Honey Soy Chicken Wings

Another easy dish when I do not feel like making anything fancy. It is quick and simple.

Marinade chicken wings with Honey and Soy Sauce and a dash of pepper. I left this to marinade in the fridge for more than 5 hours. I think it will be much better if left overnight.

Came back from work, pre heat the Air Fryer, pop half of the chicken in and fry for 15-20 minutes. I did the first batch for 20 minutes and it turned rather black. Second batch was placed in the fryer for only 17 minutes and it was cooked perfectly . Also sprinkle some olive oil before frying. That's all the oil used in this chicken wings.

I used to bake this in the over at 180C for around 35-30 mins. It works as well but i think the Air Fryer makes it taste more delicious.

Served with white rice.

Celeriac Chips

I tried this celeriac chips from a recipe online. It is basically the same steps as making potato chips. even look the same but it is much healthier. I need to blanch the celeriac for a few minutes then coat with oil and stuck it in the air fryer for a good 20 minutes. It is rather soft and not as crunchy as potatoes. Kids still ate it and say it was fine but potatoes are better. I think it is super yummy. I just love the texture and the taste of celeriac.

Spinach Meatballs with Tomato Sauce

Spinach and Carrot Pork balls with tomato sauce

This is just a simply whack it in dinner. No recipe to follow. I just tried to mince as much vegies into the smallest possible size in the Thermomix. Mixed it with the minced pork. Added seasoning and my vegie stock. Yes my kids are deprived of vegetables. It is just so hard to get any form of vegetables in their diet. if they see it, they won't consume it.



i patiently rolled all the balls and place them on a baking tray before getting it ready to fry in batches. Another wonder invention is the Phillips Air Fryer. With only a drop of oil, i manage to fry this whole tray of meat balls

The first batch was obviously in for too long. i cut it down to 15 mins after that instead of 20 and they were all fine after that.






 While the meatballs were frying, i worked on the sauce. This is just tomato can soup and adding bits of tomato paste, bits of sweet mustard pickles (oh my!! this thing is soooo good), bits of sugar, vinegar. Just simmer and keep tasting to get the desired taste. My sauce was abit too tart due to the amount of tomato paste used but still OK once the meatballs goes in.

Also juggling cooking the macaronis in between frying the meatballs. It would have been nicer if spaghetti were used instead of the elbows.
