I have been told that I cannot cook. Sometimes I have to agree, I burnt my oven pizza tonight. So I wanted to prove that I can to myself and those that doubt my hidden chef talents.

So here it is; n00b makes buns

The Recipe:

Ingredients

  • 10oz Self raising flour
  • 4oz margarine
  • 4oz sugar
  • 4oz sultanas
  • 2 eggs
  • milk

Method:

1) Rub flour and margarine together to form 'bread' crumbs 2) Mix in sugar and sultanas 3) Beat eggs in jug and add a little milk and stir into mix. 4) Add more milk as needed to make a moist mix 5) Grease bun tin 6) Put mix in tin 7) Put in oven and cook until golden brown 8) Eat

My attempt:

Well firstly I had absoultely no equipment. Luckily I live near a super market and a bargain store.

So after running around a few shops I had acquired the necessary items for the creation of this culinary delight.


My El-Cheapo £3.99 scales

I weigh the flour. Start to pour it into the bowl, remember I have to sift and sift the rest.

I rub the margarine.

The margarine sticks to my hands and not the flour.

I continue to rub. A short while later the flour looks a different colour and i think i have made "breadcrumbs"

So I weigh the sultanas whilst raiding the packet for more and weight the sugar.

I throw that in the mix.

Now I beat the eggs into a frothy white liquid.

Then I pour that in.
