meal of the week

Wow okay, so we don't eat alot of starch and meats, being healthy is top on my (yes my) list, and through out the week the menu is on healthy foods. But weekends, well lets just say, having had a long hard week, it definately pays off to eat 'happy foods', lol! To the utter joy of my hubby. Anyway, the other day I wanted to experiement on pork (am loving pork everyday). So I will try and put the ingredients, you can measure accordingly, depending on the size of your pork. NOTE: use reasonable and appropriate ingredients. Oh just to mention, tried to make Grilled smoked Pork on our Microwave (that has Grill option) and it din't go as planned, next time it shall, so ended up pan frying the pork.

What was to be Grill Smoked Pork Ingredients;
Brown Sugar
Honey
Lemon Juice
Vegetable Oil
Red pepper flakes or Chilli Powder

Step one is to marinate the pork in all the above ingredients and refrigirate for at least 30 minutes. Once ready to cook, you can either grill or pan fry on a non-stick pan. I never add oil to the pan, just let the pork sizzle in its own fat.

Mashed Potatoes
Buy potatoes, peel and boil in salty water.
Once tender pour out water and add, cream or milk, butter, black pepper a bit of chilli powder lemon juice coriander (dhania) if you wish and mash it all up.

Peas
Boil them and either fry with onions and butter OR fry onion in vegetable oil add tomatoes and the cooked peas and allow stew to simmer in medium heat.

All done simple and fun, serve and enjoy!
