cooking lesson #1

for the 1st time, i tried to bake bread pudding. i was 1st introduced on how to do it from Radly's mom. the ingredient is minimal with simple instructions. yes, yes, my type of cooking. furthermore, since i have 1-day expired bread, so why don't i use it rather than letting it to rot.

since i couldnt get the recipe from her, i managed to find it online and thanks to our super modern technology, i found a video which eventually became my master chef. it turns out well in the end. it was not that sweet but the apples and raisins compensate it anyway. the bread was also soft. however, i wish i know how to do the sauce as well. overall, i gave it 4/5 as a 1st timer.

so, here is the recipe. credit goes to :

APPLE RAISIN BREAD PUDDING

SERVES 4

2 chopped apples

2 tbsp butter

3 cups of bread cubes

4 eggs

2 cups of milk

1/3 cup of sugar

1. melt the butter

2. add in the apples and stir for 5-7 minutes

3. add in the bread + raisin + milk + egg + vanilla + sugar

4. put the mixture in an oven-cooking dish

5. bake for 45-55 minutes OR until the crust is golden brown at 180 degrees Celcius

NOTE 1 : do not bake for too long or else u will get a burnt topping (JUST LIKE MINE!!)

NOTE 2 : this is actually my 2nd go on the recipe. The 1st was an absolute failure. I accidentally put in SALT instead of SUGAR! so yea, i got sea-water pudding in the end.

BUT THIS IS MY 1ST GO ON BAKING WITH THE NEW CONVECTION OVEN!

DON'T i deserve pats on my shoulders and someone to do the cleanings for me?
