Technology

At technology we were doing cooking (world cup styles) every day we would prepare 2 dishes from different countries competing in the FIFA world cup. On Wednesday afternoon Mr Pearse told us we would be making  Brigadeiro which is a Brazilian sweet. Brigadeiro is very quick and easy to make with only a few ingredients. On Thursday morning we made Paella from Spain. Paella is  a Spanish dish of rice. It contains saffron, chicken, seafood, cooked and served in a large shallow pan, but we did not have a shallow pan. So we cooked it in a normal pan and served on a plate. On Thursday afternoon we made Fajitas from Mexico which is like a soft taco.On Friday morning we made Tagine from Algeria. Tagine is  a North African stew of spiced meat and vegetables prepared by slow cooking in a shallow earthenware cooking dish with a tall, conical lid.On Friday afternoon we made Pavlova  from Australia (because New Zealand isn't in the world cup!) Mine and Karmas first attempted failed terribly, but we ended up producing a great pav (and delicious) because I got the biggest piece!  I decorated mine with cream, sprinkles and kiwi fruit!

  1. Your delicious descriptions are making me dribble, yummy! What do you think would be different if you cooked the paella in a shallow pan?
