RECIPE FOR HOME-MADE LUNCHEON MEAT: Ingredient: 450gm minced pork 60gm egg whites (approx 2 eggs) 20gm corn flour 20gm cake flour (or self raising flour) 1 tbsp plain water Seasoning : 2 tbsp light soy sauce 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp five spice powder 1 tsp red yeast rice powder (for coloring) 1 tbsp fresh ginger juice 2 tsp sesame oil 1/4 tsp white pepper Method 1) combine all seasoning with minced pork and mix well. 2) add in egg whites and stir till mixture binds together. 3) Add in corn flour (to stick) and cake flour (to raise), and stir till mixture is in sticky form. Stir vigorously in one direction for about 1-2mins, u can slap the meat dough into the bowl if u want, this will break down the protein hence will produce the sticky form. 4) Add in water in between the stirring. 5) Lightly grease a steaming bowl, spoon in meat mixture in 3 batches, each time spread and press out the layer evenly to remove any air bubbles. 6) Cover the bowl with a plate and steam over preheated steamer for 35 mins or until cook through. 7) cool down completely before slicing. For serving , pan-fry the slices till golden brown or chill the remaining in fridge for 3-4 days. U can freeze if u want to. Note: - U can buy the red yeast rice bran from chinese medical hall and blend into powder at hm. The shop sell only minimum of 50 cents which was more than enough for me to make more than 5 batches if I want to. - The above luncheon meat recipe I have improvised and modified.

I was recently asked to get involved in a ‘fast food alternatives’ cooking challenge with Ramsay Health Care and I couldn’t wait to get involved. I love cooking, trying new food and finding new recipes I love, so I was really looking forward to getting stuck into the challenge and creating this delicious Slimming World KFC Takeaway. The brief was to come up with a healthier alternative to fast food and to raise awareness of healthy eating. We all know how important healthy eating is, but, sometimes it’s easier to grab a takeaway on the way home from work after a long week, or you just want to relax at the weekend with a pizza and DVD. Don’t get me wrong, as part of a healthy lifestyle, the odd takeaway is fine. After all, what’s the weekend without a takeaway? But, what if I told you that you could enjoy a homemade takeaway that’s quick to prepare, tastes delicious and is healthier too. Well, the good news is, you can! When it came to deciding which takeaway to adapt, I knew almost straight away that a Slimming World KFC takeaway would be a great choice, it’s one of the nation’s favourite takeaway choices (and one […]

Here's a step by step guide on how to make the scrapple after the deer has been processed.
