Heat 2 inches of oil in a wok or deep frying pan. Toss the chicken in the cornstarch mixture and deep-fry in batches for 5 minutes or until crisp and golden. Drain on paper towels.
Empty the oil from the wok to leave a thin coating in the pan. Stir-fry the onion and peppers over a high heat for 3 minutes.
Drain the pineapple cubes (reserving the juice), add to the pan, and cook for a minute ot two.
Mix together the cornstarch and a little of the pineapple juice to form a paste, then stir in the remaining juice, the ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, and 1/2 cup water. Pour this into the pan and bring to a boil, stirring until the mixture thickens.

Chicken and Sausage Jambayala
Serves 6

4 lbs chicken (can use less)
as needed vegetable or olive oil
1 or 2 andouille links, sliced
3/4 cup yellow onion, diced
3/4 cup green bell pepper, diced

3/4 cup celery
1/2 cup green onion tops, chopped
1 1/2 tbs garlic, chopped
1 tbs parsley, chopped (optional)
1 lb shrimp (optional)
1 1/2 tbs salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, Cayenne pepper sauce can be used in final step instead)
3 each bay leaves
3 each cloves (or 1 tsp. ground cloves)
1/2 tsp ground thyme (optional)
1/2 tsp dried basil (optional)
3 dashes tobasco sauce (optional)
1 1/8 lbs white rice, raw
6 cups chicken broth

water as needed

Louisiana red pepper sauce (Joe's red Hot) to taste.

Procedure:

1) In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces thoroughly. As the pieces brown, remove them and reserve for later.

2) Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, green onions, and garlic and cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring frequently, or until the vegetables are thoroughly browned.

4) Add the sausage, rice, and seasonings and continue to cook, stirring frequently for 5 additional minutes, then add the reserved chicken, tobasco sauce, and chicken broth. Mix gently.

5) Bring to a boil, cover, and turn the heat down very low. Cook, covered, for approximately 45 minutes. From time to time, uncover and gently stir to prevent the rice from drying out, add water as needed. Be careful not to over-water, as the jambalaya will come out as a paste, and do not allow to dry out, as it will burn.

6) Adjust the seasonings to taste and continue to cook until the rice and chicken are done. Add the shrimp to cook for last 5 minutes (10 if the shrimp is raw).

7) Remove the chicken from the bone. This is an optional step. I personally prefer to remove the chicken from the bone. The choice is yours...on or off the bone, it doesn't really matter. Fluff with a fork before serving. Chicken may also be removed from the bone after browning, though it comes off easier if it has cooked in the rice mix.

*Tip: One of the secrets of a really good Jambalaya is the rendering of the fat from the chicken and sausage. It helps to coat the rice so that it keeps its texture and also builds flavor into the dish, so be sure to let the chicken, and sausage brown really well.

Bon Appetite

(My version)Better than sex cake

1 Chocolate Cake Baked( I used Yellow,and prepared from a box)
1/2-3/4 Cup Fudge Topping
1/2-3/4 cup caramel topping(You can use butterscotch,thats what the recipe calls for but the caramel is best in my opinion)and its the kind you get for like ice cream same for the fudge topping.
1/2-3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
butterfinger candy bars
1/2-1 tub of cool whip
a hand full of flaked coconut

After the cake has cooked from baking it poke holes in the top of it with a fork or the handle of a wooden spoon(i like to use a bigger fork). pour the fudge on top of the cake (I like to heat mine before i do it).Let that soak in a bit,then pour the caramel sauce(i like to heat this also) let that soak in a bit as well.Then pour the condensed milk over the top of the cake letting that soak in as well.crush half of the candy bars( i used three,so i used 1 1/2 for this part),and sprinkled them over the cake.Then sprinkle the coconut over that.Next spread the coolwhip over top and finished it off by sprinkling the remaining candy bars.

I altered the cake,the candy bars,and the caramel sauce,because it called for butterscotch.It turned out absolutely delicious.Good luck sweetie,have a good night hope you enjoy!!

P.S. Its extremely RICH! Recipe can call for 1/2 cup instead of 3/4 cup depending on the size of your orginal cake.I used a round cake (about the size of a 9 in pie pan) so i only used 1/2 cup..

I love making carob coconut bars.

Just melt carob chips in a double broiler and then spread out onto wax paper. Sprinkle some dried coconut and sliced almonds and you have a delicious treat!
