Activity 2: Pancakes and Maple Syrup? [4 points]
Aotearoa New Zealand is home to many spectacular sights and natural wonders. One of these is the Punakaiki Rocks and Blowholes located on the West Coast of the South Island. The Punakaiki rocks attract tourists from all over the world who are keen to see these amazing rock formations. Many people think that they look like pancakes stacked on top of one another. Pancakes are one of my favourite foods! They are delicious and pretty easy to make.
For this activity you are asked to choose one of your favourite foods. On your blog, write the name of your favourite food and then tell us how to make it. You may need to ask a family member, friend or Google (!) for help, if you do not normally make this food for yourself.
My favourite food is :
Maccaroni and cheese.
How to make it:
1. Cook the macaroni to packet directions.
2. While the macaroni is cooking, melt the butter in a saucepan. Remove from the heat and mix in the flour until smooth. Return to the heat and cook stirring until the mixture is frothy. Mix in the mustard. Remove from the heat and mix in a little milk at a time, stirring after each addition until smooth. Return to the heat and cook until the sauce boils and thickens. Mix in the salt and cheese.
3. Drain pasta well, shaking the macaroni to remove as much water as possible Spoon into a serving dish and grill until lightly golden.
Kia Ora Fiapo,
ReplyDeleteI love Macaroni and cheese! The way you have written it out makes me hungry, too. I haven't had it for a little while so it might be on the menu for me real soon!
Is macaroni your favourite pasta? There are quite a lot of varieties. I wonder if you can still get the coloured macaroni - I remember there were orange and green kinds!
Do you do a lot of cooking yourself?
I'm really enjoying reading your blog, Fiapo. Keep up the good work!
