Pork & Chorizo Stir Fry with Korean Glass Noodles

Pork & Chorizo Stir Fry with Korean Glass NoodlesThe star of the show were the Glass Noodles. They were a bit of a chance purchase in a local Oriental Supermarket. At less than £2 for 500g they were well worth giving a go. We were not disappointed!
 
Pork & Chorizo in a stir fry is hardly traditional but traditions are for the conventional and on a budget of £4 for 3 servings we sometimes push the boundaries a little!
 
For the Marinade:-
 
Ingredients:-
 
Sliced left over Pork Shoulder
Chorizo cut into cubes
2 Onions, diced
1 clove of Garlic, grated
3 small Chillies, finely sliced
Garlic Salt
Black Pepper
Soy Sauce (Gluten free is available if required)
Oil
 
Ingredients for the stir-fry:-
 
1 large Onion, sliced
Baby Sweet Corn
Baby podded Peas (Mangetout)
1 large Carrot, cut into strips length ways
4 medium sized Mushrooms
Handful of Bean Sprouts
Oil to fry
 
Method:-
 
(1) Add all the Marinade ingredients to a bowl, mix and let rest for 2 hours.
(2) Prepare your other vegetables.
(3) Bring a pan of salted water to the boil.
(4) In a Wok or deep frying pan heat a little oil.
(5) Add the Glass Noodles to the boiling water, lower heat and simmer for 7 to 8 minutes.
(6) Fry the marinated ingredients and vegetables.
 
We added a few chopped Chillies and sliced Spring Onions to the noodles for a bit of colour. Realistically this is one of the best low cost meals we've had. We also broke convention by having Garlic bread! Recipe here

Pork Parmo Reinvented

Here we go again folks, it’s recipe mangling time! We had a little Tomato based sauce left from Thursday nights Squid adventures and a couple of slices of Edam from a monster burger in the fridge. Initially I intended to buy a couple of Pork chops. But there was a bit of Loin on discount so I butchered it. Four very thick chops for less than a pound each….

Ingredients:-

1 Thick Pork chop per person
Bread crumbs (Gluten free in our case)
A bag of Worchester Sauce crisps, smashed up (Just go with!)
2 Eggs, beaten
Plain Flour
Tomato based sauce
Cheese slices
Mixed Herbs
Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Mix the Bread crumbs and crisps together in a bowl.
(2) Coat the chops in Flour and then dunk in the beaten Egg.
(3) Dredge in the crumb and crisp coating.
(4) Fry the coated chops in both side over a medium heat until the coating is lightly browned.
(5) Add a layer of Tomato based sauce and then the sliced Cheese.
(6) Sprinkle with mixed Herbs and place under the grill.
(7) Grill until the Cheese has melted.

For some strange reason Asparagus is really cheap at the moment so we had a bit of a treat, with Bacon wrapped Asparagus. Vine Tomatoes for a but of colour and some chunky chips. Sorted!
