The white man was onto a good thing when he designed the electric oven. I was privy only to some of his secrets, the use for making such fare as cakes and pizza. But recently I have dabbled, out of necessity, in ovencooking the simplest bodybuilding type foods. The results have been nothign short of amazing. I have no idea what i'm doing as usual, just freestlying it here and there. I used a recipe of recipe.com.au the other day, and I think someone trolled me, because the recipe called for using 240 degrees C to cook chicken breasts. Which was bullshit. Today i tried around 180C for 25 minutes and it worked so well. Chicken was juicy and moist, like i've never seen. I actually enjoyed it, and usually i despise anything to do with chicken breast cooked at home. I just never get it right. I have an unused George Foreman grill i got a few years ago and that never did a good job. Either i burned it, or it was raw, never got it right. But the oven changes everything. I'm supposed to be cutting but i'm having so much fun preparing and eating my meals lately, all thanks to the oven. I used some tomatos and chillis i got from the vege garden and threw in some onions (having no idea what i'm doing whatsoever), seasoned it all geneously, splash of olive oil, dashes of bbq sauce (dunno?) and that was it. Shit is fool proof, i can do this, even without any cooking ability whatsoever. No more hit and miss fucking around on the bbq or frying pan.
The best part is having solar power in a sun rich country so oven cooking is basically free. My mind is blown, things will never be teh same again. lolz.
I needed some carbs, and i've been making pasta recently, but today I just made a sandwich. The tomatos were so juicy and soft and with the onion as was the chicken breast, it was a phenomenal filling meal. I like that it limits my carbs to two slices of wholemeal bread too. Easy to track portions. Nice. Can't wait to try other stuff next time!
