These budget friendly roasted chicken quarters are easy to make, juicy and delicious. Use your favourite seasonings, though sea salt and freshly-cracked pepper are enough to bring out their natural aromas and flavours. You can store these in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat them in the oven to recrisp the skin. You can make this with a different cut of meat, but you will want to stick with a bone-in, skin-on cut because skin and bone add so much flavour to the dish.

  • 4 / 1.2 kg Chicken leg quarters
  • 1 tsp Black salt (or sea salt)
  • 1 tsp Freshly milled peppers
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 3 tbsp Avocado oil (or olive oil)
  • 250 g Brown button mushrooms, sliced
  • 250 g White button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 bunch Cherry radishes
  • 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley and chives for garnishing
  • Zucchini noodles for serving, optional
  1. Preheat oven to 200C/400F. Dry the chicken leg quarters with paper towels and rub with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Evenly sprinkle black salt, peppers, garlic powder and chopped rosemary on both sides of each quarter and gently pat to make the seasonings stick. Arrange the chicken leg quarters in a baking tray lined with a piece of aluminum foil.
  2. Toss the mushrooms and cherry radishes with the remaining tablespoon of avocado oil. Season with salt and peppers. Add them to the chicken quarters in the baking tray.
  3. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the chicken skin is crispy and golden brown. Different ovens bake differently so the exact time may vary. Remove the chicken from the oven, let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Wednesday, August 21, 2019

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com



Chewy, nutty, nutritious, this delicious red rice salad is perfect for outdoor eating on those hot summer days. It is great served with grilled beef, chicken or fish and pack up any leftovers for lunch the next day. It actually tastes much better the next day. The nutty, earthy flavour and crunchy, firm texture of red rice elevate the dish instantly, but you can use any brown rice in its place.

  • 250 g Red rice, boiled in salted water for 25 minutes, drained
  • 300 g Green beans, trimmed
  • 300 g Button mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

  • 1 Garlic clove, minced
  • Black salt and freshly ground peppers
  • 1 stalk Celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp Chives, chopped
  • Red oak leaf lettuce
  • Sardines in olive oil, drained
  1. Boil the rice in plenty of salted water until just cooked, about 25 minutes. Drain.
  2. Meanwhile, prepare the roasted vegetables. Toss trimmed green beans and button mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with black salt and freshly ground peppers. Roast for 25 minutes or until tender.
  3. Place apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, the remaining olive oil and the minced garlic in a glass jar with a fitted lid. Season with salt and peppers and shake well.
  4. Tip the drained red rice into a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the warm rice and mix well. Let it soak in a little, then toss in the roasted vegetables together with roasting juice, sliced celery and chopped chives.
  5. To serve, place them over some salad greens and top with sardines.

Slow Cooker Veal Tongue with Bok Choy Pesto

Tuesday, July 16, 2019

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Veal, or beef tongue, when done right, is very tender, juicy and delicious. I served it with some homemade bok choy pesto, but you can use other pesto or even salsa verde.
Veal tongue is high in fat, and like other organ meats, it is very nutrient dense (an excellent source of vitamin B12, zinc, iron and selenium). It has a unique, but mild flavour, tastes like muscle meat, fleshy, firm, but so much more tender and succulent. The tongue has a thick, bumpy skin and once cooked, it must be peeled while it's still warm. Don't let the meat cool too much, as the skin will stick.

Bok Choy Arugula Pesto
  • 50 g Pine nuts, toasted
  • 1 Large garlic clove
  • 50 g Arugula
  • 70 g Bok choy, the green leaves only
  • 30 g Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp Black rock salt
  • 120-150 ml Olive oil, as needed
  1. In a food processor, combine the toasted pine nuts, garlic, arugula, bok choy leaves, Parmesan, and 1 tsp salt and pulse to blend. With the machine running, pour in the olive oil through the food tube in a slow, steady stream and process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
  2. Rinse the veal tongue under running water until the water runs clear and there’s no blood. Place veal tongue, onion, broccoli, fennel stalks, bay leaves, juniper berries, and parsley stems in your slow cooker. Generously season with sea salt. Pour in enough water to cover the veal tongue.
  3. Cook on Low for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. Transfer veal tongue to a work surface and cool slightly. Peel the thick outer layer of skin off the veal tongue while it is still warm.
  4. To serve, cut the veal tongue crosswise into thin slices, and arrange on a platter in a single layer. Spoon the pesto sauce over and top with some fresh herbs, a generous drizzle of olive oil and some crushed red peppercorns.

White Chocolate Cherry Tart

Sunday, July 07, 2019

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Coconut sugar sweetened spelt pastry filled with a decadent creamy filling of white chocolate ganache and cherries in this heavenly dessert. I absolutely adore this egg enriched spelt shortcrust paired with white chocolate and fresh cherries. They go together so well, and taste incredibly delicious. I garnished the tart with lemon thyme and cacao nibs, but you can leave them out or use chocolate chips instead.

CrustFilling
  • 250 g White spelt flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp Coconut sugar
  • 150 g Butter, chilled and cut into pieces
  • 1 Egg, medium and lightly beaten
  • 300 g White chocolate, chopped
  • 100 ml Heavy cream
  • 75 g Butter
  • Cherries
  • Lemon thyme
  • Cacao nibs
  1. Whisk flour, salt and coconut sugar in a bowl. Add butter and rub in with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces remaining. Drizzle egg over butter mixture and mix gently with a fork until dough just comes together.
  2. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Form dough into a disk. Wrap in plastic and chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
  3. Take dough out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for a few minutes to soften slightly for easy rolling. Roll out the dough between 2 layers of plastic film into an 11-inch circle, then place gently into a 8-9-inch fluted tart pan. Trim the edges of the pastry to fit the tart pan. Cover the tart pan with plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F. Line the frozen crust with baking paper and fill with enough dried beans to cover the bottom and side of the crust.
  5. Bake crust for 15 minutes, remove the parchment and pie weight. Bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
  6. For the filling, place the white chocolate, cream, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 20 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
  7. Pour the chocolate filling into the tart crust. Garnish with lemon thyme, cherries and cacao nibs when the filling is set.

Saffron Orange Tea Buns with Blackberry Craquelin

Thursday, June 27, 2019

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




The sweet, crisp cracked topping you see on those dinner buns is called craquelin. With just butter, coconut sugar, flour and blackberry powder, this simple dough gives a really great crunchy texture to the buns. You can add different flavourings or colours to the craquelin to create various baked goods.

Blackberry CraquelinDough
  • 50 g Butter at room temperature
  • 20 g Coconut sugar
  • 30 g White sugar
  • 50 g Refined spelt flour
  • 5 g Blackberry powder
  • 300 g Plain flour
  • 6 g Dry active yeast
  • 6 g Salt
  • 30 g Sugar
  • 9 g Saffron orange tea (3 tea bags)
  • 60 g Egg
  • 65 ml Warm milk
  • 80 g Water Roux starter (tangzhong)
  • 50 g Butter, softened
  1. Cream the butter, coconut sugar and white sugar together. Beat in the flour and blackberry powder and beat until the dough to become crumbly. Knead the craquelin and roll it between two pieces of parchment paper until 2mm thick. Chill at least 4 hours or until ready to use.
  2. Place all the dough ingredients, except butter, in the mixing bowl of your stand mixer. Mix with a dough hook at slow speed for 1 minute. Increase the speed to the medium, and continue mixing for 3 minutes until dough is formed. Add butter gradually and knead for about 5 minutes on medium speed until gluten is fully developed, i. e. elastic, smooth, non-sticky and leaves from sides of the mixing bowl.
  3. Turn out the dough and shape into a ball. Lightly grease the mixing bowl. Return the dough ball into the greased mixing bowl. Cover it with a plastic film or a kitchen towel. Leave it in a warm place until dough is double in volume.
  4. Punch the dough down to release the air produced in the proofing process. Divide dough into 6 even portions and round up. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes at the room temperature. Gently press it down to release the air and shape into a round. Place it on a parchment-lined baking tray. Repeat with the rest of dough balls.
  5. Cover the buns with a plastic wrap and proof for 45 minutes until almost double in volume. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
  6. Take craquelin out from the fridge and using a round cookie cutter about the same diameter of the buns, cut out circles of the dough and set them on top of the buns. Bake the buns for 25-28 minutes until the tops browned and cracked.
