These pork ribs are baked in the oven until tender and falling off the bone. No fuss, and so delicious! With a simple lemon herb marinade (I am not fancy for overly sweet, thick, or sweet bbq sauce. If you find this marinade is too light, feel free to use your favourite sauce, like autentic Argentinian chimichurri, Japanese teriyaki, Cantonese plum or hoisin sauce, or just a simple spice rub), these pork ribs came out just perfect. You can also char them under the broil before serving if you wish.

Lemon Herb Marinade
  • 1-1.2 kg Pork ribs (baby back, or spareribs)
  • Lemon wedges, for serving
  • Salad greens, for serving
  • Roasted squashes, for serving
  • 150 ml Homemade beef stock
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp Fresh sage, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp Fresh thyme, finely chopped
  • 1/3 tsp Salt
  1. To make the marinade, mix together all the marinade ingredients in a bowl until well combined and pour into a zip lock bag. Transfer the pork ribs to the zip lock bag with the marinade and turn to coat. Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight to marinate, the longer the better.
  2. Pre-heat the oven to 180C/350F. Place the marinated pork ribs into a baking tray and pour over the marinade. Cover the baking tray with tinfoil and cook in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  3. Remove the foil from the baking tray, turn the beef over and increase the oven temperature to 220C/430F. Roast for another 30-35 minutes or until the ribs are crispy and golden. Serve the hot ribs with salad greens, roasted squashes and lemon wedges.

Filet de Bœuf / Fillet Steak

Tuesday, December 08, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


When buying fillet steak, thicker pieces are less likely to overcook, so aim for a steak that’s almost as tall as it is wide. It’s IMPORTANT that the steak at room temperature before you cook it. So remove the fillet steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes and no more than 2 hours before cooking. Heat the pan until it's SMOKING HOT if you are after a charred smoky crust. (My smoke detector actually went off when I was preparing the steak. The sound of the alarm is worse than nails on a chalkboard and very frightening that my cats went gaga...so be prepared.)
I prefer my steak prepared with nothing other than a sprinkling of salt and a generous twist of pepper. The add of smashed garlic and thyme to the hot fat (avocado oil and butter) while the steak is cooking help add extra flavour to the steak without overpowering it. But feel free to use your favourite marinade.

  • 225 g - 250 g Fillet steak
  • Pink or regular sea salt
  • Freshly milled pepper
  • Avocado oil
  • 1 Large garlic clove, smashed
  • 2-3 Fresh sprigs of thyme
  • 50 g Butter
  1. Pat the steak dry with kitchen paper and leave to come up to room temperature for an hour or so, covered with a clean kitchen towel.
  2. Sprinkle the black salt all over both sides of the steak and rub in, followed by a grind of pepper. Drizzle each steak with a little of avocado oil and rub in on both sides. Work the seasoning into the steak using your fingertips.
  3. Meanwhile place a griddle pan or heavy-based frying pan over a high heat and add enough avocado oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When smoking hot, add the steak into the pan using tongs and leave the beef to caramelise without moving it for 2 minutes, until it has a wonderful dark golden crust. Turn the steak over and repeat.
  4. Add the smashed garlic and sprigs of thyme to the pan, followed by generous knobs of butter. Allow to melt and bubble, all the while basting the butter over the steak, for 1 minute on each side for a perfect blue-rare finish or until done to your liking.
  5. Remove the steak from the heat and rest on a plate for 8-10 minutes, covered loosely in foil. Serve with roasted potatoes and salad greens if you like.

Crusty Emmer Hokkaido Pumpkin Bread (Dairy, Egg free)

Friday, December 04, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


This bread is deliciously aromatic and flavoursome with a softer, and moister crumb and SUPER crunchy crust. Besides being delicious, there is something so magical and comforting about a large slice of warm, freshly home baked bread with a thin layer of butter spread across the top. It's a joy making and eating this bread.
Emmer is the perfect flour when you enjoy a hearty and healthful bread that's packed full of earthy and nutty flavour. I guaranteed that you will be hooked for life. In addition to being one of the world’s oldest wheat varieties, emmer is also an excellent source of fibre, protein, magnesium and vitamins A, B, C and E. I usually order mine directly from the farmer and mill them at home.

  • 120 g Emmer flour (you can use whole spelt or Khorasan flour)
  • 280 g Plain flour
  • 10 g Salt
  • 400 g Hokkaido pumpkin puree
  • 15 g Fresh yeast
  • 100-150 ml Water
  1. Place flours and salt in the bowl of your stand mixer. Add in pumpkin puree and fresh yeast. Stir at a slow speed and slowly add in water as needed to form a soft, slightly sticky dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 10-15 minutes.
  2. Turn the dough out onto the counter top, and shape into a ball. Return the dough to the bowl. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until it doubles in size, approximately 1 hour.
  3. Once the dough doubles in size, punch it down to expel the gas. Cover the dough again and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
  4. Shape the dough into a round ball. Place it, seam side down, into a floured proofing basket. Cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough proof at room temperature for approximately 40 minutes to an hour.
  5. Place an oven-proof casserole pan with a cover in the oven. Preheat the oven to 250C/480F fan forced.
  6. Turn the proofed bread out onto a piece of parchment paper, so the seam side up. Transfer the dough, parchment paper and all, into the casserole pan. Cover and bake at 230C/450F for about 40 minutes. Remove the cover and bake for a further 10 minutes until golden brown and crusty.
  7. Remove from the oven and transfer the bread on a cooling rack to cool completely. Wait at least an hour before slicing and serving.

Braided Loaf with Poppy Seeds

Wednesday, December 02, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com

A very simple yeast bread dough is divided into four strands and braided to form an elegant loaf. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds before baking. It is crispy and flaky on the outside and soft tender on the inside. Braiding 4 strands of dough can be tricky, but the technique isn't hard to master and it's actually easier than you think. Here is a video on How to braid a 4-strand loaf.

  • 7 g Dry yeast
  • 2 tsp Coconut sugar or raw brown sugar
  • 200 ml Warm water
  • 350 g All-purpose or bread flour
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 4 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 tbsp Poppy seeds
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  1. Place yeast, sugar and warm water in a jug. Whisk with a fork until yeast has dissolved. Stand in a warm place for 10 minutes or until frothy.
  2. Sift flour into the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Stir in salt, yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix on low speed to form a soft dough. Increase the speed and knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 7 minutes.
  3. Turn out the dough and shape into a ball. Lightly grease the mixing bowl and return the dough to the bowl. Cover and set aside in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size. Using your fist, punch dough down. Knead until smooth.
  4. Line a pullman pan with parchment paper. Divide the dough into 4 even portions. Roll each portion into a 35-cm strand, slightly tapering the ends. Form into a plait, tucking the ends under. Place it into the prepared loaf pan.
  5. Cover with lightly greased plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm place for 50 minutes or until dough has almost doubled in size. Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan-forced/400F.
  6. Brush dough top with egg. Sprinkle with poppy seeds and salt. Bake for 25-35 minutes until nicely golden and crunchy. Cool on a wire rack, then serve with poppy seed spread or butter, if desired.

Muhammara Roasted Red Pepper Walnut Dip

Sunday, November 29, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


A traditional Middle Eastern red pepper and walnut dip, this Muhammara recipe is easy and quick to make. Originating from Syria, muhammara tastes deliciously spicy, nutty, tangy and pairs perfectly well with fresh flatbread or any of your favourite bread. If you’re short on time, you can use jarred roasted red peppers instead. Muhammara can be made in advance as it keeps well in the fridge for a few days and the flavour develops even better after storing a day in the fridge, but be sure to bring the dip to room temperature before serving.

MuhammaraFlour Tortillas
  • 3 Red bell peppers, halved and seeded
  • 25 g Fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp dried Aleppo chilli flakes (or 1 Long fresh red chilli, halved, seeded, and chopped)
  • 1 Large garlic clove, crushed
  • 1-2 tsp Ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp Pomegranate molasses
  • 1/2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
  • 50 g Walnuts, toasted and chopped plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 250 g Plain flour
  • 130 g Whole spelt flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 80 ml Olive oil
  • 240 ml Hot water
  1. Whisk together the flours, salt and baking powder into the bowl of your stand mixer. Add in the olive oil and hot water . Mix on a low speed until a firm smooth ball forms, about 5 minutes.
  2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and divide into 8-10 equal portions.
  3. Flatten each dough ball with the palm of your hand as much as you can, then cover with a clean kitchen towel. Set aside for 30 minutes to rest.
  4. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out each ball into an 18-20cm round.
  5. Heat a heavy bottomed skillet over a medium-high heat. Cook each dough round for 30 to 45 seconds or until beginning to puff up and brown patches appear on underside. Turn. Cook for a further 30 seconds or until beginning to puff up and brown patches appear on underside.
  6. Wrap in a clean tea towel to keep warm. Repeat with remaining dough. Serve.
  1. Heat the oven to 200C/400F. Put the pepper halves on a tray and roast for about 35 minutes until they are cooked and the skin is blackened. Put the peppers in a bowl, cover with cling-film and, once cool enough to handle, peel and discard the skin.
  2. Pulse the breadcrumbs, red pepper, red chilli, garlic, cumin, pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, walnuts and sea salt in a food processor until almost smooth.
  3. With the processor running, slowly add the olive oil and blend until the oil is completely incorporated. Taste and add more salt if needed.
  4. Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with some chopped walnuts. Serve at room temperature with your favourite bread.

Roasted Purple Carrots with Cilantro Yoghurt and Pistachios

Wednesday, November 25, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


I love how coriander, garlic, chilli pepper and roasted pistachios add aroma, texture and flavour to this otherwise simple roasted vegetable recipe. The combination of tangy Greek yoghurt and sweet carrot is just perfect. It makes a feast of a light lunch or if you are looking for a more substantial meal, toss it with some whole grains or grilled meat. It is simple to make, and you can use other root vegetables too, like parsnips, rutabagas or beets. It would be great to sprinkle some dukkah (a Middle Eastern spice blend made with toasted nuts, seeds and fragrant spices) over too.

Cilantro Yoghurt
  • 750 g Purple carrots, halved lengthwise if large
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 4-5 Garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
  • 3 Thyme sprigs
  • 1/2 tsp Coriander powder
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Toasted unsalted pistachios, chopped
  • 1/3 tsp Chilli pepper flakes
  • Cilantro leaves and thyme
  • 250 g 10% Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp Cilantro leaves, chopped
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Salt
  1. Preheat oven to 200C/400F. Place carrots, garlic and thyme on a baking tray. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with coriander, salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast until the carrots are tender, about 30 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yoghurt, chopped cilantro, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine and add salt to taste.
  3. Spread the prepared yoghurt on a platter and arrange roasted carrots on top. Scatter chopped pistachios, chilli pepper flakes and fresh herbs on top, and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice.

Give your granola bars a nutritious boost with matcha- a fine green tea powder, packed with antioxidants. These granola wedges are naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined-sugar-free. Substitute your favorite dried fruit, nuts and/or seeds for the pumpkin seeds and/or dried pineapple in these granola bars. Puffed teff can be substituted with quinoa or amaranth pops too.

  • 120 g Pepitas
  • 100 ml Maple syrup
  • 5 tbsp Almond butter
  • 3 tbsp Coconut oil
  • 1 tsp Vanilla paste

  • 80 g Puffed teff (or armanth or quinoa)
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tbsp Matcha powder
  1. Preheat oven to 160C/320F. Combine rolled oats and pumpkin seeds on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the oats are lightly toasted and have a nutty aroma. Remove and set aside to cool.
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the maple syrup, almond butter, coconut oil, and vanilla paste. Whisk to combine.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooled oats and pumpkin seeds with the dried pineapple, puffed teff, sea salt, and matcha powder. Pour the almond butter mixture over the oat mixture and stir quickly to mix.
  4. Spread the mix into an 9-10 inch springform pan lined with plastic wrap or baking paper. Press down the mixture firmly. Place in the fridge for a couple hours to firm up, then remove from fridge and slice into wedges. Keep leftovers in the fridge for up two weeks.

Flower Pot Whole Spelt and Rye Bread with Hazelnuts and Quark

Saturday, November 21, 2020

© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2020 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


These are some fun, totally foolproof, yeast-free and delicious bread to bake in a flower pot, which I have adapted from this Quark-Nussbrote found on eatsmarter. The dough is prepared with a mix of whole spelt and rye flour with Quark (a type of German fresh cheese), spices and whole hazelnuts that would result a rustic, hearty bread packed with nutrition and flavour with slightly denser and chewy texture.

  • 300 g Whole spelt flour
  • 300 g Whole rye flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp Anise powder
  • 1/4 tsp Fennel seed powder
  • 1/4 tsp Caraway seed powder
  • 1/4 tsp Coriander seed powder
  • 100 g Olive oil
  • 250 g Quark
  • 180 ml 3.5% Milk
  • 2 Eggs, medium
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 80 g Hazelnuts
  1. Whisk together the spelt, rye flours, and baking powder together with all the spices in a mixing bowl. Now add in olive oil, 160 ml of the milk, eggs, and sea salt. Use a hand mixer fitted with dough hooks to beat all the ingredients until a smooth dough forms.
  2. Turn the dough out on a lightly floured work surface and knead in the hazelnuts. Cut out two portions of dough, each weighs about 150 grams. Shape each into a ball and place each into a small greased or parchment-lined flower pot. Shape the rest of the dough into a ball and place into a large grease or parchment-lined flower pot. Brush the top with the rest of the milk.
  3. Fill an oven-safe bowl with water and place it at the bottom of your oven. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F fan forced.
  4. Bake the small ones for 30 minutes and the large one for 60-70 minutes until nicely golden brown. Remove and cool briefly. Turn out the bread and cool on a wire rack completely before slicing.
