♥ When She Does Cook
I don't normally cook. Heck I rarely cook. Well, prolly because I can't cook.(nope, not even Maggi Mee, something just always manages to go wrong-not enough water/too much water, noodle too soft/too hard etc.)
But I do know how to cook one thing. Pasta. Well, sorta, it's edible so it's considered cooking. Right?
And I only started cooking this because mom was in France for 3 weeks and I am the eldest of two daughters, didn't want daddy to starve while mommy was away.
Let me briefly brief you on a 'How to'
(Do not attempt this at home, I am NOT a professional)
First and foremost, I must profess my love for Streaky Bacon.
I LOVE STREAKY BACON!
Okay, now that's over and done with. We begin.
Mom wanted me to use EVOO (extra virgin olive oil, and yes, I watch Rachael Ray)but I scoffed at her suggestion. Also, moms are ALWAYS out to spoil your recipe.
I trim the fat off the bacon and fry them. Fry them until oil oozes out (also, I have no clue on how to use cooking lingo so yeah)Refer to pic below.
Part of the reason why I don't cook (aside from the fact that I can't) is that it's kinda boring. SO I had Channel V on (yes I run from pan to TV while I cook, no glamor TV in the kitchen all) La Roux was on at that particular moment when my pork fats was crackling happily in the pan. (Mom disapproves of such unhealthy fats but again, moms are out to get your recipes)
After the fatty bits of the bacon is crispy and ready, scoop it out and leave the oil. We then add the rest of the bacon to the oil and fry! Refer to pic below.
Some people would say a family that cooks together say together. What was the rest of my family doing while I slave on the stove?
Once the bacon are a bit the red red, add button mushrooms (oh cut them beforehand, mine came from a can)
Then I add my special secret recipe sauce in and stir.
Fine, it's not a secret and not so special. It's Prego's instant sauce something something.The pic would have given it away anyways. And that, is pasta, boiling. (pic below)
AND THIS IS HOW THE FRIED FATS LOOK LIKE!!!
Once the concoction begin to simmer a bit bit, you add cheeeeeeeeeeeese (I don't fancy cheese much but when you cook, you ask the majority)
Some people do sports and all for exercise and to sweat and all, I cook. And karaoke. And oh, one other thing.
This is getting boring. SO we fast forward to when the pasta is done and we add it to the sauce and VOILA!
This is where I lay back and stare at my fried bacon fats and take pictures of it.
Look at how oily it is. How gorgeous!
One last fuzzy look at it before it ends up in my stomach and which in turn will go on to clog my arteries.
Sekian.
