Quaker Crispy Minis

A slightly healthier version of snacks, only 90 calories for one serving.  As it is the wife already thinks i eat too much munchies, so she suggested this for me instead.  BBQ flavored, pretty good but the bites are so small and they are so airy for me.  But nevertheless, at $2.49 a pack – it’s not bad if you want to stay healthier.

Sweet Potatoes Tempura

sweetpotatoes

What do you do when you see this huge crate of sweet potatoes..??  In our family, we make sweet potatoes tempura !!  the kid loves it, the wife thinks it is healthy and me  – it’s easy enough to peel them off  and cut them up and dump them into the deep fryer or better yet put them in the oven and baked them.   We watch tv and munched them down.  The kid thinks I’m  a hero and the wife thinks I am a good father.

LARGE  Sweet Potatoes
Vegetable Oil
Tempura Batter for Vegetables, Meat & Fish

Preheat the deep fat fryer to 365 degrees.
Wash the sweet potatoes.
Parboil for about 10 minutes.
Pare the sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2? wide x 1/2? thick strips.
Dip the sweet potato strips into the tempura batter.
Place in skimmer and gently lower into the deep fat fryer.
Remove the sweet potato strips from the hot fat with the skimmer when they
float to the surface and have turned golden brown.
Serve hot.

Found this in the Malaysia supermarket and brought some home.  The wife said she grew up eating them and they smell fishy like cuttlefish.  Very chewy and a great snack with beer.

St. Patrick’s Day

Well, good ole St Pat’s day is just round the corner, so we bought some of this St Pat’s cookies to share with the kid’s school friends. Sorry, no Irish friends to buy them for – so had to make an excuse to buy junk food again. The wife don’t like to see us eat junk food but if it was for the kids, no problemo!
