and fresh chopped coriander......serve this one with rice... LOOKING FOR BIG BALLS and posher add in a bowl with raw egg fresh chopped herbs , balls of fire and breadcrumbs mix it all up and make the
balls to the size you want to eat.....! or another idea make the mix splatt the ball flat put in the centre a soft boiled egg quails eggs pretty good for this ( about 3mins coat egg) rolled in a
bit of flour encase egg with meat roll around gently... dip in egg mixture then coat in fresh bread crumbs .... then fry up and make best ever hot scotch balls, can replace egg with cheese
too...
MUSSEL UP .....GB MOULES FRITES.... great finger food ....soup spoon required Soften fine chopped onion, celery n a little later garlic in olive oil and butter...by the way have you found that
frozen garlic so easy and no mess or smelly hands, I know its not as good as the real fresh crushed but pretty damn good..... ofcourse for chilli heads add fresh chilli..... add small chopped pieces
of smoked bacon.....cook then sprinkle over Indian summer , coat the mixture, now add tin chopped toms . now add white wine or bottle of cider ... cook through now add fine chopped parsley or
coriander.... add half pint of milk and one of those small containers of double cream or you could replace both with a large single cream.... still cooking add king or tiger pramns butterflied...
(split down their backs....so they open up ) and whole prawns and any shell fish you have ....add in your cooked mussels about 500g, steam with wine or if packet can stick in your micro....carefully
stir in then with a big serving spoon put into large white flat bowls with larger shellfish on top such as the crabs claws , langoustine and so on ...serve along side big chunky chips... either make
yourselves or you can cheat and get frozen then place in tray with chopped bacon pieces, rosemary, coarse sea salt ,ground pepper , oregano and olive oil these you would have cooked whilst doing the
mussels , place in a smaller upright bowl then use to dunk , you can also get some par cooked baguettes cut long ways into 4 pieces, so their long and smaller put on tray splash over olive oil and
cook till light golden..... use mussel shell to get meat out of other mussels , dunk your bits and whats left use your spoon...... its not too polite to pick your bowl up and slurp from it .... works
well for a fun dinner party.... can be messy , best served with a nice chilled white wine or cold light beer/lager.
SOMETHING FISHY ABOUT THAT..... cut your fav fish into long pieces just over an inch, or size you like by about 4 inches.... can do with chicken too....then separate eggs , yolks being added to a
bottle of your favourite beer, add about half a pint to every 2 eggs ,add a spicy GB season such as jerk n coq for chicken or indian summer, farting tuna for fish any will do just to season
batter,add a little olive oil and 150g flour ,mix up for a custard like mix ,whisk egg whites till nice n stiff and fold into mixture... now coat your fish or chicken in batter mix and fry shallow or
you should have a fat fryer its easier, but a few at a time so they cook properly ,don't burn remove burnt bits from pan ,can then keep warm whilst rest cooking or best served straight away , depends
on the numbers, serve on a splodge of pea puree across your plate with pieces laid across , serve with a stack of chunky chips as cooked above,serve with a little bowl of tartar sauce( mayo, capers
,gerkins ) and a wedge of lemon, chicken can be with garlic mayo or salsa.
The batter above gives a thick batter similar to chinese prawn balls etc... so if you want a thin crisp batter plain flour , add a little spice mix to it as above now add something cold and fizzy
.... beer, champagne , cider or even fizzy water ! make to a paste coat and fry as above . Coat mushrooms superb...... and i've seen it done thick battered bacon ........ and ofcourse chillies
if your ON THE PULL here's one for you new to GB Yeap for pulling your pork.... get yourself a slab of pork shoulder, always a good price.... rub in and marinade with ON THE PULL or CORNISH PIXIE, leave in fridge overnight, but for impatient ones rub in , whop the oven on 220 put into large sided roasting tray drizzle oil over , you can start it off with a quick seal over the hob to get it going,leave on high for 30 mins then turn down to 140 ish cover in foil and seal for about 3 1/2 hours. When ready you should be able to pull meat apart with 2 forks.... I prefer a wet one so after sealing I add chopped tin toms, cup of orange juice, worcestshire sauce, ketchup, mustard, a little sugar, or honey etc.then mix around heat up on stove about half way up pork then cover and slab in the oven.... after cooking fork the pork apart and if still too much liquid reduce down with a little stove work.....sure is juicy ... can add onto burgers hot dogs with slaw, wrap it , over tortillas,fry it up in pancakes when cold or tortilla wraps fry them too..... or just eat with fries and briouche buns.
CLUCKING GOOD CHICKEN.... get yourself some skinless breasts, whole or pieces, if whole going to slap them a bit to flatten then slip overnight into buttermilk.... this will help tenderise them and give them little difference. Mix flour with HOT MOTHER PLUCKER, THE OLD BIRD, CORNISH PIXIE , OR RUB IT ON YOUR COQ .in a bowl and dredge the chicken pieces, bash off excess. Then with your oil nice and hot place pieces in away from you and cook till golden. You'll have to do in batches and can keep warm if needed in oven , tis best cooked n served. if open frying make sure you have a lid handy just incase of fire.....if flattened breasts great in ciabatta with mayo, salad, apple slaw, sweet chilli whatever you fancy. Many different recipes for this so check them out .... can use whole bits of chicken too if you have a big fry pot.... can even put a pot on the bbq and do....
