Crispy Chilli Beef #2

Crispy Chilli Beef #2

This is a revisit to the Crispy Chilli Beef we did a few weeks ago. Recipe here. This time we used Rice Vermicelli from a Chinese supermarket in town.

The Vermicelli was only supposed to be blanched so mixing the sauce into it actually extended the cooking process which made it stick together.  Perhaps not the result we were looking for. But still very tasty.

Sadly those are the last of the “Chinese” Popadums, but they were less than £2 for a pack of 25. So I think we can possibly stretch to another pack next time I’m passing…...

Chicken and Bacon Salad

The final demise of the roasted Chicken and the stir fry pack! We added a few fresh salad components, some crispy grilled Bacon bits and Mayonnaise. A few chopped pickled Gherkins added a bit of acidity and colour.  Although it’s only a salad this was quite a hearty meal.

So including the Bacon Ends (£1.29 for 1kg) Tomatoes, lettuce etc. (Say £2) we have squeezed 6 quite substantial meals our of a Chicken (£2.85) and a stir fry pack (80p) for less than £8 which even for us couple of skin flints is pretty good going!
