Last week we cooked Breakfast muffins, these where really yum we did end up changing around some of the ingredients but here is the updated recipe.

Ingredients 

1/2 Tbsp olive oil

4 slices ham

4 cherry tomatoes

1 1/2 cups self-raising flour

1 Tbsp parsley chopped/ diced

1/2 tasty cheese

1/2 smoked paprika

2 eggs

to taste sea salt and cracked black pepper

1/2 cup milk

Directions

1. preheat oven to 185c on fan bake.
2. line 8 large muffin holes (or a regular 12 tray) with baking paper squares large enough to come up the sides. (We used a canola oil spray)
3. heat the oil in a frying pan and saute onions for 3-4 mins until the onion is soft. Set aside to cool.
4. in a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, parsley, flour, cheese, paprika and season.
5. add the cooked onions and ham and stir to combine.
6. whisk together eggs and milk and fold into other ingredients gently until just combined.
7. spoon into prepared trays and bake for 12-15 mins until golden and puffed.

Things I will next time definitely add more ham and cheese and less parsley,
Things I learned, I learned how to saute properly and now I can do that easier next

Chicken and rice patties // Home Economics //2019

Last week we cooked Chicken and rice patties.
These were pretty easy to make an was very yum. Things that I would change for next time, I would use more spray on our tins and cook the rice a bit longer as it was quite hard to eat, Our teacher ended up preparing the chicken(poached) for us but I would have just cut it then cook in a  pan because it was hard to shred the way she done it.

I learnt that i should focus more when im doing the mis en place because i was a bit confused into how long before I should have turnt on the oven, i also learnt a whole knew recipe.

Things we changed in the recipes

2 cups rice

½ carrot

1-2 spring onions stalks

¾ cup of grated cheese

2 eggs

Next time I cook this I will probably no use any meat, I will add some spinach and red onion and maybe some capsicum. Other than what will change next time I really enjoy cooking this meal.
