Squid salad with 'nduja and crème fraîche Recipe


Buy cleaned squid tubes and cut one of them into evenly sized 0.5cm ringlets. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the juice of a lemon. Drop the squid in for 30 seconds, strain and refresh in ice cold water. Remove from the water and store in the fridge until required.

For the 'nduja balls, mix 1/2 grated shallot with 40g 'nduja and 100g porc mince. Add 15g breadcrumbs, mix well and form into 8 (ca 20g) balls

Place a frying pan over a medium-high heat with a small amount of olive oil. Fry the balls until golden brown on all sides, remove from the pan, season with salt and allow to rest

Cut or tear a slice of sourdough bread into bitesize chunks. Mix with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt and place into a preheated oven set to 180°C/gas mark 4 for 10-12 minutes until crunchy and golden brown. Remove from the oven and store in a warm place

For the vinaigrette, combine 13ml Chardonnay vinegar, salt and 40ml good olive oil in a bowl, or container with lid. Whisk or shake until combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning accordingly

To prepare the salad, pick out 15g bright green frisée leaves and combine in a bowl with a sliced spring onion, 3g picked chervil leaves and 10g pea shoots. 

Just before serving, add the croutons and dress to taste

Pan-fry the squid in a very hot pan with olive oil for 10-15 seconds, remove. Reheat the 'nduja balls in the same pan. Serve the hot squid and 'nduja on the dressed salad with some dollops of créme frâiche to finish

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni

Pani Puri with Homemade Puris

Image
P ani Puri is one of my favorite chaats from childhood. Whenever we go out, we used to thoroughly enjoy the chaat from the roadside street vendors. In every nook and corner, you can see a pani puri stall. We used to have competition, as who will have more puris. Every Indian like pani puri to the core. It is said that this not only satisfies your taste buds but also keeps the kid in you alive. Once during fasting time, in Bangalore, after breaking the fast I had 30- 35 pani puris without eating anything. I like to have them anytime of the day. After coming to the US it has become very rare to find pani puri. We will get the pani puri kit in all the Indian stores. I started making it from scratch as we don’t find the puris most of the time in stores. My daughter loves it a lot. She won’t eat anything else if pani puri is there for snacks. Pani puris have different names like the puchkas, gol gappas and so on. Pani means water and puri are the fried puffed dough balls. Yesterday was my s
