Chocolate Muffins

For our last week of cooking we made chocolate muffins. The recipe was like the chocolate brownies but instead of using the brownie tray we used the muffin tray. My last partner for cooking was Limiteti. We each put in our own amount of the mix then added more if we had left overs. To tell the difference she used a different colored muffin cup. Limiteti's muffin cups were pink and orange and I had the green and purple muffin cups. On the left you                                                        have the steps and on the right is our finishing product.

Chicken Wraps

For the second to last week our cooking group made chicken wraps, and since barely anyone was there we each had our own stations to work in. We used varieties of vegetables, chicken, mayonnaise and added sweet chili sauce if we wanted to. It was kind of challenging to make it into a wrap but by the co-operation of Mrs Tuipulotu we were able to do it.

Cottage Pie

Last week for tech we made cottage pie. It was a very enjoyable meal and something I would cook at home. My opinion on this is it is very simple to make but taste even better.

 Participating in cooking class is exciting because every week we make something different but no matter difficult it is to make the taste is always delightful.

Potato Salad

At tech we made potato salad, the potato salad has been one of the effortless dishes I have made since my group started attending cooking class. I think that almost anybody can make potato salad because it is fast to prepare and can fill you up instantly.

Sweet And Sour Pork

Sweet and sour pork was on the menu for today.

This week Faye and I collaborated and prepared a small  but delicious dish. It was a very vibrant mix of vegetables and some juicy pork. 

The sauce  had some soy sauce to golden the colour and pineapple to sweeten it up a bit more.

Overall I think this dish was one of my favorites that we have made in cooking class. 

Chop Suey

Today my partner, Limiteti, and the other year 7's and year 8's made chop suey. It contained vegetables, meat and vermicelli.

First we sliced up the ingredients and the meat and boiled the vermicelli. After that we combined the ingredients and mixed  them all together to make the chop suey.

Overall it was a very yummy dish and would recommend for dinner or lunch.

Fritata With Kumara

Today Sione and I made Fritata with kumara. We used eggs, kumara that we shredded, milk and onions. First we fried our onions in some oil, added it all into a small baking tray then we baked it in the sizzling oven and left it to cook until it turned into a rich golden brown colour. Once it was time to eat Sione started demolishing in and to me it was fine but it wasn't outstanding. I am looking forward to next week and what we will be cooking.

Macaroni And Cheese

On Wednesday for tech the year 7's made macaroni and cheese. We had to make the cheese sauce and boil the macaroni until it became soft. After we combined the macaroni and the cheese sauce we put it in a cake tin and sprinkled more cheese to make it extra cheesy. Then we melted the cheese in the oven and then 'tada' it was finally complete. Our final presentation looked like this.

Delicious Meat Patties

 For today's meal we made meat patties, it is quite like a burger but with no toppings but ketchup. The year 7's had a unrelated dish compared to the year 8's.

At first when me and Limiteti cooked it there was still some blood in it but the second time round it cooked perfectly. The meat patties are really appetizing to eat!

My Dish at Tech!

Two days ago we went back to Tech. This was my second time in Mrs Tuipulotu's class.

My partner was Sione. This week we were cooking soup. The silliest thing that happened was when Mrs Tuipulotu added more water to our soup while it was already watery. This is how our soup turned out at the end.
