As part of our little banquet the other evening we created some incredibly tasty Chicken Stock as a result of boiling the Chicken Feet. This made a great foundation for a Raman.
Raman Ingredients:-
1 Egg, boiled for 7 minutes to get a soft yoke
50g of thick Rice Noodles
Broth from the boiled Chicken Feet. Chicken stock will work fine
1 Spring Onion, chopped
A handful of Coriander, chopped
A Handful of Bean Sprouts
1 Red Chilli, sliced
½ a Pak Choi, sliced
Oil to fry
Egg Marinade Ingredients:-
2 Tbsp of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
2 Tbsp of Shaoxing Wine
4 Tbsp of Water
Method:-
(1) Marinade the boiled Egg in the Soy Sauce, Shaoxing Wine and Water in the fridge for at least an hour.
(2) In a large pan heat the Broth / Stock.
(3) Fry the Pak Choi.
(4) Boil the noodles until tender.
(5) Slice the boiled Egg in half.
(6) To your serving bowl add the Noodles and Broth.
(7) Stir in the Pak Choi and Bean Sprouts.
(8) Add the Spring Onion, Coriander and Chilli.
(9) Garnish with the boiled Egg.
This really was the star of the show. Although it was unplanned when we set out on this particular culinary adventure…..
These were intended to be more of a Potato Rosti but our grater wasn't up to the job so I improvised! They were actually more like an Onion Bhaji. Certainly not a disaster, but I'm good to admit an error once in a while!
They are there on the plates, just dwarfed by Sue's monster pasties.......
We served them with Sue's giant home made Cornish Pasties – Recipe here

Cherry Tomatoes and red Onions dressed with a little oil and Parsley
Ingredients:-
3 large Potatoes, parboiled and sliced very thinly
2 Onions, sliced finely
3 tbls plain flour (Gluten free works fine)
2 tsp Chilli flakes
2 tsp Garlic salt
2 tsp Onion salt
2 Eggs
Oil for frying
Method:-
(1) Once the sliced Potatoes have cooled mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
(2) Form into fritters.
(3) Fry in a little oil turning once, until golden brown on both sides.
There is a 'Continental' shop not far from us. Next time we have a little spare cash we'll probably get a bag on Gram flour and try a proper Onion Bhaji recipe.
