The relation of our mood with food is undeniable.  Every once in awhile, we have this unexplainable yearning for certain dishes to bring comfort to our soul.  That's what Mood Food, a new coffee table book by Chef JP Anglo in cooperation with Russell Hobbs is all about.

I was fortunate enough to be invited to Sarsa, the successful and popular restaurant owned by Chef JP Anglo himself, for his cooking demonstration on the recipes included in Mood Food.

Sweet Potato Chips with Spicy Chocolate Dip 
With simple ingredients like sweet potato.  You can transform it into a magical dish that will delight your crunchy cravings when you're alone watching tv or in a bonding moment with the company of friend sand family.  Chef JP Anglo covered them with olive oil.


and then added a little salt...

put them in the Russell Hobbs Purifry Health Fryer and set it first for 5 minutes to be sure.  You can later on adjust for longer time depending on the thickness of your chips and the quantity of your batch.

And, tada!!! 

Longganisa Panini
Using the Russell Hobbs Panini Maker, you can cook grill your longganisa.  According to Chef JP Anglo, you can cook a lot of things using this.  He even cooks his bacon and steak there and he loves how easy it is to clean.
 



Look at that!  The perfect snack to delight your taste buds.

French Toast with Dip
Using the Russell Hobbs Hand Blender, Chef JP Anglo easily prepared the 3 Cheese Dip.
 


Then, the grilled bread triangles using the same Russell Hobbs Panini Maker.

Combine the two together and you have this amazing dish of Grilled Bread Triangles with Roasted Pepper and 3 Cheese Dip.

Strawberry Smoothie
Place all the components into the Russell Hobbs Illumina Blender...

The nice suction base and silent mechanism of the blender allowed Chef JP Anglo to prepare our smoothies in an effortless manner.

Our Strawberry Smoothies was so good!
