The difference between boys and girls... Boys in their growing stage will start digging for food in the fridge while girls will never touch the food in the fridge as they are watching their waistline. :lol: :lol:

as for my gal, every moment when she is at home,
would dig for food high and low, be it in the kitchen cabinet or fridge....
asking me to bake more as to fatten her up....

her BMI already LOW and yet her ballet teacher tells her to \"lose weight\".....
i was :!: when i heard that. :lol:

Ballet teachers are like that. Slim not enough. Must be thin. :shock:[/quote]ok...let me put up this first :offtopic:

But my gal is already underweight :lol:
pity her daughter then, everyday instead of feeding her,
prob she would nag at her to \"lose weight\" :roll:

Made two today, each pizza is 9\" x 9\". First pizza left only 3 slices for breakfast tomorrow, second pizza, cut and stored in freezer for the boys' hunger pangs!

that's great. better then those frozen pizza from the supermarts. You make the dough & sauce yourself as well? Does it take long to make the dough? I used to buy those frozen pizza dough from coldstorage and the kids get to put their own toppings.

Yes, I made the dough using my breadmachine. Does not take very long. My machine does the dough in 1&1/2 hours. No special sauce, used ketchap.

How did u do that?

The recipe and video are here:
http://www.cucabrazuca.com/brazilian-cooking-video-recipes/banana-meringue-dessert/

However, I will reduce the amount of sugar the next time I make it. 2.5 cups is simply too much caramel! :lol: I'd probably half the amount. Also, I reduced the amount of sugar in the meringue to about 5 tablespoons and added about a teaspoonful of lemon juice for flavour.

Overall, the dessert was good, if a bit sweet.

:drool: wow it looks absolute yummy... wat did u add in the dough?

Huh? :? Do you mean what sort of pizza it was? It was a Hawaiian Pizza with pineapple, ham and canned mushrooms.

How about trying this?


Ingredients:
(make two 12" pizza dough)

250g bread flour
1 teaspoon fast-acting dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
150ml lukewarm water
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Method:
oGrease two 30cm (12in) round pizza trays.
oSift flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Mix in the yeast. Make a well in the centre and add the water and olive oil. Using your hands, gradually work the ingredients together to form a soft dough. If the dough is too dry add a few drops of water.
oTurn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for 10 mins until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Shape dough into a round ball and place in a lightly oiled mixing bowl. Cover with cling wrap and leave to rise for 1 hr or until double in size.
oTurn out the risen dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knock it down to release the air. Give it a few gently kneading. Divide dough into 2 portions. Shape into two balls, cover loosely with cling wrap and let it rest for about 10mins.
oRoll or press out each portion to a round, about 12" in size. Place dough on prepared tray.
oSpread pizza sauce over the dough to within 1 cm (0.5 inch) of the edge. Arrange a layer of grated cheese, followed by preferred toppings. Sprinkle the top all over with grated cheese.
oBake in a preheat oven at 200 degC for 15~20mins or until the crust has turned golden and the cheese has melted. Serve warm.
