Making Bolognese

Today at Tech we made Bolognese!

We always have to follow the recipe that our teacher gives us or else we aren't allowed to make any dishes. The ingredients we used were very basic. We used pre-made pasta, onions, garlic, sauce, meat balls and a little bit of cheese.

Once the pasta was cooked, I started cooking the meat balls. When the meat was cooked, I added the sauce.

Now that everything was cooked I was able to combine the pasta and meat. I then transferred some of the Bolognese to a plate. When the Bolognese was ready on the plate I sprinkled cheese over it.

I thought it tasted like spaghetti and sausage.

Chocolate muffins🍫🍫

On Wednesday we went to tech and made chocolate muffins. We all had to follow our daily routine. Then after the basics were done, we had to get all of our equipment out to make the chocolate muffins. Once we had made the mixture for the muffins we put little muffin cups in the muffin tray. Then we put the mixture into the tray, next we put the tray into the oven.

Then we had to set the timer for about 5-6 minutes. When the muffins were ready we took a photo of the muffins. I was told to blog about it. Once that was done we could eat them or take them  home.

Making takeaway boxes

On Wednesday we had to make a takeaway box. Firstly we had to think of a design so that we can start drawing. After that I had to write about what I'm going to sell in my restaurant,  so I said" I was going to sell sushi, fries, drink and a burger."

Also I had to write the pricing in my restaurant, so I had to draw types of foods on my piece of paper.  Once my drawing was finished I had to put a bar code on it, cut out the out line and transform it into a takeaway box. When it was finished everyone had to hand it over to Mr Pinda, he will take a photo of our artwork and keep it so that he can grade our work.

Graphics

On Wednesday we had to change class and we moved to graphics. The teacher said we had to draw our name. It had to be 6 cm wide and 6 cm long, we could draw it in different kinds of ways. When the drawings are finished we were told to draw our last name and colour the letters in but today we our real teacher wasn't here so we had a reliever called Mrs Stage. He told us how to do letters in different ways by the end of the session we didn't get to finished our work but maybe next week we might be able to finish it.

Making Nacho's

When I went cooking at Tamika Collage I made Nacho's. Before getting ready I had to get the equipment out of the cupboard and put it on the table before Mrs Tuipulotu gave us the ingredients to start cooking. When she gave us the 2 pieces of garlic cloves. When I put the garlic cloves inside the tea towel to mash it altogether and once the garlic was into little pieces I put them in the pan then I pored in oil. After pouring the oil in I fried it until it turned brown. Once it was  ready I let it to cool down. Then when Mrs Tuipulotu put all the ingredient in one bowl I take one and poured it in the pan with the garlic and some mince. I had to stir it around till it's cooked. I grabbed a plate of chips from the table then I pour the ingredients that I just made onto the plate of chips. Then once it was finished we had to show Mrs Tuipulotu and she would put more cheese on top of the Nacho''s and then we ate it.

Making banana muffins.

At tech we made banana muffins we had to get a bowl out so we can mash the banana in it. Once the
banana is mixed we pour in flour, milk, baking soda then mix it. Then put in one egg and some mounted butter after we mixed all the ingredients in we put sugar in. Then we kept on stirring make sure that it's not to watery if it is than just add more flour to it once the mixture is ready we get out the muffin tray out. We then put in the muffin cups in then when the muffin cups are in we put the mixture in then put the tray in the oven to be ready to cook once it is cooked. We then took it out and cool it off then it is done.

Housing Joint

Mr Grundy's Workshop.


Mr Grundy said we have to draw 10 ideas about what we are going to build, then show it. In our drawing where the joint is then he will mark it and give us a higher marks, if he liked our ideas.
But we had to draw our real one on a big piece of blank paper then, if we've finished our drawing and everything is done we get to move on to wood.
