A sort of Carbonara thing, eat well on universal credit

We’re avoiding Lactose at the moment as it’s causing Sue issues. So this recipe is far from traditional. But it was really tasty.

Ingredients:-

475g of Inner Breast fillets, cut in half
1 Small Onion,diced
3 Cloves of Garlic, minced
200ml of Chicken Stock
3 Tbsp of Yogurt
5 Mushrooms, sliced
A handfull of Spinach Leaves
A dish of White Wine
Salt & Pepper
2 Tbsp of Italian style Crated Hard Cheese
Fresh Parsley to garnish
Bacon & Cheese seasoning to garnish
Pasta of your choice (Gluten free for us)
Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Fry the Onion and Garlic until softened.
(2) Add the Chicken and fry until it is cooked through, stirring as required.
(3) Add the Mushrooms and Spinach, season with Salt & Pepper.
(4) Boil the Pasta until it still has a little bite, drain and set aside.
(5) Add the Wine & Stock and allow to simmer.
(6) Stir in the Yogurt and half of the grated hard Cheese.
(7) Allow to simmer for a few more minutes.
(8) Stir in the Pasta over a low heat, until it is heated through.
(9) Garnish with the remaining grated hard Cheese, Parsley and Cheese & Bacon Seasoning.

We generally make our own seasoning mixes but the Cheese & Bacon seasoning was really good. The taste of Bacon in a jar!

Chinese Style Crispy Pork

Yasmin the ‘Yellow Sticker fridge’ did it again. Is naming fridges going a bit far? No, clearly not! 400G of Pork strips for 89p. I suspected this was probably shoulder so I marinated it for several hours just in case it was tough as old boots. Thankfully it wasn’t when I’d finished with it.

Ingredients:-

Pork Strips
Soy Sauce
Fish Sauce
Chilly flakes
Cornflour
Soda Water
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) In a bowl pour the Soy Sauce and Fish Sauce over the Pork and fix well. Leave covered in the fridge for a couple of hours.
(2) Sprinkle Chilli flakes over the Pork and mix well.
(3) Add a little Cornflour to the marinade and stir to thicken.
(4) Add Cornflour to two bowls. One in to flour the Pork and the second is for a batter.
(5) In the batter bowl season the Cornflour with Salt and Pepper and add enough Soda Water to make a still batter.
(6) Pre-heat the fryer to 180c.
(7) Dredge the meat strips in small batches in the dry Cornflour and then better.
(8) Fry in batches until they float and are golden brown.
(9) Brain on kitchen paper before serving.

We made a stir fry to go over Rice Noodles with the crispy Pork over the top dressed with a few Chives.
