I would have really enjoyed breakfast on Saturday. I made these and they were great, just that my kid brother had just returned home for vacation and he ate almost every one so I think I had one and a quarter. Anyway, I enjoyed it. Hope you do too.

When I was a kid, Christmas was so much fun. My aunt would spend Christmas with us and she and my mum would make so many Christmas treats; cakes, pies, doughnuts, flour chips etc. I would help them make the goodies and steal some for myself and my brothers whilst working.

There is something special about this dish. It is slightly sweet and yet spicy. You can feel the slight sweetness and also the saltiness. It truly is special and you MUST try it even if you are not found of having your savory dishes taste a bit sweet.

With February being the month of sauces, this is a must try. It's good and very easy to make. I made it on Monday morning before work and I was early to work so u can be sure that it definitely is quick to make.  BON APPETITE  INGREDIENTS ¾ Pound Minced Meat 2 Onions 2 small Green Pepper Powdered Pepper Corn Flour 2 Garlic Flour 1 Egg METHOD Season meat with some salt, powdered pepper, (grounded ginger, garlic and onions).

I was really craving for some mushrooms and when I asked where I could get some, I was told they were not in season yet. With all the noise I make about food, you would think I’d know when these things are in season, but it isn’t me; it is this confused weather. Let’s be real, this Global Warming business is no joke. We have been having “Hot and Cold”,” Yes and No” weather so long I’ve lost track of when it was supposed to start raining. So you can imagine how excited I was a when I went to the ‘Commercial Area’ and saw mushrooms sitting on a vegetable vendor’s table. They were not the wild ones but they would do. I could have gone with soup but it would take too long and I really wanted to eat some mushrooms so I made a Sausage and Mushroom sauce and it was great. SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM SAUCE   Ingredients 8 or more Mushrooms 3 Sausages 2 medium sized Onions Butter/oil 1 large Green pepper Corn Flour 3 Garlic Powdered Pepper 1 thumb sized Ginger Curry Lemon pepper/ mixture of blac...

I have been on a quest lately. Gathering date, planning my methodology, conducting alpha and beta tests to get the PERFECT CHOCOLATE CAKE. It was not an easy run. In the process I discovered the following ·          Chocolate cake will burn very easily ·          Sometimes it will refuse to rise ·          Other times it will start to burn on the outside whilst the inside is not really done ·          Sometimes it will crumble ·          I will stick at the base of the baking tray and break up ·          LASTLY APPRECIATE ANY GOOD CHOCOLATE CAKE MAKER Before I say any other thing I must thank my “Guinea Pigs/ Lab rats” for their contribution towards this research. From the people at my office to my mum and Mansa, thanks guys for availing yourselves...
