This time a Chinese recipe: But be careful, it's really spicy! twisted

Quote:
Gong Bao Ji Ding (Kung Pao Chicken)

Marinating sauce:

1 tbsp. soy sauce

1 tbsp. rice wine or sherry

¾ to 1 tsp. grated fresh ginger root

1½ tbsp. cornstarch

1 lb. tender chicken breast meat, tendons removed, cut in ½-in. cubes

Seasoning sauce:

2 tbsp. soy sauce

1 tbsp. rice wine or sherry

1 tbsp. cider vinegar

1 tbsp. sugar

½ tsp. salt

1 tsp. sesame oil

2 tsp. cornstarch

Other ingredients:

½ c. corn oil

½ c. raw peanuts, skinned

6 to 8 dried red peppers

1 c. red or green bell peppers, chopped in 1-inch cubes, optional

2 to 3 green onions, chopped, with 1 tbsp. reserved for garnish

In a shallow dish, stir together 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice wine, ginger root and 1½ tablespoons cornstarch. Add chicken and marinate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the seasoning sauce (2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice wine, cider vinegar, sugar, salt, sesame oil and 2 teaspoons cornstarch; set aside.

Place all ingredients and the seasoning sauce within easy reach of the stove.

Put the corn oil in a wok or heavy skillet and heat until almost smoking. Stir-fry peanuts until golden brown, stirring constantly so they don't burn. Remove with slotted spoon to let the oil drain back, and set aside.

Add the dried red peppers to the wok. They will turn black quickly. Next add the chicken and stir-fry over high heat until all the pinkness is gone. Lift chicken and dried peppers out with a slotted spoon, draining oil back to the wok, and set aside.

Place bell peppers in the wok and stir-fry about 1 minute. Return the chicken and dry peppers to the wok, and add the seasoning sauce. Stir until thickened, then add the 2 to 3 chopped 3 green onions. Remove and discard the dried peppers. Remove the chicken and vegetables with a slotted spoon, place on a serving platter and garnish with peanuts and reserved green onions.

Today I was watching TV and there were some mexican people who came to Argentina to taste some "Dulce de Leche" ninja
So, I tought it'd be a nice idea to post the recipe here, so here it is:


Dulce De Leche: (Sweet Milk Sauce)

Although time-consuming, this makes a wonderful topping for vanilla ice cream, custards, cakes and even fruit.

Ingredients:
5 cups whole milk
1 and 1/2 cups sugar
1 vanilla bean, split
1 teaspoon baking soda


1. Place the milk in a large, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and allow skin to form on top. Do not stir. The skin will thicken and puff up. Reduce heat to medium and remove the skin. Increase heat to medium-high and repeat the process 3 times.
2. Add the sugar and vanilla bean, and stir until the sugar has melted, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in the baking soda. Simmer milk, stirring often, but taking care not to break the film of cooked milk forming, on the inside of the pan. Simmer, skimming the foam (not skin) until reduced by half, about 1 hour.
3. Reduce the heat to very low and simmer for another 3 and 1/2 hours, stirring and skimming foam occasionally. The mixture will brown as it cooks.
4. Strain the completely cooked mixture through a sieve into a bowl, cover and refrigerate.

Makes about 1 1/2 cups sauce.


Hope you like it blaugh

Since it is almost time for Christmas again, this time a recipe for a German Christmas treat: Zimtsterne! I really like them a lot. If you don't like cinnamon, you probably won't like them. But I think they really look cute, too!

Quote:
Zimtsterne (Cinnamon stars)

Ingredients for approximately 50 cookies (depending on the size of a single cookie):

3 fresh white of egg (about 100 g (3.5 ounces))
1 pinch of salt
250 g (9 ounces) confectioner's sugar
1½ tablespoons of cinnamon
½ tablespoon of kirsch or lemon juice
350 g (12 ounces) grind almonds

Preparation:

Stir white of egg and salt in a bowl until it is real stiff.
Add confectioner's sugar, stir until ingredients are evenly distributed. Put 1 dl (0.4 cups) aside for the frosting.
Add cinnamon, kirsch (or lemon juice) and almonds, knead to a soft dough.
Roll out dough on a flat surface (it may be slightly covered with sugar), approximately 7 mm (0.3 inches) thick. Put out stars or other shapes and put them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
Let them rest for about 5 to 6 hours or over night in a dry place.
Carefully sweep the cookies with the frosting set aside in step 2.
Bake for about 3 to 5 minutes in the center of the pre-heated oven at 250 °C (480 °F).
Let cool completely before serving.

I like a lot of food from a lot of countries, but I prefer the typical Belgian food like fries, chocolate, wafels, beer,...

BTW: French food is highly overrated in my opinion at least
