The pickles added a very tangy taste; didn't class - complemented! I am having a left over piece with salad for lunch right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a home-made base of half plain and half wholemeal flour, we put tomato paste, mozzarella, mushroom, ham, salami, olives, capers, baby dill pickles topped off with more mozzarella. Nice @jennyss do you deliver? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBooz2 Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Boo Hoo, I was supposed to cook Filipino pork skewers tonight but a total fire ban here today (Melbourne) so I'm not allowed to fire up the charcoal BBQ. Thought about doing them in the Weber family Q but the marinade and basting sauce makes such a mess and it's hard work cleaning up afterward. Charcoal is the only way to go with these IMO. Plus I just bought two new grill plates for the Weber so a bit gun shy on that idea so it will be left-overs and maybe some garlic bread to fill up on. The pork bits that I have had marinating in the fridge since this morning will probably be falling apart by the time I get them on the skewers tomorrow night. See how we go.

Tricky Micky Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Left over pizza, and a few lil' steamed porker, prawn, chicken dimmies 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBooz2 Posted February 18, 2023 Author Share Posted February 18, 2023 So no more bloody left overs for me tonight, it was Filipino pork skewers or bust !!! Boiled up some rice to soak up the Filipino sauce and also grilled some peach halves and pineapple rings in the Weber family Q as a side to compliment the meal. A double batch of home made Filipino sauce did the trick and this time I cooked the skewers a little slower over the charcoal until pork was 71 C whist I was sipping on some COPA beers. Tender and juicy as so a very tasty and satisfying meal tonight. A glass or two of red with dinner and all is well in the world. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky Micky Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 A day in the kitchen with SWMBO. Twas productive. Some home made pawn and butchers pork, carrot, ginger, Shiitake mushroom steamed shumai and home made Thai snags. The bride introduced me to the combo of thinly sliced/peeled fresh young ginger and sausages. (Especially the home made sort) It's a thing in Thailand apparently. The small Thia sausage they make over there pairs extremely well with freshly sliced young ginger So the Aussie in me thought why not whack the snagger in a roll and add the ginger. Viola! A match made in heaven. Topped with home made chilli sauce and the job's done. I would suggest giving this combo a crack, I promise you won't be disappointed. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was advertised as SS but that turned out to be Bull Sheet as it was just ordinary duragal. I complained to catch and wanted my money back but tough titties - no response from them. I see lately that catch is actually describing some of the charcoal BBQ as gal so my email must have had some effect to remove false advertising. In the meantime, mine has gone all rusty and looks terrible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jenny, yes, it is a beauty. I have (over the years) bought a collection from a blacksmith in London. I even went on a knife-sharpening course there. They don't come cheap but if you look after them they'll last a lifetime. Funny that although I have different shaped blades I tend to always use the Japanese-style Nakiri (like a cleaver I suppose). https://blenheimforge.co.uk/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
