Foodie adventures by Liz XD

So last night I decided to bake bread!!! XDDD I used Jamie Oliver's recipe for the basic bread. Instead of bread flour, I just used normal plain white flour, so it was more sticky than the pictures because plain flour doesn't have as much gluten as bread flour - so it's not as elastic (or so I've read!) So I had to add another half cup of flour to make it a BIT less sticky - still sticky though.. hahaha I proved the bread 3 times before putting it into the oven, my new mini oven said to make the temp 20 degrees less than normal, so I put it in there fore about 10 minutes extra! turned out really yummy XD


So tonight I'm making steak!! I've marinated the steak in the best steak marinade in existence since this morning LOL really interested to see what it will turn out like!! ^^ I'm also making the best ever potato salad - half portions though! LOL I'm steaming the potatoes, the eggs, adding peas and microwaving the bacon LOL that way I'm not using TOO much water.. to boil everything... hahaha and not using too much oil with the bacon XD oh oh and i bought whole egg mayo (65% fat free) OMG i was so shocked to know that WHOLE EGG MAYO is 80% FAT LOL then again, all mayo is fat - but in 100ml, there is 3000KJ!! LOL!!!!! oh man. thats why i opted for the more expensive 65$ fat free version, at least 100ml is 1000KJ.. hahhaha

going to make ribs and chips with Eba tomorrow ^^ I've been eying Beth's melt in your mouth ribs recipe for some time!! EXCITED XD

Lamb curry noodles! mindfully eating! It's the best curry I've had!!! The awesome thing about mindful eating, is that everything you eat, every time you eat, it's the best food you ever have, because you're not analysing, you're not comparing, you're not thinking, you're just being in the moment and enjoying the food at that very moment XDD yummm
