REFLECTION…
For this lab we had to make chili and corn bread from scratch, we had the choice between a meat or veggie chili and me and my partner decided to make the veggie chili. I’d never had veggie chili or corn bread before so i was pretty excited to make it to see what it would taste like.
The two methods that we used were sauteing for the vegetables and one pot dish which we used to make the actual chili in. For this we had to use a lot of different spices to help bring out the flavour of the dish, which is an area of cooking that i feel i need to work on.
The corn bread was simple to make as well, and at the end it turned out good but it was a tiny bit dry but that’s something that i can work on improving the next time i make it.
What went well for me was my communication with my partner, and my knife skills went pretty well too. I also think that i did a good job in following the recipe and i feel that the final products turned out great too.
Next time I need to work on my time management skills and I think I need to also work on being a little more confident in the kitchen.
I would definitely make this again because it was really good and it was fairly simple to make, i would make this for my family because they love chili and i’d love to show them how my cooking skills have improved.
For all the reasons i would give this lab a 5/5 stars.
