Hello I am here to show my GW iron chef entry.
Although it didn't turn out exactly as planned i'm pretty satisfied at how it tasted, and content on choosing some pretty different recipes to cook.  They look a bit shit but that's how it turns out!  Spent about £7 which is pretty good as I had a lot of ingredients spare to use later!

Sorry forgot to take a picture of the ingredients, but they were...1kg of carrots, ginger, onion, flat leaf parsley, lemon, honey, virgin oil, mascarpone, double cream, eggs, butter, flour, icing sugar, water and seasoning.  Had some at home which I didn't need to buy.

Okay so what i made was a carrot and honey soup with a parsley pesto, carrot soufflé and a carrot cheese cake/tart.

To start with, I made the soup.  I put a finely chopped onion into a pan with a bit of oil with a teaspoon of finely grated ginger and left it to soften for about 10 minutes.  Added the carrots, a tiny drizzle of honey, and a squeeze of lemon, added the water and left to boil.
Basically after 40 minutes or so all I had to do was liquidize, season it and it was pretty much done!  On the top was a really simple parsley pesto (thick parsley oil) and a dash of cream.  It cut the sweetness of the carrots pretty well.


Next I started the soufflé, which to be honest I've never tried making one before so it was a gamble of how it went! I cooked carrots in a pan until tender, once out mashed and seasoned them to a pretty fine texture. Afterwards, separated 3 eggs and added the yolks, melted butter, and some flour into the mixture.  The egg whites were whisked to make it about 3 times its original volume, and the carrot mixture was added and folded into the whites to keep the air in.(did a pretty shit job at this as can be seen in the finished thing.) Put in the oven for about 40 mins and hoped for the best!

As can be seen it turned out looking a bit balls.  It was about a cm taller but it kind of collapsed when it came out the oven, but it tasted pretty great and was really light.

Finally started on the cheesecake. I had absolutely no idea how it was going to turn out, and I haven't really heard of a carrot cheesecake before so I wanted to see how it was.
So mixed the mascarpone and cream together with some julliened carrots which were cooked in a sugar syrup. Added some honey and a bit of icing sugar to add a bit more sweetness, and 2 egg yolks to make it even more rich.   The base was simply some biscuits crushed mixed with some butter to make a firm base to pour the mixture onto.  Placed the cheesecake in the oven and cooked it until it was somewhat firm to touch. Put some carrot on top to see how it tasted and looked pretty shit!, but I took a picture of it anyway.

Aha turned out looking more like a tart than a cheesecake though and the carrots looked hellish on it.
It had an interesting taste.  It was sweet but not too sweet, and not too rich which is weird for the amount of cream and cheese in it.

So all in all it was pretty fun!  It tasted pretty good which is the main factor as I was the one eating it.  Might of looked better but that's always something I can work on for the next cook off!

Oh wow that looks pretty swell; too bad for me mines looking a tad messy compared to this.  But great work on this, it definately looks delicious and the presentation on that salad is fantastic!

Actually i think most of his stuff wouldn't  be funny if it was read by anyone else.  I'm not saying his accent is hilarious or anything but the way he tells things and the fast pace he tells it that is quite amusing. Not GROUNDBREAKING or anything but its pretty swell.

yeah if they have megaman in brawl, he better not be like this or this.
I'm hoping they base it off of the box art for the american Megaman for the nes.

Now that'd be awesome.

Sonic looks pretty swell. He doesn't look out of place which is surprising, even though snake looks out of place in my opinion. He looks the most badass though.
