Girl’s Night! I agreed to take my sister out clubbing for the first time and I made sure to make pre-drinks a bit special.

Tasting Plate

I made a tasting plate of chorizo sausages, cheese cubes, turkish bread and chilli, basil infused olive oil.

Bacon Cheezels

I found my new favourite chips. I already love Cheezels, but now even more since they brought out the bacon flavour. You still get the crunchy, corny, cheesiness of regular Cheezels, but now in the shape of a mini bacon strip and tastes like bacon too!

Pink Glasses with Bacon Cheezels

I found cool pink glasses and to the right, a bowl of the bacon Cheezels.

Chocolate Fountain with a dipped Cherry

These chocolate fountain machines are great fun. A dipped cherry can be seen oozing with chocolate, and you can also see the top of the churros I made.

Accompaniments for the Chocolate Fountain

I made Churros for the first time. Super easy, cheap and tasty. Recipe here. Sorry for the lack of photography… I guess I’ll just have to do it again ; )

Also on the plate are fresh strawberries, cherries, mangos, pineapples, marshmellows and jelly filled red lollies.

Toblerone Cocktail

No girl’s night would be complete without cocktails… our flavour of choice for the night was Toblerone.

After drizzling the chocolate sauce in swirls in to the cocktail glasses (from the chocolate fountain I might add), we blended one tablespoon of Kahlua, Frangelico, Baileys, White Creme de Cacao and four tablespoons of cream with ice. Then topped it off with crushed Toblerone and a chocolate waffle stick.

Thanks to MzTiff for helping with this one.

Lychee Cocktail

No idea what went into these, it had lychee, it was sweet. That is all.

About a month ago it was my sister’s birthday. Along with being an awesome big sister, I also give a “free home cooked meal” card where she can request anything and her wish in my command!

And that wish was a 6 hour slow cooked roast pork, with veggies and mash balls…. and that was it! She loves roasts and loves, loves, loves potatoes.

My 6 Hour Slow Cooked Roast Pork

The recipe is by Jamie Oliver. I’ve stuck with this recipe for years now and I love it so much because of the perfect crackling and natural flavour of the pork.

To top it off, I found a unique way to prepare potatoes for her special day…. enter mash balls! Balls of deep fried mash potato.

For sides, I also did corn on the cob, sweet potatoes, garlic bread and home-made gravy.

Another View mmm Crackling

A long strip of crackling…

My Plate

The meat just falls apart and you don’t need a knife to serve it… just two forks.

Regent Cakes Pandan Fruit Cake $32

For dessert, we bought one of our favourites from Regent Cakes in Northbridge. Be sure to order a few days in advance and they’ll do all sorts of request such as flavours, shapes and levels.

One year I requested to have mango slices inside the cake and it was magical.

Innards

Cutting through the cake you can see the layers of pandan flavoured soft sponge in between layers of soft fruit and lashes of cream.

Pandan is a green leaf used in asian cooking. It produces a light yet fragrant smell, taste and colour.
