Budget Meat Packs

These offers are not avaiable all the time. But when they are Freezers are good!

Morroson's Foss Islands Way York :- As collected...

Clearly as we don't eat a vast amount of meat ( We can't really afford to )  This is going to be serveral days worth. Maybe a week?

So broken down and it is destined to the freezer. so it looked like this:-

5 meal portions for £2 each - I guess! Let's have a bit of fun. What have we done with this in the past?!

Well what could / can we do with it?

(1) Cassarole Beef joints for 2/3 (Just swap out the Turkey for your Beef Joint.)

(2) Pasta Bolognese is idea for the minced Beef.

(3)  Pasties are an option for the cubed Beef.

(4) Chinese Fried Crispy Pork? (Sounds good to me!) 

(5) Then go a bit odd with Pork & Chorizo stir fry with the other chops!

All the other ingredients are really very cheap. But if we can get 5 days out of a meat pack at £10 to feed us and Buster, you're not doomed!

I’m really not sure where Sue is getting these recipes from, or if she’s just making up silly names for them now!!! Let’s call it “Slow Asian style braised Belly Pork” ey?!!!

Ingredients:-

Belly Pork
Spring Onions, cut lengthwaysWe served ours over plain Rice Noodles and garnished with a few sliced Spring Onions. To say there are so few ingredients this really packed a punch, flavour wise. The Spring Onions effectively caramelize in the braising juices.
Ginger Sliced
Soy Sauce
Rock Sugar
Shaoxing Wine

Method:-

(1) Rinse the Belly Pork and blanch in Water for a couple of minutes.
(2) Drain and cut into quarters.
(3) In a pan place a good layer of Spring Onions on the bottom, add the ginger and then place the Belly Pork on top skin side down.
(4) Pour over the Shaoxing Wine (Rice Wine), Soy Sauce and sprinkle the Rock Sugar over the top.
(5) Cover the pan and bring to the boil over a medium heat.
(6) Reduce the heat and simmer for 90 minutes.
(7) Turn the Pork so it is skin side up and continue to simmer for a further 90 minutes.
(8) When ready to serve, spoon the liquid over the Belly Pork.
