This time last year we had boxes and boxes of Bananas to get rid of. A couple of days ago we found ourselves with a glut of Cauliflower. So what do you do with two heads of Cauliflower?

Ingredients:-

For the marinade:-

Cauliflower, cut into thick slices
Soy Sauce
Olive Oil
Honey
White Rice Vinegar
Crushed Garlic
Paprika
Chilli Flakes

For the Topping:-

Bacon
Cheese of your choice (We had some Yellow Sticker Blue Cheese and Mature Cheddar)
Grated Italian Style Cheese
Spring Onions

Method:-

(1) Mix the marinade ingredients.
(2) Preheat the oven to 180c.
(3) In a baking tray add the Cauliflower and pour over the marinade, holding a little back.
(4) Cook for 10 Minutes.
(5) Remove from the oven and add the Bacon over each slice.
(6) Cook for another 10 minutes, or until the Bacon is cooked to your liking. Pouring the reserved marinade over as you go.
(7) Remove and add your Cheese.
(8) Return to the oven until the Cheese has melted.

Serve with a scattering of Spring Onions, pan juices. Perhaps some Red Cabbage to add colour?

Asian Pork Chops

Yellow Sticker Pork Chops got the 'Asian recipe' treatment last night!

Ingredients:-

Pork Chops

Marinade Ingredients:-

60ml of Soy Sauce
¼ Tsp of ground White Pepper
1 Tsp of Toasted Sesame Oil
1 Tbsp of Cornflour
½ Tsp of Five Spice
1 Tsp of Shaoxing Wine
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Tsp of Fresh Ginger, minced
½ a Tbsp of Brown Sugar
Oil to fry
Pak Choi, halved lengthways
Long grain Rice

Method:-

(1) Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the Pork Chops.
(2) Marinade for 30 minutes.
(3) In a large frying pan add the Oil and then sear the Chops with the marinade on both sides. Don’t over cook them as the have very little fat and can become quite tough.
(4) Boil and drain your rice and set aside.
(5) Remove the Chops and place under the grill on a very low heat to keep warm.
(6) Place the Pak Choi in the pan with the remaining marinade and cooking juices, cut side down and fry until slightly browns.
(7) Run boiling water through your Rice and then plate the Pak Choi, Chops and Rice.
(8) Pour the remaining cooked marinade over your chops.

The Chops were £1.79 for 4 and the only other ingredient we needed to but (because we’re experimenting with Asian recipes) were the Pak Choi. So well under budget and really tasty!
