Your Name on a Grain of Rice

Hey

While I'm home for summer, I've been given a night a week where I have to cook dinner. My sister has Wednesdays (although she has been out for the last 3) and I have Thursdays although I cooked today this week.

Night I attempted to make paella for the first. The first time I tried it was last year when I was in Spain and I quite liked it minus the seafood, so I made a chicken, chorizo sausage and pepper paella. I put a bit to much stock in it this time but its a learning curve. I served it will a tomato and herb bread which I didn't make.


First attempt at Paella


It didn't look like there was as much extra stock once it had been served up.

I have also been collecting the Cake Decorating magazines, so I made an apple cake that was in issue 20 for pudding. I need to turn the oven slightly next time as I have a fan-assisted oven which temperatures were not given for, so the apples on top caught a bit.


It doesn't look to bad once it's dusted with icing sugar
