Pickled Chive Heads

Pickled Chive Heads

I’m a member of various Pickling and Fermenting groups. I saw this quick recipe and thought why not? There are loads of Chive Heads in the local Edible Garden and folk generally just pull them of to keep the plant producing leaves. The recipe suggested throwing the heads away once the pickling has finished and just using to infused Vinegar. We’ll not be doing that, they will be used to brighten up meals!

Ingredients:-

2 handfuls of Chive Heads.
Spirit Vinegar
A screw top jar!

Method:-

(1) Push as many Chive heads as you can into your Jar without crushing them.
(2) Fill the Jar with Vinegar.
(3) Seal and put aside for 7 to 10 days.

The Vinegar will turn a light red and the Chive flavour will infuse.

Chicken Parmo

We had a stab at Pork Parmo a few months ago, so it seems like time to un-classic the Teesside classic!

Ingredients:-

1 Chicken breat per person
Egg for an Egg wash
Seasoned Breadcrumbs (Gluten free in our case)
Italian style grated Cheese

For the Tomato sauce:-

1 tin of chopped Tomatoes
Onion Salt
Garlic Salt
Mixed Herbs
A dash of Cider Vinegar

To Dress:-

Grated Cheddar Cheese
Italian style grated Cheese
Dried Basil

Method:-

(1) Mix the Italian style grated Cheese into the Breadcrumbs and set aside.
(2) Beat the Egg to make an Egg wash.
(3) Coat the Chicken on both sides with Egg wash and then coat in Breadcrumbs on all sides.
(4) In a pan add all the Tomato sauce ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.
(5) Fry the steaks on a medium heat on both sides until golden brown and cooked through.
(6) Spoon the Tomato sauce over each steak.
(7) Heat the grill.
(8) add lots of the grated Cheese and Basil mix over the Tomato sauce.
(9) Place under the grill until the Cheese has melted and crisped slightly.

We served ours with hand cut chips and a Cucumber salad.
