Mary Jane - Food Technology

Today in food tech we learned how to make a pasta salad and here are the ingredients and the method we learned,

Ingredients - 

Pasta / We used macorone pasta 

Tamato 

Onioun 

Mayo 

Ham / Bacon 

Method - 

The first thing you want to do is take your pasta out of the bag and put around 3 cups of water into a pot, after adding your 3 cups of water you want to place your pot on the top of the stove. Again after finishing that you can place your pasta into the pot, wait for the pasta and water to start boiling and make sure you stir it so it doesnt get stuck to the pot and if you dont know how to cook pasta than get a fork or spoon get the pasta out and run under cold water, after you have done that touch it and see if its soft if it is its finished.

After doing that you want to cut your other ingredients into small pieces and than add your pasta to those ingredients

Today at Technology we made a delicious small mini quiche,

Ingrediants -

Egg

Ham / Bacon

Milk

Pastery 

Cheese 

Non Stick spray.

Method -

First you want to get 2 eggs and 1 cup of milk when you have finsihed grabbing these you need to whisk the two together until mixed well after you have finished whisking you egg and milk you want to add your ham or bacan, Make sure they are chopped into small pieces when you have also finished cutting your ham or bacon you want to add that to you egg and milk mixture if you havent noticed we are doing the wet things first.

Once you have completed this you are going to cut your pastery into small circles and if you do not have enough than with the left over dough you can cut it into as much more as you need and than roll it out. 

When you have finished cutting your dough place it into your muffin tray or and circled tray you have if you and make sure you like it with something that makes it not stick and if you want you can make a big one, With your egg mixture you want to poor it into a cup make sure none of the ham or bacon gets into it because you want to add that mixture last.

When you are done than you can add your ham and chese ohh and wait dont put it into the oven yet add your egg and milk mixture and than put it into the oven at 180 and than wait until it get nice and brown but not too brown, When its finished dig in and eat it.

I loved making this because it was fun and very cool to make and I also think I did this really good but one thing I do need to work on is finding the equipments becauses I always have to go searching for it I also think I did it good because I tried and tried and it worked but again I do need to work on a few things like finding things and watching things because sometimes my groups stuff burns because I dont check on it all the time but it is getting better because I am watching it more and I am also working on that because I dont want to get in trouble or make my group made by burning it but like I said it is getting a lot better and I enjoy the challenge of making things.

Hope you enjoy blog post.

Today at Tamaki primary the year 7's and 8's went to Technology again, It was really fun because I am in the cooking group it is fun to be in the cooking group because we get to make and eat food and today I was so happy to hear about what we where going to make.

Today we made Patato salad with chicken kabab wrapped in teriaky sause I thought that it was going to be really hard to make this but it was amazingly simple to do, When I started I was so pleased that it was easy because I didnt want to get in trouble if I made it wrong.

Once we started do everthing I got into the hand of it because it was really fun, My Job was to peel and grate the carrots it was fun, after we had finished everything we made it look pretty and nice and than dug in to all the yum flavors it had and thank you to Mrs Tuipulotu.
