Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Pasta

I’ve been on a sugar high of late and I’m slowly, but surely realising that this is not a very good thing. Although I keep telling my mum that I will be a more conscious eater once I hit the 25 mark, I know that starting sooner could only hold me in good stead. To […]

Three Pepper Spaghetti Carbonara

I’ve got to admit, I have a fear of raw eggs. Actually, fear is an understatement; it’s more like paranoia. And that it why it took me a lot of reading up to finally make some Spaghetti Carbonara. Right now Carbonara veterans and lovers probably think I’m crazy, and will tell me that the eggs […]

7 Experiments

Yes I managed to complete my December POA. Most dishes turned out to be brilliant, some mediocre and some (just one actually) simply appalling. I made some in beginning of the month (chocolate chunk cookies, chicken quesadillas, Lasagna) and rest of them were last minute. Some were a breeze to make and required simple assembling […]

Soft, Juicy and Tender

Chicken breasts have been deemed to be very healthy by nutritionists. They are high in protein and low in calories. But what’s good for you, isn’t good for the grill! I have tried various cooking methods and marinates to get the chicken just right but despite all my attempts I didn’t always achieve the succulent […]
