Cooking in the home
Well I like to cook, most of the time. Like majority of the women today We are quite active. Yet I do love to get into the galley and turn out mouth watering feast for my friends and family. I take great enjoy being the talk of the town “If you get invited to Alice’s House for dinner, don’t say no, she is an amazing cook”. That is among the many remarks which have been extended about my cooking prowess. It makes me very proud. I have some favourite cook books and I enjoy to fiddle with all the recipes . I often return to the book I obtained a recipe from years later and realize that what I’m making is fairly diverse than the original recipe. I believe that it is the mark of a very good cook when you can change a recipe to make it work better or make something up on the fly.
The thing is we are all very busy and occasionally we just need to have something simple and fast to cook. Well there is certainly no way I would get away with baked beans on toast for dinner in this house, butI actually do have a few tricks up my sleeve for when I’m simply to tired do not have time or could not be bothered.
Calling for a Pizza is unthinkable, unless it’s a code red catastrophe (which happens from time to time). And so i am left with, what will i do that is really quick? Today we have been spoilt for choice with a number of the packet mixes and jars that are around, and thus many of them are really good (some aren’t). I have to say that a not too long ago discovered favourite of mine is the Continental apricot chicken curry. Now usually I would have to add some of my own twist to a packet mix, but this one delivers purely by using the instructions. A long time favourite may be the quick cook meatballs from Woolworths with a jar of my very favourite Paul Newman’s own pasta sauce and a can of diced tomatoes. If I want a curry in a hurry I truly need to make a bit of a sacrifice on taste but Passage of India Curry Sauces are worth trying. Now really, none of this is as good as cooking yourself, but it works if you are pushed for time and means that you could get something way a lot better than a frozen TV dinner on the table.
