4 Mar 12 (Sun) - Coca-cola Chicken Wings

The Happycall Pan adventure continued today and the dish I cooked was coca-cola chicken wings, a recipe from a Munch Ministry member. Of course I also did other creative stuff such as cooking the rice using the water from boiling the purple carrot and baking my usual vanilla cupcake recipe using the Happycall Pan.

The results? The coca-cola chicken wings were yummy especially when drizzled with some lemon juice. The rice was dyed a deep purple color but was a bit too soft coz I overestimated the amount of water used. As for the cakes, they were not very successful though the top portions were still edible.

I think there are a few factors that contributed to the failure:

>  I didn't mix the ingredients using an electic mixer hence maybe not enough air incorporated

>  I didn't use any moulds during the baking hence some of the mixture flowed out of the paper cases

>  I overestimated the time for baking hence the burnt bottom

From this...

... to this.
