WEEKLY MENU

It has been a while since my last post... Not really a busy week, but only a bit desmotivated to write... Must have been the heat... It is getting very hot... To be honest; I am not looking forward for Summer to come!!! Well today's post will be a display of what I have been cooking this past week:


This cake I did on Friday. It is a "only yolk" VANILLA CAKE with smooth buttercream and custard topping. For the filling I used more buttercream and strawberry conserve. It was very yummy! Today we eat the last piece and still was moist and delicious!


For Friday dinner, we had this easy and nutricional VEGETABLE & TOFU NOODLES stir fried. I add some garlic, ginger and sweet chili sauce which gave the heat needed for this dish. Just a nice bowl of noodles!


Yesterday was a weird day at my place... We did not have a normal routine and even the meals were all over the place... I didn't cook a proper lunch neither dinner. My son had to go to a Cadet Camp and we had to wake up very early, so by 10:30 am we were already hungry and we snacked all day long. This deep fried dish is called CORN DOG. I don't know why the corn name to it, but it is just a sausage deeped into a basic batter and fried until crisp. We served that with a tomato sauce.


When I have finished the corn dogs, I had a lot of batter left over, so I add some sugar and vanilla extract to it and deep fried to make this yummy SUGAR DOUGHNUTS... Dusted with caster sugar and cinnamon... Delicious! My husband love them. They are fluffy, sweet and very naughty! *It is weekend!*


VEGETABLES QUICHE. This one I have done together with a friend last Wednesday (our cooking day!). I was in a hurry and the pastry didn't cook the way supposed to, but still was nice and the vegies very tasty.


That's my so loved HOMEMADE PIZZA... It did take a long time for me to master it, but today I have to say that my pizza is a very nice one... I am very proud of this achievement... I had to learned doesn't matter what... I would not have forgiven me (I am married to an Italian man). I am a Brazilian person but I KNOW HOW TO MAKE A WONDERFUL PIZZA DOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
