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!

Pancake Cake recipe, eat well on universal credit



This believe it or not, should have been a Frittata. But we had one the last time we had lots of Eggs which were short dated. So the idea mutated from Frittata, through conventional savoury Pancakes to this monster!

Gluten free Pancakes are a bit tricky to flip, but this recipe works well and will make 10 fluffy Pancakes. You can halve or quarter the quantities as required.

Ingredients:-

400g  Plain White Flour, Gluten free for us
4 eggs
1L of Almond milk
2 Tsp of Baking Powder
2 Tsp of Salt
Oil, for the pan

Method:-

(1) Mix and whisk your batter.
(2) Heat a small frying pan with a little Oil. It’s best to use this batter as soon as you can as the Baking Powder is only active for a short time.
(3) Fry on both sides until golden brown and lay on baking parchment to separate.
(4) Cook your fillings. We used Onions, Mushrooms, Red Pepper, Ricotta, Crispy Bacon and Chorizo. But that’s up to you.
(5) In an oven proof dish layer your Pancakes with your filling between each one.
(6) Dress with Cheese and place in the over at 170c until the Cheese melts.

This was much better than the intended Frittata. But man it was filling! We’ll have the other half cold with some Salad tomorrow!
