拍拖週年紀念
- 鴨腿……2隻
- 橙……4個
- 煙肉……3-4片
- 蒜頭……2瓣
- 百里香……4-5支
- 燒一鍋水,待水開了將鴨腿放入煮10分鐘﹔取出鴨腿,浸在冷水裡待用
- 橙3個搾汁,1個切出橙肉作裝飾,及切出大概1湯匙的橙皮絲(記得不要切到白色的部份,會苦的)
- 煙肉切細,蒜頭切末
- 抹乾鴨腿,在鴨腿上撒下少許鹽及胡椒做調味
- 取一鍋燒熱至冒煙,不用放油,皮向下將鴨腿置鑊中,此舉是要給鴨腿上色,要不燴製出來的鴨腿會很慘白。
- 取出鴨腿,待用。將平底鑊的油倒出,留下大概1湯匙左右的鴨油
- 倒入蒜末及煙肉炒香,倒入橙汁及、橙皮絲及百里香,煮至橙汁燒開,將鴨腿放入,加蓋轉小火燴煮45-50分鐘至汁液濃稠,或至鴨肉軟稔
- 這個部驟我是用法琊鍋做,挺方便的
- 汁液試味,如味道不夠可加調味,或雞粉
- 鴨腿上碟,淋上汁液

My Preparation for Christmas: Food
As I mentioned before, we do not need to prepare any food for Christmas as we go back to Wales for Christmas and New Year so we can just put our feet up. hehe. However, sine I have learnt how to make an iced fruit cake I have got into a habit of making fruit cake for christmas.
Some of our good friends tried the fruit cake I made at the wedding said it was one of the best cake they ever had so I thought it would be nice to give some cakes away as christmas presents.
I really pushed myself to the limit this year by making one 6-inch, one 4-inch and 4 little fruit cakes, batches of cookies and mince pies.
Looking at this picture may make you wonder that there is one cake short!! This is because the 6-inch cake I have made isn't a christmas cake but a birthday cake as Dylan's Dad's birthday is on 27th December. Dylan's mother always buys a cake for christmas so I now always make mine into a birthday cake.
The decoration on this cake is daffodil as it's an emblem of Wales. It was tough to do the flowers as I don't have the proper tools. I could only make them with my hands and a few toothpicks. My small hands came in handy!
I was going to make some gingerbread men but I was running out of time so I went for an easier option: pressed cookies. I wanted to make it more festive so I used the christmas tree disc for the cookies. Somehow I was feeling adventrous and wanted to make the cookies green as they were supposed to be christmas. Having healthy eating in my head, I went for green tea powder rather than green food colouring.
When I showed Dylan the cookie dough before I put them into the oven, he was so horrible. I asked him,"What do you think this is?" He said spontaneously,"Turd" Well, to be fair, it does a bit but he shouldn't have said that.(cry......) When I told my colleague, Julie, about this, she said he was one brave man to mess with me. The 4-inch cake has gone to Julie.
They do look like Christmas Trees, don't they??
I didn't take pictures of the mince pies as I was in such a rush to get everything ready. I have to thank my friend Jessie here because without her sending me the cookie bags and pretty food wrappers I wouldn't be able to present all the homemade food beautifully.
Here is the hamper we put together for John and Roger (one each!) as we really appreciate them as friends, and also they did a brilliant job as photographers at our wedding which we can never thank enough.
With a little gift tag I did on computer:
Here's a hamper for Dylan's aunt, I really like that tin of biscuit from M&S because it looks so vintage:

沙嗲豬肉串+蘑菇茴香莖炒酷斯酷斯
- 豬肉(切薄片)
- 沙嗲醬
- 黃薑粉
- 生抽(醬油)
- 生粉 … 少許
- 將所有材料混合﹐醃過夜
- 將肉片串在竹籤上﹐用平底鑊煎熟即可
- 醃料沒有一定的份量﹐我喜歡放一點點生抽﹐覺得能強調鮮味﹔加黃薑粉是因為喜歡沙嗲串艷麗的黃色
- 茴香莖 … 1個(切粒)
- 蘑菇 … 適量(切粒)
- 酷斯酷斯 … 適量
- 黃薑粉 … 適量
- 鹽﹑胡椒少 … 適量(調味)

- 燒熱油鑊﹐倒入茴香莖及蘑菇﹐炒至蘑菇軟身及輕微轉色

- 檸檬汁 … 1湯匙
- 粟粉 … 1/2茶匙
- 清水 … 1湯匙

- 過篩隔去紅樹莓籽
- 將已過篩的紅樹莓汁置回鍋中以慢火加熱﹔粟粉混和清水﹐倒入紅樹莓汁中續煮至濃稠﹐倒出放涼備用
- 焗爐預熱攝氏180度
- 準備梳乎厘用小杯﹐小杯內薄薄抹上牛油﹐倒入份量以外的糖粉搪勻至小杯內都黏有糖粉﹐備用
- 蛋白放乾淨碗內﹐餘下的糖粉逐少倒入﹐蛋白打發至企身(就是倒轉不掉下就可以了)
- 將1/3的蛋白倒入(3)﹐拌勻﹐將餘下的蛋白倒入﹐輕力拌入 (即使不拌至顏色完全混合也沒問題)
- 將混合物倒入預備好的小杯內﹐沿杯邊用拇指畫一小坑﹐有助梳乎厘垂直上升
- 放入焗爐焗10 - 15分鐘
- 出爐撒上糖霜(icing sugar)﹐立即享用 (否則會下陷)
- 我用的小杯(是湯碗咧)比較大﹐所以焗了20分鐘
