We’re all a bit upside down this week as Gill is packing for New York so I’m doing the intro! As if by magic, we have a second recipe from China China only this week we’ve thrown healthy out with the yoga mat and gone for full fat but so, so good it’s worth the extra calories!
Pete’s story about his Stornaway Black Pudding is great but as we’re all about the #perthLoveFest here we’re going to talk up Lindsay’s! I know Pete won’t mind as Beaton supplies China China with many other fantastic ingredients. Black Pudding is one of those all-time favourites that adds a distinctive taste to any dish; to create a fusion using this stalwart of the Scottish breakfast roll to noodles and chicken is nothing short of culinary genius!
Try it out at home – you won’t be disappointed! Leave your comments here and please do share this with your friends! You can also share your photographs and ideas with us. We'd love to see them. As always, tag them #PerthLoveFest and we'll scatter them around our own social media.
Add your oil to a hot wok and stir in the chicken breast strips.
Mix the curry powder with a little oil and add the pan
Thinly slice the onions and add to the pan with the beansprouts.
Place a slice of your black pudding into a hot oven for just a couple of minutes. You don't want to overcook!
Back to the Wok and add your fermented chilli oil, a tea spoon of the beaten egg the black pudding.
Making sure we don't have the heat to high, as the black pudding will dry out, we add our noodles and season
Enjoy
You can buy fermented chilli sauce in Provender Brown but if you’d like make it then this is a great recipe!
3 pounds fresh chili peppers (Scotch bonnets, Jalapenos, Serranos etc.)
4 to 6 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 tablespoons unrefined cane sugar, optional
2 teaspoons unrefined sea salt
vegetable starter culture dissolved in 1/4 cup water, or 1/4 cup fresh whey
Instructions
The story of the Stornoway Black pudding at China China goes like this..
The Macleod and Macleod of Stornoway Black pudding, was presented to me as a gift, from two former formidable adversaries, James King and Steve Mcgurk. Both gentlemen are from Dundee and are very loyal Dundee United supporters.
After returning from living and working in Hong Kong over 13 years ago. We became friends over the Internet and one day, they arrived at the Tak Away, with said puddings and asked 'Can you do something with these?'
the first thing I came up with was this noodle dish and fair to say when the dishes first came out, they caused a bit of a stir across local TV and press. We used the launch of the recipes with one of our Charity projects and with the support and sponsorship of Macleod & Macleod of Stornoway, we raised just under £2000 for the Red Cross emergency relief fund for the earthquake in Szechaun, China.
I have to mention that my good friend and very talented Chef, Graeme Pallister from 63 Tay Street advised me on how to use the pudding. We'd been experimenting all sorts of way with the 'Wok' but Graeme instructed me “No ..No..Not like that! Bake it my friend, bake it. That's when you get the magic” Which is what we do now!
You want to keep the black pudding moist, where it binds all the vegetable, meat and noodles together because like Graeme said... That's where the magic is!
