Latvian Pork Chops (Karbonade)

Around the World for £4 or less took us to Latvia for “L” yesterday evening. The following is certainly not traditional, Sue though the recipe was a bit boring so she added her unique twist. We probably went over budget as well, but the Karbonade was a meal on its own without crispy frying the Pork and certainly without the giant Yorkshire pudding!

Ingredients:-

4 Pork Chops, cut into strips

Spring Cabbage, sliced

1 Carrot, cut into batons

2 Eggs

Oil for frying

Salt & Pepper to taste

2 tbsp of Butter / Margarine

1 Onion, chopped

Mushrooms, chopped

Single Cream

1 tbsp Lemon juice

2 tbsp Dill

Method:-

(1) Season the Pork with Salt & Pepper.

(2) Heat Oil on a medium heat.

(3) Put flour (We used Gluten Free) on a plate

(4) Beat the Eggs in a bowl.

(5) Dredge the Pork in flour and then Egg.

(6) Fly for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and set aside.

(7) Return the pan a medium heat, add Onions and cook until softened.

(8) Add chopped mushrooms, Carrot and Cabbage, stirring occasionally.

(9) Add Cream and cook for a further 2 minutes.

(10) Stir in the Lemon juice and Dill

(11) Season to taste with Salt and Pepper.

We served our Karbonade I a giant Yorkshire Pudding with the crispy fried Pork over the top. Traditional? I suspect not in the slightest!

Machli Masala recipe, eat well on universal credit

We really enjoyed this. It was lighter than some of the recent Indian dishes we’ve experimented with and really fragrant.

Oil to fry
Salt to season

Masala Sauce

Ingredients:-

2 Green Chillies, sliced
2 Onions, made into a paste
1 Tsp of Ginger and Garlic Paste
1 Tbsp of Tomato Puree
390ml of Passata
1 Tsp of Chilli Powder
2 Tsp og Coriander Powder
½ A Tsp of Garam Masala
2 Tbsp of Yogurt
Oil to fry
Fresh Coriander leaves to garnish

Method:-

(1) Mix the Fish with the Ginger & Garlic paste,Turmeric, Chilli Powder, Salt and Yogurt.
(2) Place in the fridge to marinade for 30 minutes.
(3) Heat the Oil on a medium heat and fry the Fish on both sides until lightly browned.
(4) Set aside.
(5) Heat Oil in a pan and add the Green Chillies.
(6) Stir in the Onion paste and add the Ginger & Garlic paste.
(7) Stir and fry gently.

We served ours with boiled Rice, home made Onion Bhaji, home fried Popadums and Indian style dips. The Fish was £2 from the yellow sticker fridge. So this was actually a very low cost and extremely tasty dinner.
