Asian Curry Puffs

Asian Curry Puffs recipe, eat well on universal credit

OK this is clearly a fusion job! Our first attempt was an on-line Gluten Free recipe which simply didn’t work. We both had a pop at it and both failed. Sometimes recipes just don’t work.

So this was a real fusion dish made from various leftovers!


Ingredients:-

Left over filling from the Nasi Goreing Recipe
Left over filling from the Rellenong Pusit Recipe
2 Tsp of mild Curry Powder
1 Tsp of Chinese 5 Spice
2 Eggs, beaten
1 Tsp of Turmeric
2 rolls of Just Roll Gluten Free Puff Pastry ( Yes I actually bought Pastry! )

Method:-

(1) Mix the leftover filling with the Curry Powder and Chinese 5 Spice in a bowl.
(2) Mix the beaten Eggs and Turmeric in a dish.
(3) Pre-heat the over to 180c.
(4) Use an inverted bowl to cut circles out of the pastry.
(5) Add filling so they will be well packed, but you will be able to close the edges.
(6) Crimp the pastry to seal the fillings in.
(7) Brush with the Egg wash to add colour during cooking.
(8) Place in the oven for 45 minutes.
(9) Remove and place on a rack to cool.
(10) Freeze if required.
 

I work with a Vegetarian and a Vegan neither of who will appreciate these. But Clay, Jason, Dillan and I will….. We got 10 ‘Pasties’ on of left-overs and pastry. So the total cost including the Eggs etc. is about 22p each!

Duck with Red Wine and Shallot Sauce

Yes that sounds like a budget breaker! But I combined a couple of meat deals the other day so we got 600G of Turkey Mince, 500g of Beef mince, a decent sized Chicken and two Duck breasts for £10. It was the two year anniversary of “Eat Well on Universal Credit” yesterday so we had a bit of a treat.

Sauce Ingredients:-

100ml of cheap Red Wine
2 Shallots, skinned and diced
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
500ml of Chicken Stock
A knob of Butter
Salt & Pepper

Method:-
We like our Duck pink and we served with New Potatoes, Broccoli and Corn on the Cob. Not bad for less than £2 each!!!!

(1) Fry the Shallots and then add the Garlic until the Shallots are softened.
(2) Season with Salt & Pepper.
(3) Add the Chicken Stock and simmer for 20 minutes.
(4) Add the Red Wine and simmer for another 20 minutes.
(5) Stir in the Butter and serve.
