My take on Chicharon

Fry large chunks of belly pork till the fat starts to run, add many cloves of garlic, put the lid on the pan and braise till cooked.
Place the lidded pan in the fridge for 24 hrs, take the meat out and cut into smaller chunks, thread the chunks onto skewers with the rind side matching.
Place on a ...

Re: Chicken thighs

Cheers.

In many ways I'm the wrong sort of bloke to be barbecuing. In the kitchen I usually like to follow a recipe to the letter, the the gram, to the second.

Re: Hotpoint Wok fryer

Sorry for the hijack, but I would like a wok burner, a gas one putting out a million BTUs or whatever (ok probably not that much). Anybody bought one? Domestic gas cookers are just a joke in terms of putting out heat, and I believe the real Chinese wok burners will get hotter than than wood or coal ...
