Food..YUM

I love food! Eating, cooking, smelling..tasting. LOL. I also like to try different foods from all around the world.

I used Paula Deen's recipe for this fried chicken and it was YUM!. Try it.




Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/3 cup water
  • About 1 cup hot red pepper sauce (recommended: Texas Pete)
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • House seasoning, recipe follows
  • 1 (1 to 2 1/2-pound) chicken, cut into pieces
  • Oil, for frying, preferably peanut oil

Directions

In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs with the water. Add enough hot sauce so the egg mixture is bright orange. In another bowl, combine the flour and pepper. Season the chicken with the house seasoning. Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg, and then coat well in the flour mixture.
Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a deep pot. Do not fill the pot more than 1/2 full with oil.
Fry the chicken in the oil until brown and crisp. Dark meat takes longer then white meat. It should take dark meat about 13 to 14 minutes, white meat around 8 to 10 minutes.

House Seasoning:

  • 1 cup salt
  • 1/4 cup black pepper
  • 1/4 cup garlic powder

The next food is a Nigerian dish, Cat fish stew. I ate it so much last year, and I got really tired of it. Its really simple and easy to make, but I'm not posting the recipe. If anyone needs it, you can shoot me a comment.

Inspirations..

I love fashion and style. I'm a fashion blog fanatic and constantly drool on fabulous fashion finds. I always try my best to have a different look every time I wear an outfit, but I'm still not bold enough to wear whatever I feel.

I recently borrowed my aunt's sewing machine, and I've been wanting to sew somethings with some ankara (African prints) fabrics I own. I've been looking for inspirations, and I've found two. I'll try my best to make this, and hopefully I don't screw up.lol

I love Solange's style and I fell in love with this pants when I saw it. I'll make the leg of the pants tighter.



This one might be a little difficult, but I'm DETERMINED!lol. I just love this skirt (the first two), the shape and the ruffles.

FOOD!!!

I enjoy cooking only WHEN I want to.lol and this urge usually stems from pictures or recipe I see online. Here are a few pictures of the foods i took last year. I found the recipe for this sausage roll from www.avartsycooking.com.It was a little bit salty, but my family enjoyed it. I'll make it again this Christmas.
