EASY AUTHENTIC MEXICAN RICE

This Mexican rice is cooked with onion powder, garlic powder, and tomato sauce for an easy side dish. Add green bell pepper, red bell pepper, or fresh tomato to the rice before simmering for extra flavor and color, according to your family's taste. Use chicken stock in place of water for even more savory flavor.

NIF'S LAST MINUTE RIBS OR PORK RIBLETS

I went to a surprise party tonight. I decided at the last minute to make ribs and they went over really well with everyone! These were very tender and had lots of flavour. The best part? They are incredibly easy to make and are the quickest ribs I have ever made. You can also use regular sized ribs - these were good for an appetizer at the party. Enjoy!

Steps:

  • In a large pot, bring enough water to cover the ribs to a gentle boil. Add salt, pepper, whole garlic cloves and bay leaves to the water. Meanwhile remove the silver skin from the back of the racks and cut rib racks in half. Add ribs to water. Boil for 30 minutes and strain.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cut rib racks into individual ribs and place in a baking pan lined with tin foil, for easier clean up. Sprinkle ribs with seasoning and toss. ***If you are using a salty seasoning, be careful not to use too much and don't use salt at the end. Cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place a wire rack on a cookie sheet. I lined the sheet with tin foil as well. Place ribs on the rack.
  • Broil ribs until they are medium brown. In my oven, they are done after 4 minutes under a high broil setting. If you have time, you can turn them over and broil the other side. Sprinkle with freshly ground sea salt and pepper to taste. Do not add the salt if your seasoning is salty.
  • Make sure you taste them! I added more of my dry rub seasoning at this point because they needed a bit more flavour.

3 lbs pork riblets, racks (pork ribs cut in half)
water
4 garlic cloves, peeled, whole
1 tablespoon peppercorn
1 tablespoon sea salt
3 bay leaves
favourite dry seasoning (I used Nif's Basic Dry BBQ Rub)
freshly ground salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a saucepan and sizzle the onion for 5 mins until just starting to soften. Add the garlic and cook for a minute more, then stir in the chipotle paste (if using) and the tomato purée and cook for a minute.
  • Add the tomatoes and simmer for a few minutes, then scatter the rice into the pan and stir, so it's coated in the tomato mix. Pour over the hot stock, season, give everything another stir and bring to the boil, then cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat down to the lowest possible setting.
  • Gently simmer for 15-20 mins until all the stock has been absorbed and the rice is cooked through. Leave the rice to sit for a few mins off the heat, then stir through the coriander and serve.
