My Favorite Recipe for Fried Pork Belly

Most people have never even heard of fried pork belly let alone tasted it. This recipe is Malaysian and is absolutely delicious! I like to serve it up with steamed Jasmine rice and some Chinese broccoli (gai-lan).

Here's your ingredients:

1 pound of pork belly
1 teaspoon of Spiced Ginger Powder
1 teaspoon of Five Spice Powder
1/2 teaspoon of white pepper
2 teaspoons of salt
1/2 teaspoon og MSG (optional)

And to prepare:

Wash the meat under cold water.

Submerge the pork belly meat in a pot of water and boil for about an 1 hour on medium heat.

Remove the pork and place it in a colander to let it dry for about 15 minutes. You may take the extra step of patting the pork belly skin dry with a paper towel for extra crispy skin.

Stab the pork with a knife a few times and rub the spices and salt on the flesh only (not the skin). I recommend layering the spices in the following order: spiced ginger powder, 5 spice powder, white pepper, salt and optional msg.

Let the meat marinate for an hour, though over night is better for a deeper flavor.

In a large cast iron pan or dutch oven, fill with enough oil to cover the skin of the pork belly. I use peanut oil since it has a high smoking point. Place the pork belly in pan while the oil is still cold to prevent splatter. CAUTION!!! the pork will splatter a lot, so it is better to use a dutch oven with a heavy lid or use a splatter screen to place over your frying pan.

Fry the skin side first for roughly 5 mins or until golden brown and crispy, turn it on the side and fry it only for a min or two, repeat on all sides (it is best not to fry it on the flesh side for too long as it will toughen the meat).

Slice and serve immediately because it doesn't sit well overnight.

Chef K. Damodaran sets a new Guinness World Record

A whopping 617 dishes. 190 kg of food. One man, one day.Or, to be precise, 24 hours, 30 minutes and 12 seconds. And miraculously, Chef K. Damodaran is still standing. And looking sprightly even.

He holds his Guinness World Record for 'Longest Cooking Marathon -- Individual' plaque a little higher, and smiles broadly.

"I never practised this stunt you know. Not one dry run."

Astonishment

Lucia Sinigagliesi, the judge from Guinness, is astonished as well.

"I slept all night, and I'm exhausted. Look at that man go!"

It all began on December 21, at around 8 a.m., when the renowned chef first set himself up in front of six cooking ranges, from where he would not move for an entire day.

Under the watchful eyes of Lucia and television cameras that recorded the entire stunt, Damu initially planned to make about 480 dishes.

We watched him work, solemn throughout, except every time he would finish a dish. Then, Damu would break into a brilliant smile, and happily urge onlookers to try it. Forty-three minutes into the event, 10 dishes were done.

Seventeen minutes later, almost inexplicably, the tally was at 20. There were idlis, dhokla, rasams, payasams, pakodas and chips. So were intriguingly titled things such as Chicken Xacutti and Oats Jinga 65. And everything from crab pepper soup to kozhukattai.

Simple, but severe rules

The rules were simple, but severe. Damu was allowed only a single five-minute break every hour.

While he could use ingredients that had been previously marinated or chopped, he had to have at least two dishes cooking at any given time. (He had six. "He's making it harder on himself!" Lucia had remarked.)

As he cooked, the dishes would be passed out among the onlookers, because the rules also state that everything has to be edible.

"'Edible?'" laughed Lucia. "It's delicious!", and gladly tried everything that came around. She swooned over a vadai, and Damu graciously offered to give her one of his recipe books.

The spectacular in Damu's cooking is its simplicity, the way the ancient scents of traditional kitchens wafted from the clinical space of a four-star hotel.

And we'd left him the day before, nonchalantly flipping a paratha, two-and-a half hours into the challenge.

"It was when about 12 hours had passed that I first began to feel restless. My limbs were heavy, sore. Fatigue hit me like a brick wall." Damu almost stopped. "But then, along came about 60 of the staff from Savera Hotel -- they danced, laughed and sang for me.

It kept me going." At the peak of his exhaustion, Damu averaged a new dish every two-and-a-half minutes. "It was all done entirely manually. No oven, no microwave," says Malarmannan, a chef himself, who was one of those who assisted Damu through the long day.

Damu was allowed four helpers, who wouldn't, of course, be allowed to do any of the actual cooking. "And each one of them gave their heart and soul to this. Not one of them slept, not one left, even when their shifts were over," says Damu.

But what he's happiest about, is that every single dish he cooked is gone, having vanished rapidly into the admiring crowds that came to watch Chef Damu work his magic. All 617 of them, almost as fast as he could cook. Clearly, they really did pass the 'Edibility' challenge.

How To Make A Spicy Crab Sushi Roll

This easy to make spicy crab sushi roll is a great way to begin learning how to make your own sushi at home. I love making a wide variety of sushi rolls in my own kitchen, especially when I am headed to a social event. This spicy krab roll is not only easy to make, but creates a feeling of excitement throughout the whole room when I bring it with me to parties. This spicy crab roll is sure to satisfy any sushi appetite.

Equipment to Make sushi Roll:
Sushi Mat
Sharp Serrated Knife
1 Gallon Freezer Bag

Spicy Crab Roll Ingredients:
Sushi Rice (prepared, one large handful)
Nori Sheet (1/2)
Toasted Sesame Seeds
Black Sesame Seeds
Spicy Crab (srirachi hot sauce, shredded imitation crab sticks, masago, mayonnaise)

Cover your sushi mat to prevent the rice from sticking to it by placing it inside of a gallon size freezer bag, pressing it down to release all of the air, and sealing it well. Place the 1/2 sheet of Nori onto the freezer bag and add a small palmful of sushi prepared rice. Make sure to spread the sushi prepared rice out to the edges of the role evenly. Sprinkle the black and toasted sesame seeds over the sushi rice. Be careful not to add too many as the toasted sesame seeds present a very strong flavor which can be overpowering. More can always be added later. Flip the roll over so that it is Nori side up. Shred the imitation crab sticks in a bowl, and add mayonnaise and srirachi hot sauce to taste.

I love to add masago as well because of the tanginess and texture that it adds to this spicy crab roll. Mix all of the ingredients together gently ensuring that they are not mashed in the process. Evenly apply the spicy crab mix across the center of the roll in a line while making sure not to overfill it. Make sure that you have applied a uniform amount across the entire center line of the Nori seaweed. Grab the edges of the Nori sheet that are closest to you and use your fingers to tuck the spicy crab filling into the spicy crab roll as you roll the Nori sheet over to touch it's opposite end. Make sure that there is not any crab filling on place where the Nori seaweed needs to seal together. Press down again to ensure that a good seal has formed. Using a wet serrated knife cut the sushi roll in half once, then again, and again.

What if you could make your own sushi?

I know how hard it can be to try something new, but if you want to really impress family and friends you'll need to learn my simple method that works amazingly well.

This method is simple to pick up and will take some practice, you can read or watch a video on how to do it here: Spicy Crab Sushi Roll Recipe.

When omelet has browned around the edges and the top has lost most of its moisture, add half of the vegetable mix, to one side only of the omelet. (Much like cutting a circle in 2.) Add half the feta cheese.
Gently fold omelet over to cover the cheese and vegetables, creating a half circle.

Cover the pan and cook for about another minute. Turn off heat and allow omelet to sit a little longer until warmed through. Then gently slide onto plate.

Repeat above instructions with remaining ingredients.
Can be served with Turkish bread drizzled with extra virgin olive oil, or a high grain crusty bread. (Remember traditional Mediterranean recipes would not be using butter on the toast or bread.)

Conclusion.

These easy Mediterranean recipes use Mediterranean foods that are easily available in most parts of the world. The fresh vegetables and herbs are typical ingredients for Mediterranean food recipes and will allow you a certain leeway in substituting your own favorites.

Don't forget, that one of the reasons that the Mediterranean diet is so healthy is that Mediterranean recipes use extra virgin olive oil. This is the olive oil made from the first pressing of the olives and contains far more health bestowing anti-oxidants than the following pressings which result in virgin olive oil and olive oil.

Three Great Vegetarian Picnic Recipes

Three Great Vegetarian Picnic Recipes

It is not always easy to plan a picnic, even under the best of circumstances. Weather, location, who to invite, what to serve - all of these things can be a pain in the neck for you when you are planning your outdoor gathering. But it is especially difficult, it seems, for many people to create a vegetarian picnic that is free of meat. These three vegetarian picnic recipes will help you get past this obstacle so that everyone can enjoy themselves. Feel free to substitute ingredients as you wish; the best thing about a picnic is having fun!

Vegetarian Picnic Recipes #1: Plate O' Cheese

Everyone loves to snack on cheese, especially when presented with a spread of many different types of cheeses. When creating a cheese plate, you first want to determine what type of cheese to serve. There are different sizes, flavors, textures, and colors to choose from. I recommend a nice assortment of cheeses with different flavors and textures for your guests to experiment for themselves. One arrangement you might enjoy is this: Asiago, Brie, Havarti, and Roquefort. Do not forget to bring crackers (I recommend Ritz crackers) or soft bread to go with your cheese plate.

Vegetarian Picnic Recipes #2: White Bean Salad

This tasty dish is pretty simple to prepare and tastes great warm or chilled. You will need:

- 2 cans of drained white beans
- 2 large, diced tomatoes
- 1 ½ teaspoon of lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar or balsamic vinaigrette
- 2 minced cloves of garlic
- 2 ½ tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 minced purple onion
- ½ cup of shredded mozzarella (or grated Parmesan)
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano

To make, place your beans, purple onion, oregano, garlic, and olive oil in a pan over low heat for about 60 seconds. Then, take your other ingredients and mix them in, making sure to thoroughly toss the salad.

Vegetarian Picnic Recipes #3: Four-Cheese Macaroni

Macaroni and cheese is a great dish for adults and children alike, especially this delightful recipe with a little twist. The four cheeses will combine their delicious flavors to create a strong yet exciting taste for your vegetarian picnic. You will need:

- 16 oz package of pasta (I recommend elbow macaroni)
- ½ cup of shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup of shredded cheddar (mild)
- ½ cup of shredded Romano
- ½ cup of shredded Parmesan (can also use Asiago)
- 1 cup of milk
- 2 teaspoons of butter

To make, bring your pasta to a rolling boil in a pot of salted water. Let boil for 10 minutes (or until tender), then drain. Add in the cheeses, milk, and butter and stir over medium-low heat until the cheese is melted together and covers the pasta. You can increase the amount of milk if you want a thinner dish, or you can cook the pasta for a shorter amount of time for al dente pasta.
