We had a DIY Sweet & Sour the other evening. In, what is tradition here, we popped the remaining Sweet & Sour in a jar in the fridge. Nothing intentionally goes to taste here. So after what seemed like a long day of decorating Sue created this monster.
There’s really not a lot of point in typing up a recipe for this. But basically the DIY Thousand Island dressing which Sue usually puts on the buns was replaced with Sweet & Sour sauce. The hand pressed Burgers had an addition of Chinese Five Spice and were topped with Bacon, Chorizo and melted Cheese!
Sounds odd – Tasted superb!
The recipe for the Gluten free bread buns is here if anybody needs it:-
Ingredients:-
240g Self Raising GF flour
½ tsp Salt
240ml Milk
4 tbsp Mayonnaise
Method:-
(1) Mix
(2) Add to bun tins (Recycled Fray Bentos tins are cool!)
(3) Cook in a pre heated oven at 180C for 25 to 30 minutes
When I worked at the butchers many moons ago Pork Loin was the most costly cut. So when the local supermarket have a whole loin at £219, well it would be rude not to really....
Ingredients:-
Complete Pork Loin
Garlic Butter ( Sue make her own Garlic Margarine with Parsley)
Fresh Rosemary ( It's seasonal and there a while hedge of it down the road)
Chilli flakes
Salt & Pepper
Method:-
(1) Lay a good sized sheet of kitchen foil in a roasting try.
(2) Rub the outside of the loin with Garlic Butter, Rosemary, Chilli flakes and season with Salt & Pepper.
(3) Fold the foil over and seal the meat in a pouch.
(4) Roast at 160c for about 30 minutes until cooked. Don't over cook as the meat will dry out.
We served ours with seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire Pudding and lots of gravy.
