Nacho Nacho MAN!!!

Unfortunately, this is our last day of cooking which is a bit disappointing, but at least I learned how to make some new foods. This time I had a new partner because all the year 8's who are going Tamaki Collage had their Orientation day today. My partner was Tehillah and we both made Nacho's! In my opinion, it wasn't too bad. It actually tasted really nice and it was really fulling. If you would like to try it out, here it is:

Six-Sentences Story

Image result for silhouette boyOnce Upon a Time there was a handsome boy named JayJay. He lived in a small cabin with the sight of a nearby river. He was a poor boy but he had the ability to heal anyone who was injured. The problem was, no one believed he was able to do this. He felt betrayed, but one day he saw a girl bleeding to death. He decided to heal the girl in front of the whole village, and that’s when the people made a celebration about this amazing save, and gave him the label, Chief.

Hangi In The Oven?

This is the 2nd to last week for cooking which is a bit sad but at least I'll get to cook these in the future. Today we made a Hangi, which is a traditional Maori food. It's where people cook food under the ground, and steam it up. I'm not quite sure how it actually works but the food somehow doesn't taste like dirt. Since we can't do it under the ground, we are going to be cooking it in the oven. If you would like to learn how to cook it, here is your instructions.

Ingredients -
Onion
Carrot
Cabbage
Orange Kumara
Potato
Pumpkin
Chicken

Step 1 - Dice the vegetables

  • Onion (Slice)
  • Carrot (Square)
  • Cabbage (Slice)
  • Potato (Square)
  • Pumpkin (Square)
  • Chicken (Cut in half)
Step 2 - Put the chicken in first and top up with vegetables, spices & salt.
- Bake 180 degrees for 40 mins

🍫Chocolate Cake🍫 (Gone Wrong)

Just a normal Tuesday, the Year 8's went to Tech/Tamaki College. Today we got to make Chocolate Cake but something went wrong. I accidentally put too much water in the batter mix, which made it watery. Surprisingly, I kept mixing it and it didn't turn out bad. It was a bit watery but the mix was still good so we still put it in the oven. My advice to all of those bakers and readers out there, don't be stupid like me and listen to your teacher/parent when cooking/baking. If you would like to know how to make this cake then here we go:

Ingredients -
Plain Flour
Sugar
Cocoa
Eggs
Oil

Vanilla

Step 1 - Dry Ingredients

- 1 c of Sugar

Step 2 - Wet Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
