The Chef

After having a Jamie Oliver moment; I decided it would be a good idea to cook dinner.


And so I got a few recipes with decently easy-to-find sounding names. Next off its to NTUC to buy. I mean after all they're supposed to have everything there right?

It was only the beginning of more nonsense to come when I couldn't find the leeks and decided to ask if spring onions were the same as leeks. Apparently NTUC didnt sell leeks, so I had to make do BAH.

Then they didnt sell lemons too, WTF.

After clocking in a 83 dollar bill for dinner, I decided I will apply to be DBS's CFO, my strongest merits being able to save costs.

Next it was on to cooking the dinner. While the instructions seem fairly simple to follow, they are actually submitted by a heartless person with lie after lie. Clearly stated on the instructions were to allow the soup to cook for 20 minutes.

I left it for 20 minutes, and when I opened I saw only potatoes and carrots, but no soup. It was then clear to me that the wok was absorbing water and my potatoes were chao-tared. Next to make the Hollandise sauce.

Instructions were to stir butter into the yolk syrup while heating it over a saucepan of water. More lies ensued when I realised my concoction was turning into scrambled eggs.

Dinner was served with half-cooked salmon on bottled thousand-island sauce. The only thing I couldn't destroy was the salad, which was.. well, impossible to overcook since no cooking was necessary.



Another excellent dinner by Chef HL.
