Description

GOOD TO HAVE ON HAND

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • small bowl
  • 2 pans (one of them ovenproof)

 

Ingredients

Units Scale
CHICKEN
  • 400 grams chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp clarified butter
SOUR CREAM & ONION SAUCE
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 3 big onions
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 200 milliliters heavy cream
  • 200 milliliters vegetable broth
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried marjoram
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • salt & pepper to taste
BEURRE MANIÉ
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 tsp all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Peel, halve and cut the onions into thin semicircles.
  2. Peel and finely chop or press the garlic.
  3. Mix 1 teaspoon of butter and 1 teaspoon of flour in a small bowl until creamy. This is the beurre manié that you will use to bind the sauce later.
  4. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F)
  5. In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and sauté the onions until they have gained a bit of color, for about 15 minutes. Then add the garlic. Stir everything well and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  6. Now add the vegetable broth and deglaze the pan. Let everything simmer for about 5 minutes on medium heat. Now add the heavy cream. Stir everything well. Add the beurre manié, stir well and bring to a boil until the sauce has thickened. Now add salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, and marjoram, stir to combine, let it come to a boil briefly, and set aside.
  7. In an ovenproof skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of clarified butter and sear the chicken breasts on both sides. Do not fully cook the meat, as it will finish cooking in the oven and then become really tender.
  8. Now spread the entire onion & cream sauce over and between the chicken in the skillet. Smooth out and bake in the oven uncovered for about 30 minutes until done.
  9. Remove the skillet from the oven and enjoy the chicken and sour cream caramelized onions with rice, pasta, potatoes, mashed potatoes, or just simply bread.

Description

GOOD TO HAVE ON HAND

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • large pot with lid
  • large bowl (or a medium-sized pot)
  • fine sieve (or a kitchen towel)

 

Ingredients

Units Scale
VEGETABLES & BEEF
  • 2 kilograms beef bones
  • 1 tsp clarified butter
  • 400 grams carrots
  • 2 onions
  • 200 grams celery root
  • 100 grams leek
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 lemon
HERBS & SPICES
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 stem thyme
  • 1 large bunch of parsley
  • 5 cloves
  • 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 22 grams salt (approx. 2 1/2 tsp)

Instructions

  1. Wash the beef bones well and roast in the oven at 250°C (480°F) for approx. 30 minutes.
  2. Wash the carrots, celery and leek and cut everything into large pieces.
  3. Wash the lemon and herbs too. Put the herbs aside.
  4. Halve the onions and lemon.
  5. Heat 1 tsp clarified butter in a large pot and fry onions, lemon, carrots, celery, leek and garlic cloves until they leave a residue.
  6. Remove the bones from the oven and place on top of the vegetables. Fill up with 2.5-3 liters of cold water.
  7. Now add 2 dried bay leaves, 5 allspice seeds, 5 cloves, 1 teaspoon of black peppercorns, 1/2 teaspoon of coriander seeds and 1 bunch of parsley.
  8. Put the lid on and bring to the boil over a high heat. As soon as it boils, turn the heat down to the lowest setting and leave the liquid to simmer in the pot with the lid on for 6 hours.
  9. After 6 hours, remove the pot from the heat and leave to cool briefly. Remove the beef bones and any other coarse pieces of vegetables, as well as the herbs and spices.
  10. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve into a medium-sized pan. Allow the broth to cool completely and then skim off any fat floating on top. I put my pot in the fridge overnight. If there is still too much fat floating on top, the broth can be strained again through kitchen towels or a fine kitchen towel. The fat residue will then stick to it. Season the broth with salt. I season with 6-8g (approx. 1 teaspoon) per liter, depending on taste.
  11. The broth can now be processed directly or filled into jars.

GOOD TO HAVE ON HAND

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • large pan
  • baking dish

 

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 tortillas
  • 200 grams grated cheese (I used mozzarella & cheddar)
  • 400 grams minced beef
  • 125 milliliters beef broth
  • 400 grams canned tomatoes
  • 1 white onion
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp oilve oil
  • 1/8 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp cilantro
  • fresh cilantro
  • 200 grams creme fraiche
  • 1 bowl Pico de Gallo
  • 1 bowl Guacamole

Instructions

  1. Wash the cilantro, pluck the leaves from the stalks and chop finely.
  2. Cut the onion into small pieces.
  3. Finely dice the jalapeno.
  4. Fry the tortillas in the pan over a medium heat on both sides so that they are still pliable and can be rolled. Set the tortillas aside with paper towels between each layer.
  5. For the enchilada sauce, sauté the onions and jalapeno in a large pan over a medium heat until the onions are soft and slightly translucent. Next, add the crushed garlic, stir briefly and warm through.
  6. Now increase the heat and add the minced beef to the pan and fry until the meat has turned crispy dark brown.
  7. Now pour the beef stock and chopped tomatoes into the pan and stir everything together. Now add the spices: chili flakes, cumin, salt and pepper. Allow everything to reduce over medium heat for 10-15 minutes until the sauce has a bit thickened. As soon as the sauce has thickened, stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped coriander. Stir and set a side.
  8. In the meantime, you can prepare the guacamole and the pico de gallo.
  9. Preheat the oven to 250°C (480°F) and prepare a baking dish (my used measurements were 20x26cm (8×10 inch)) by pouring 3-4 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce onto the bottom of the baking dish and spread it out.
  10. Now place 2-3 tbsp of the enchilada sauce in the middle of each tortilla, sprinkle 2 tbsp of grated cheese over the top and then roll up the tortilla. Either do it the traditional way from the bottom to the top or fold both sides in at first and then roll from the bottom to the top.
  11. Now place the tortilla rolls in the baking dish on top of the sauce, spread the rest of the sauce on the tortillas and finish with the remaining cheese.
  12. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for approx. 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is crispy golden brown in places.
  13. Take the baking dish out of the oven, divide the enchiladas between four plates and top with crème fraîche, pico de gallo, guacamole and fresh coriander.
