Yet another dessert to clear the fridge, banana oat crumble. Crumble, pies, cobblers are the best way to clear fruits! These used so little flour!
Banana Oat Crumble
4 -5 bananas, sliced into circles
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup oats
Sprinkle of cinnamon powder
4 tbsp butter
Chopped walnuts
Chocolate chips
Put the sliced bananas in ramekins, I used 6. Add in the walnuts. In another bowl, mix the flour, sugar, cinnamon and oats well. Add in butter. I find that using hands is the best, and after all you're going to sprinkle them over the bananas. I added in chocolate chips last, cos I forgot about it, and seems like it was a good thing too so it can hold some shape! Haha. I'm using Aalst chocolate, which is yummy but way cheaper than Ghirardelli or Valrhona.
Husband approved! Cos it has chocolate chips -_-"
Yesterday Junior did the first part of his holiday project, which is to cook something healthy and document in a scrapbook. So yesterday was just the cooking so I can take pictures to print today. We made potato salad, and baked chicken wings. The baked chicken wings was a total hit! We did 1 kilo, but it was snapped up so fast, I made another 1 kilo batch and that was snapped up too! Even the little princess loves it, for someone who doesn't really eat meat.
I boiled the potatoes with skin on, so he could peel it off and cut into cubes. Then he mixed them up with low fat mayo, greek yoghurt, spring onions, black pepper (which he tried to crack), salt and smoked paprika.
And tada! All done. Looks like mashed potatoes instead. HAHA.
Next was the chicken wings. He, once again, tried to crack the black pepper cos he loves black pepper. I love hearing him say black pepper so cute. Haha. It was a total agaration of Nando's sauce, kicap manis, smoked paprika, Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, garlic powder and brown sugar. Don't ask me for the measurements, I don't do such things.
I didn't have a roasting rack, so I improvised using celery sticks. Clever me didn't line my pan with aluminium foil and all the oils and extra sauce ended up caramelised, but I did so for the second batch.
Baked the chicken wings skin side up for 1 hour at 190 degrees Celsius and here it is! YUMMY okay. Junior was soo proud of himself. He said it's his first time cooking, cooking is easy, no one can cook like me, and many other comments along those lines.
Aww so proud of my little boy :) I should cook with him more. And get that little princess involved too. At the rate she's going, she doesn't want to be in the kitchen at all -_-
