Everyone getting through this Pandemic ok? We hope so! These bring back a lot of childhood memories from my favourite Chinese food restaurant at House of Lam in New Brunswick. We love these, we wish pork ribs weren’t so expensive but they are. They are a treat in our family, we don’t make them often! Package of pork spareribs we like to use the bite size packages but you can use the full rack of ribs as well. Cut and separate all ribs. We boil them with some salt for about 20 minutes. 1 large onion chopped, 1inch pieces 1 green or red pepper chopped, 1inch pieces Lots of garlic Lots of ginger 2-3TBSP soya sauce 1-2TBSP cane sugar Lime juice, squeezed from half a lime 4-6 diced Thai Chilis 1TBSP vegetable oil 1-2 sliced jalapenos Garnish with cut green onions, optionalPrep all your veggies. We just cut the garlic in half and we leave the ginger pretty large, we love ginger!
We use a large cast iron wok to cook these, but you can use any oven safe frying pan as well. Get your wok nice and hot, add the oil and spareribs. Stirfry for a minute. Then add your soya sauce, sugar, garlic and ginger. Stirfry 5 to 7 minutes stirring frequently. Add in your onions and half your chilis, Stirfry a another minute. Now I put the wok in oven under the broiler for a few minutes stirring the spareribs a couple times, leaving them til they get a nice color. Now I return them to stove and add in the peppers, I Stirfry additional 2-3minutes.
Pour them out on your desired platter and dig in!! We served these with some papaya salad. Lucky is ready hehehe
Do you want to make some very tasty ham and cheese Perogies? Try this wonderful and easy recipe today! Just follow the step by step guide below to make this great recipe today.
Ingredients: 4CUPS flour 1TSP salt 1CUP warm water 2 eggs 4TBSP oil Mix the flour and salt in a bowl. Beat the eggs with water & oil. Then add to flour mixture. Mix to combine. Knead til smooth. Cover, let rest for an hour. Makes roughly 60 perogies depending on the side.
The kids love helping out in the kitchen. I love when they want to learn new skills. Our filling ingredients: 5CUPS mashed potatoes 3CUPS cheddar 2CUPS finely chopped ham (can use bacon) Salt, pepper 1/2CUP dehydrated minced onions All mixed together very well in a big bowl. Love this perogie maker we purchased it brand new at value village for 2.99$.
I divide the dough into four pieces. Roll out each piece 1/8inch thickness. I use a perogie maker but you can just cut out circles with a cookie cutter or glass. Put about 1 good TBSP filling in each perogie. Use the perogie maker to roll another layer of dough over top. This maker works pretty awesome. If your just using cookie cutter flip over top and pinch all around to close up.
Place in boiling water for just a couple minutes. When they float to the top they are done. You can eat them just like this, or go the next level and fry them up like we do. You can fry them with butter, or oil or non stick spray whatever you prefer. When we make these we freeze lots. I lay out a single layer on a silicone sheet on a cookie pan and place in freezer. Takes about 30 minutes or so. Then I throw them in a freezer bag. They do not stick to each other this way. I do not precook the ones I freeze.
The Finished Perogies After Being Fried
We like sour cream and some green onions with ours. Everyone is different, the toppings are endless what you can have. What do you like on your perogies?
Lucky saids oh ya, potato, cheese, ham, & sour cream hand it on over lady hehehe
Love this! Makes pretty nice size ones, they all come out perfect.
Working with some left over Pork Roast last couple days. With a Pork Barley and now a Pork Ramen. Had surgery this past week, taking it easy with some soups. We love homemade soups!

Noodles: 1-2 packages of ramen noodles
4 hard boiled eggs Seawood
Bring the oil, onions, ginger, garlic, carrots, all the sauces, broths, gravy, and vinegar to a boil.
Boil for just a couple minutes then add in the rest of stuff. Reserving some green onions to sprinkle ontop. Hard boiled eggs & seawood are also reserved for the top too. Light boil about 15-20minutes. While that’s cooking you can work on your noodles.
Boil your noodles are per your instructions on pack. They don’t take long. I like to rinse mine under water once cooked it washes away more starch.I put about 3/4CUP noodles in each bowl. Then top with a couple big spoon fulls of soup.
Top with som sea weed, boiled eggs, green onions and sprinkle on sesame seeds.
This was pretty delicious. Boneless turkey breast. I removed the skin and loaded top of breast with bread stuffing then put the skin back on. I used cooking thread and tied the skin tightly around stuffing and turkey breast. I placed it in a Dutch oven on a bunch of root vegs. Potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, dried cranberries, salt, pepper, thyme, sage, rosemary, 1CUP waterBake 350F covered for 1 and a half. Remove everything from pan and make a gravy with the drippings on the bottom.
2CUPS white beans soaked 1 onion diced 2 carrots diced 2 celery stalks diced 2-5cloves garlic minced (we used 5) 3 CUPS Chicken stock/bouillon 3CUPS water 2TBSP Italian spice 1TBSP parsley Couple bay leaves Salt/pepper 1 Ham hockThrow everything in a Dutch oven and or large pot. Bring up to a boil and light boil for an hour. Adding more water if needed.
Remove the ham hock, I give it a rinse under cold water to cool it down quicker. Separate all the meat from the bone and chop up roughly.
Put all your ham hock back in, stir, remove bay leaves and serve.We don’t eat enough beans in this house, it was enjoyed by everyone. I love making homemade soups!I have the PC Choice brand but this is about the same.
