Perfection on a plate. There's nothing like a couple of eggs on top of a pile of buttery, salt & peppered grits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beasled Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 A BIR (British Indian Restaurant) style chicken curry with cauliflower, bell pepper and onion on pilau rice. I batch make the sauce which is pretty much flavourless (it freezes nicely), then spice and season it as I need it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda eye rolled when I opened it, but it really is useful. Faster and consistent cut depths. The bottoms of the potatoes held together better, and a better fan of the slices for mid bake addition of butter and other stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still almost 2 months away, and while I’m looking forward to the corned beef, cabbage, and red potatoes on St. Paddy’s, I’m looking even more forward to the hash a couple days later! Good stuff, there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlesmokinjoe is big Pho person, and I have had some good ones that I like, too. Hey Joe! I found this recipe to be a great starting point - https://www.recipetineats.com/vietnamese-chicken-pho-soup-pho-ga/ It's with chicken thighs rather than beef, which makes it much shorter to cook (couple of hours rather than 8+ for beef bones). Once I made it a couple of times following the recipe I started changing a couple of things.. I like to roast my chicken thighs first for 40-45 mins first, which removes a lot of the fat and adds some roasty flavour. I'll also add some garlic and chillies during the simmer to add some extra depth to it. It's pretty hard to go wrong with really. The only mistake I made once was not having cinnamon sticks and using powder instead, which made it too cinnamony. You can pretty much then make pho from any carcas left over, just add some extra meat in the bowl at the end. A friend of mine likes to use duck bones after a roast duck, then adds some grilled chicken or a steak to the bowl when serving. Cheers! 15 hours ago, Phil T said: Back at you David!! Prost!!

Littlesmokinjoe is big Pho person, and I have had some good ones that I like, too. Here are a couple tips: - my wife and I eat a lot of boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I buy skin on, bone in chicken breast. I take the breast off the bone (it is really very easy) and also the skin. I make chicken chicharones with the skin and I use the bones for my chicken broth. If I'm not making the broth right away, I vacuum seal them and freeze them. If the broth I'm making is for the Pho, I put the bones on the sheet pan with the onions and ginger and roast it all together. -also, I put the spices in a sachet which is a cheesecloth bag. When it comes to straining, it sure makes it easier. Prost!! Phil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
