Golden Fried Cheese

August 21st 2008 02:06

I love cheese and also like to try new ways of eating them but hadn't tried deep-frying them until I came across this recipe. The heat of the oil softens the cheese considerably which contrasts really well with the crunchy crisp breadcrumbs - simple and delicious

Ramen Noodle Coleslaw

April 4th 2008 03:52

If you've ever been a student for any length of time, there's a good chance that you've had to stretch your finances by eating Ramen noodles. They're the instant noodles that come in those happy packages - the price varies from 30 cents up to 4 dollars.

And that's a big difference in quality, too. Sadly, uni students are likely to fall for the ol' trick of buying an entire box of cheap noodles, gleeful at the idea of how many weeks they can last on it, using their money to buy more beer

Raw Beetroot Salad with fetta and pear

Everyone who is anyone who has heard of beetroot, knows that this ominous word brings to mind one thing, pinkish-red stains (and lots of them)! Needless to say, when it comes to stand alone dishes, “the beetroot” rarely appears, except for in burgers or salads. Well today, marks the beginning of a new day, with this delightful Raw Beetroot Salad with fetta and pear!

Refreshing green salad with balsamic vinegar dressing

Refreshing green salad with balsamic vinegar dressing

You know how sometimes you just feel so unhealthy. Usually this pivotal moment hits after you’ve gorged yourself on fifty mini Easter eggs or a bar of chocolate and then you’ve finally realised that you’ve eaten the whole pack in one sitting. The keyword being sitting, because that’s right, you forewent your exercise to sit back and eat that chocolate. And then you probably basked in some self-pity! *slap* Get your act together you tell yourself!

Delicious Potato salad with bacon and sour cream

February 16th 2007 12:02

Potato salad with bacon and sour cream

This is a deliciously wholesome potato salad! W-h-o-l-e-s-o-m-e! Unlike many potato salads which have strong tangy, mayonnaise flavours and are served cold, this salad is uniquely characterised by the mustard flavours with the sour cream undertones and is served warm! I love it! It really is a welcome change to some of the bland cold salads.

Delicious Caesar Salad

January 11th 2007 13:07

Caesar Salad

Caesar Salad! A salad fit for emperors some might say! And why wouldn’t it be, when it is brimming with flavour! Of the many salads out and about, I dare say that Caesar salad would be at the top of the popularity list but not necessarily the top of the *healthy* list. Sure it has greens, but it does also have bacon and egg yolks! Aahhh well… the price you pay for tastiness!

Baby Spinach, feta and bacon salad!

December 30th 2006 11:51

Baby Spinach, feta and bacon salad

I l-o-v-e bacon! This is actually quite a filling salad! Must be the combination of greens with delicious bacon and feta that does the trick! If anything, this salad reminds me of a Caesar salad minus the cos lettuce and croutons and parmesan and salad dressing. Yes. So in actual fact it doesn’t really resemble a Caesar salad at all. The only real similarity is the bacon, which I love! But I already mentioned that! Oh well! Anything that makes me eat more greens should get a star I say!

Bocconcini and Tomato Salad

December 5th 2006 11:47

Bocconcini and Tomato Salad

Okay! I’m not even sure whether this counts as cooking, but hey, it’s delicious and hence deserves its place in cooking recipe history! What am I referring to? Bocconcini and Tomato Salad to be specific. So simple to make! No *actual* cooking involved, not even the tossing of the salad! I KNOW! Who ever heard of a salad which did not require tossing?! Well you have now! This dish requires what could be termed*artistic arrangement*!

It is best eaten fresh, made on the spot so to speak, otherwise the dressing can tend to make the tomatoes a tad soggy. But it does look a million dollars considering the little effort required!

Bocconcini, asparagus & avocado salad

November 27th 2006 10:53

Bocconcini, asparagus & avocado salad

Aah! Nothing better than a simple salad on a lazy Summer day. I swear during the past few days which were truly unbearably hot, I almost contemplated throwing out the oven, because goodness knows, its almost impossible to bake anything when you are dying from the heat. However I came to my senses before any harm was done to any appliances, and decided to make something which did not require baking.
