For those who don't know, I sometimes run a poll on my blog and let people vote for what I will do for my next cooking challenge. I chose things that I 'think' will be a challenge, and something far from what I am used to cooking. When the poll closes and there is a winner, I grocery shop, and cook! I have hit many walls with this, sometimes being new to a country means its harder to locate the things you need. I had many problems with ingredients - ham hock, quinoa, spices, polenta, etc. Except its one of those things, once the challenge is over, I find the items in stores! I came across ham hocks the other day and was really annoyed for some reason!
Anyway, I wanted to centralise my cooking challenges for the year somehow, so here are the links:
January 22, 2011 - Stuffed lamb with potatoes
January 29, 2011 - Beef 'burgundy' bourguignon
March 05, 2011 - Beef Wellington
April 30, 2011 - Fishy Challenge - Quinoa Paella
Sweet Stuff - Glazed Pear and Macadamia Tart
August 5, 2011 - Little Things
I also might add my other favourite blog entries, but more on that later....
