Plum Pork Kabobs With Mushrooms Onions Over Scallion Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a self-sealing plastic bag combine cubed pork, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger and Dijon-style mustard (or Chinese Five Spice); seal bag and refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours.
• Prepare medium-hot fire with charcoal or preheat gas to medium high.
• Remove pork from marinade, and discard marinade. Thread pork, sweet peppers, mushrooms, and zucchini alternately onto 8 skewers. Grill kabobs directly over fire, turning to brown evenly, for 5 minutes. Brush kabobs with the melted jelly. Continue to grill for 3 to 10 minutes more or until tender. Let rest 3 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; saute until golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add onions and peppers to the skillet and saute until browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in pork, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and garlic. Add vinegar, garam masala, curry, salt, black pepper, cumin, mustard, basil, and oregano. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add mushrooms and simmer for 10 minutes more. Stir water and cornstarch together in a small bowl and pour into the skillet. Cook and stir until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, cumin and coriander; add pork. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight. , Alternate the pork, onions, tomatoes and peppers on eight metal or soaked wooden skewers. Grill, covered, over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes or until meat juices run clear.

Steps:

• Pork, Mushrooms and Onions -- Bring to room temp, or let it rest to take the chill off and cut into 1 1/2" cubes. Clean the mushrooms and peel the onions. You can leave them whole if small enough or you can cut them in half - either way. Toss into a large bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper and coat well.
• Skewer -- Don't forget to soak your bamboo skewers in water for about 20-30 minutes so they do not burn, or you can also use metal skewers. I use 3-4 pieces of pork; 2-3 mushrooms and a couple of onions per skewer. Should make around 8-12 skewers, depending on the size of the skewer you are using.
• Sauce -- In a small bowl, microwave the sesame oil and plum sauce just for a few seconds to warm up which makes it easier to brush on.
• Rice -- Just cook in chicken broth if possible according to package directions, water will work just fine, but broth adds a little more flavor. Once done, toss in the sesame oil, scallions and cilantro.
• Grill -- Outside or inside, medium high heat, grill the skewers. I continually brush on some of the sauce as I grill the kabobs to make sure they are covered well. They take around 10-15 minutes until done, but the pork is still pink.
• Serve -- Serve 1-2 skewers per person over the rice and enjoy! It is a very simple, quick dinner with great flavor.

Steps:

• Cut the pork into big pieces about the length of your thumb and twice as wide. Put into a bowl or food bag, and add the wine, soy sauces, half the ginger, half the garlic and half the chilli. Marinate for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3, then heat the oil in a large casserole. Tip in half the spring onions, remaining ginger and garlic, the star anise, five-spice powder and cinnamon. Fry gently until fragrant and soft. Stir in the sugar, turn up the heat, then lift the pork from the marinade and turn in the oniony mix for about 3 mins until the meat is just sealed but not browned. Tip in the marinade, tomato purée and stock, give it a stir, cover, then braise in the oven for 2 hrs.
• After the first hr is up, add the plums to the pan. Take the lid off and carry on the cooking, uncovered. The meat should be completely tender, turning golden brown where it breaks the surface of the sauce. Spoon off any excess fat from the surface, then scoop the meat and plums carefully from the pan with a slotted spoon. Turn up the heat and boil the sauce for 5-10 mins until reduced and slightly syrupy. Return everything to the pan, gently warm through, then scatter the rest of the spring onions over the top to serve.
