Extremely Spicy Chicken Wings.

Hello everybody.

Had no clue what to cook though we do have some leftovers but not much.

Went out for some shopping for tomorrow’s lunch at Mom’s,idea struck me when I saw the neat clean wings in chicken fridge, Rania’s wings recipe, she posted them few weeks ago so it’s a good day to try them specially that they’re my youngest favorite and I got some sausages and sauteed them with onions, garlic and olive oil.
Ah almost forgot, did some carrot soup on the side, good in this cold day.

Wings recipe is very easy, here’s its steps :

# marinate wings in lemon and spices.
# dust them all over with equal amounts of flour and semolina.
# keep in freezer for 30 minutes.
# deep fry afterwards.
# melt 3/4 cup of butter with one Tabasco bottle and /or BBQ sauce then dip wings when done in the sauce till all covered.

That’s it,fatty and rich as Zaid loves them but definitely delicious.

* 1 big spoon soysauce.
* 2 big spoons ketchup.
* 1 big spoon white or brown sugar.
* Tabasco as desired.
* 2 cloves garlic.
* some olive oil.
* 1 small onion.

* baking bag.

Mix all ingredients with chicken, put them in bag, add 1 spoon flour then close and bake for 1 hour.

I also made a new potato recipe called gnocchi with burnt butter and sage.(ميرميه ) This is an Italian dish, though recipe looked easy but to tell you the truth I won’t make it again, it took time and potatoes stayed sticky and not easy to handle. Though they tasted great but final result wasn’t like supposed to. Mashed potatoes would have been as good and easier to make.
But i’ll write the recipe nevertheless.

Ingredients:
* 3 large potatoes.
* 1 clove garlic.
* 2 tsp milk.
* 2 egg yolks.
* 1/3 cup parmesan cheese.
* 1 cup flour.
* 3 spoons butter.
* 12 fresh sage leaves.
Method:
* boil potatoes till tender, peel and mash.
* add garlic, milk, yolks, parmesan and enough flour to make firm dough.
* roll over floured surface and cut to oblong shapes.
* press with floured fork to flatten.
* keep in fridge for 1 hour.
* cook gnocchi in large pan of boiling water until they float.remove.
* heat butter until browned. Add sage then drizzle over potatoes.
* sprinkle with parmesan cheese before serving.

I also made Greek salad, turned out a light healthy lunch after all.
Enjoy♡♥♡♥
