Easy Fried Rice with Grilled hoi Sin Chicken & Apple Pike

Early this morning, the hubby and I went to KMart and we bought my first baking trays set and I was so excited! Yeah, sure it wasn't the most expensive or the best quality brand (Homemaker) but it is cheap and it is usable, so I don't really care.

So for dinner tonight, I made a simple fried rice with grilled chicken with hoi sin sauce and for dessert, I made an Apple Pike. (A cross between a pie and a cake) It was my first pie I've baked by myself (Usually had my mum to guide me) and I must say, I was rather amazed yet disappointed by the result.

The recipe said to bake it for about half an hour in a 220 preheated oven but mine came out slightly burnt and I didn't realize it as I was cooking dinner at the same time.
