Coeur de Porc battu

Coeur de Porc battu recipe

Using a dodgy translation service to make something sound appealing. That’s a very old restaurant trick. But read on folks…..

We had quite a few stir-fry ingredients in as we made a stir-fry with the remaining Yellow Sticker Chicken the other day. But also loitering in the darker recesses of the freezer was a large pack of diced Pigs Heart, which cost us £1.24. Yes Pigs Heart! Well that my Vegan and Vegetarian friends gone then. Sorry….

Ingredients:-

Diced Pigs Heart
Milk
Soda Water
Self raising Flour (Gluten free for us)
Turmeric
Freshly ground Black Pepper
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt

Method:-

(1) Soak the Pigs Heat in Milk in the fridge for a couple of hours.
(2) Drain and dry on kitchen paper.
(3) Pre-heat the fryer to 180c.
(4) Mix a very think batter with the flour, seasonings and Soda Water.
(5) Add the Heart to the batter and make sure it is all well coated.
(6) Using a large kitchen spoon scoop spoonfuls of the battered Heart and drop them into the Oil. It’s a good idea to remove the basted so they don’t stick.
(7) When they rise to the surface turn them over a couple of times until the batter is golden brown on all sides.
(8) Remove each batch and drain on kitchen paper.

For those who have a dislike of all things offal (I used to be in that camp myself) just stick with the fancy French name…. You will be pleasantly surprised! We served ours over stir-fry vegetables, Potato croutons, Smoked Lithuanian Sausage bites and dressed with home brewed Kimchi!

Club Sandwich

We’re members of various food groups, I guess that’s no great surprise. But at this time of year they always full of question about what to do with leftover Turkey, Han, Chicken etc. Generally people buy and cook too much over the festive season and find themselves with lots of cooked meat in the fridge. This wasn’t the case here as we’d had a Chicken dinner the evening before and just had the usual amount left over. But for the second out of three meals from one Chicken this was a pleasant change and is also a great way to use up other excess cooked meats.

Ingredients:-

3 slices of bread per person (Gluten free for us)
Mayonnaise
Tomatoes, sliced
Salad
Bacon
Chicken, or other cooked and chilled meat.

Method:-

(1) Toast the bread.
(2) Grill or fry the Bacon.
(3) Freestyle layering your ingredients however you like.
(4) Sliced the sandwich from corner to corner.
(5) Drive a kebab skewer through the whole thing to hold it together.

We served outs with a little leftover hand cut Coleslaw and it was remarkably filling.
