Family cook off #2


It's close, both boys have outdone themselves !!!
Last night Buzzy took technique to a whole new level. He marinated, grilled on the BBQ, fried on the stove, and cooked in the saucepan!

Dinner: Lemongrass chicken with rice and salad
Dessert: massive servings of caramelised dumplings




 They better not get used to fizzy drink at dinner time.

 OH&S was questionable….



What he lacked in presentation, he made up in flavour. 

Pop joined us for dinner and a truck load of dumplings.

We finished off the night (complementary of Buzzy's $30 budget)
with even more sweets for the final Origin match. With two kids born in NSW and two in QLD, we were split even.

Whilst the Maroons won last nights game, they lost the last two, seeing the Blues take home the series!

And as my eloquent brother in law would say, we were 'as full as a fat lady's sock' (or 'a 24 hr colostomy bag')

Well done fellas,
I hope your future wives appreciate my training!

  2. Wow, well done Buzz. A big more complicated, impressive. Was impressed with the maturity of no 'face in the plate' but missed my belly laughter moment;) So score, score??

  4. Caramel Dumplings are a winter favourite in these parts, though I'm not sure even my ever-hungry crew could follow them up with iced donuts!
