Home Economics - Week 8 Souvlaki

I was not able to cook on Friday as I was sick but I completed other unfinished work instead

Home Economics - Week 7 Pizza

In foods last week on Friday we made pizza. First, we made the base out of yogurt and self-raising flour n a bit of salt. Once we'd made the base everyone went and got different vegetables and meats to add onto it. Our group got ham and salami which we cut into strips and put into two separate bowls and then we moved onto the vegetables. We cut up the vegetables which were capsicum, pineapples, onions, and mushrooms. Next, we had to grate the cheese and we couldn't have any leftover. We rolled the dough and cut it into 4 even lots and made them into a ball before squishing them out into a circle. we spread the pizza base sauce and then added whatever ingredients we wanted on top and left them to cook. Our group worked pretty well and efficiently and I think we shared out the jobs pretty well and the pizza tasted good too.

Home Economics - Week 6 Sushi

I was not at school on Friday but in class they made sushi.

Home Economics - Week 5 Fish n Chips

Last week in home economics we made fish n chips. To start off each group were given potatoes but since our teacher wanted to try different stuff, my group was given a different type of potato. We had to cut them into resonable sizes of chips and then put them in oil and salt and pepper as well as a bit of seasoning. after that we spread them out evenly on a tray with baking paper and put them in the oven because they needed a while to cook. While we waited for the chips to cook we cut the fish into chunky bite sizes and dried them with a paper towel. Once we did that we mixed in lemon juice and panko breadcrumbs and put mayonaise on top of the fish. We dipped the top of the fish into the breadcrumbs and put those in the oven too. We made a cone from baking paper to put our food into to hold it. The recipe idea was from My Food Bag.

Home economics - Week 3 Jam Drops

In Home Economics my group and I made Jam drops. I worked in a group with Memory, Connor and Molly. We managed to get stuff done fast and certain people stuck to working on something which was really efficient so we got everything done as well as cleaning while we were cooking. There was some mucking around but I don't think it was too bad. While we were putting the jam in we were told we put too much in the cookies or that the cookies were an uneven size so it took more time trying to fix that.

this is the most accurate photo i could get of our cookies bc i couldnt get a photo of them
I think that they were pretty good especially for our first time making them and I think my team agrees bc they did taste pretty good. I think next time we should probably try be more accurate with measurements or be more prepared at the start of the lesson.
