Apple Crumble

Think I need to change the name of this thing to the food blog, but oh well. I tried making apple crumble, with some success. It looked like a crumble and the apple filling was nice.
 
Only problem was that the cumble was way to buttery, may have to tone down the amount of butter next time.

Operation: Rice - Status Complete

Ok, so I tried again, and this time the rice was perfect. Well at least much better than before.
 
It still has a different texture/flavour to the rice that I am used to but I think that is because I normally have basmati rice at home. I will probably just pick some up when I next go shopping to see if that makes a difference.

Chile Con Carne

Hmmm, surprise, its been a while.
 
I have been making a new thing to eat recently, and I have decided that chile con carne is nice. I was looking for something new to make while wandering the isles of Asda with dafydd, and came apon the idea of making chile con carne. 
 
Turns out it was a good idea, quick as a flash I purchased some random ingredients that I guessed I would need to make it. Luckly it turns out that I had actually purchased at least most of the stuff, and it was really nice. Turns out I put a bit too many chilie flakes in so it was a bit hot, but I had some sour cream to tone it down a bit anyway. 
 
The only downside was as it turns out I had not cooked rice in a while. So that was a bit of an experience, I am a bit paranoid about cooking stuff so I kept checking it and stiring it. This resulted in my rice being a little, whats the word, clumpy. Anyway one quick google search later, it turns out you ain’t supposed to stir rice (at least I know now). 
 
Google Magic - Cooking The Perfect Rice
 
So anyway, I am about to try again, this time with some frozen left over chilie. Hopefully I will fair better with rice this time.
