Steak with Blue cheese butter and Bubble and Squeak frittersJuicy fillet steak with an indulgent blue cheese butter and crispy bubble and squeak fritters. The perfect treat for New Years Eve in together.

Ingredients:-

2 x 250g (9oz) fillet steaks

green salad to serve

For the blue cheese butter 

50g (2oz) butter, softened

30g Cornish Blue or Stilton cheese, crumbled

1tbsp snipped fresh chives

For the bubble and squeak cakes 

1 large Maris Piper or Desiree potato, peeled and chopped

25g (1oz) butter

75g (3oz) pancetta cubetti or bacon, chopped

1/4 Savoy cabbage, shredded

dash olive oil

Method:-

(1) To make the blue cheese butter, put the softened butter, Cornish Blue, chives and pepper into a bowl and mash together. Place on clingfilm, roll into a sausage shape and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.

(2) Meanwhile, make the bubble and squeak cakes: boil the chopped potato in boiling salted water until tender, drain, add the butter and seasoning and mash until smooth. Leave to cool slightly.

(3) Meanwhile, fry the pancetta until golden, remove from the pan and drain on kitchen paper. Add the shredded cabbage to the pan with a splash of water and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Leave to cool slightly, then mix the pancetta and cabbage with the mashed potato. Shape into 4 cakes and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.

(4) Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the cakes and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until golden. Place on a baking sheet in a low oven and keep warm until ready to serve.

(5) Rub the steaks with olive oil and season well. Heat a frying pan until smoking hot and pan fry for 4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Set aside and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

(6) To serve, place the bubble and squeak cakes on plates and top with the fillet steaks. Slice the blue cheese butter into discs, place 3 discs on top of each steak and blow torch, or just pop under a preheated grill to melt the butter. Serve with a large green salad.

Fall Off The Bone Oven Baked RibsIngredients

Oven Baked Ribs

 

2 to 2 1/2 pounds pork ribs

Salt and black pepper

Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Sauce

 

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 cup finely diced onion

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 cup Tomato Sauce

1 tablespoon hot chili sauce

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Salt and ground pepper, to taste

 

Prepare Ribs

 

Heat oven to 135° C

Place the ribs meat side down on a cutting board. Locate the thin membrane covering the rack. This membrane can be tough when cooked. To remove, use a knife to gently slide under the membrane then using your fingers, pull the membrane away from the bones. 

Season both sides of the ribs with salt and pepper then place into a large roasting pan.  Cover tightly with aluminum foil.

Roast until the meat falls easily from the bones, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.

Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Sauce

To make the sweet and spicy sauce, heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent. Add the cumin and stir. Next, add the Tomato sauce, hot chili sauce, brown sugar and cider vinegar. Stir to combine, season with salt then cook for 2 minutes. Set aside in preparation for the ribs to finish roasting.

Remove the ribs from the oven, discard the aluminum foil and generously brush both sides with barbecue sauce.

Move an oven rack near to the top of the oven. Broil the ribs for 3-4 minutes in the sauce, just until the barbecue sauce begins to caramelize.

Defibrillator Database / MapIt was brought to my attention by an on-line friend that there is a major issue with the recording of the location of Defibrillators in the UK. Many are privately funded or funded by charitable donations – which is a great thing. It’s not so great if in an emergency the location of these life saving devices is not known!

So this Not For Profit community project is intended to address the issue. If you know the location of a Defibrillator, have one at your workplace or attached to your property wall, please add the location to this map. Save the map on your Mobile and share this article far and wide. If we save one life all our efforts will have been worthwhile.

The Map address is here

There are many great things you could do today to help others. This is one of them and it will cost you absolutely nothing!
