Food

That may be the most ludicrous thing I have ever seen.   Thanks for sharing.

But "oh they taste so good" , yeah because chips are full of good oil, bad oil, fat, salt and other flavour enhancers - I'd be passing just on that count. 

I am happy to spend an extra 20 to 30 minutes cooking my nice fresh potatoes with some butter, cream/milk or Olive Oil.


 

So made a couple of new things this week, the first was Stracciatella alla Romana (Italian Egg Drop Soup).I first and last had this at an Italian restaurant near where I worked 30 years ago and have no idea why making it popped into my head last week but it did and I did. I made it for lunch and it is really quick, Simmer some Chicken Stock, beat some eggs and some cheese then slowly pour it into the stock while stirring and then add some pepper and salt.

Serve and garnish with Parsley.

Then decided to make Birria Taco's which I have never had but have heard they are delicious. Bit of a pain to make as it requires three hours of cooking time plus 30 minutes resting time in the Broth for the Beef Short Ribs after cooking. Then the actual cooking is a two person job (thanks to my daughter) but they were delicious.

So Beef Short Ribs cooked for three hours in broth with some pan fried and poached Garlic and chillies and Cumin added to the broth.

Pull the beef after it has rested 30 minutes in the broth, dip a tortilla in the broth, place in a hot cast Iron pan, add some beef and some mexican cheese, fold and cook both sides and repeat. Serve with a dish of Broth for each person to dip the taco into.

They were damn good, probably needed to cook the tortilla to be a bit crispy, not the best looking tacos.

This is Food pr0n at its finest.
