Pork Shoulder - Version #1

Pork Shoulder - Version #1

Yesterday I popped to the supermarket to see if I could find meal inspirations. Sue’s not being feeling very well for a while and we’d both got to the “I don’t know” stage regarding what to cook next. £2.97 for a whole Pork shoulder. That’ll be inspiration for a few meals - right there…..

Slow roast Pork in a large Gluten free Yorkshire Pudding, with Hassleback Spuds, Tender Stem Broccoli, Corn on the Cob and Red Wine Gravy.

This is more of a method than a recipe.

Method:-

(1) Oil the outside of the shoulder and season well on all sides with Salt & Pepper.
(2) Cook at 180c uncovered for 30 minutes.
(3) Reduce the heat to 160c, cover with foil and cook slowly for a further 5 hours.

You won’t get crackling using this method, but you will get outstandingly tender Pork….

Fish & Chips recipe, eat well on universal credit

Fish & Chips was once an inexpensive treat to eat in the evening as supper, or maybe on the way home from the pub. Pubs? You remember those, maybe?

I passed a chippy last week in an area of York where I’d not expect prices to be excessive. £7.20 for Fish and Chips to take out. Just Fish & Chips, nothing else……

You can do better at home folks at half the price…..

This Pollock fillet was £3.29 with a Yellow Sticker on it. It was skinned and I only found two small bones.

Ingredients for the Gluten free Batter:-

2 Eggs, whisked
Cornflour
Turmeric Just a bit to add some colour
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
Fresh ground Black Pepper
Soda Water

Method:-

(1) Coat the Fish (and Onion rings if you adding them) in Cornflour.
(2) Preheat the fryer to 170c.
(3) Dunk in the batter mix and fry until they float.

We served ours with Peas, Onion Rings, hand cut Chips, Tartar Sauce and a slice of Lemon. Honestly this was much better than a take-out and cost less than half the price.
