Breakfast Burger

Breakfast Burgerrecipe, eat well on universal credit

There might be quite a few posts involving Bacon over the next few days. We made quite a bit of home cured Bacon! This is the third cure and we’ve refined it a little. The original recipe is here -  http://www.eatwellonuc.org.uk/index.php/recipes/599-dry-cured-bacon Which is pretty robust. This version was for a discounted bone in Loin which weighed just over 2Kg when I’d removed the bone and outer rind.

Rub ingredients:-

50g of Salt
30g of Sugar
3G of Saltpetre
4 Tsp of Smoked Paprika
1 Tsp of Garlic Powder
3 Tsp of fresh ground Black Pepper.

Method:-

(1) Trim the Pork Loin to as near to 2Kg as possible.
(2) Mix the rub ingredients in a bowl.
(3) Apply the rub evenly over the entire surface.
(4) Place in a tub in the fridge loosely covered.
(5) Turn daily for 3 weeks.

The Burgers were hand pressed from a yellow sticker pack of mince at £1.24

So the build went something like – Toasted (Gluten free) Bun base, Mayonnaise, Tomato Sauce, Lettuce, Red Onions, Tomato, Burger, Bacon, Mushrooms, Egg and the toasted Bun top.

As the name implies, we’re still eating this, this morning. Our Christmas roast might be late evening today!

Chicken Stir Fried Rice recipe

We’re on the “A million ways to spin a whole Chicken out” gig again. Sue roasted the Chicken stuffed with halved Lemons, sprinkled with Chilli flake and fresh Garlic, on a bed of fresh Rosemary. Which in itself would have been a cracking dinner. But yesterday was an unforgivingly hot evening and by the time the Chicken had been in the oven for over an hour neither of us could face a roast dinner. So an impromptu stir fry was hatched. I even sold out and bought a stir fry packet for 80p – How lazy?

Ingredients:-

The thigh meat from the cooked Chicken, stripped
Boiled Rice
Stir fry veg pack
Soy Sauce
Chilli flakes

Method:-

(1) Fry the stir fry mixed vegetables in a little oil.
(2) Add the rice and stripped Chicken
(3) Lace with incredibly hot Chilli Flakes from the local Continental super market!
(4) Drown in Soy Sauce!
(5) Mix well and serve
(6) Listen to Sue swigging on antacid all night…...

It was my turn to cook so steps 4, 5 & 6 are not wise unless you like quite some punch!
