Cooking Fun!

During this weekend, I cooked a lot! :P

I made Chinese dumplings and some cantonese dishes for my host family. However, they seemed not to admire the food... :(  I know sometimes Chinese food may taste or look strange to them, but that's really what I love and I just want to share with them! Alright, I am going to have Chinese dumplings for the rest of my week because there are still many in the fridge :(

Apart from Chinese food, I also leanrt to make lasagne in a proper way. I used to make lasagne in Hong Kong but it's just a instant one. It's ready made and I just baked it! (or even reheat it...) Now I find that it's not that difficult to make a homemade one. I just put the lasagne sheet, mince beef and white source layers by layers, and it's nearly done (but of course you have to add flavour to it).  It looks really nice! The lasagne is now in the fridge, and we are going to bake it tomorrow for dinner. I just can't wait to taste it! yummy :)

The most lovely food I learnt during this week is the BANOFFEE PIE! It's a cake made of banana and toffee! It's so sweet and I am a suger lover! I like to eat every sweet food. This is the first time I ate and made a banoffee pie, and now I just fell in love with it! I'll try to make one in HK and show my mother what I have learnt (in cooking) here! Compare to Hong Kong, desserts in the UK like pudding, yoghurt, cheese cakes, ice-cream, pies, etc are much cheaper. I have also planned to go Betty's teashop for a very traditional English teaset! That's why I think I must gain a lot of weight after these 6 weeks.

What's next I am going to make a white chocolate cheese cake! See if it'll be another good one! ;-)
