Christmas update

Christmas AGAIN! That went quick. Not a bad thing either, as it must mean I enjoyed the year a lot. It's been a busy one (obviously, due to lack of posts) but mostly fun.

Cooking hasn't been anything much lately, with only a few gems discovered in the recipe department recently. One of which was last night's effort - Asian inspired pork belly with stir fry veggies.

The pork crackling was perfect, as was the meat itself. It was all so good, we ate first and took photos second!

And my other little cracker of a recipe was an instant sponge 'cake' that I found on the 'net. 1 and a half minutes in the microwave and you've got a yummy sponge cake. http://lifehacker.com/make-a-surprisingly-moist-sponge-cake-in-the-microwave-1028723713

I didn't have baking powder, so I just used SR flour instead (and no normal flour of course!).
They rose beautifully.

Next post will have some of the inevitable Christmas decorations and general Christmasy goings on...
