Walking Taco Casserole

by

Walking Taco Casserole

Have you ever tried walking tacos or Frito pie? My Texan friend asked me if I wanted to try a pop-up in Brooklyn, where we both resided, a few summers ago. I had never tried or heard of Frito pie growing up in the Northeast.

INGREDIENTS

  1. Two tsp neutral oil (like canola oil)
  2. One sliced white onion
  3. 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  4. One pound of ground beef, 80/20
  5. Three tablespoons of taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
  6. One thinly diced scallion
  7. One fifteen-oz can of pinto beans
  8. One 10-oz can RO*TEL Original Green Chilies and Diced Tomatoes
  9. One cup of chunky, thick salsa
  10. To taste, add salt and black pepper to 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese, or more if necessary.
  11. One nine-ounce bag Corn chips from Fritos

In order to serve (optional)

  1. sour cream
  2. Jalapenos in pickles
  3. chopped scallions
  4. shredded green leafy vegetables

INSTRUCTIONS

Add the aromatics and sauté.

  • Heat the oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic for 6 to 8 minutes, or until they are transparent and tender.

Cook the meat.

  • Using a wooden spoon, add the beef and break it up into bite-sized pieces. Saute until beautifully browned, 6 to 8 minutes.

Note:

  • Season the meat with a healthy pinch of salt if your taco seasoning does not include additional salt.
  • Set the oven temperature to 350°F while the meat is cooking.

Reduce the heat in the casserole:

  • After lowering the heat to medium-low, mix in the pinto beans, onions, and taco seasoning. Saute until thoroughly combined, one to two minutes.
  • After adding the salsa and Rotel, simmer the mixture for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the meat is properly seasoned and the flavors have blended. Add more salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.

Top with toppings:

  • Quickly move mixture to a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish, spreading evenly. Add two cups of Fritos chips and cheddar cheese on top, or more if you’d like.
  • Bake until the cheese is nicely melted, about 10 minutes.

Assist

  • Add optional dollops of sour cream, pickled jalapenos, scallions, and shredded lettuce to the top of the casserole dish. Distribute among serving dishes and savor!

KFC ORIGINAL SECRET CHICKEN RECIPE

by

KFC ORIGINAL SECRET CHICKEN RECIPE

A significant portion of my youth was spent eating KFC Original Recipe Chicken. When I was a child, my aunt used to take me home from school, stopping at the KFC that was located about half a street away. We used to share a strawberry parfait and chicken that they used to sell. I can still eat this meal memory whenever I choose, unlike the Pioneer Chicken my mom used to buy.

INGREDIENTS

  1. whole chicken, cut into pieces
  2. 3 beaten eggs
  3. 4 tablespoons oil

For the coating

  1. 2 cups flour
  2. 4 teaspoons paprika
  3. 1 teaspoons salt
  4. 1 teaspoon pepper
  5. 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning (or chicken stock powder)
  6. 1 teaspoon oregano
  7. 1 teaspoon tarragon
  8. 1 teaspoon parsley
  9. 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  10. 1 teaspoon chives
  11. 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  12. 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  13. 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
  14. Half a teaspoon of powdered onion
  15. One-half tsp celery salt

GUIDELINES

  •  After sifting the flour, combine all of the coating ingredients, then use a mortar and pestle to ground them all finely before placing them in a fresh plastic bag. Coat every piece of chicken with the flour mixture in the bag after coating it with the beaten egg. Make sure all of the flour is covering each piece.
  • Warm up the skillet’s oil. Gradually brown the chicken, uncovered, in the oil. After the chicken is browned, cover the skillet and continue to sauté it over very low heat until it is cooked through. Lay out on paper towels to remove any surplus.

by

AIR FRYER CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

Cubed steak is used to make Air Fryer Chicken Fried Steak, which is then covered in the tastiest, crunchy, crispy coating. No need for oil!

Prepared in ten minutes

Cooking Time: 20 minutes

Duration: thirty minutes

There are four servings.

INGREDIENTS:

4 cubed steaks, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tsp each of onion and garlic powder, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp each of black pepper, ½ cup buttermilk, 1 large egg, and 1 Tablespoon (optional) of hot sauce

White pepper gravy package (to be served,

GUIDELINES

  • Set the air fryer’s temperature to 400F.
  • Mix the paprika, onion, garlic, and pepper powders, salt, and pepper in a shallow basin.
  • Whisk together the egg, buttermilk, and spicy sauce (if using) in a different shallow bowl.
  • Make careful to fully coat and shake off any excess flour by dipping each steak slice in the flour mixture, dredging it in the buttermilk mixture, and then dipping it back into the flour mixture.
  • After placing the steaks in the air fryer basket in a single layer, liberally mist them with olive oil spray. After the coating turns golden brown, air fried for a further 8 to 10 minutes, flip, and cook for a further 6 to 8 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F. (As some air fryers cook food faster than others, make sure to check your steaks at the five-minute mark.)
  • Take out of the air fryer and, if needed, repeat with the remaining steaks. Serve right away with a white pepper gravy on top.

RECIPE NOTES

  • Don’t forget to let the Air Fryer heat up. Ensuring that the steaks cook through and the crust crisps up is crucial.
  • Give the steaks an extra eight to ten minutes to set before air-frying if the breading is coming off.

Southern Brisket Grilled Cheese

by

Southern Brisket Grilled Cheese

Barbecue and grilled cheese sandwiches are two of my favorite foods ever. The resulting recipe mixes the two to create a mouthwateringly excellent feast. There’s no better way to use up leftover brisket than in this crunchy, cheesy, meaty, melt-in-your-mouth sandwich, I promise.

To season the meat, you can use any kind of barbecue sauce. I want ones that are spicy, sweet, and possibly infused with bourbon. You can also use a milder or tangier sauce if that’s your preference. Using wonderful leftover brisket, high-quality cheese, and fluffy white bread are essential ingredients. Now is the perfect time to use your cast iron pan or griddle, if you have one.

Ingredients

  1. 8–10 ounces of cooked, shredded brisket
  2. Half a cup of barbecue sauce
  3. Eight pieces of white bread
  4. 1/4 cup room temperature unsalted butter
  5. Two cups of cheddar cheese, shredded

Guidelines

1. Combine the barbecue sauce and beef in a medium-sized bowl.

2. Spread butter on one side of each of the two pieces of bread and place, butter side down, in a large skillet over medium heat.

3. Put a small amount of cheddar cheese on top of each piece.

4.Next, top each slice of bread with a layer of brisket.

5. Place a second handful of cheese and the remaining buttered side-up bread slices on top. Close the skillet’s lid.

6. Cook the bread for 4 minutes on each side, or until the cheese has melted and the bread is golden brown.

7. Prepare the final two sandwiches in the same manner.

8. Cut each sandwich in half, then present it warm.

Slow Roasted Lamb Shoulder

by

Slow Roasted Lamb Shoulder

This is a simple, traditional roast lamb dish that yields meat so delicate that it can be torn apart with two forks instead of a carving knife.

Of course Principal Dish

 British Cuisine: Lamb Shoulder Preparation Time: 10 minutes

 4 hours for cooking

 Ten minutes of rest

 Total Duration Ten minutes and four hours

 Servings Six portions

Ingredients:

  1. 18–24 sprigs entire rosemary leaves
  2. One or two bulbs of garlic, split into cloves and skinned
  3. Three tablespoons of olive oil
  4. 1.5 to 2 kg of lamb shoulder, salted and ground just before using

Guidelines

  • Set an oven rack in the center position and preheat to the highest settings
  • Take a large roasting tin and put half the rosemary and half the garlic bulbs in it. Drizzle with 1 tbsp of the olive oil then, using your hands mix everything together so the herbs and garlic are coated in oil.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut a criss-cross pattern on the top, fatty side, of the lamb shoulder without cutting down into the meat.
  • Put the lamb on top of the rosemary and garlic already in the tin.
  • Season the lamb with salt and pepper then drizzle another tablespoon of olive oil over it. Using your fingers, rub the seasoning and oil into the lamb.
  • Strew the remaining rosemary and garlic over the lamb and drizzle with the final tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Tightly cover the roasting tin with foil and reduce the oven temperature to 160C Fan / 350F / Gas 4.

  • When the lamb pulls easily from the joint and comes away cleanly without any meat stuck to it, it is ready.
  • Raising the oven temperature and returning the lamb, uncovered, until cooked to your preference will allow you to brown the outside of the meat a bit more (5-10 minutes).
  • After the meat is done, move it to a warm plate, cover it, and let it rest for at least ten minutes.
  • Shred the meat with two forks to serve.

Optional accompaniments

  1. Remove some of the fat released from the lamb while it’s cooking and use it to make crispy roast potatoes.

Prepare a gravy:

  •  Throw away the rosemary and place the garlic cloves aside while the lamb is resting.
  • Remove the majority of the fat and reserve for later usage, like roast potatoes.
  • mix in 1 tablespoon flour to the liquids and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • To create a smooth sauce, progressively add more lamb or chicken stock while stirring continuously. After 5 to 10 minutes, check the seasoning.
  • Squeeze the soft garlic clove contents into the sauce.liked and/or add redcurrant jelly, mint cut fine, or both.

Crispy Golden Air Fryer Latkes

by
Crispy Golden Air Fryer Latkes

Making hand-held potato pancakes from shredded potatoes is simple with air fryer latkes. A favourite crispy-crunch side dish for Hannukah. These are so delicious, you’ll want to eat them for every meal of the year.

Components:

  1. Shredded one medium russet potato
  2. Shredded four large Yukon potatoes
  3. one chopped onion
  4. three eggs
  5. 1/4 cup Matzo meal or all-purpose flour
  6. One tsp each of salt and garlic powder
  7. 1/4 tsp pepper
  8. olive oil spray

Guidelines

  1. Potatoes with the peel on should be grated or processed in a food processor. Transfer to several paper towels and fold. To absorb as much water as possible, softly press. Next, transfer to a bowl.
  2. For five minutes, preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit. Add all of the other ingredients to the bowl with the shredded potatoes and toss to coat.
  3. To create one potato pancake, use three generous tablespoons. Gently squeeze together in your palms. Coat the air fryer basket with olive oil spray before placing the patties inside, making sure they don’t overlap. Gently mist the tops with olive oil spray.
  4. Shut basket and cook for approximately 15 minutes, turning each piece over halfway through (spray tops one more after flipping).
  5. Once they reach your desired level of browning, remove and serve with sour cream.

Common Questions:

Are Trader Joe’s latkes air fryable?
Without a doubt! This method cooks these frozen latkes extremely nicely; in my opinion, it’s superior than other methods. Your machine should always be preheated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for five minutes.

  • Apply nonstick spray to the basket.
  • Arrange them inside so they don’t overlap.
  • Shut drawer and cook for approximately 9 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or until thoroughly browned.
  • In either case, you can save any leftovers for the following day, though fresh food is always preferable. Place them first on a paper towel and then into a freezer bag to prevent them from becoming wet and strange. Just like with chicken wings, lay flat in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave or Cosori to crisp up again.

Mashed Air Fryer Potato Pancakes

by
Mashed Air Fryer Potato Pancakes

The greatest approach to repurpose leftover mashed potatoes into a different entrée or side dish is to make air fryer potato pancakes. Cheese within, crispy exterior.

Pancakes with Mashed Potatoes

Because the bottom of these babies is not in contact with the hot air, you will want to turn them over halfway through. In this manner, both sides become crispy, just like they do in restaurants. This post’s downloadable recipe card can be found at the bottom, but here’s a brief look at how we made it:
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. For five minutes, preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you haven’t already, put nonstick cooking spray on your foil before placing a tiny sheet of nonstick aluminium foil (or parchment paper) in the air fryer basket.
  • Use about 1/4 cup of your potato mixture to make patties. Place on foil, making sure not to overlap.
  • Cook for about 8 minutes, then turn the patties over and continue cooking for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the outsides are the desired crisp-golden colour.
  • Add sour cream, chopped chives, green onions, garlic salt, and/or salt and pepper to the top of your crispy potato pancakes.
 Prep Time: 10minutes 
 Cook Time: 16minutes 
 Servings:6

Ingredients:

  1. Mashed potatoes, two cups
  2. One cup of cheddar cheese
  3. two chopped green onions
  4. One egg
  5. Half a cup of all-purpose flour
  6. One dash of pepper and salt, to taste
Directions:
  1. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. For five minutes, preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit. In the basket of your air fryer, place a tiny piece of nonstick aluminium foil or mist it with olive oil spray.
  2. Use roughly 1/4 cup of your mixture to make patties. Patties should not overlap when placed on foil.
  3. Cook for 8 minutes, then turn the patties over and continue cooking for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until you achieve your desired level of crispy exteriors.
  4. Add sour cream, chopped chives, salt, and pepper on top.

 

Make a Fabulous Lasagna

by
Make a Fabulous Lasagna

Make a Fabulous Lasagna. This dish is something you’ll want to share, or else you’ll be eating it for a week. Remember that it freezes really nicely!
Yes, feel free to grab some cheese, a jar of sauce, and some noodles. Warm up and consume.

Ingredients To Make Fabulous Lasagna:

Step 1 For Recipe:

The foundation of meat:

  1. One pound of mild Italian sausage
  2. 3/4 pound lean ground beef (do not use cheap hamburgers; they make greasy lasagna).
  3. I understand that the hamburger appears pink due to the lighting. It wasn’t.
  4. Two minced garlic cloves * Half a cup of finely chopped onion
  5. The mix-ins: (Hunts brand tomato products are the best option in our shopping region.) Yes, a little variation in size is acceptable.
  6. Two 6-ounce cans of tomato paste; one 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes; and two 6.5-ounce cans of tomato sauce
  7. Half a cup of water

Spice, sugar, and all things lovely

  1. 1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
  2. 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
  3. 2 tablespoons white sugar
  4. One tsp of Italian spice

savoury, sage, oregano, basil, marjoram, thyme, and rosemary

  • One tablespoon of salt, one-fourth teaspoon of ground black pepper, and four tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley, divided (use two tablespoons for the cheese mixture and two tablespoons for the sauce).

Cheese as a topping and filler for pasta

  • Twelve lasagna noodles.
  • One egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 pound sliced or shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (not the cheap stinky stuff)
  • 16 ounces of ricotta cheese (don’t be cheap, get the good stuff, like Polly-O brand)

*TIP* Ricotta cheese and cottage cheese are not the same.
Made from curds, cottage cheese has lumps, while ricotta is smooth and made from whey.

Step 2 For Recipe:

  • Cook the hamburger, sausage, onions, and garlic in a big pot, such a Dutch oven, over medium heat until they are thoroughly cooked. Make sure this is cooked all the way through; no pink, people.

Step 3 For Recipe:

  • That neat-looking tool for chopping the beef in the cooking process

Step 4 For Recipe:

After the beef is cooked all the way through, add the following:

  • Add the water, sugar (see note below), dried basil leaves, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, two tablespoons of parsley, smashed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and salt and pepper.
    *TIP* The significance of preparing one’s herbs and spices before combining cannot be emphasised enough.
    Cooks with easily preoccupied minds, like me, could easily forget if they applied salt or not.

Step 5 For Recipe:

  • Give your sauce a full hour and a half to simmer, not boil.Stir occasionally. Now would be a good time to set your oven temperature to 375 degrees.
  • Add the salt to the water in a big saucepan and heat it up.
  • To speed up the boiling process, cover the pot.
  • Even though the original recipe only called for twelve noodles, I should have cooked more, in retrospect. Cook the whole package, hell. The lasagna was quite tasty, however I felt like there was a lot of sauce on it. However, the surplus might be wiped off using a delicious toasted bread, I believe adding another layer of noodles would be fantastic.

Step 6 For Recipe:

  • After the water is boiling, add the noodles. Instead of packing them in, gently submerge them in the water and let them sink gradually.
    My preference is to arrange them so that you can see their sides.
  • To prevent the noodles from sticking, simply move a spoon handle, knife, or other object between them periodically.
  • Before you add the noodles, make sure the water is boiling and maintain that boiling point. If necessary, add the noodles to the pot, cover it, and keep an eye on it. A pot that is covered returns to a boil much more quickly. Once the cover is off, proceed with cooking as normal.
  • Lasagna noodles usually need to cook for 8 to 10 minutes, but you should always double-check the box. Once the cooking process is over, remove the noodles.

Assemble the components. Refer to the following action.

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the ricotta cheese, egg, salt, and the remaining 2 Tablespoons of parsley. Make sure to thoroughly mix everything together.
  • Cover the bottom of a sizable casserole dish (at least 9 by 13) with 1 1/2 cups of sauce.
  • You can adjust the following if you’d like, based on the quantity of noodles you cooked and the amount of layers you want to make.
  • Evenly distribute half of the cheese mixture onto the noodles. Use one-third of the mozzarella cheese to cover the cheese mixture.
  • Cover the top layer with 1 1/2 cups of the beef sauce. Be cautious when spreading; you don’t want to mix it.
  • Avoid making a mess by not pouring the sauce into the centre of the pan and trying to spread it. Make even tiny mounds all over the dish, then distribute each one equally, or make a lengthy trail down the centre.
  • Over the meat sauce, scatter 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese.
  • When your meal is baking, use a non-stick cooking spray to coat the back of a wide sheet of aluminium foil to prevent the delicious cheese from adhering to the foil.
  • A 25-minute timer should be set. Bake the lasagna for 25 minutes at 375° while covered with foil.
  • Without the foil, bake for a further twenty-five minutes. The lasagna should be watched carefully because oven temperatures vary. If you cook it for the full 25 minutes, you might find the edges to be a little too brown for your taste.

Keep in mind, there is a lot of lasagna here. Take cautious taking it out of the oven.

  • Move to a heat-resistant surface safely. Before you begin to cook, gather the family around to witness your culinary prowess.
  • To prevent the notorious cheese string from moving from the serving dish to the plate, let the lasagna cool for a short while.

The easiest approach to preserve leftovers is to leave them in the pan and let them cool overnight rather than scooping everything out. After the cheese has solidified the following day, the lasagna is ready to be sliced into nice little pieces.

You succeeded! It was also simple!
Thank you for reading my instructable, and bon apetit. I really hope you will think about preparing this delicious lasagna.

HOW TO CLEAN AN AIR FRYER BASKET

HOW TO CLEAN AN AIR FRYER BASKET

HOW TO CLEAN AN AIR FRYER BASKET

It’s not as difficult as it sounds to clean an air fryer with baked-on fat. A little patience and the appropriate instruments are all you need!

Why a clean air fryer is necessary

Compared to, example, your microwave, you should clean your air fryer more frequently. In this manner, the baked-on, stuck-on grease that tends to accumulate over time is avoided. If your air fryer is clean, it will function much better!

If you want to learn how to clean an air fryer and get baked grease off for good, there are a few tried and true solutions. Possessing an air fryer requires knowing how to clean it properly, and more especially, how to clean the basket!

Every time you use your air fryer, you should make it a habit to clean at least the basic parts of the appliance. Your air fryer may break down as a result of leftover food particles getting into places they shouldn’t be.

Or even worse, you might break your really unclean air fryer!

 

AIR FRYER CLEANING TIPS
Disassembling an air fryer is the best way to clean it. Make sure you have cleared the air fryer of all large food particles before you begin. Remove the air fryer’s basket and drawer, then fill them with hot water and Dawn dish soap. Dish soap works well as a degreaser.

Enjoy the delectable food you just prepared in your air fryer while the basket and drawer soak!

Here’s how to clean the basket and drawer of an air fryer after eating. Use a sponge that isn’t too rough to thoroughly clean the basket and drawer.

Avoid the temptation to soak the drawer and basket overnight as this may make the baked-on grease more difficult to get rid of.

 

TIPS FOR CLEANING THE OVEN OF AN AIR FRYER
Is there a worse thing than the sticky grease found inside air fryers? There are few things that are more annoying than cleaning kitchen appliances! You should keep the following air fryer cleaning tips in mind:

Avoid using anything abrasive, such as scrubbers and some products.
It is crucial to keep in mind that the majority of air fryers, despite what the handbook may state, are not dishwasher safe.
To prevent burns, let your air fryer cool down before cleaning it.
A kitchen fire may result from an extremely unclean air fryer.
Your air fryer will last longer if you maintain it properly!

 

HOW OFTEN IS IT SUITABLE TO CLEAN AN AIR FRYER?
Your air fryer has certain parts that require cleaning more frequently than others. Understanding how to clean the basket and drawer of an air fryer is crucial, as it should be done after each usage.

Every month or so, you should also perform a thorough cleaning. Note that attachments for your air fryer, such as silicone liners, parchment liners, and silicone baskets, might make cleanup easier. Your air fryer will require less frequent cleaning if you use them!

Making sure that the basket and drawer are cleaned as frequently as possible is the best approach to maintain an air fryer.

 

AN IN-DEPTH CLEANING OF AN AIR FRYER
Once a month or after preparing something extremely greasy, like air fryer bacon or air fryer hamburgers, you should give your air fryer a thorough cleaning.

If this is the first time you’ve cleaned your air fryer thoroughly or if it needs a monthly cleaning, follow these instructions! What you’ll need is

Powerwash Spray by Dawn
A sponge that isn’t rough
A toothbrush
Take off the drawer and basket from the air fryer, then replace them with hot water and Dawn dish soap. After letting it sit, carefully remove any remaining sticky grease with the non-abrasive sponge.

Apply Dawn Powerwash Spray after that. After letting it set for ten to fifteen minutes, thoroughly clean your air fryer with a toothbrush to remove any remaining grease. After rinsing, let the air fryer to dry.

Note: Before you use the Dawn Powerwash Spray, test a small part of your air fryer. All air fryers are made differently so it’s important to know how yours will react to the spray.

 

How to clean the heating element in an air fryer?
Make sure the air fryer is absolutely cold before you start. Simply spray the bottom of the air fryer with Dawn Powerwash Spray or a baking soda mixture, and then use a toothbrush or non-abrasive sponge to scrape it clean. Make sure the cleaner does not get on the coils.

After flipping the air fryer over to see the interior, thoroughly clean the area surrounding the heating coil and the air fryer’s top with a moist, non-abrasive microfiber cloth. To avoid breaking the coil, you should only use water and gently clean the area surrounding the air fryer heating element. Using both an air fryer oven and basket, this method is really effective!

Use this tutorial instead if you want to use an air fryer to clean a wall oven.

 

WAYS TO CLEAN AN AIR FRYER’S BAKED-ON GREASE
There exist multiple methods for cleaning baked-on grease from an air fryer. Dish soap, hot water, Dawn Powerwash Spray, and a toothbrush can all be used. Alternatively, you can use a mixture of baking soda and water in place of the spray.

 

AIR FRYER BASKET CLEANING: IDEAL DEGREASER AND CLEANING SPRAY
It’s likely that if you’re looking to buy a new air fryer, you want one that is simple to clean! The following are some of the top choices for an air fryer that is simple to clean:

The Cosori 6.8QT Dual Blaze Air Fryer has a dishwasher-safe, detachable basket. I also use an air fryer just like this one.

The 4 Qt Ninja AF101 Air Fryer has a multi-layered rack, a crisper plate, and a dishwasher-safe basket. For the simplest method of cleaning your air fryer after cooking, just remove the detachable parts and place them in the dishwasher!
The basket, baking pan, and oven rack of the Cuisinart AFR-25 AirFryer are simple to remove and clean.
