I happened across a 500g pack of Pork mince for just over £1 so Sue set about her recipe rummaging and came up with this. Realistically this recipe would easily feed 4 and we had enough left to pop in Taco shells the following day.
Ingredients:-
500g of Pork mince
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
A Thumb of Ginger, minced
1 Carrot, cut into lengthways strips
1 Red Pepper, cut into strips
2 Spring Onions, sliced lengthways
2 Chillies, chopped
1 Tbsp of Honey
1 Tbsp of Black Bean Sauce or Hoisin Sauce
40ml of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
30ml of Shaoxing Wine
1 Tsp Chinese Five Spice
A handful of Peanuts, roughly chopped
½ a head of Broccoli, separated into florets
1 Onion, finely diced
Oil to fry
A splash of Water
Method:-
(1) Mix together the Black Bean sauce, honey, Soy Sauce, Five Spice, Shaoxing Wine and a splash of water.
(2) Set aside your Char Sui Sauce.
(3) Heat a little Oil in a pan, add the Garlic &Ginger and cook gently for a minute.
(4) Add the Pork mince and fry on a high heat until browned, stirring continually.
(5) Remove from the pan and set aside.
(6) Add more Oil if required and fry the Broccoli, Carrots, Onion and Pepper, for a few minutes.
(7) Return the mince to the pan and stir to combine.
(8) Stir in the Char Sui Sauce and cook over a low heat until heated through.
(9) Garnish with Spring Onions and chopped Peanuts.
We served ours over Rice Noodles, but this would work equally well over boiled rice.
Firstly I thank you for your reply. Although I found is somewhat difficult to understand. I would expect a reasonably level of literacy from a Government Employee.
Please see below:-
Your message “ Hi Antony,
If they wasn't able to do that for you, you can download it off the Gov.uk website and if you put in the search bar uc50 and its the top one that you can download and complete.
Kind Regards Jody “
I would prefer this to have been phrased:-
“ Hi Antony,
If our department or our sub-contractors were unable to assist you with this, you can download it from the Gov.uk website. By inserting “uc50” in the search bar you will find the 24 page full colour .pdf file. If you could possibly download and print this we will reimburse you for the cost involved, as this is clearly our mistake.
Kind Regards Jody “
I did not receive your form. Possibly because your system caused us to be homeless and living in a tent for 8 weeks? No postal service etc. I will however complete your form and walk a 3 mile round trip with a heart condition to drop it off at Job Centre Plus York. I'm sure it would be much more convenient for me to die on the way.
However, with the assistance and in partnership with various charities we visited 10 Downing Street yesterday to deliver a petition against UC. We sincerely hope it forces change and makes your position as an employee more tenable and doesn't lead to the system you have to enforce killing too many more people.
As we only receive £430+ a month and the cartridges for the printer cost us £48 I think it only fair that you reimburse us. I can provide the WH Smiths receipt.
