檸檬蜜糖雞翼 Honey Lemon Chicken Wings


你鍾意雞鎚多 d 定係雞中翼多 d 呢?

我就鍾意雞中翼!!!!

e 個又係似足 BBQ 版雞翼, 好香口!!

材料:
1 pack 雞翼、檸檬半隻搾汁、一湯匙豉油、一湯匙砂糖、一湯匙魚露、半湯匙蒜茸粉、一茶匙薑茸

(後下: 一湯匙蜜糖)

1. 將材料放進 ziplock bag 放雪櫃醃一晚備用。
2. 預熱焗爐 to 420˚F. 焗盤鋪兩層鍚紙, 放雞翼。
3. 袋中汁料加一湯匙蜜糖撈匀, 掃於雞翼面, 入爐焗二十分鐘, 再掃蜜糖汁一次, 再焗多三分鐘, 搞掂食得。

*記得睇睇火, 個人焗爐溫度都有差嘛, 唔夠熟 or 唔夠燶就焗耐少少, 燶得滯就要減溫度囉~ 最緊要變通嘛!!~ ;P

酥皮忌廉蘑菇雞湯 Cream of Mushroom and Chicken Soup with Puff Pastry Shell


酥皮湯~ 令我諗起以前喺香港嘅馬利奧餐廳. 佢有個酥皮海皇湯好正架!
好記得當時海運大廈有一間馬利奧, 中學時期嘅我去食過酥皮海皇湯, 當然一試難忘啦~ ^^


大概幾個月前, 我問男朋友仔生日想食d 咩, 佢就提過想食酥皮湯 or Chicken Pot Pie. haha. Chicken Pot Pie 就係更加洋化嘅 comfort food. hmm.. 都係想整酥皮湯多 d, 所以就試著整俾佢食!



個忌廉蘑菇雞湯係自己 from the scratch 煲架, 好味過 Campbell's 的多多聲! 其實都唔難煮, 你都試吓啦! d 材料仲 fresh 好多 tim~ 鐘意嘅又可以落多 d 蘑菇仔~

Ingredients:
2 packs fresh mushrooms(sliced)
1/2 onion(chopped)
4 cloves garlic
1 1/2 cup low fat milk
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 can chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 potato(chopped into small cubes)
1 bunch of spinach(use the leaves only)
2 pieces of chicken(cut into small pieces)
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
*In a small skillet, saute chicken over medium high heat for two minutes. Set aside.
*In a large skillet, saute onions and garlic for one minute. Add mushrooms and stir-fried for two minutes. Turn off heat and wait for it to cool down a bit.
*Mix low fat milk and whipping cream in a measuring cup.
*In a blender/ food processor, puree half the mushroom mixture with milk mixture till smooth.
*In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium low heat, whisk in flour. Add mushroom puree, chicken broth, chicken, potato, spinach, black pepper, thyme and the rest of mushroom mixture from the skillet; stirring constantly, bring it to a boil, cook for about 10 minutes or until thickened.

This is the frozen puff pastry sheets that I use, by Pepperidge Farm, super convenient:



~先解凍~
*Before you make the soup, it's recommended to put the pastry sheet out since you need to thaw it for about 45 minutes till it's easy to unfold and handle.

~預備蛋水~
Prepare egg wash: beat together 1 egg + 1 teaspoon of water

~加酥皮~
Fill a bowl with cream of mushroom and chicken soup and place onto a baking sheet. Trim pastry sheet into desire size that fits your bowl. Put the pastry sheet on top of the bowl and wrap around the edge. Brush egg wash onto the pastry sheet. Bake in 400˚F preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Ready to serve.

薑蔥焗全魚 Baked Whole Fish with Green Onions and Ginger


焗同蒸效果都係一樣~ 咁好食!!~ ;P

如果咁樣成條魚上, 去請西人食飯, 一定嚇到聽到 "I can't stand that fish!"

外國人只會食無骨嘅魚, 即係 fish filet! 食雞都係差唔多, 食白肉唔食黑肉架! 仲要無骨嗰隻~ 各人口味唔同嘛 wakaka

要和而不同咪就係咁囉! ;P

Traditional 嘅 pumpkin pie, 唔單只加咗 cinnamon, 仲會有 nutmeg, ginger, 同埋 cloves 等等好多種香料. 但係 e d 香料陣味呢, 就唔係好啱某 d "香港人". haha.. so 我改咗用煉奶 and 黃糖, 都幾香架!!~ ^^
