Vegetable Curry

Oh this has to be one of my most fave and simple meals.

Vegetable Curry

Here i have frying in the pan is

1,Purple onion

8,Mushroom

1,Egg plant

And 2 zucchini

I fry them for about 3 min on high heat then add 1 to 2 table spoons of curry depends on how hot you want it.

Cook for another minute then

Add 600 mils cooking cream (thickened cream) and a few cherry tomato's cooked for a further 5 minutes on a high heat

Then serve it next to some rice i have added some egg noodles into my rice while cooking doesn't look so boring for the kids.

And for all the men who like meat in there meal like my man i added some diced rump in his but i love it just with the veg.

There you have it a meal in under 20min cooking and prep time.

Will serve 4 with rice.

I got this recipe from my boss it is on the menu in the RESTAURANT

i work at although i have made a couple alteration with the serving as it is served with vegetable patties.

Pork on The Spit

A few weeks back i posted about our Christmas party at home we where goinng to have.

Well this is one of the thing i was really excited about because we where having a Pork on The Spit and seeing some of my family and friends aswell of course lol.

You see ever since i can remember my farther (now passed away) did catering mainly for people we new on his time off from being a police officer just because he loved to cook a Spit

So after all these years of watching my dad do this i decided this was gonna be the year we would give it a go

I used my dads 20 yr + spit.

The pig all wired up and cooking

Marinade i put on every 30 min

I stuffed the pig belly full of lemon thyme garlic and onions and sowed it up and slow cooked it on the spit for 6 hrs i made up a dressing of thyme and oil and used a lemon branch to brush the pig with during the cooking process and adding heaps of salt.

And i tell you what i reckon dad would of been proud of us cause it was so yummy

Oh and one of my GUESTs made these and the kids loved them..

I was so worked up over my pig i forgot to take a photo of all the other goodies i did oopps.

One hot summer day

Justin drinking out of the garden sprinkler on one of out not so many hot summer days.

loving the water

cheeky boy

This little guy just love the water.

Tomato's

We visited my grandparents

while we where away and my gran loves growing her own produce

Well what caught my eye was this her rather large tomato plant it was nearly over the roof and full of tomato's there not ready yet but they will be when i go back for a visit in the next week or 2 yum.

This is what i found all over this bush big bunch of tomato's

My grandfather gave me a few tips to get my tomato's to grow like this well next time i will be trying it out.

My gran has be growing her produce for years and she showed me jars of her own seed from last years produce all all types of stuff she has grown.

I have never took notice of her garden before lol now that I'm growing my own stuff it was hard not to notice to bad my phone went flat i would of taken some more pics to share.

So i was a bit disappoint cause my plant is not even as half as big and with no tomato's well i thought i had none but then when i got home i found these.
