Kiri's Fried Chicken

Since I started the blog today, I couldn't resist a further play on the Anagram KFC so I decided to make Kiri's Fried Chicken.
It's funny because I can't remember half of the herbs and spices I added and I substituted the deep fryer for a shallow frying pan and the fact the chicken drumsticks I bought were 'super-sized' rather than human sized (I'm sure the bag was labelled wrong because they definately look like they could've come from a turkey) the critics (Dada, Nate, Juni and Nika) all prefer it to Southern Fried Chicken and Chicken Magic (Chicken places in Rarotonga) so I guess that's a big enough compliment if any.



I wouldn't say personally that it compares to my favourite take out but it was definately cheaper than buying it and I just had to give it a go.
I also made my own take on potato and gravy and after discovering the state of my cabbage decided not to make a coleslaw so stuck to a throw it together salad instead which consisted of tomatoes, apples, capsicum and mayonaise.
I think the best news is there's no left overs and no stomach complaints which says it all.

The people who make me - me

My photo
My 4 guinea pigs... Daniel My husband. He is not the best critic because he will eat everything I serve him on a plate and say it tastes 'nice'. Nate My 17 year old son who will eat anything put in front of him. Juni My 8 year old son who is fast becoming like his big brother in regards to the amount he eats. Nika My 6 year old princess. She eats more like a little sparrow and rarely over indulges in food. She is my favourite critic as she will tell me what tastes good and what tastes great. My family Pop My dad. Although he has minimal involvement in my life, I believe he has played a major roll in the person I have become. Mum My ear, shoulder and confidant. A woman worth her weight in gold. She is always there to have a good chin wag with and has inspired a few of my creations. Then there's me - Kiri. I have always enjoyed baking. I learnt early on that the quickest way to my heart was through food which is probably why I LOVE to cook for people.
