Christmas Dinner (A Recap) :D

We celebrated Christmas on the boxing day this year. :D On Christmas day, we actually went to have a snake banquet. (Yes, just like the one earlier this month :P 食過返尋味)

As it's quite impossible to roast a turkey in my mom's kitchen due to the lack of regular oven, so we settle on having a chicken instead. Somehow, I was reminded that we have George Foreman oven! :D

Yes it is a curious looking oven. :D Let's open it and you will see the goodies inside.


Sorry for the blurry picture. :D This oven opens up and it fits 1 medium sized chicken, 2 chopped up potatoes (my mom insisted to bake some), 1 large onion, 1 large carrot. :) We set the timer to 90 minutes. But it end up only needing about 75 to finish baking. :)

The advantage about the George Foreman oven is that the oil from the chicken would drip down to the little tray at the bottom (you see it like a roundish removable dish sitting underneath the oven), so you don't have to eat all that fat. :D


This is the finished chicken. :D It's nicely browned and meat was very juicy and tender. :D Once again, it's a success. :)

We also had some side dish:

Saute mushroom in creamy red wine and onion sauce

Mashed golden pumpkin! :) This was sooooo good! :)

It was a lovely dinner. :) It's nice to be able to celebrate the holidays with my folks this year. :)
