truffles in the kitchen:
meat balls, organic apples, grilled seabass and carrots
ran out of gas when i just started cooking lunch!!!!!!
took out an induction cooker which was meant for boiling tea to cook lunch!!!!!!
father in law bought it from china for just about S$30
we've used it to do shabu shabu!
it was really useful in times like this
unfortunately, my non-stick tefal pan cannot be used on the induction cooker
so i cooked the meatballs from may issue of goodfood magazine in my muffins tray in the oven
the vegetables and sauce in my wmf stainless steal pot on the induction cooker
i couldn't remember the recipe and used the following to make the meatballs:
200g of minced pork
2 small eggs beaten
about half of a large onion, finely chopped
2 slices of white bread soaked in milk and roughly torn up
some black peppercorn
mix the above ingredients with your hands and roll them into desired sizes and shapes
then coat with plain flour before pan frying or baking
i stir fried half of the minced without salt and gave them to marissa my one yr old
the other half, i lightly greased the muffin tray with olive oil and bake six big meatballs in the oven at 200 degrees for about 30mins until golden brown
need to turn the meatballs half way
to make the sauce, melt 1 tbsp of unsalted butter, add some stock if you have and enough plain flour to thicken the sauce
add dill as suggested in the goodfood recipe or any vege of your choice
then stir in the meat balls
serve with rice or mash or pasta
this is not the best meatballs i've tried but they're ok
the best i've tried are a little more complicated with more ingredients
will share some other time :)
had a deliciously sweet organic apple for snack when kids were napping
for dinner, kaif bought fantastic seabass and carrots from culina
we simply stuffed a few slices of ginger in the fish stomach and rubbed olive oil, sea salt, chopped garlic and black peppercorn on the fish
season the carrots with olive oil, black peppercorn and rosemary herbs
then set oven to grill and cook the fish and carrots (whole) for about 40 mins
need to turn over the fish half way when the top is brown and skin looks crispy
