Babi Pangang
The first thing that came to mind after tasting my five-spice blend was: Babi Pangang. Babi means pig and Pangang (Panggang) means roasted. Roasted pig, it’s a #1 dish served in many of our Chinese-Indonesian restaurants. There’s one tiny problem though: what meat and cooking technique to use. It varies. Some go for slow roasted pork belly (this is the more common way) while others stick to pork steaks and…
Seriously Seasoned Slavinken
Here’s one for your recipe box! Slavinken. Oh boy, I’d pay good money to hear some of you trying to pronounce that right, that’s for sure! What are they? They’re a typically Dutch dish: seasoned meat patties (beef and pork) wrapped in bacon. Usually they’re browned in butter. Lots and lots of butter. Because I’m kind of attached to my arteries, and because I like a smokey flavor, I slap…
Peppery Asian Ribs
Your last meal on earth: what would it be? I can now safely say that, along with my Big Green Egg Ribs, these peppery Asian ribs are right at the top of my list. We need a food bucket list, people! I’ve meant to cook these ever since I wrote the crock-pot posting—the comment section has been filled with wonderful slow cooker recipes since then, you might want to take…
Bacon, Sprouts & Apple Mash
One of the things I absolutely love about my new iPhone is the insane amount of recipe apps you can download for it. I’ve tried a few dutch apps, and in one of them I found this jewel of a recipe. Keep in mind that the Dutch are known for mashing the heck out of pretty much everything. This recipe is not going to convert a convinced sprouts hater, but it’s…
Moroccan-Style Pork Kabobs
And then it happened; I seriously craved pork. And kabobs, especially those with a warm, oriental flavor. Add some fruit and red onion, delicious. You’d be hard-pressed to find pork in Moroccan cuisine, so obviously you can make this with lamb or chicken as well. Pork, kinda like lamb, is irresistible when seeped in fragrant spices such as cinnamon, caraway and cardamom. Peaches aren’t in season, so I just opened…
One-Pot Sausage Stew
Here’s one for when you get tired of my other sausage recipes (Lazy Sunday casserole or beef sausages & balsamic tomatoes). It’s every bit as good. Nothing fancy or extravagant: just a fast one-pot sausage stew that is perfect for a weeknight dinner and a breeze when you plan ahead. I used my Big Green Egg for it because I wanted to give it a hint of that wonderful smokey…
