Question: What’s the best way to create a delicious caramel toffee flan that impresses everyone?

Introduction: Caramel Toffee Flan. <PIC> This dish is very impressive, but not nearly as hard as it looks. In Spain it's called Flan, in Venezuela it's called Quesillo, and in France it's called Crème Caramel. Whatever you call it, it's tasty and will earn you accolades! Especially when topped with crumbled toffee. *drool*Let's get flan-ifying!  Step 1: Make the Caramel Base/Top. <PIC> Caramel Toffee Flan1 1/2 c. sugar1 c. table cream (or whatever cream you have lying around. The richer, the better!) 3/4 c. skim milk (or enough cream and milk combined to make 1 3/4 c.) 6 eggs 1/2 tsp. vanilla 1 can condensed milk crumbled toffee to decorate with (optional)Place sugar in pot and melt over high heat (this creates what is called a ‘dry’ caramel), until caramelized and golden. Be careful not to let it get burnt — you’ll know if you have, because it’ll smell burnt! Take the melted sugar, and pour it into a cake pan, swirling the pan to get the caramel to cover the bottom and part of the sides. Set pan aside. Step 2: Bake in Bain Marie. <PIC> Take remaining ingredients and mix together. Pour into prepared flan pan. Place cake pan in a larger rectangular cake pan that has an inch of water in it (this makes a Bain Marie, a water bath). Bake at 375 degrees for an hour or until the centre is no longer jiggly, but is not  super solid either.  Step 3: Demold and Decorate! . <PIC> Cool, run a knife around the edge, place serving plate over the top, and flip quickly. Let sit for a minute or two, and then carefully take off the cake pan. Decorate with crumbled toffee and spun sugar. Or not! The flan is pretty impressive on its own without the toppings, as the sugar in the base creates a lovely golden syrupy top. Serve with pride! Or in my case, tapas!

Introduction: Spicy Sweet Potato and Black Eyed Pea Soup!. <PIC> This is an excellent soup for cold weather. It's filling, spicy, and colorful. Also vegan! Hooray!
It might sound weird, but once you try you'll realize sweet potatoes and black eyed peas were meant to be together!
It takes about an hour to make and will serve several people. :) Step 1: Ingredients!. <PIC>
		one sweet potato
		one stalk of celery
		2-3 cloves of garlic
		roasted red pepper (equivalent to about half of a bell pepper)
		one heaping cup of dried black eye peas
		one onion
		1/2 tsp cinnamon
		1 tsp cumin
		1/2 tsp coriander
		1/8 to 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
		generous pinch of dried red pepper
		a tbsp or there-abouts of tomato paste
		1 bay leaf
		water to cover (normally about 4 cups)
		salt and pepper to taste!
		chopped cilantro or parsley, about 2 tbsp to stir in at end. (optional) Step 2: Prep the Veggies.. <PIC> Cut the celery in half lengthwise and slice thinly.
Dice the onion.
Squeeze the excess water or oil out of the roasted red pepper and chop it up.
Mince the garlic.
Cube the sweet potato into 1/2 inch pieces.
At this point, you can also rinse and pick your beans. :) Step 3: Cooking, Part 1.. <PIC> Film the bottom of a pot with olive oil and set the heat to medium high. Let this heat until the oil shimmers.
Then, drop in your onion and celery and cook them, stirring frequently, until they become soft and slightly translucent.
Now drop in your spices and minced garlic and stir everything well until it becomes very fragrant - then you can add the tomato paste!
Finally, drop in your sweet potato, roasted red pepper and black eyed peas, stir, and then cover with water. (Just do it enough to cover. It usually takes about 4 cups for me!) Step 4: Cooking, Part 2.. <PIC> Bring this to a boil, and then cover and reduce to a simmer.
You'll let this simmer for 45 minutes, or until the black eyed peas get soft.
Make sure to stir it frequently - but not too rough - you don't want to smash the sweet potatoes to bits! And when you stir, make sure to check the water level. Add a little more if you needs to. :D
Once your black eyed peas have softened, turn off the heat and stir in some parsley or cilantro. Step 5: Serve!. <PIC> Goes great with cornbread.

Introduction: Rashmalai (Dessert). <PIC> This is a fun dessert recipe. Why? Because... it's a 3 in 1 dessert! Rashmalai is a popular sweet dish in the South Asian countries. To make Rashmalai you have to make Rashgolla, which is also a very popular sweet dish. To make Rashgolla you will need to make 'Chaana' (curdled milk), which is also served as dessert in various forms. Chaana is used to make a number of sweet dishes such as- rashgolla, rashmalai, shandesh, chomchom etc (these are popular sweet dishes in South Asian countries). Anyways, it takes a while (10-15 hours!) to prepare this dessert and it's worth the waiting so give it a try. Step 1: Ingredients. To make Rashamalai you will have to make curdled milk, then rashgolla and finally rashmalai. Ingredients of each recipe has been listed below.Curdled milk:Fresh milk - 1 liter, White vinegar - 4 tbsp, Water - 4 tbsp.Rashgolla:Sugar - 1 cup, Cardamom - 2-3, All purpose flour - 1 tbsp.Rashmalai:Fresh milk - 0.5 liter, Sugar - 1 tbsp.

Keep them in the sugar syrup for an hour.The chaana balls are kept in the sugar syrup if you want to serve them as Rashgolla but since we're making Rashmalai we'll filter the syrup from the chaana balls and keep them in a dry place while preparing the malai. Step 5: Making the Malai. <PIC> Add 0.5 liter fresh milk and 1 tbsp sugar in a sauce pan,Heat milk in medium heat,Stir frequently until the milk is really thick and creamy.

Question: What’s the best way to whip up a delightful Peanut Butter Cup Frappuccino that captures the essence of those beloved candies?

Introduction: Peanut Butter Cup Frappuccino Recipe. <PIC> With Halloween over, everyone must be enjoying their candy (from trick-or-treating and leftovers). So I thought I'd share a candy-inspired frappuccino recipe. This Peanut Butter Cup Frappuccino emulates these delicious peanut-buttery treats: Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and Reese's Pieces.I've only come across one Starbucks secret recipe version for this, but since Starbucks has limited syrups, it doesn't appear to come out right. That version mixes Toffee Nut and Caramel, but since I found Peanut Butter Torani at the store, I just went with that :) Step 1: Supplies. <PIC> This recipe is a single serving and makes about the equivalent of a 16oz Grande from Starbucks.Ingredients:2c ice1/4c strong coffee1/2c milk - or half & half or whipping cream1-2 tbsp chocolate sauce - Torani's Chocolate Milano Syrup is also an option3-4 tbsp Peanut Butter Syrup - see note below about using actual Peanut Butter2 tbsp Simple Syrup - more or less to tastePinch of  Xantham Gum (optional)I did 1 tbsp chocolate and 3 tbsp peanut butter and at first it seemed a bit weak, but got stronger as the drink melted, so I wanted to put a range in case you want it stronger and/or you want more of one flavor or another. It seems like the chocolate is pretty strong compared to the peanut butter so you probably want less in comparison to get a good balance.ToppingsWhipped toppingChocolate SauceCut up Reese's Peanut Butter CupMashed up Reese's PiecesAlternative Ways to Make ItCaffeine-FreeReplace coffee with milk (or whatever you are using).Peanut Butter VersionYou can try making it with peanut butter instead of the syrup. I have done this before and it works, but it changes the texture of the drink because of the Peanut Butter. My husband preferred it this way and compared it to the texture of a protein shake.Add-insYou could cut up/mash up Reese's peanut butter cups (probably 1 to 3 would do like I did with the Oreos in my Oreo Frappuccino) or Reese's pie es and blend them in with the drink. Probably be similar to using chocolate chips like in my Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino.Utensils:Blender - I use a Magic Bullet at home, it's great for making individual drinks though doesn't blend quite as well as the VitamixIce cube trays - small ice cubes make for even easier blendingMeasuring cups and spoonsCups for servingStraws Step 2: Blend. <PIC> Time to mix up all of your ingredients.

Question: What’s the best way to create a delicious homemade pizza from scratch?

Introduction: Homemade Pizza Night. <PIC> Friday night is pizza night at our house.  We've found that pizza from scratch isn't that difficult and tastes way better. Try for yourself and see! Step 1: Dry Stuff. <PIC> To make two 14" pizzas, measure 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat flour. I've made with all white flour and it's fine. Stir in 1 Tbs dry yeast and a small handful of flaxseed meal. Step 2: Making the Dough. <PIC> Measure 1 cup of milk (if you like making cheese, this is an excellent use for whey), and 2 Tbs olive oil.  Microwave the milk or whey for 1 minute, add the olive oil to the milk then pour it into the dry mix and stir until combined.  Step 3: Knead. <PIC> Once the dough is combined, spoon it out onto a well floured surface. I do it right on my pizza peel. Knead for 5 minutes working a little flour in if necessary. After five minutes you should have less stress and a nice ball of dough (win-win).  Place it in a floured bowl, cover with a clean towel and put in a warm spot for 30-60 minutes.  The warm milk makes it rise pretty fast.  Step 4: Assembly. <PIC> After rising, drag a knife through the middle to divide the dough in half. Flour the pizza peel and roll out half the dough. I roll for a bit then pick it up, add flour to the peel and roll a little more. You do not want the dough to stick to the peel.  Start heating your oven to 425F with your baking surface in there. It's very important to heat your pizza stone with the oven. I've had stones and tiles, I currently use a cast iron pizza pan made by Lodge and love it.  Step 5: Ingredients. <PIC> At this point it's up to you.  The pics show tomato pizza sauce, mozzarella, ham and pineapple. We've done all sorts of pizza toppings. I especially like browsing through leftovers and improvising. Baking time depends on how crispy you like it, I just keep checking until it looks done.  In a pinch the whole process can be complete in an hour or less. If you have time, it's great fun to have the kids pitch in and put their own toppings on. We've entertained friends by having toppings out like a buffet and people make personal pizzas. This dough works for grilled pizza also. Enjoy. If you make this crust, let me know how you like it.


Question: After combining the ingredients for 'homemade pizza night,' how should I knead the dough, and what is the ideal rising time?

After combining the ingredients for 'homemade pizza night,' you should spoon the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it for 5 minutes. The ideal rising time is between 30 to 60 minutes in a warm spot.<PIC>


Question: What’s the best way to prepare and enjoy delicious Peruvian alfajores sandwich cookies?

Introduction: Alfajores - Peruvian Sandwich Cookies. <PIC> Alfajores are delicious sandwich cookies common in Peru and Argentina. This Peruvian version features chancaca syrup, a decadently rich concoction made with chancaca, a form of unrefined sugar whose English equivalent is called jaggery. It can also be found in Indian groceries as gur. Chancaca sugar includes many minerals which are normally filtered out of refined sugar, such as potassium, iron, and magnesium. It is dark, rich, and tastes like a combination of brown sugar and molasses.Syrup Ingredients:1/2 cup orange juice1 1/2 cup chancaca sugar1 cup granulated sugar2 cups water1 cinnamon stickCookie Ingredients:2 cups all-purpose flour1 1/2 cups butter (one and a half sticks)4 tbsp confectioner's sugar1/2 tsp vanilla extractHelpful Gear:French rolling pinPastry boardHeavy bottomed stainless steel sauce panSilicone scraperStainless steel food mould/cookie cutterSilpatJellyroll pan Step 1: Prepare Syrup. <PIC> Chancaca syrup can take some time to make, and I recommended starting well in advance. It needs to be brought to a boil, then simmered to reduce it to about 1/8th it's volume. This should be done at as low a heat as possible to prevent it bubbling over. It should also be stirred frequently.Place the water, cinnamon, chancaca, and sugar in a heavy-bottomed stainless steel sauce pot over medium heat. The chancaca sugar should break up easily during heating. Stir frequently. Bring to a boil. Add orange juice then simmer for up to 30 minutes until thick and syrupy. Allow to cool. Step 2: Prepare Dough. <PIC> Add the flour, butter, vanilla, and confectioner's sugar to a bowl and mix until a dough forms. Place the dough in a refrigerator for at least 20 minutes. Place dough ball on a well-floured pastry board and proceed to the next step. Step 3: Cut and Bake Cookies. <PIC> Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Roll out the dough gently to a thickness of between 1/4 and 1/8 inch depending on your preference. I like my cookies a little thicker at 1/4", but this will result in fewer cookies (in any event, you are going to have leftover syrup). Cut with your favorite cookie cutter or mould.Bake in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 15-20 minutes until browned. Allow to cool. Step 4: Alfajores, Assemble! :). <PIC> Spoon syrup onto an upside-down cooke and cover with a rightside-up cookie. Assemble until all cookies have been used. There will be some syrup left over, which is incredible on ice cream, pancakes, and in cheesecake.Enjoy!


Question: What steps should I follow to prepare the dough for 'Alfajores - Peruvian Sandwich Cookies' before rolling it out?

Question: What are the best techniques for crafting a delicious adult slush that’s perfect for summer gatherings?

Introduction: Adult Slush. <PIC> These days there are lots of alcohol frozen drink pouches onthe market.  These are great for a tasty cool treat in summer, but you can’t recycle the container.  Here is an idea to make a frozen drink using small bottles that you would otherwise toss in the recycling bin. Step 1: . <PIC> You will need:A quantity of small plastic bottles Recipe ingredients (recipe at end)4 Quart saucepanFunnelMeasuring cup with pouring lipStrawsThe number of bottles you will need depends on the size of the bottles you saved from the recycler and whether or not you are going to add soda to the bottle when serving.  I ended up using 12 (10 oz) plastic water bottles.   I don’t recommend glass bottles because of the danger of the bottle shattering if filled too full. (The plastic bottle will also shatter if filled too full, but I’d rather deal with plastic shards if I make a mistake than glass shards.) Step 2: . <PIC> Bring the water and sugar to a boil in the saucepan.  Add the concentrates and mix well.  Turn off the heat once the sugar has dissolved.  Once the liquid is  cool enough to handle.  (You should be able to stick your finger in the liquid without saying bad words), add the alcohol.   I know the picture shows me just dumping in the bottle, but I was just kidding, measure it.  Too much alcohol and it won’t freeze properly, too little and it will take forever to thaw. Step 3: . <PIC> After you add the rum and brandy, use a pitcher or measuring cup with a pour spout and funnel to fill bottles about ½ to 2/3 full. Place in freezer.  (Man, I need to defrost that thing)  Take out of the freezer about 10 to 15 minutes before serving.  Stick in a straw and add soda if you like (at most of the parties I attended, parents drank the straight slush and the kids finished off the soda).  If you are taking these to a friend’s party, toss them in a cooler and they should be fine when you arrive.  The recipe mentions a variation with alcohol soaked fruit.  This would be fine if you are using wide mouthed bottles, but I wouldn’t recommend it if the bottles you are using have a small opening. Step 4: . <PIC> I adapted this recipe from one I found years ago in one of those supermarket recipe booklets that you find by the checkout.Slush3 cups water¾ cup sugar36 oz frozen drink concentrate, your choice of flavors1 pint Rum1 pint BrandyLemon Lime SodaBring water and sugar to a boil (3 minutes).  Thaw concentrates and mix with water in a non-metal 1 gallon container with a wide rim (I like a Thermos water jug).   Add rum and brandy.  Freeze at least 12 hours.  Thaw 15 minutes before serving.  Mix in glass with lemon lime drink.Variation:  I like to soak fruit in alcohol and add it to the container when partially frozen.  If you add it too soon, it will just sink down to the bottom. Step 5: . <PIC> Time to enjoy!!


Question: In the preparation of 'Adult Slush,' what steps should I follow to combine the ingredients, and why should I measure the alcohol?

To prepare 'Adult Slush,' you should bring water and sugar to a boil, then add the concentrates and mix well. After the sugar has dissolved and the liquid is cool enough to handle, measure the alcohol before adding it to ensure proper freezing. It's important to get the measurement right since too much alcohol will prevent it from freezing properly, while too little will delay thawing.<PIC>

Question: What are the key steps involved in dismantling a whole chicken at home for optimal use?

Introduction: Dismantle a Chicken. <PIC> As a recovering vegetarian, I am always learning all sorts of new meat related skills. Most people probably already know how to do this, but I had to look it up, so I figured there would be other meat newbies like me who could use the instructable.
I started buying whole chickens and dismantling them myself to save some money. The more slices a butcher does for you, the more money you pay. Not only do you get more meat for your buck, but you can use the valuable bones for making your own chicken stock. So here is how to take apart a whole chicken, neatly, in about 5 minutes.
I am doing two at a time here so don't be confused when you suddenly see 4 chicken wings. It's not a mutant chicken, they were just on sale!Hardware:
- 1 very sharp chef's or boning knife
- Clean cutting board
- Bowl or ziplock bag for the meatSoftware:
- 1 whole chickenMethod:
Separate the wings. Cut in half, and remove the tips.
Remove the legs by slicing between body and thigh, popping the hip bone, and removing it.
Separate thigh from drumstick by cutting cleanly through the middle joint.
Remove the breasts by slicing them off of breast bone.
Cut carcass in half and use for soup stock! Step 1: The Wings. <PIC> With the chicken breast side down, hold up the wing and make a slice just underneath it to reveal the joint. Slice cleanly through the joint. Repeat with the other wing.
If you're cooking the wing, you can remove the nubbin. There's very little to eat on it and they usually burn anyway. I set mine aside for making soup stock later.
If you'd like, separate the wing into 2 sections by cutting clean through the joint at the elbow.  Step 2: The Legs. <PIC> To remove the legs, flip the chicken over so it's breast side up.
Pull the leg away from the body and slice through the skin between the body and both sides of the thigh.
Bend the whole leg firmly away from the body until you see the ball of the thigh bone pops from the hip socket.  Cut between the ball and the socket to separate the leg.
Repeat with the other leg.
You can separate the thigh and drumstick by cutting firmly through the joint between the drumstick and the thigh.  Step 3: The Breast. <PIC> There's a few ways to do the breast, but I like to keep from slicing through the bones as much as possible.
I bring my knife to the side of the beast, where you can see it connects with the breastbone.
Slice along the bone cleanly, following the shape of the breast. As you come to the middle, stop.
Bring your knife up over the breast, and slice along the middle to separate the breast.
This saves having to much around with cutting through the rib cage and connective tissues, but it does run the risk of leaving more meat on the bone. Repeat on the other side.  Step 4: The Rest. <PIC> There, you now have a whole chicken separated neatly into wings, thighs, drumstick and breasts.
Now you have cleaned the meat from the bones, you also have a chicken carcass left over.
You can toss it in the garbage (sacrilege!), cut it in half and use it to make soup stock, freeze it for later, or voodoo up yourself an army of walking chicken skeletons.


Question: How do you properly separate the legs from the body when dismantling a chicken?

To separate the legs from the chicken, first flip it over so it's breast side up. Pull the leg away from the body and slice through the skin between the body and the thigh. Then bend the leg firmly away until you hear the ball of the thigh bone pop from the hip socket, and cut between the ball and the socket to completely remove the leg.<PIC>

Question: What is the overall process for making traditional Italian bread at home?

Introduction: Italian Bread . <PIC> This is a great recipe for a dense, hard crust, and very delicious to eat. Ingredients: 1 5 lb bag of flour1 3 pack of active dry yeast 5 cups of milk1 stick of buttera pinch of salt Step 1: Prepare Your Milk. <PIC> Heat the milk in a sauce pan, and add the stick of butter.  Stir until the butter is completely melted into milk, turn off the heat and allow to cool.   It is very important the milk is room temperature before moving on to the next step.  Ice can be added to aid in the cooling process, but be careful not to chill beyond room temp.  Step 2: Prepare for Mixing. <PIC> Add the entire 5 lb bag of flour into a large mixing bowl and create a crater in the center of the flour.  Pour the milk mix into the center of the flour.  Verify that the mix is no longer hot from the cooking. (if the milk is too hot it will kill the yeast).  Cut each of the 3 packets open in the yeast pack and pour into the mix of milk/butter.  Step 3: Mixing the Dough. <PIC> Spoon the yeast to mix it in, then using your hands break up any clumps to distribute the yeast throughout the milk.  Allow the mixture to set for 10-15 minutes to allow the yeast to activate.  Using your hands pull the flour edges down into the milk, and begin to mix the dough.  Work the dough with your hands to mix all dry flour into liquid mix.  The dough should start to become consistent in form.  If the dough is still too sticky(sticking to your hands) after about five minutes of mixing then add flour until the dough no longer sticks to your hands.  If the dough becomes flaky or doesn't not hold together you added to much.  In this case add water until you the mix is evenly mixed and the dough does not stick to your hands.  Kneed the dough for up to ten minutes or until the dough is consistently mixed.  Take the dough ball out of the bowl, and grease the edges of the pan to prevent sticking during the rising.  Put the dough back into the bowl and cover.  let it rest/rise for 45 minutes.  Step 4: Punch the Dough Down. <PIC> After 45 minutes has passed the dough should have risen to twice its size.  Punch down the dough and allow it to rest.  After resting cut the dough into chunks that will fill a loaf pan half way.  Cover the pans and allow the dough to rise in the loaf pan for 30-45 minutes.  It will be complete when you see the bump coming through the covering cloth.  Step 5: Bake the Bread. Put the bread pans in the middle rack of a pre-heated oven set to 350 degrees F.  Bake for 10 - 20 minutes.  Bake time will very based on elevation.  Bread will be done when crust has a golden brown look on top.  Pull out of oven allow to cool and enjoy.  Eat or freeze the bread with in 1 week after cooking as there are no preservatives in the bread to prevent molding.


Question: Why is it crucial for the milk mixture to be at room temperature when making Italian Bread?

Add 2 cups of flour and mix until smooth. Add yeast mixture. Mix in remaining flour until dough is easy to handle. Knead dough on lightly floured surface for 5 to 10 minutes. Place in well-greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in size, usually 1 to 1 1/2 hours. When doubled in size, punch down dough. Roll out on a floured surface into a 15 by 9-inch rectangle. Spread melted butter all over dough. Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over buttered dough. Sprinkle with bacon bits. Beginning at the 15-inch side, roll up dough and pinch edge together to seal. Cut into 12 to 15 slices. Coat the bottom of baking pan with butter and sprinkle with sugar. Place cinnamon roll slices close together in the pan and let rise until dough is doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake for about 30 minutes or until nicely browned. Spread caramel and more bacon over slightly cooled rolls.

Question: What exciting process do you follow to transform your favorite toys into delightful chocolates?

Introduction: Turn Your Favorite Toys, Into Chocolates!. <PIC> Custom Chocolates!
You can buy many different shapes for chocolates, but for something truly unique, you need your own special design, maybe even many special chocolate mold designs. We used ComposiMold - FC, (which stands for Food Contact) because we liked the reusability of the product.
Simply choose the toy, ornament, craft, or any small object and make a mold using ComposiMold.

Pour the melted ComposiMold over the selected item, and let cool. You may have to use a polymer clay or tape to prevent the object from floating in the mold material.
After the mold has cooled, remove the toy from the mold, and you are ready to pour the chocolate!
Chocolate can usually be melted in the microwave (depending on the chocolate)... Use short time intervals, and stir the chocolate frequently to make sure it gets melted. Chocolate into your Molds
Once the chocolate is melted, pour it into your unique chocolate mold using a spoon, stick, or brush to fill the mold. Tap the bottom and sides to get air bubbles out of the chocolate. This will leave little holes in the chocolate if you don’t. You may like using a squeeze bottle to push the chocolate into small openings and crevices.
Cool the chocolate in the mold by placing in the refrigerator or freezer.
Peel the mold away from the chocolate as much as possible so you do not put a lot of pressure on the chocolate.
Now you can eat your toys!


Question: In the recipe 'Turn Your Favorite Toys Into Chocolates,' what tools can I use to pour melted chocolate into the mold and how can I prevent air bubbles?

In the recipe 'Turn Your Favorite Toys Into Chocolates,' you can use a spoon, stick, or brush to pour melted chocolate into the unique chocolate mold. To prevent air bubbles, tap the bottom and sides of the mold after pouring.<PIC>


Question: What’s the best way to prepare a delicious shredded pork dish with bak choy?

Introduction: Shredded Pork With Bak Choy . <PIC> This is my go-to Chinese dish when I'm feeling lazy, but still want to make dinner (and have leftovers for tomorrow). The simple recipe of meat, vegetable, marinade, and stir fry is am easy and failsafe way for a cheap and nutritious meal.  Step 1: Ingredients. <PIC> Ingredients1 bowl of shredded (or ground) pork1 handful of baby bak choy 3 cloves of garlicLight soy sauceCorn Starch SaltTIP: Use about 2-3 times as much bak choy as you actually want to eat, as this vegetable tends to shrink drastically when you stir fry!  Step 2: Prep Your Ingredients. <PIC> Prepare your ingredients for cooking:Slice or mince the cloves of garlicMarinate the pork with a couple tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of corn starch, and the garlic (the corn starch is optional here, but adding it in really helps to tenderize the meat!)Cut off the ends of the bak choy and wash the leaves thoroughly  Step 3: Cook the Meat. <PIC> After marinating the meat for about ~5-10min, it's time to cook the meat. I usually stir fry meat before veggies because they take longer to cook, and I like to make sure the meat is cooked through before I start adding in vegetables. Heat the pan on high heat with ~2 tablespoons of cooking oilWhen the pan is heated enough, add the meat, garlic, and marinade into the pan Cook the meat until the pink disappears - if you aren't sure if the meat is cooked enough, simply cut a shred in half and check to make sure there is no pink on the inside  Step 4: Add in the Bak Choy. <PIC> When the meat is cooked, add in the bak choy, and you're done.Add the bak choy to the pan and stir fryThe bak choy will shrink drastically as you cook, and darken in color. Continuously taste-test the bak choy and add in salt to taste (for the amount shown in the pictures, I like to start at around 0.5 teaspoons)You know you're done when the leaves of the vegetable have darkened, and the stems look less stiff. Let it cool a bit, and serve over rice for a simple and quick dinner!


Question: Before cooking 'Shredded Pork With Bak Choy,' how should the pork be prepared, and what benefit does corn starch provide?

Matcha (Matcha xD)
Chasen (whisk)
Chashaku (spoon)
Chawan (bowl)
You can of course use a "normal" whisk and a teaspoon or bowl but you will get the best results with these.
(if you are going to use something else than a proper chawan then atleast see that it is as big as the chawan, because you must be able to whisk it good) Step 2: The Matcha Powder. <PIC>

(meanwhile boil the water. the water must reach boiling temperature otherwhise you will not get any "foam") Step 3: Finishing. <PIC> Add the water (to little less than half of the Chawan, I have little too much water in the chawan) that has been resting for 4 min (after the boil)
and then whisk it until you get foam. Step 4: Drinking It. <PIC>

On the first zip take about half of the tea.
On the second zip take the rest of the tea leaving the foam.
Then zip up the foam after the second zip.

Question: What are the key steps to crafting homemade corn tortillas using just three ingredients while keeping them gluten-free?

Introduction: How to Make Corn Tortillas 3 Ingredients and Gluten Free. In this instructable, I will show you how to make Corn Tortillas with three ingredients and gluten free. A full instruction and downloadable recipe can be found on The Tortilla Channel.The tortilla is the base of the Mexican kitchen but also an egg dish in the Spanish kitchen. I have found that just about any culture has it’s own tortilla. That is why you can’t go wrong with a “tortilla”.I always used store bought tortillas thinking it would be either to difficult or take to much time to make them from scratch. Until I found how easy it is to make my own corn tortillas.  Ok they may not look the same as store bought ones or taste the same (they taste better in my opinion). The best part is you can use them as a base for other recipes think tacos or tortilla chips. Step 1: What Do You Need to Make This Recipe. <PIC> For corn tortillas you have to use special corn flour which is called Masa Harina. You should not confuse it with polenta flour or cornstarch. Masa Harina can be white or yellow. I bought the white variety but the yellow is even nicer with the happy color. As soon as you open the packet you smell taco making preparing even better. I found the flower online and it is also available in several varieties at Amazon.com.Besides the right flour it is also important to have a tortilla press or use a rolling pin. Put some plastic between the press and remove the dough as soon as you press else it can be more difficult to get them out. Either lay them apart or press just before you put the tortilla in a hot pan. Step 2: Instructions. <PIC> Put the 2 cups of Masa Harina in a bowl.  Add the salt to the bowl and stir thoroughly. Add 1 cup of hot water and stir again with a wooden spoon before adding the additional half cup of hot water.  Knead the dough into a consistent ball. Cover with a towel. Rest the dough for 1 hour. Create balls the size of a golf bal. Heat a large pan. Cover the tortilla press with plastic and press the tortilla. Cook the tortilla on medium to high heat for about 1 minute until the tortillas get some color. Turn and heat the other side of the tortilla for also 1 minute.  Store in a tortilla warmer or keep in a cloth. Step 3: Notes. <PIC> Make sure the water is hot to properly activate the Masa Harina.  I use a non stick pan to cook the tortillas without any oil or butter. You can store the torillas in a ziplock plastic bag in the refrigerator for about 1 week or in the freezer. You can heat them in a pan or in the microwave using a ziplock bag or cloth to cover them. Step 4: Watch the One Minute Video.

Question: What’s the best way to prepare a delicious curry paneer pizza using naan and chicken?

Introduction: Simple Curry Paneer Pizza. <PIC> Thanks to the Indian Cuisine Contest for inspiring me to create one of the tastiest dishes I have ever made! This easy but unique and mouth-watering pizza is a Naan flat bread on bottom, a layer of chicken curry, and  paneer cheese on top. Paneer is a plain tasting cheese that was first made in India, and it pairs perfectly with the spicy curry sauce. If you can't find paneer at the grocery store I included a link to a recipe at the end of step one. Only one word can describe this pizza recipe... Yummm!!!  Step 1: Ingredients. <PIC>
          If your in a hurry this recipe can be done with just 5 ingredients: chicken, oil, curry sauce from a jar, naan flat bread, and some paneer if you can find it. I got Paneer for $4 at Sprouts Farmers Market, along with the Naan bread on clearance for $2 and the Madras Curry sauce for $4. The chicken was also on sale :) it was the strip kind for stir fry which saved me a little cutting.              Simple Curry and Paneer Pizza Recipe:    About 1 1/2 lbs. chicken strips     1 Tablespoon vegetable or canola oil     1 Jar of premade curry of your choice; I used Madras Curry Indian Simmer Sauce by Maya Kaimal     2-4 pieces of Tandoori Naan      4 oz. Paneer cheese, or you can substitute with crumbled plain goat cheese     *Optional- fresh cilantro garnish or chop it up and spread over the pizzas    **Will also need a skillet, spatula or wooden spoon to stir chicken, cheese grater *optional, and a baking sheet for softer crust or right on the rack in the oven for crispier crust  Feeling adventurous and have the time to make Naan, Curry, and Paneer from scratch! Here are some links to recipes if your in such a mood... Naan- http://www.manjulaskitchen.com/2007/05/22/naan-bread/ Curry- http://allrecipes.com/recipe/indian-chicken-curry-murgh-kari/ Paneer- www.wikihow.com/Make-Paneer-(Indian-Cheese) Step 2: Cooking Chicken and Shredding It Up. <PIC> Cook the chicken strips at medium-high for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned. If your using a whole chicken breast it will need longer to cook the middle. Then after you have taken the chicken off the heat for a few minutes to cool, use a fork and knife to shred the chicken into small pieces. Step 3: Add Sauce and Spread on Naan. <PIC> Put the shredded chicken back in the skillet and add your curry sauce of choice. I simmered the mixture for about ten minutes to really cook the sauce into the chicken, but you could probably skip that and add the mix right onto the Naan because it will heat up in the oven. Then spread the curry sauce and chicken over two Naan flat breads, or you could make it work for 4 since I had leftover curry mix and used lots of chicken on my two.  Step 4: Add Paneer and Bake. <PIC> Shred paneer cheese or crumble chunks over the pizzas, and put them in the oven at 450o for about 8-10 minutes till the cheese melts.  Step 5: Enjoy (*^.^). <PIC> I can't express in words how delicious this curry pizza was... but I'm also a huge fan of curry so try it out for yourself and tell me what you think! Feel free to add ideas on other toppings in the comments or pics of your own Indian style pizza. The possibilities are endless (*>.<)


Question: What steps should I follow to cook and shred chicken for the Simple Curry Paneer Pizza?

To prepare chicken for the Simple Curry Paneer Pizza, cook the chicken strips at medium-high heat for about 20 minutes or until they are lightly browned. After cooking, remove the chicken from the heat, let it cool for a few minutes, and then use a fork and knife to shred it into small pieces.<PIC>


Question: What’s the process for preparing a delicious pumpkin curry that's easy to make at home?

Introduction: Easy Pumpkin Curry Recipe. <PIC> I never would have considered making a pumpkin curry to be "easy" until I tried it.  I really went into this dish expecting not to like it!  Pumpkin curry is one of my favorite take-out meals, so how could I possibly make the recipe at home be nearly as good as from the Thai place down the street?
Well, to my amazement, I LOVED this dish.  I altered it from the original recipe to suit my tastes (bye, bye cilantro!) and I suggest you do the same to suit yours!   Plus, with the amount of curry paste I used compared the amount I bought for ~$2, I'll be making this dish again, and again, and again . . .
This pumpkin curry pairs nicely with chicken, seafood, or tofu, and a variety of veggies.  I highly recommend you give it a try.  It may seem daunting at first, but it's definitely worth the effort!
I used a kabocha squash for this dish instead of a pumpkin.  Why? Because that's how the Thai place down the street does it!  I don't think I've ever seen actual pumpkin in a pumpkin curry in all my days.  So I took that little tidbit and ran with it. Step 1: Ingredients. <PIC> adapted from Thai Yellow Pumpkin and Seafood Curry by Nigella Lawson
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk (about 1 2/3 cups)
1 to 2-tablespoons yellow Thai curry paste (or red if you like it hot!)
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
1 lemongrass stalk, each cut into 1/3's and separated
3 Thai basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
3 cloves garlic, toasted
2 1/4 pounds kabocha squash, peeled and cut into large, bite-sized chunks
2 pounds chicken, diced (or substitute salmon and shrimp, or tofu)
Vegetables of your choice
1/2 to 1 lime, juiced or more to taste
More Thai basil, for garnish
You can substitute cilantro for the basil if that's your thing.  More authentic that way! Step 2: How to Peel a Squash. <PIC> I was amazed at how little information there is on the internet to help me figure out how to handle peeling a squash like this.   It's really hard to do it when the squash is still raw!  So this is what I did:
With a sharp knife, puncture some holes in the side of your squash.
Microwave on high for 6-8 minutes (mine needed 8).
Let cool in the microwave for 2 minutes.
Use a paring knife to peel away the skin of the squash.   Much easier!
Your squash is now partially cooked, meaning the rest of the dish will go even faster!
Seed and chop your squash into bite-sized pieces. Step 3: Procedure. <PIC> In a large saucepan or pot, stir together the coconut milk and curry paste until combined.   Add the stock, fish sauce, sugar, lemongrass, Thai basil, and turmeric.  Bring to a boil.
Add the chicken (or other protein) and simmer for 4-6 minutes.
Stir in pumpkin, garlic, and other vegetables.  Let simmer for another 4-6 minutes until everything is cooked through.
Squeeze half a lime over the curry and stir to incorporate.  Adjust seasonings to taste!  Step 4: Serve. <PIC> Serve over jasmine (my fave) or basmati rice.
Garnish with Thai basil, lime, and lemongrass stalks from the curry.
This recipe serves 4-6, and is great for leftovers.  I hope you give it a try!


Question: In the 'Easy Pumpkin Curry Recipe,' what steps do you follow to incorporate the chicken and vegetables into the curry?

In the 'Easy Pumpkin Curry Recipe,' you start by stirring together the coconut milk and curry paste, then add the stock, fish sauce, sugar, lemongrass, Thai basil, and turmeric.

Question: What is the process for creating delicious vodka-infused gummi bears that are perfect for a fun gathering?

Introduction: Drunken Gummies (Vodka-Infused Gummi Bears). <PIC> This Instructable will teach you how to create the most delicious alcoholic treat that will make you the life of any party. (My first instructable!)WARNING: Contains alcohol, so please only make this if you are of legal age in your area.'PLEASE USE RESPONSIBLY AND LEGALLY!!! Step 1: Prepare Materials and Get Them Soakin'!. <PIC> This Instructable takes a bit more than a week to complete, but the end result is certainly worth it! You will need:- 1 1/2 cups of vodka (can use more or less if desired)- 1 tub of gummi bear candies, plastic with lid (about 1kg. Tub found at Wal-mart)- 1 can of frozen juice concentrate, any flavour desired (I used fruit punch.)You can keep the juice frozen for now, as you will not need it for a few days.- First step is to open the lid of your gummi bears and pour in the vodka. The amount and brand is at your discretion, though I have found 1.5 cups of Smirnoff vodka to be the best. I have tried this with raspberry vodka as well, with pleasurable results. Basically, pour the vodka into the packed bears until the alcohol barely peeks over the top. - Give your newly introduced gummi-bears and vodka a stir, and replace the lid. Place the whole tub into the fridge. - Let this sit for five days, stirring a couple of times each day.  Step 2: I've Created a Monster!.... I've Created 500 Monsters!. <PIC> After five days, much of your vodka will have been soaked into the bears and they may have gone through a significant growth spurt, as shown in the photo. Now is the time for the juice to be added.The purpose of the juice is to mask the strong vodka taste that exists in these candies. - Place a thawed can of frozen juice into a mixing container, and add only HALF of the required water. - Pour one cup of partially diluted juice into the tub of bears, stirring very well.- Replace the lid and place back in the refrigerator. Step 3: Wait for It..... <PIC> Let the bears sit in their juice and whatever vodka is left, for FOUR more days. This is essential because otherwise they will have a hard middle or will taste too much like vodka. Resist the urge to taste test! Stir twice a day to prevent sticking. Step 4: Finally, Our Lovely Mutants!. <PIC> Your gummi bears are finally finished! If there is a lot of excess juice/vodka resting in the bottom, you may drain it or leave it in to be further absorbed by the bears as they rest.Remember to return to the fridge if they are not all eaten -- which rarely happens! Be ready for the rush and eat these carefully as they can be pretty potent!'PLEASE USE RESPONSIBLY AND LEGALLY!!!


Question: What should you do with the gummi bears after they have soaked in vodka for five days while making 'Drunken Gummies'?

After they have soaked in vodka for five days, you should add juice to the gummi bears to mask the strong vodka taste. Specifically, pour one cup of partially diluted juice into the tub of bears and stir very well.<PIC>


Question: What are the key steps to create a delicious 5-minute badam halwa using almond flour?

Introduction: Kajagoogoo! (Kaju Katli Style Marzipan). <PIC> If you followed my Instructable to make Napoleon Marching Bread, you've probably got a lot of left-over almond flour in the larder ... here's something you can do with it in 5 minutes to make a tasty sweet!This is similar to home-made Marzipan, but with an Indian flavor.  I was aiming for something like Kaju Katli (or as my wife calls it, Kajagoogoo), but I'm not sure if what came out could be better described as a Burfi or a Halwa.  You decide.  Anyway, whatever you call it, it's very tasty!You'll need almond flour, an egg, and one secret ingredient... "MTR Badam Feast".(Oh yes - and a food processor.)Put a cup and a half of Badam Feast and a cup and a half of Almond Flour in the food processor and grind it finer.  Then add an egg white and run the food processor on the low setting until it all collects into a ball of dough.  If the dough is sticky, break it into smaller pieces, add more almond flour, and run the processor again - you want a consistency like Play Doh(tm)...When you have a nice mouldable lump of dough, roll it into strips and cut the strips into coin-shaped pieces, then decorate with slivered almonds/cashews/pistachios if you have any, and serve.  Or just eat it all while standing there in the kitchen :-)Now if you're wondering what to do with all that left-over Badam Feast, try my recipe for 5-minute Shrikhand!


Question: How do I prepare the dough for '5-minute-badam-halwa' using almond flour and Badam Feast?

But they're totally optional.  Step 2: Make the Sugar Base. <PIC> Heat your pan on low heat. Put the butter in and wait till it's melted. Put all the marshmallows into the pan and keep stirring until all of them are melted and look like a sauce. This sugar base will function as an adhesive to the rice cereal; it's a very simple process, just make sure you don't cook them on high heat to burn them.  Step 3: Shape the Snack. <PIC> Put all the rice cereal into the pan as well and keep stirring until all the cereal form a whole piece. You can add nuts or other cereal (for example, corn cereals) during this step as well. Turn off the heat, and transfer the sticky whole thing into a lightly sprayed tray. Put the tray into the fridge and wait for about 4 hours.  Step 4: Cut and Enjoy!. <PIC> You can take the whole thing out pretty easily when it's dry and firm. Cut them into small pieces and store them air tight. Every body loves it -- crunchy and sweet, who wouldn't?Hope you'll like this simple and easy recipe!
