Obviously we can’t get a takeaway and to be fair we wouldn’t if we could. So we thought we’d have a pop at the old chippy favourite – Battered Sausages. Actually we had far too much batter so we battered our chips as well!
Ingredients for the batter:-
Rice Flour
Corn Flour
Plain Flour (Gluten free in our case)
Gram Flour
Turmeric
Salt
2 Eggs for Egg wash
Method:-
(1) Beat your Eggs in a bowl for the Egg wash.
(2) Add plain Flour to a bowl.
(3) Mix the other ingredients with enough water to make a stiff batter.
(4) Cook and cool your Sausages in the oven.
(5) Heat the fryer to 180c.
(6) Roll the sausage in flour, Egg wash and Flour again.
(7) Dunk in the Batter trying to cover evenly and fry a couple at a time until golden brown.
Perhaps not the most elegant dish we’ve ever cooked. But tasty! Lots of Salt, Vinegar, Totam & Brown Sauce - Sorted!
Necessity is the mother of invention, as they say. A month or so ago we wanted a bit of a side dish to go with a meal but didn't have much in.
We had ½ a Celeriac, some Onions and a couple of rather sad Carrots. It's amazing what you can create (Or more specifically Sue can invent) from next to nothing. We've had similar versions on several occasions but today's was the best so far. It knocks the spots of shop bought Coleslaw.
Ingredients:-
Onions, Celeriac, Carrot. All finely sliced in roughly equal proportions
A dash of White Wine Vinegar
The juice of ½ a Lemon
Fresh chopped Parsley (Just for a bit of colour)
Mayonnaise
Method:-
(1) As simple as mixing everything together and serving really.
The crunch of the Celeriac and the sharpness of the Vinegar and Lemon really work well together.
