An Earthbag Round House For Less Than $5,000
Looking for a very stable design which does not only come cheap from the start but also makes you save money in the long run. Due to its shape and materials used, the earthbag house has less area than your normal home, so it’s cheaper to keep it supplied with energy. Don’t be scared if you never built circular structures before, because the example shown here used a technique called the compass arm which you can easily learn. Starting on the rubble trench foundation. Covering over our sediment fabric with pea gravel. Two rows of stem wall – 80 lb sack concrete. 2 strands of barbed wire go between every row. Firewood used to hold the barbed wire in place. Door frame up. A strip anchor to hold the door in place.

Chicken Jambalaya - Caribbean
Return to listing Jambalaya is one of the easiest and best rice dishes that owes its origins to the traditional Cajun cooking of America. Serves 2-3 This recipe is taken from The Delia Collection: Chicken. First of all, heat the frying pan over a high heat and brown the pieces of chorizo sausage, without adding any fat, then remove them from the pan to a plate and set aside. Then add a tablespoon of the oil and, when it's hot, brown the chicken and transfer that to the plate with the chorizo. Continue to fry for 4-5 minutes, till the celery and pepper are also softened and lightly tinged brown at the edges, adding a little more oil if you need to. Now stir in the rice to get a good coating of oil, then add the Tabasco to the hot chicken stock. Then, check that the rice is cooked and add a little more stock, if necessary.
