What a Feast - Microwave Cooking
What a feast indeed, recalling the spread we had during our microwave cooking lesson with Mr Chew at the Sengkang CC on 31 July 2010. =) I'll just fill the entries with many delightable photos since those are always very much well-loved. =)
Be warned! The following is mouth-watering!
Be warned! The following is mouth-watering!
I know it's called microwave cooking but Jun Wei brought along Vietnamese coffee and tea and so we were trying to start the fire so that we could get some water boiling. ^^;
Some more shortcuts - Mr Chew trying to cook a packet of bee hoon in a rice cooker. ^^;
We had many kinds of vegetables that day - vegetables are good for health! Don't forget the food pyramid - always eat your greens!
And so, the lesson began! Everyone was paying attention - we want to learn how to cook fast and quick and delicious at the same time!
There! We did use the microwave. =)
Meanwhile, Jun Wei and Malik prepared tea for everyone. They made such a huge pot of it! =X I don't think we managed to finish it all on the spot.
The first dish is out! It's fried bee hoon with chopped vegetables.
Wai Fun was caught stealing a mouthful while everyone was at the back listening to Mr Chew about cooking the next dish.
This is how we steam egg in the microwave - check out the number of layers involved! One outer bowl, a layer of water, a layer of aluminium foil and in the foil, another smaller bowl... XD
The egg came out delicious though. =)
Look at how everyone was snatching it all up! This is the Japanese-styled steamed egg. If I didn't remember wrongly, it's just eggs plus some flavouring, ie. salt and pepper to your own taste and liking. We made another type of steamed egg, the tofu kind and it's a ratio of eggs and water and flavouring.
This is our vegetable dish! Impressive isn't it? Looks like something you can get from the restaurant. XD See how green the colours still are? It's not overcooked. =) And it is delicious!
Another vegetable dish. It might not look like much but I believe it's one of our favourites! Jun Wei had to stop everyone from finishing it so that Si Hui could have some when she comes. =X
Yum yum! I think I took more photos than I ate though. =X
The last dish was one of the most innovative - it's making curry puff using roti prata! It tasted great too. Here's Hong Yuen trying to make one herself and it's really simple to make! ^^ I'm going to try it one day at home too. Only thing is, I don't have a microwave at home!! ='(
By the end of the session, our tummies were all full and extremely happy. =)
