Death by Brownies

  I love these brownies, yummy, gooey and so full of deliciously vile sin. Another evil recipe from my mother. I have actually made them myself with a little help from mom. I chopped the marshmallows and the cherries !

Warning : These brownies might result in delusions, temporary rapture and violent outbursts if there is only 1 piece left.

 

     INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 -2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 -2 cup chopped cherries
• 1 -2 cup marshmallows (chopped small) 

 

PROCEDURE (Is it Method ? I'm not sure. Pharmacy habit)

 Preheat oven to 180 Celsius

Grease square pan

In a bowl combine melted butter and cocoa and stir til cocoa dissolves.

Add sugar and mix

Add eggs one at a time and stir till mixed well.

Add vanilla, flour and salt

Fold in chocochips, cherries, marshmallows

Spread in pan and bake for approximately 25 minutes

This is what ours looked like :D

I Know Right !

Like Chicken ?

If you do then I have this sinfully good recipe for you.
NOTE- I did not in fact make this, I merely 'observed' my mother making it. So I cant really comment on its level of difficulty but it 'looked' pretty easy.


 Spicy Fried Chicken


Marinade
 1 1/4 cups buttermilk 
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tbsp Tabasco Sauce
2 tbsp mustard 
2 garlic cloves, minced  
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 onion, sliced thin
chicken pieces
salt

Coating
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp paprika
3 tbsp butter, melted

 

    Method

I totally forgot to take a picture pre- face feeding. I did however
manage to snag this half- eaten piece that was left.

1. Whisk buttermilk, oil, tabasco sauce, mustard, finely cut garlic, salt in a large bowl to blend well. Add onion, then chicken and turn to coat. 
2. Cover, chill for at least 3 hours.
3. Mix breadcrumbs, cheese, flour, paprika, salt.
4. Remove chicken from marinade. Add chicken to breadcrumb mixture and turn to coat completely.
5. Arrange chicken on baking sheets.
6. Let it stand  for 30 min.
7. Preheat oven to 425°F. Drizzle butter over chicken.
8. Place chicken in oven and bake until crisp, golden and cooked through about 50 minutes.
   
   Serve with Salad. Yum !

The Beginning

First Post, Yeay!  I have been aching to start a Blog since the longest time but courtesy my SLOTH; I never really got on with it. Finally I’ve decided to start, only because this is my means to escape my soon approaching exams and a blog seems like a perfectly good reason to not study! :D

Why Pride, Envy and Other Sins as a name? Well my name means Pride in Persian, Hindi, Urdu yada yada and some people claim I live up to it (I’m quite humble, really). For me every day is a struggle with one sin or another, Sloth as you can already guess, Lust (stories for another day), Gluttony- you’d know as soon as you saw my fat bottom! Well you get the gist.

It’s not always going to be about a sin, I will write about my views, likes, dislikes (Genelia D’Souza!) and pretty much anything that pops into my oddball head.

So back to Proteonomics for now. See you’ll later!

   Exploding High- Five !
