Chocolate Cake - Food Tech


Today in food tech, my classmates and I made a chocolate cake.
The ingredients we needed were self-raising flour, sugar, cocoa,
milk, oil, 1 egg and vanilla essence. The first step was to add 2 cups
of self-raising flour, ½ a cup of sugar and 2 TSP of cocoa into a bowl.
We then added the wet ingredients which were ½ a cup of milk, ½ a
cup of oil, 1 egg and 1 tsp of vanilla essence. We then mixed it altogether
using a rubber scraper. Once it was mixed, we rubbed butter all over the
baking tin with our fingers and poured the mixture into the tray. We then
placed the tin inside the oven to bake at 180 oC for 30 minutes. As you
can see at the top, this is how our cake turned out with a bit of icing sugar.

Plain Bread - Food Tech


Today in Cooking class my classmates and I made plain
bread. The ingredients we used were plain flour, SR flour,
oil, sugar, salt, yeast and cooking spray. First we added 2
cups of flour into a bowl and added two teaspoons of sugar
and ½ a cup of oil. We also added a little salt to the bread
as well. We then got a bowl of warm water and added yeast.
Slowly, we mixed the yeast into the bowl of flour until it was
in good shape to roll out. Then, we got a chopping board and
threw on some SR flour and rolled it out. We did it until the
dough was good enough to go into the oven then cut it in half.
We sprayed cooking spray on the tray, placed the dough and
put it in the oven. But before we did that, we left the oven on to
180o degrees for 20 minutes then turned it off and placed the
bread in. We left the dough inside the oven for a couple of minutes
then turned the oven back on to 1800 degrees. As you can see at
the top, this is the end result of how our bread turned out.

nachos. The ingredients we used were: onion,
mince, baked beans, sliced tomatoes, spices,
cheese and nachos. First, we diced onion and fry
it in a pan until it was soft. We then added the

done and placed it on a plate with nachos underneath.
Then to finish it off, we added cheese on top and it
was ready to eat. As you can see on top, there is a
