A good Brakefast, after a great Night

Nothing better than some toasted bread, sunny side up eggs, bolognesa Sauce and Machego Cheese, and although the great night
part is confidential, I must say, I'm having the time of my life

A shot at yummy

Once upon a time while browsing the internet I found a masterpiece, and it didn't take too long for me to want to make it mine, so here it is.

first we begin with 2 different flavour cakes,
there we go 2 beautifully cooked cakes chocolate and vanilla
after so we found some very fresh strawberries
and chopped up in small cubes
try to find the best type of whipped cream and set up a layer on top of one cake and the strawberries on top
you will repeat the same process throughout the layers until all 4 are stacked, well actually just to get it clear, tehres 2 cakes cut in halves therefor there are 4 layers.
and there we go its beautiful and ready to eat
enjoy :)

La Pasta e Le Pesce

Ok so this is how it goes
400 grams of tomato puree
half a kilo of pre cooked shrimp (I was way too hungry to buy fresh and peal it)
2 fresh tomatos (I only used 1) and some fresh parsley
About 50 grams of butter
1 large onion (only used half) and 3 large garlics
A good Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon
You're going to need to de-seed the tomatos
about 400 grams of spaghetti (barrela #5)
Chop & Mince finely your veggies
On a hot skilled add about 30 grams of butter
And dump in the shrimp (to give some flavour because it is precooked, I also added a splash of our wine and 5 thai peppers)
After that I removed everything from the pan and let it cool, I added the rest of the butter
and the thai peppers
and then, the rest of our ingredients
after simmering for abouot 5 minutes I added the shrimp
and 1 box of tomato puree
seasoned to taste
Added the pasta
Et, VOILA la pasta e le pesce

Oskar's Cook Book #2 (Full Preparation)

So the first time I made it was WAYY to excited to stop and take pics.
you will need 2-3 green onions

as well as about 2 inch stalk of ginger, (since it's a root its flavour is very strong and very good)
like I said I previously tried this recipe with orange jam, but not good.
this time it calls for NATURAL orange juice, 2 table spoons of brown sugar
1-1.5 table spoons of cornstarch and salt.
for those of us who live in Mexico cornstarch is also known as Maizena.
for that spice flavour I used 3 thai chili peppers
with seeds.
the combination for the breading is, Flour, Eggs with garlic salt, and cornstarch
I used turkey, because the chicken looked ugly at the supermarket
and don't be scared to get dirty because breading is gross and I hate it
after the breading comes the frying and being burnt with hot oil, but the chicken/turkey comes out beautiful
once your chickens ready on a pan you want to heat up oil with a bit of Vodka and when its hot
you add the green onions the peppers and the ginger
5-10 minutes later (until the peppers smell spicy XD) you will add the orange juice/sugar/garlic salt combination
you will need to let the mix come to a boil
and it will get a thicker consistency
and thats when you add your chicken mix it around and there you go.

** I made rice and it came out really good

L'Orange Chicken.
it is one of my most missed take outs.

so I found a recipe but it asked for orange marmalade but it was bitter.
but I found a new one and it was AMAZING!

my only problem continues being not knowing how to make rice.
all my attempts have been crap.

Oskar's Cook Book

Sometimes I just don't understand why I'm not fat.
I LOVE cooking, it is one of the worlds greatest things
and it comes before fashion because without food
how would I get the energy to go out shopping?
right?

so, this is one of the simplest things to make,
I just don't know why I barely learnt how.

Tomato Basil Soup with Grilled Cheese.

what you need and how it works....
1 stick of celery including the leafs
1 carrot diced
1/2 white onion
1/4-1/2 cup olive oil
Tomato Puree
4-5 Fresh Tomatoes cut in 8ths
put your 1/4-1/2 cup of olive oil on a medium size pot to heat
add the celery, onions, carrots and a pinch of salt to your very hot olive oil and stirr
after some 5 minutes of stirring add a few leafs of Basil
you're going to need chicken broth and I preferred for it to be warm as well so it doesn't drop the heat on my soup
chop about 1/2 cup of Basil (of course you may add or take off some)
after some 10-15 minutes of stirring our veggies on olive oil, I added the tomatoes, the tomato puree and the rest of the basil
right after I added around 3 of this scooping spoons full of chicken broth (you can add or take off some depending on how thick you like it to be)
add some salt
1 chopped garlic clove
a dollop of sour cream
and bring it to a boil
once it boils let it cool for around 10 minutes and put it in our blender
I blended by portions to make sure everything was throughly blended
of course you should always taste how good or bad it is so you know to add or take off something
make some simple grill cheese (Bread & Yellow Cheese)
and presto.


sorry about the 100 pictures but I hate a recipe without pictures
enjoy.
