Theoretically it is cheaper to make my own bread.... In reality, the family likes the bread so much I'm making a LOT more bread than we used to buy 😭 Honey-wheat in the middle.

My best honey-wheat loaf yet 😁

Asaro with red sweet potatoes was loading+ oven roasted chicken + fried plantain. Forgot to take pictures when it was done but...

...continuation

The celebrant planned for a nice diner, so we ended up with a 'Fisherman's Seafood Platter'. It's got seabass, mussels, octopus, shrimps, calamari and a bed of pilaf.

This was REMARKABLY tasty ! 😋

Yaaaaaaassss

emperorz:
How come the coal is pink or is that a light reflection i presume?

A little surf and turf today. Forgot to oil the grate but I forgive me 😆

Hi!

The first one is Whatsapp and the second one was changed due to NIN drama. They only go through during business hours M-F 9-5 and Saturday 10-5 so I'll update the signature now.

Thank you for calling my attention to it!

Look what I did today! My first attempt at pizza 😀

The kids said it was better than the pizza we order so now I'm in trouble 😅

Made a half chicken/half chicken, bell pepper, onion, basil (grown on the balcony😁) for hubby and youngest and a pepperoni, bell pepper, onion for middle and I.

Gucciboy:
Pls are you based in Nigeria or which country?

Yup, I'm in Nigeria currently. Bought the fish from Makoko.

Finally gave into my craving and went to the grocery store to overpay for an imported ribeye 🥹. Went home and cooked it medium-rare with some skillet potatoes and an egg. Craving satisfied.

Grilled pomfret (pompano) with fries and steamed cauliflower & broccoli.

Red snapper and shrimp piccata on vermicelli rice with steamed honey carrots and garlic green beans

Kept it real simple today. Mashed potatoes and gravy with garlic and herb chicken and steamed broccoli.

Lamb biryani. Prepped yesterday, cooked today.

dailyflavour:

4 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste (or just smash ginger and garlic together)

So for about two weeks I get text messages during the day saying "I brought out chicken breast". I finally got the hint 🤣

Still not over the high of eating bread I made myself😌
ShopRite, SPAR and co, una no go see me again lai lai.

HeavenlyBang:
Xterra is the only body-on-frame vehicle there, I believe. Should be the most rugged.

Second

Dinner was red snapper escovich with fried dumplings and steamed cabbage and carrots. Forgot to take a picture plated as no one has patience for that😬

FORGET stand mixers. I found out I can make perfect dough in two minutes. How you ask? A yam pounder 🤯 made two big and one small milk bread loaf, one wheat loaf and one oat loaf in about 2.5 hours using the quick-rise 200-degree cheat at https://www.modernhoney.com/best-homemade-one-hour-whole-wheat-bread/comment-page-10/#comments the loaves doubled in size in about 20 minutes😁

Judge for yourself 😏

Igbaf:
Do you mind sharing the recipe for the wheat bread? Good job 👍

Sure! https://bakingamoment.com/soft-whole-wheat-bread/

Only changes I made were:
1) fed all the honey to the yeast
2) used ghee instead of butter
3) used Maldon, instead of sea salt


I intend to incorporate the quick-rise trick found here next time

armyofone:
Nice! Please what's in the can deep inside the oven ?

Water to steam and keep the top from crusting before it can fully rise

White bread for the house, Wheat bread for hubby😁

Not sure how the air fryer cut off at the start of cooking, so the white loaves deflated a bit before I noticed and restarted the fryer ☹️.

Now I just need a stand mixer😅

Couldn't find a great-tasting wheat bread for hubby that wouldn't require one of the children as collateral, so I took up baking. It's smaller because I've been testing out different variations. Finally found the perfect recipe! Seven-year-old wants it all and I have to tell her it's special bread for Daddy's health😁
