A very tasty dish with generous amount of fantastic flavors! 🍗🍜🧀

Homestyle Chicken Noodle Casserole

Ingredients
- 2 large carrots, peeled and chopped fine
- 4 T. flour
- 2 t. minced fresh thyme
- 1 T. lemon juice
- 3 c. low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 onion, chopped fine
- 1 1/2 c. frozen peas
- 3/4 t. pepper
- 1 1/2 t. salt
- 8 oz. (about 2 cups) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast
- 4 T. unsalted butter
- 12 oz. pkg of wide egg noodles

Preparation

Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot.

Add 1 T. salt and the egg noodles.

Cook just shy of al dente, about 4 minutes.

Drain the noodles, rinse them under cold water until cool to the touch.

Set aside until ready to assemble the casserole.

In a large sauté pan, (or you can use a skillet or even a Dutch oven) melt 2 T. butter over medium heat.

Add the onion and carrots, cook, stirring frequently until the onion is softened, 5-7 minutes.

Add the sauteed veggies to a bowl, set aside.

Add the remaining 2 T. butter to the now empty skillet.

When the butter is melted add the flour to the pan and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute.

Slowly add the half n half and chicken broth (very important to add a little at a time, whisking thoroughly as you go, to keep the sauce from being lumpy).

Bring sauce to a simmer, stirring constantly, stir in the thyme, salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes, stirring often.

Add the sauteed vegetables and chicken breast to the sauce, cover the pan and simmer until the chicken is cooked through 10-15 minutes.

Remove the sauce from the heat and place the chicken on a plate to cool.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

To the sauce add the lemon juice and half the cheese.

Stir to melt the cheese and season to taste if needed.

When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred into bite-sized pieces.

Combine the shredded chicken, noodles, sauce and frozen peas.

Add to a 13x9-inch casserole dish.

Top with the remaining cheese.

Bake the casserole until the top is slightly browned and the cheese is bubbling, 15-20 minutes.

Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

A great combination of hearty and healthy flavors! 🧈🍫🥣

Caramel Ginger Soufflé With Wolfberry White Chocolate Sauce

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 piece (2-inch long) ginger root, bruised
- 3 tablespoons minced crystallized ginger
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 1/3 cups milk
- 4 eggs, separated
- 8 ounces sweetened white chocolate
- 2 tablespoons wolfberries or goji berries
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar

Preparation

First make the caramel ginger syrup. Melt the sugar in a medium (1.5 quart) saucepan over medium heat. Stir the sugar constantly until the color turns golden brown.

Add the water and dissolve the sugar completely.

Add the fresh ginger root. Turn the heat down to simmer and cook for about 15 minutes or until the liquid is cooked down to half the original amount.

Drain the syrup and set aside to cool.

Clean the saucepan then melt the butter in it.

Put the flour into the butter and stir until well blended. Alternately pour the milk and the caramel ginger syrup into the flour and butter mixture, or roux, a little bit at a time to create a thick paste.

Remove from the heat and add the minced crystallized ginger and egg yolks.

Mix well and set aside.

Prepare the custard up to this stage and set aside until ready to serve.

Prepare the sauce by first simmering the wolfberries in the milk and sugar for about five minutes. Melt the white chocolate in the wolfberries milk while stirring constantly.

When the chocolate is completely melted pour the sauce into a sauce bowl and set aside.

About half an hour before ready to serve the soufflé, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Whisk the egg white until it forms a firm peak. Fold about 1/4 cup of the egg white into the custard until well blended. Then fold the custard a little at a time back into the egg white.

Grease six 3 1/2-inch ramekins with butter and coat with sugar.

Fill the ramekins with the batter and place them on a baking sheet.

Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes and immediately serve the soufflé with the wolfberries white chocolate sauce.

Absolutely and unbelievably moist and chocolatey! 🍫🍰☕

Chocolate Cake With Coffee Marscarpone Icing

Ingredients
- 1.5 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 1/4 stick of butter
- 350 g dark chocolate
- 4 eggs
- 2 tbsp instant coffee
- 200g mascarpone cheese
- 60 ml olive oil
- 200 g plain flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla paste
- 1 tbsp boiling water
- 2 tbsp yogurt

Preparation

Take everything out of the fridge so that all the ingredients can come to room temperature.

Preheat the oven to 180C and line and butter a 24cm springform pan.

Melt 350g of the chocolate using either a double boiler over water, or by heating it in a microwave in 30 second intervals.

Brush the melted chocolate onto the waxy side of the leaves, and leave to cool in a fridge or freezer until the chocolate sets. You can peel off the real leaves afterwards, leaving just their chocolate clones.

Mix the flour, sugar, salt and bicarbonate soda in a large bowl and beat in the soft butter until you have a combined and creamy mixture.

Now whisk together the yogurt, eggs, vanilla paste and olive oil and mix together with the dry ingredients.

Mix in the chocolate too.

Pour this batter into the pan and bake for 40 minutes until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before turning out.

Let the cake cool for at least another 30 minutes so the icing doesn't melt.

To make the icing, dissolve the coffee in the boiling water, then beat the coffee syrup, sugar and Mascarpone together until stiff peaks form.

Spread the icing over the top of the cooled cake and top with the chocolate leaves.

Full of yumminess and freshness, wow! 🦪🧅🐖

Pan-fried Stuffed Tofu With Oyster Sauce

Ingredients

Easy and convenient food, so delicious! 🥚🍞🌭

The Scotch Egg

Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 eggs (beaten and used for the coating)
- 16 oz pork sausage
- 2 cup panko breadcrumbs (or regular bread crumbs)
- 4 cups vegetable oil for frying

Preparation

Hard boil the eggs.

To get perfectly hard boiled eggs, once the water is boiling, add eggs and set the timer for 9 1/2 minutes.

As soon as the timer goes off, remove the eggs and put them in a bath of cold water.

Once the eggs are cooked and shells are removed, set up an assembly line with the beaten eggs, sausage meat and bread crumbs.

Now you'll want to take about a 1/4 cup of the ground sausage, form a disk and begin to shape it around the hardboiled egg.

Take the sausage-covered egg and dip it in the beaten egg.

Roll the sausage-covered egg in the bread crumbs until it is generously coated.

The final step is to fry those eggs up.

Once all of the eggs are coated in the bread crumbs, heat up the oil over medium high heat.

You'll know the oil is at the right temperature when you drop a few bread crumbs in the pot and it begins to sizzle.

Take care not to add the eggs to the oil too early - if the oil isn't hot enough it will just saturate the bread crumbs and it won't be as tasty.

Drop two eggs at a time in the hot oil and cook them until very golden brown, about 6-7 minutes.

Make sure to give the eggs enough time in the oil so the sausage fully cooks.

Remove the fried eggs from the oil and place on a plate with paper towels to remove the excess oil.

Cut the eggs in half or quarters and serve while hot.
