Failed Recipe and Cooking Rush Lunch - My Actifit Report Card: October 11 2023

Hello Actifitters!

I made some churros today because my kids wanted to have some. I never tried cooking one, but I always order churros whenever I get a chance. The night before, I was already watching recipes and looking for the easiest one to follow, so I saved and marked the one I thought was the best. And here comes the morning! After following the measurements and the procedure, the churros dough I made was a bit runny compared to the recipe shown in the one I copied; the dough should be thick and sticky when transferring to the piping bag.

I tried fixing it by adding more flour, but it's still not the same in the recipe I copied. My son was disappointed when he saw the state of the dough when I asked for help during the transfer to the piping bag. He woke up so early because he was excited to see the process of cooking the churros. He also watched with me the recipes last night, so he knew what to expect. I still tried cooking it, expecting it to be a disaster. It wouldn't mold in the pipping bag because it was so soft. The taste is like churros but the texture is bad, it suppose to have a crunch on the outside, the one we made is so soggy.

I don't know exactly what went wrong because I followed exactly what's in the recipe. Next time we will try different recipe from a reliable source. lol

We proceeded to the supermarket after dropping off my son at school, and we were halfway through our shopping when a good friend of mine sent me a DM saying that they were in the area and they would drop by the house for lunch! My, oh my, I don't have a plan to cook anything for lunch because we were planning to dine in after buying groceries. But change of plan: we finished shopping for groceries quickly and ran to the dry market on the way home. It was almost noontime! Fish is the fastest to cook, so I bought boneless milkfish, some eggplants, and other veggies to add to the meal.

I finished cooking in an hour and all the food was ready, only to receive a message that they got delayed because of work.The supposed lunch became an early dinner because they arrived at our house at 4 p.m.If only I knew they would be coming that late for lunch, I could prepare better. Everything I prepared was in a rush. lol
