Crappy photos





1. cinnamon cupcakes with whipped cream and strawberries. Baked these bad boys on Thursday evening, they were heavenly!

2. Meat pie- I seasoned the beef with onions, parsley, ground red pepper, garlic, salt,and maggi cubes. It was delicious, Layide and I finished it in less than an hour.

3.Shrimp cakes, Asian cobb salad and lime aioli. This was totally last minute, just me trying to use ingredients before they went bad.


I don't even want to know how much weight I put on last week *covers face in shame*. Definitely not cooking anything this week.

Fail!

I was supposed to post pictures of dinner on Wednesday, but was too lazy to *covers face in shame*

I cooked jollof rice, plantain and gizzard and spicy beef cubes. It's one of my popular dinners so I'll be making it again very soon. I'll take pictures next time.

I had some leftover shrimp from the chilli-ginger shrimp I made on Saturday evening so I decided to make some shrimp cakes. I served them with an Asian cobb slaw and lime aioli. Yum! I took some pictures with my phone, bad quality but, will be posting pictures regardless.

Yesterday, I baked my first cupcakes. They were delicious! I took pictures with my phone and will be posting them as well.

Besos,

Dinner with friends

I've decided to cook dinner for a few people tonight. It's really last minute so I'm thinking simple, familiar flavours, definitely not experimenting tonight.

Cooking jollof rice, snails, plantain and gizzard, and peppered beef. Yum! I have some chicken cutlets so I'm thinking panko chicken or honey-garlic chicken. We'll see how it goes. Will post pictures as soon I'm done cooking and plating.

A bien tot,

Steph

Culinary Inclined

The first thing I ever cooked was beef. I was about 7 and I guess I was feeling quite adventurous that day. The maid helped season the beef and it was pretty good. Since then, I've been hooked!

I love food, cooking and most importantly, I love to feed people.

I implore you to join me as I hone my culinary skills

Besos,

Steph
