RECIPES Miguel served up a menu of delicious dragon delights including Dragon Wings, Dragon Tails and Dragonaide. DRAGON WINGS 1 Tablespoon oil 2 Cloves garlic 2 Onions 4 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 3 Tablespoons brown sugar The zest of 1 orange and 1 lime 12 chicken wings Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-‐low heat. Dice the onions and crush the garlic and add to the saucepan. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring them so they don’t burn. Turn heat up to high and add the vinegar and Worcestershire sauce to the glaze. To balance the flavour, add the brown sugar, as well as the orange and lime zest. Allow to simmer for 20 minutes. While the sauce is simmering, blanch the chicken wings for 1 minute. Doing this will remove the blood from the bone.
Put the blanched wings on an oven tray and coat with the BBQ sauce. Bake them in the oven for 25 minutes until the skin is crispy and the tips start to go black. DRAGON TAILS 200gs Tempura flour (Available in the Asian aisle of the supermarket) 1 Teaspoon smoked paprika (Optional-‐ Choose a hot paprika for a spicier batter) Pinch salt and pepper 500mls Soda Water 12 Medium-‐ small potatoes Vegetable oil for the deep fryer Fill the deep fryer and heat to 175 degrees. Mix the tempura flour, paprika, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Slowly add the soda water until you achieve a consistency that’s thicker than thin and whisk the batter until smooth. Put the batter aside. Use a wooden skewer to skewer the potato whole through the middle. Take a knife and starting from the top, cut a spiral down the length of the potato. Pull the potato down the skewer to separate the spiral, ensuring you have plenty of space between the potato for the batter. Dip the potato spiral in the batter to coat and allow excess to drip off. Drop the spiral, still on its skewer, into the deep fryer to cook at a minimum of 175 degrees for a crispy crunch. Remove from the fryer, and place on paper towel to drain excess oil. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.
DRAGONAIDE Juice and water to make soda stream, or bottled soda Frozen yoghurt or ice cream Sprinkles Miguel recommends trying these flavour combinations for dragonaide: -‐ Cranberry soda and strawberry frozen yoghurt -‐ Lime soda and vanilla frozen yoghurt -‐ Orange soda and mango frozen yoghurt Make the soda using the instructions for your soda stream, or alternatively use bottled soda. Fill a large milkshake style glass with the soda. Add a big scoop of ice cream or frozen yoghurt to each glass and top with sprinkles. Place a straw and a parfait spoon in each glass to serve.
CRAFT DRAGON HEADS You will need -‐ Toy lacrosse racquet -‐ Blue spray paint -‐ Scissors -‐ Egg carton -‐ Tape -‐ Blue fake leather material -‐ Bonding spray -‐ Stick on eyes -‐ Glue gun -‐ Fake fur material cut as eyebrows 1. Spray paint your racquet and egg cartons.
2. Cut individual cups from the egg carton and attach 2 upside down as eye sockets with tape. Cut the corner of the egg carton long ways for the nose ridge and attach down the centre with tape. 3. Cut the faux leather material to size of dragons head and attach as ‘skin’ using bonding spray, make sure you allow enough material to cover the eyes and nose. 4. Finish by attaching the stick on eyes and fur eyebrow over the eye sockets using your glue gun. VIKING SHIELDS You will need -‐ Thick corrugated cardboard -‐ Large round circle like a bin lid for tracing -‐ Stanley knife -‐ Silver metallic paint -‐ Brown paint -‐ Paintbrushes -‐ Plastic bowls -‐ Thumbtacks -‐ Old belt -‐ Silver tape -‐ Fabric scraps for decoration (fake leather, fur and animal print work well) 1. Trace 2 large circles onto your corrugated cardboard, cut out both shapes with a Stanley knife, and paint them brown. 2. Paint the plastic bowl with the metallic silver paint and attach to the middle of one of the circles, using the thumbtacks to secure around the edge. This is the front of your shield. If you are having trouble poking the thumbtack through, try piercing the holes with something thin and sharp first. 3. Take the second circle and cut 2 slots with a Stanley knife as thick as your belt. Thread the belt through and attach to the other side with tape to make a handle. This is the back of your shield.
4. Tape the 2 circles together using silver tape to look like metal. 5. Decorate the shield with fabric scraps. Having the kids decorate the shield themselves will allow them to personalise their shield.
