Quick Braised English Sausages with Brown Mushrooms and Crusty Bread – Recipe
We picked up some old English-style beef sausages on special at the shops today, during a trip to purchase some liver. Although one of us is very keen on offal, the other wasn’t so keen. Browned up with some delicious slices of mushroom, the sausages were then sauteed in a flavoursome sauce and served with a side of crusty white bread and butter. A great, quick dinner idea if you have some snags on hand. It would be great with some steamed veges, too, if you feel like some greenery. Enjoy!
English Style Beef and Mushroom Pie Recipe – and How to Make Hot Water Pastry
Tonight I wanted to make an old style English pie that uses hot-water pastry and is cooked with a raw filling. Traditionally, pies like this are made with cubed meat, but because I found some mince on special today at the supermarket I decided to use that instead. The result was like a moist meatloaf or giant rissole wrapped in a pastry casing. Cheap and easy to make, this recipe is a good way to feed a lot of people. It also makes great leftovers the next day served with dead horse (i.e. tomato sauce). We have decided to include a recipe for hot-water pastry while we’re at it, as it’s a handy one to know if you ever want to make a pie or dessert and don’t have any pre-made pastry on hand. The texture is very similar to a store-bought pie, though more wholesome in flavour.
Chinese Braised Chicken and Shiitake Mushrooms Recipe
Here is a delicious braised Chinese dish using dried shiitake mushrooms. Easy to prepare and tasty as well, this light dish can be served with either rice or noodles. We used chicken thighs with the skin on and bones in, but you could use any cut of chicken, really, such as drumsticks, wings, boneless thighs and breasts. This was a very economical dish to make – the chicken only cost us AU$3.08 for 8 thighs! Tip: scour your local supermarket’s meal isle on a Saturday afternoon for reduced priced meat. Enjoy!
