🛖Pork Belly🛖

If you don’t get it right, you don’t get it right. It’s a rubbery crackling and it’s devastating in the food feels.
But I’ve been doing this first step for years and it seems to work a treat.
It’s all about the first 25-30mins.
🛖
Once you’ve patted dry your to be delicious crackling, rub salt into it and then rub some more.
🛖
Put your oven, the hottest it can go, once the light goes off it’s go time.
🛖
Add your pork belly for 25-30 mins or till your crackling has blistered some.
🛖
Remove from oven, then pour 1 cup of milk……yes milk! To the base only, don’t pour over the top! Repeat do not pour over crackling. Add 3 sliced garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons of fennel seeds and 5 sage leaves.
🛖
Turn oven down to 160’ and cook for a further 2 hours till cooked.
🛖
If your crackling isn’t there yet, don’t stress, put under a medium grill for about 20 mins.
Thank you to for supplying the best pork belly I’ve eaten in awhile.

This was originally a recipe for beef brisket and by all means you could do so but I love beef cheeks! Usually not a fan of slow cookers and prefer to slow cook my meals in an oven or on the stove in a cast iron pot if time permits. A stew or casserole seems to taste better that way and I find these dishes in a slow cooker can actually start to taste the same. But this recipe is not in that category. Enjoy! It’s my most requested recipe and if you get the balance right, it’s a winner.

🛖Vietnamese Beef Cheeks

🛖4 beef cheeks
🛖1 onion sliced
🛖3 garlic cloves minced
🛖4 teaspoons of ginger minced
🛖1 red chilli diced
🛖 2 stalks of lemon grass
🛖 2 fresh kaffir lime leaves- I used lime slices instead
🛖 2 star anise
🛖 1 cinnamon stick
🛖 2 tablespoons of grated palm sugar
🛖 1/4 fish sauce
🛖 1/4 Soy sauce
🛖 3 cups beef stock

Add all the above ingredients into a slow cooker on low for 9 hours.
Serve with rice and some Asian greens. It’s delicious!

I’ve had a friend mention that they use the remaining juices as a base to a soup after, adding noodles and some shredded chicken.

Apple Sage Butter
Roast Chicken

This is a simple but easy dish. Great for a Sunday roast and if there is any left overs, it’s good for school lunch sandwiches.

🛖Handful of Sage
🛖5 Garlic cloves
🛖50 gms of butter cubbed
🛖 1 Apple sliced.

Stuff the chicken with apple, sage and garlic cloves. Add about 4-5 cubes as-well.

Pull skin back from chicken to create a pocket then push remaining butter into everywhere you can. This is life changing for a roast chook, it makes it so succulent.

Roast at 160’ for 1 2/2 hours depending on size of chook.

Side note- we recently got chickens, this is not one 😂🤣

These feed the whole family, I use protein powder and I always get questions about whether it’s ok to feed protein powder to kids.
I’m not a dietitian, I can’t offer expert or educated advice but I often use protein in my baking and the amount that they consume is minimal. If you are concerned you could always speak to an expert but also look into a Kids protein powder.

- 90gm Honey
- 80gm Flour
- 80gm Brown Sugar

- Handful of white choc chips

🛖Method
Whisk wet ingredients, set aside
Combine all dry ingredients except the choc chips
Combine and wet and dry ingredients, fold in dark chocolate chips. Pour into a tin and sprinkle white choc chips. Bake for 15 minutes at 160’
