Cooking!

[iCraig]

Right, following on from the Bikers Cookbok thread, which doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.
I thought about starting this thread where people can add the recipes of their favourite dishes or recent creations that taste nice.

I'll start:

Craig's Quick Stir Fry

Serves 2 (Or 3 if you thin it out about and don't like large portions)

Ingredients:
2 Chicken Fillets, Diced
2 Mixed sweet peppers, sliced
1 White onion, chopped
1 Red onion chopped
2 Medium Chillies, chopped with seeds still in.
100g Mangetout beens
100g babycorn
1TBSP Soy Sauce
1tsp Ground Ginger
1/2 Lemon, juiced
1 Can of Guinness or other stout
125g of Instant Noodles or rice

Method:

Firstly on high, heat a wok up, with about 2tsps of olive oil and add the chicken once hot, brown the chicken for around 5 mins.
Next add the onions and brown for a further few minutes.

Next add the rest of the ingredients and add the soy sauce, ground ginger and juice of half a lemon, and a splash of Guinness/Stout (drink the rest yourself) And stir in.

Allow the veg to heat through and serve with noodles or rice.

Top Tip: Make sure you keep the woks temperature high or you'll just stew the veg.

Anyone else wish to add anything and show people use bikers ain't the uncouthed lot people think we are?

Doner meat & chips

Call up your local kebab house, when ask what you would like respond with 'Doner meat & chips, salt & vinegar and tomato relish.

Then spend ten minutes trying to explain where you live and wait 30 minutes for the food to arrive, job done.

Variation on a very common theme

Needs:

At least 200g mince (preferably beef), the more the better
A tin of chopped tomatoes
A pinch of: Rosemary, Thyme, Cracked pepper, Chili
A broken-up bay-leaf
Some oil (Veg, Olive... no matter what kind as long as it's OK for frying)

And, of course, Pasta (again, no matter what kind)

Heat oil on full power, add rosemary and thyme, swirl for about 30 seconds.
Add mince, stir until cooked, then stir some more.
Add pepper and chili. Stir some more until it's brown.
Just before it burns, add tomatoes. Turn down to low heat and stir again; keep stirring every minute or so. Don't put a lid on.

Now put on pasta (water, no salt, maybe turmeric if you feel funky) and stick on maximum heat. Stir occasionally.

By the time the pasta is done, the sauce should be cooked.

Drain, mix, done

For a really quick snack;

1. Chuck a tin of Baked Beans into a cooking pot.

2. Heat up slowly

3. Chuck in some chopped up cheese

4. Stir until cheese has melted into the beans

5. Add some sauce if you want (I add French Mustard)

6. Serve by themselves or with/on toast.

All that only takes like 5 minutes. Adds a bit of extra flavour too the beans!

We're talking real bolognese here.

Olive oil in a pan, add about 1/3 of a clove of chopped garlic. Cook until they start to turn brown, then add onion. When the onion's floppy and see-through (as such), add lean beef mince until it's browned. Add tinned tomatoes, tomato puree, paprika, mixed herbs, worcester sauce and a teaspoon of sugar and then just leave it. Add water if it starts to go a bit dry. Leave it simmering for anything up to 10 hours, whatever you like. If it's got water floating around the top about an hour off ready time, take the lid off and let it reduce a bit.

Serve with spaghetti, noodles or any other pasta.

Doesn't get much simpler for a really good meal!

By the way, you should only use fresh mince. Frozen mince turns powdery, it just falls apart. You should be able to see strands of mince in the bolognese; it should have some definition. And always use lean mince, unless you like a nice layer of grease over it.

for real pasta, you want to make it yourself with flour and eggs

to do this easily, you really need a food processor and a pasta mangle thing

1 tea cup of flour to 1 egg (or 2 eggs to 1 mug of flour) large eggs

put flour in food processor first then eggs on top ( you have discarded the eggshells btw)

whizz it until its like bread crumbs, not too dry, not too sticky

if its too dry add a dash of water, if its too sticky add a bit of flour and whizz again

then squeeze handfuls together to make balls od dough the size of a fist.

flatten them out and pass them through the pasta mangle

setting 1, then 2, then 4, then 9

do this with all your dough balls, and then put each sheet through the cutter on the pasta mangle to make into noodles

toss in a little flour to prevent sticking and cook in a large pan of salted (about a tablespoon of salt) boiling water (sea salt is best, and worth a bit extra)

a bit fiddly the first few times you try it, but cooks quicker than dried pasta so it takes about the same length of time to make.

a good sauce on this is carbonara

fry chopped up bacon in plenty of oil with freshly ground black pepper while pasta is cooking

mix about 3 eggs with about a mug of single cream using a fork

when pasta is cooked, drain, and add to the oil and bacon and toss in the pan to coat the pasta (turn off the heat), then pour on the egg and cream mixture mix well.

The egg will cook with the heat of the pasta.
