Cooking:Cauliflower Soup. Roast Lamb, Tandoori Lamb Cutlets, Grilled Lamb Cutlets, Scalloped Potatoes and Mint Sauce.

All for dinner =) So full afterwards.
Tried to make a 3 course dinner all by myself yesterday. Things didn't exactly go to plan and it ended up taking me 2 and a half hours to plate dinner up and I decided to scap dessert.

Cauliflower Soup: Recipe off taste.com.au except I forgot to add the cream at the end.
Roast Lamb: Simple roast lamb with just rosemary and no garlic (cos I couldn't be bothered)
Scalloped potatoes: Recipe also off taste.com.au. Used the mandolin slicer to slice potatoes, way way way faster.
Grilled Lamb Cutlets: Simple salt, pepper, rosemary and oil. Then grilled on the griddle pan.
Tandoori Lamb Cutlets: Brush tandoori paste onto lamb, then grill. Use sparingly, maybe mix with a tiny bit of yoghurt as the paste by itself is quite salty.

Looks pretty bad yeah? Tasted better than it looked. The chilli really packed a punch.

Yummy lamb cutlets.

Lesson learnt from today. Too many dishes for my skill level. Gotta start off simple and master doing them all quickly before combining. 

Chinese Roast-Tai Hing Roast, Tai Wai

Yesterday we went and had Chinese Roast. Unfortunately I had half a packed of mini spring rolls just before parents decided to go out for lunch and therefore I was not hungry at all. We ordered a Roast Goose on Rice, Roast Pork on Rice and a Eight Roasts on Rice.
Roast Goose on Rice:  I have to say that this place has gone downhill with their roasts. The roast goose was tough but not very fatty. It was about the standard we get in Australia. At least you get a lot more meat here.





Roast Pork on Rice: I have to say this was the worst dish we ordered. Roast Pork isn't easy to make, but I'm pretty sure they used the wrong cut of meat. The entire piece of roast pork was meat, no fat whatsoever, very disappointed. The skin wasn't crunchy.

Eight Roasts on Rice:  This one was the best out of the three dishes. The roasts meats were pretty average but I guess it was pretty cheap at just over HK$50. Came with an entire salted duck egg, a treasure in Australia but an average ingredient in HK.

Vedict? Recommend? No, this place was pretty good when I went 3 years ago, but now it's under par. DEFINITELY better chinese roasts in HK, way better. Was quite disappointed.
