Steak and Scotch Eggs

Dinner on Saturday, 11 August 2018. 

If one were to view Gordon Ramsay or Jamie Oliver cooking steak, their recipe is so simple that your heart aches, every time you (I'm taking about me) screw it up.

So followed to the dot and it tasted ridiculously mouthwatering. Overcooked it a tad though.    

Below are the simple steps and its yummy results

Always get prime cuts. Next project will be Wagyu


Check out the marbling effect


Seasoned it with himalayan pink rock salt and fresh ground black pepper


Heated the olive oil and let the steak sizzle. Lumps of butter and garlic was added and dusted with fresh rosemarry 


Just dig in. Just a tad overcooked. Hence, I did not get the pink center. But taste hmmmm hmmm hmmm. Finished in one seating and longing for more  


Tried this recipe by Chef John @ Food Wishes. You can view his video on Youtube. He has such a fun and tenacious voice that you are just drawn into his videos. 

Chef John always advocates that since you are the own author of your recipes, explore and don't limit your contents. Your contents sometimes depends on what you have available at the moment. 

I tried his Scott egg recipe. Modified off course.

Started with ground beef


Mixed them with himalayan pink rock salt, fresh ground black paper, oregano, parsley, onions, garlic and paprika, for the added heat. Don't be stingy with the ingredients, the you may end up with plain tasting meat lacking that Oumph!  


Wrapped the meat around boiled egg, cubes fried potatoes and cheese


Made into balls


Dusted with all purpose flour, egg and bread scrumbs


The bread crumbs are crucial to make the outer layer crunchy and crispy


Deep Fried


Paper towel to absorb the excess oil


That's it. You're done

I'm not dwindle on him. More than enough has and readers can make up their own minds. 

But I think this picture illustrates the situation well.

Picture found on the net.

Come to think of it, this must be how the orang asli of Malaysia view us as well  


Explorer Outfitter @ Damen Mall

Bought this last Sunday, 12 August 2018. 

Was looking high and low of a perfect fitting pouch for my daughters Victorinox Swiss Army Classic SD Multi-Tool, 2-1/4" Translucent Pink Handles - 54005.

The multi tool when purchased was bare naked. Only came with a loop. And I did not have a lanyard befitting a 6 year old girl. Something funky.

Explorer @ Damen Mall just got their stock replenished. Check them out.

All your camping or outdoor gear equipment is conveniently located under one roof.

Cheers and have a blessed Sunday
