We’ve been pottering with this recipe on and off for over a year I guess. I think we’ve probably got it as near to perfect as possible without it including Gluten. If you miss Chinese Sweet & Sour style dishes, give this a go.
Ingredients:-
250 g of Cornflour
Soda Water
1 Tbsp of Baking Powder
1 Tsp of Turmeric
½ a Tsp of Asafoetida
Salt & Pepper
Method:-
(1) Mix all the ingredients with enough Soda Water to make a stiff batter.
(2) Dredge your cubed meat in Cornflour and coat in the batter mix.
(3) Fry until golden brown. If you have a meat probe you’re looking for 75c or above in the center.
If you make the batter too stiff you will end up with a None Newtonian liquid, which behaves as a solid when you try to dip things in it! A fun bit of kitchen science, but you’ll need to add a bit more Soda Water!
When I worked at the butchers many moons ago Pork Loin was the most costly cut. So when the local supermarket have a whole loin at £219, well it would be rude not to really....
Ingredients:-
Complete Pork Loin
Garlic Butter ( Sue make her own Garlic Margarine with Parsley)
Fresh Rosemary ( It's seasonal and there a while hedge of it down the road)
Chilli flakes
Salt & Pepper
Method:-
(1) Lay a good sized sheet of kitchen foil in a roasting try.
(2) Rub the outside of the loin with Garlic Butter, Rosemary, Chilli flakes and season with Salt & Pepper.
(3) Fold the foil over and seal the meat in a pouch.
(4) Roast at 160c for about 30 minutes until cooked. Don't over cook as the meat will dry out.
We served ours with seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire Pudding and lots of gravy.
