टुडे २२ ऑफ़ अक्टूबर 2009

Hello,

Not a good start to the blog cant get the camera to work.
But enjoyed making food tonight.

How i go about cooking day to day....
I don't shop with 30 menus in mind i shop for what i can afford and what looks good.
I estimate about 20 meals for cooking at the stove and the around 7 meals for outside cooking and yes the odd take away or meal out to make up the rest of the month.
So on returning home from work i will start the hunt what meats we have,then what vegetables,with pasta or potatoes or pulses,sauces,spices,marinades and breads.
I then decide on what is the main ingredient for that dish, if i am using pasta its about the sauce. If its meat its all about the marinade. I then start putting the meal together on what will adapt well with the main ingredient. I don't always get it right but we usually have a great meal.

Braai (BBQ) What is a braai you may ask?
I am born in South Africa and its what we call a BBQ ,simple.
If i could afford it i would Braai everyday but my style is over sized and the more the merrier. It is all about the meat at least two different meats.
I also roast/smoke meats and have outdoor stews on my Potjie pot (cauldron pot).
But what i like most about it all is i am outside in my own world no hassle or worries totally chilled.

Enough for today

Fatboy
