Tech - Hawaiian Pizza

This week Mrs Tuipolotu instructed us to construct our own Hawaiian pizza with our partner. To start, the first person received our pizza bread and spread the tomato paste on top of the bread. While they were doing that the second person which was me then diced the ham, onion, and chicken. When everything was done we put all the toppings on our pizza with a bit of pineapple. After that we topped our pizza with cheese then we put it in an oven which was preheated to 180 degrees for 15 minutes. I really enjoyed and in my perspectives this is my favorite cooking session out of all. I also enjoyed food tech today because I drunk the pineapple juice. 

Tech Reflection - Cooking

It is the last week of the term meaning we will not learn anything for the nest two week (holidays). Today we cooked Meat Pies with Mrs Tuipolotu. It was interesting to see how people were cooping with challenges of cooking the meat pies because there were some onions that were over cooked and some of the ham was not cooked fully so they had to cook the ham for another 5-10 minutes. At the end everyone was happy of what they cooked and enjoyed their Meat Pie. We are looking forward to see what were going to cook for next terms sessions.

Here is the Recipe:

Step 1 - Dice the onion, ham, and mince

Step 2 - Fry the onion first, and then ham, and mince

Step 3 - Add the sauce, soya, sauce, and cornflour, mix herbs

Step 4 - Place the pastry on the round baking tin foil

Step 5 - Pour all your meat in and bake 180 degrees for 20 minutes.

Food Tech Reflection

Today was our 5th session of food tech with Mrs Tuipolotu (cooking teacher). We were really excited because this was our second time cooking it and we know how delicious the muffins are. We followed the 3 instructions that were compulsory which is follow the instructions, correctly measure the ingredients and being able to read the ingredients properly. I worked with Jeremiah to cook 12 chocolate chip muffins and we enjoyed cooking together. The most important thing we learnt today is to not under mix or over mix our ingredients because if you over mix the muffins the air in the mixture will decrease and if you under mix the mixture the muffins will look really heavy and dents like a rock. If, next time I was to cook chocolate chips muffin I would change something which is to mix more because in my mixture it showed some flowers which meant I didn't mix my ingredient properly. Thank you to Mrs Tuipolotu for teaching us how to cook Chocolate Chip Muffins.
