BUT OH SO GOOD

Back when the flu struck around the first of the year I had to miss class of "Fry Day" also known as Golden Brown Delicious day.

VERY DISAPPOINTING!

The lab classes for the culinary program are no joke. I had lecture on Saturday from 12:30-1:50 and then we were in the kitchen working through the week's recipes with instructor demos from around 2-7pm. Missing one class meant you missed A LOT!

I was horribly sick and didn't want to give anyone else the flu so I emailed my professor and he gave me the go ahead to try the recipes at home.

Charlie was wonderful enough to get the ingredients I needed from the store and brave enough to eat the food.

I haven't been particularly inclined to eat fried food since working through all of these deep or shallow fry recipes. And, I only did about half of what they did in class.

 Deep fried Curry Dusted Okra

Trust me: YUM!

Awesome Chipotle Hush Puppies!

Newcastle Beer Battered Cod

Excellent batter but the fish was awful.

Not from cooking but poor quality from the store :(

Beignets

 Chef said the book had a bad recipe.

Mine were certainly too big and dry but did come out looking the way they were supposed to.

But this is not my idea of a doughnut.
