First Day & Cooking

Hi everyone,

My school finally started yesterday, I was lost in the campus when i am rushing to print the lecture notes and went to the wrong venue for the classes.

The result: enter the class 5 min before the class end. (So no face!)

My practical class ended early becoz this is the first week of school so not much thing that we can do for prac.

One of my hsemate ZW fell sick on the first day of school and since class ended early, we decided to cook porridge for her. (Since i still have not receive the rice cooker's wire that my mom forgot to put in my luggage.So i end up with a rice cooker without wire).

I have decided to cook mushroom and chicken porridge for her.

Mushroom and chicken porridge

Firstly, I thawed the chicken breast fillet on the table ( And went to catch up some nap. I end up seeing my chicken floating in a pot of water. Must be the act of my hsemate.)
Secondly, sliced the chicken and the mushroom.
Thirdly, wash some rich and immerse it in water to make the rice softer.
Fourthly, marinade the sliced chicken with white pepper, sesame oil, salt, dark soy sauce and oyster sauce and refrigerate it for half and hr.
Fifthly, boil the rice and add in the mushroom and one cube of Maggi chicken stock to add the favor. Add in the chicken last so that it can retain the taste.
Finally, boiled the porridge until it bubbles then cover the lid and let it steam for awhile.

Always rmb to stir it once in awhile to prevent the bottom of the porridge from being chao tar.

Dangdang!!! There is the nice porridge done, suitable for a sick person(just kidding, anyone can eat it)

i was unsure of the finally product but it turn out nice and sweet when i taste the porridge. But as for the chicken, it was a bit overcook and all the sweetness went into the porridge causing the chicken to taste bland.

All in all, it is a experience for me and to KT: I am sure that by the time you come, my cooking will surprise you!

Haha!!!

My first cooking

I finally cook my first meal in brisbane this Wednesday. I buy the campbell spaghetti sauce and i cook the spaghetti and potato egg.

Mushroom, tomato & beef spaghetti

First, I cook the spaghetti in a rice cooker borrowed from someone and i dip it in cold water.
Secondly, I add in some mince garlic into the pan to add the aroma and then mushroom and tomato is added too.
Thirdly, I added in the sauce to mix with the ingredient to heat up the sauce.
Finally, the spaghetti is added into the pan to mix with the sauce and ingredient.
I tasted the spaghetti when i am cooking, it become hard after putting it in the cold water so i add water into the pan to soften it.
But apparently it does not work well, becoz when i eat it it is still quite hard.

Potato egg
Firstly, Sliced the potato evenly(which i din)
Secondly, cracked the egg and whip it. Add in seasoning such as salt, pepper,sesame oil, dark and light soy sauce.
Thirdly, pan fried the potato until it turn brown.
Finally, add in the egg to cook together with the potato.

The final product is sort of like scramble egg with mashed potato becoz the pan i used is very small, i just cant turn the egg over properly. I also tasted some uncooked potato becoz i slice them unevenly.

It is a pity that i did not took a pic of it but nvm i have plenty of chance in the future as i have buy the sauce again and waiting to cook it the second time.
