevent it from catching fire when caramelising sugar.
coat the cut (longitudinally) pineapples with brown sugar and put on barbeque to caramelise.
once done, serve with the chocolate sauce (in individual bowls for hygiene purposes) to be used as a dipping sauce. =)
