You must be wondering what's this old fashion oven huh? Well, its actually my mom's or perhaps my granny's. My family members dont bake or have the interest in any oven-related stuff so there's not a need to have an oven at home.
Being somewhat curious on whether that old-fashion oven i have at home,stored somewhere in the house might be of use, i took it out and tested it by hittin the switch and wait too see if it warms up. To my surprise it warmed up and im more than glad to start making full use of it.
Previously i bought a dozen of drumsticks and i've had half of it turned into Lemony Chicken so i thought i might as well marinate the rest overnight and cook it today. Well i'm totally clueless on wht i should be cookin with that old-fashioned oven. Why? It has no temperature control knobs on it and i have no idea how high is the celcius scale when u hit the switch and leave it on.
So wht i did was i heated the oven for bout 10mins or so and then i lined the rack of the oven with the marinated chicken drumsticks.
Since i marinated the drumsticks im sure there will be sauce dripping from it so i placed a round flat metal place below for the drippings to be collected.
After about 15mins or so, i went to check on the drumsticks and it looks good to me, not exactly the roasted kinda look i was hoping for but it was good enough, at least the drumsticks are on its way to perfection. So i brushed a lil of the left over sauce from the marination of each of the drumsticks and closed the oven.
The next time when i went to check on it, i brushed more of the sauce on it and 10mins after that, i turned the drumsticks around and left it for another 10mins or so then went back to brushed the remainin sauce on it.
After 10 mins, i went back to check on it and this time it looks like its done. So i dish it up and brushed it with the remainin sauce on the flat metal plate i had below the rack.
As for the marination, i had quite a bit of seasoning in it. I've had sesame oil, maggie seasoning, sweet sauce soy, light soy sauce, oyster sauce and pepper in it. These combination might be a lil salty so be careful with the measurement used.
Before i marinated the drumsticks, i used a fork to make holes on the drumsticks so that when you marinate it , it will get a fuller flavour. Its best to keep it marinated over night.
