Anna's Chocolate Chip Cookies
About this Cook
My family's from the Fiji Islands. I've grown up with a taste for all types of foods. I've been cooking for over 20 years (my mother believes the best skill for a woman is cooking; after all, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach!) Thankfully, I love cooking, and I especially love to bake.
My favorite things to cook
I will bake or cook pretty much anything. Whatever catches my fancy that day.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every dish I make, I always have at least 6-7 garlic cloves. And I always top each dish with cilantro.
My cooking triumphs
I made my very first sponge cake when I was 11 years old. It came out perfect. Every sponge cake I've made since has always fallen. But at least I made a good impression at an early age!
My cooking tragedies
Too many to list. I will need way more than 1000 words, believe you me!

Chicken Papadoris
I've just finished enjoying this dish, and it's going into my recipe box. I made a few alterations. I added 2 heaping tsp of curry powder, doubled the cumin & cayenne, and added freshly chopped cilantro at the end - I also omitted the cornstarch/water mixture; it thickens up nicely on its own.

Tangy Slow Cooker Pork Roast
This was fantastic! I've only made pork roast once before and it was terrible. I decided to try once more and I was not disappointed this time around. I stuffed the roast with garlic and rubbed it with salt & pepper, then browned it all over before putting it in the slow cooker. Even my picky two-year-old loved it! This one's going in my recipe box.

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies
These were quite nice after a few changes. After reading several reviews,I used butter flavored shortening, added an extra 1/2 cup peanut butter, as well as an extra 1/4 flour and an extra 1/2 cup oats. Also, I reduced the salt to 1/2 tsp. A nice change to peanut butter cookies. Next time, I will try choco-chips, nuts, etc. This is a great recipe to experiment with!
