Pork Shoulder - Version #3

Pork Shoulder - Version #3, eat well on universal credit

Portuguese Rissoles.

This was certainly a new pastry concept for us, but it worked really well. We filled ours with a Chinese flavoured Pulled Pork mixture as we are working on getting the most out of a £2.97 Pork Shoulder.

Ingredients:-

1 Cup of Buckwheat Flour
¼ Cup of Almond Flour
¼ Cup of Rice Flour
¼ Cup of Potato Flour
¼ Cup of Tapioca Flour
5 Tbsp of Butter / Margarine
300ml of Water
2 Eggs, beaten
Breadcrumbs, Gluten free for us
Oil to fry
Salt the taste
Filling of your choice

Method:-

(1) Bring your Water to the boil in a pan.
(2) Add Salt and the Butter / Margarine.
(3) Turn the heat off and combine the Flours.
(4) Add the Flour mix to the pan a little at a time stirring with a wooden spoon, until you form a ball of dough.
(5) Allow to cool completely.
(6) Dust a work surface with Flour and knead the dough.
(7) Roll out individual pieces into circles big enough to fill.
(8) Fill each centre with your choice of filling, we used Chinese Pulled Pork.
(9) Fold the dough over to form a half circle, pressing the edges together to seal.
(10) Dip each one firstly in the Egg and secondly in the Breadcrumbs.
(11) Fry at 180c individually until golden brown.

Please note that this is specifically Gluten free and you could easily swap All Purpose Flour if you wish. It was an American chap who’s parent was Portuguese who’s recipe we adjusted. We have used Cup measures on the occasion.

Surf and Turf Burger recipe, eat well on universal credit

This was actually far from planned. We had a bit of salad in the fridge and the return time for me from stripping a large LED Screen was unpredictable. So I bought some cheep Mince, Lactose free Cheese and some Gluten free Buns. That would have made a pretty good burger. But on my way back from Coppergate I popped my head in at Tesco. King Prawns were on offer…… The Surf and Turf Burger was born…..  

General ingredients:-

(Feel free to use whatever you have in!)

Bread Buns (Gluten free for us)
Onions, Diced
Cheese (Laclose free here), sliced
Salad (Peas Shoots and Radish here)
Tomatoes, sliced
Pickles, Gherkins worked well
Mayonnaise
Tomato Sauce
Minced Beef (500g of 20% Fat mince was £1.29)
King Prawns
Garlic Butter (Actually DIY Garlic Margarine for us)

Method:-

(1) Mix the Minced Beef with a little Salt & Pepper and form into large Burgers by hand.
(2) Cut the Buns in half and toast a little under the grill.
(3) Grill the Burgers until they are pretty close to 75c in the thickest area. Turning to brown on eat side.
(4) Add the Cheese to the top of the Burgers and grill until the Cheese melts.
(5) Lightly fry the Prawns in Garlic Butter and set aside.
(6) Dress the top and bottom inners of the buns with Mayo, Tomato Sauce Onion, Salad and sliced Tomato.
(7) Assemble the Burger. Go all ‘Free Style’ we did!

It might look a total mess, but this was one of the best ‘Random’ Gourmet Burgers we’ve ever thrown together. Day 2 of Wimbledon Tomorrow, so when I get back we might batter and deep fry some Strawberries…. Yes I’m Joking!
