Crispy Pork Chop By Oven

My husband and I love crispy pork chop. However, deep fried crispy chop pork needs too much oil. So it’s not a good option for me when I prepare daily meals. This recipe is very easy. No oil is needed.

1. Pound pork chop several times on each side. Sprinkle some salt and black pepper for a while.

2. Coat pork chop with a layer of flour, then egg and bread crumbs at last. (Bread crumbs need to be stir fried in the pan till golden brown).

3. Preheat oven to 200 degree C. Put pork chop in the oven for 20 mins. 

4. Out in the plate, cool and cut into small pieces.

Blueberry Pancake By Oven

Original recipe :
http://m.xiachufang.com/recipe/100460858/
It’s a special way to make pancake, because oven is used instead of pan.

I made some change according to the original recipe above:  

Since I don’t have any weighing machine, I am not sure the accurate weight of all the ingredients I used.

Part A: 

Flour around 80g

Sugar around 30g

Baking soda 1 tsp

Salt 1/8 tsp

Mix all of them well.

  
Part B:

Egg 1

Milk around 150g

Yogurt around 25g

Oil ( I used canola oil) around 25g

Vanilla esscence 1 tsp

Mix them well.
 

1. Pour Part B into Part A. Stir till no flour can be seen.

2.Add some blueberries. Stir again.  

3.Preheat oven with 190 degree C. Before put into the oven, spread some blueberries on the surface of batter. Bake for 45 minutes.

Blueberries will burst and the house is full of fragrance. 
 

  

You can spread some icing sugar if you want.

  


Maple syrup will make it taste better.

Roast Chicken/Duck

Original recipe:

http://m.xiachufang.com/recipe/265071/?ref=aladdin_accurate


I guess many people know Beijing Roast Duck. Crispy roast duck is popular in China. Duck meat will be cut into slices, and wrapped with cucumber strips and sweet bean sauce. I can eat a lot. 

It should be crispy roast duck, but I only found big ducks in supermarket. So I decided to try with a small chicken.

1. Pour hot boiled water onto whole chicken.

2. Use a bottle ( with water inside) to make chicken stand and dry it. The chicken’s skin will become tightened and bright.


Oh! Poor chicken. 😦

Later you will suffer heated roasting. Please cool as much as you can now.

It will take hours till chicken’s surface is completely dry. So I used a fan to blow directly at the chicken. 

3. Prepare the mixed sauce to brush chicken.

Vinegar: 1 tsp

Cooking wine: 2 tsp

Honey: 2 tsp

Water: 2 tsp ( said in original recipe, but I forgot)

4. When the chicken is totally dry. Brush the mixed sauce onto the skin evenly and completely. Then dry it.

5. After chicken’s skin becomes dry, brush again. Dry it.

6. Stuff chicken with Apple chunks ( wet bun also used in original recipe, but I didn’t use it). And close chicken’s bottom with toothpicks.


7. Preheat oven to 200 degree C. Put chicken on the grill with breast side up. Under the grill put a baking pan covered with aluminum foil and filled with a little water.

8. Roast with 170 degree C for 40 mins. Then flip chicken over and roast for 20 mins. ( after totally roasted 60 mins, I found the chicken’s color is still a little light, so I roast it for another 20 mins, with the breast side up. And I also took all the apple chunks out.)


After it’s done, take it out and cut into small pieces, which I am not good at.



Then wrap chicken slices with cucumber and sweet bean sauce. Hmmm, so yummy.

I still think I didn’t dry it longer enough. The skin could be more crispy. But the chicken is tender inside. Very delicious. 

Crispy Fish Fillet (Non-fry)

I don’t like cooking dishes that need deep fried, because it means greasy kitchen, wasting too much oil, and getting hurt by hot oil easily. 

My husband like fish & chips very much, and both the dishes need deep frying. I looked up on the Internet and found ways to cook them without frying. 


This was the fish fillet I used. A dory fish fillet. Season it with salt and black pepper granules.


Bread crumbs need to be stir fry with a little oil for a while, which will make them look bright golden and taste better.


I also added some mixed herbs and minced garlic. When the color turns golden, turn off the oven.


Fish fillet first covered with a thin layer of flour, then egg, and bread crumbs at last.

Preheat oven to 200 degree C. In the oven for 20 minutes.



Dresses with some vegetable salad.


Fish fillet inside is very tender.
