Pork Parmo

Pork Parmo

According to Wikipedia - “The Parmo, or Teesside Parmo, is a dish originating in Middlesbrough, Teesside,a popular item of take-away food in North East England. It consists of a breaded cutlet of chicken or pork topped with a white béchamel sauce and cheese, usually cheddar cheese.”

OK, I’m sure we’ll get in bother for fiddling with a classic hearth attack on a plate dish – But do we care? The Pork Shoulder steaks were on offer at £2.03 for 5. So off they shuffled individually rapped to the freezer.

This might sound a bit time consuming, but it was worth it!

Ingredients:-

1 Pork Shoulder steak 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:-

Crated 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 Pork 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 handmade stuffing balls and hand cut chips. A bit of an odd combination, but really tasty…….

Coeur de Porc battu recipe

Using a dodgy translation service to make something sound appealing. That’s a very old restaurant trick. But read on folks…..

We had quite a few stir-fry ingredients in as we made a stir-fry with the remaining Yellow Sticker Chicken the other day. But also loitering in the darker recesses of the freezer was a large pack of diced Pigs Heart, which cost us £1.24. Yes Pigs Heart! Well that my Vegan and Vegetarian friends gone then. Sorry….

Ingredients:-

Diced Pigs Heart
Milk
Soda Water
Self raising Flour (Gluten free for us)
Turmeric
Freshly ground Black Pepper
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt

Method:-

(1) Soak the Pigs Heat in Milk in the fridge for a couple of hours.
(2) Drain and dry on kitchen paper.
(3) Pre-heat the fryer to 180c.
(4) Mix a very think batter with the flour, seasonings and Soda Water.
(5) Add the Heart to the batter and make sure it is all well coated.
(6) Using a large kitchen spoon scoop spoonfuls of the battered Heart and drop them into the Oil. It’s a good idea to remove the basted so they don’t stick.
(7) When they rise to the surface turn them over a couple of times until the batter is golden brown on all sides.
(8) Remove each batch and drain on kitchen paper.

For those who have a dislike of all things offal (I used to be in that camp myself) just stick with the fancy French name…. You will be pleasantly surprised! We served ours over stir-fry vegetables, Potato croutons, Smoked Lithuanian Sausage bites and dressed with home brewed Kimchi!
