Cold Rice Salad

Cold Rice Salad

We’ve been cooking quite a few Asian recipes recently and no matter how well we measure Rice we often end up with some left over. Last night was quite hot and humid and we fancied something quick and light for dinner. We already had various dips and sauces we’d made and popped in the fridge along with some home made Coleslaw. So we just cobbled a bit of a colCold Rice Saladd buffet gig together.

Ingredients:-

Cold cooked Rice
Thick sliced Chorizo, fried drained and cooled
Cubed Cheese
5 Spring Onions, sliced
A dash of Soy Sauce
Mayonnaise

Method:-

(1) Mix everything together.
(2) Serve!

The cubed Cheese was £0.60 thanks to the Yellow Sticker fridge and the bit of Chorizo cost, maybe, £0.60 as well. Everything else we had in, so we certainly didn’t break the bank last night!

Deep fried Garlic Chilli Pork strips

 

There are quite a few far eastern student at the University of York campus just up the road from us. This is great news as a micro economy has developed with several Chinese supermarkets within walking distance. The Garlic Chilli Sauce was a bit of a novelty buy at £1.29 but it doesn't take any prisoners! It does however work really well as a marinade.
 
Ingredients:-
 
Pork loin steaks, cut into strips
1 tbs Chinese Garlic Chilli Sauce 
Plain flour
 
Method:-
 
Marinade the Pork in the Garlic Chilli Sauce for half an hour, making sure it is evenly coated
Add the flour and stir so it sticks and coats all the outside
Fry in a deep fat fryer in batches at 180c until golden brown
 
We served ours with a stir fry and rice noodles.
