I'll probably wake up constipated. Pre_Coder private msg quote post Address this user
More of a morning type meal for me, but this was my dinner...

Steamed 3/4 cups of white rice
Added a slice of real cheese
Then 4 eggs cooked over-easy dumped on top
Butter, salt, and pepper

Good to go.

Salt and pepper pork chops. His first attempt. A tad bland but super moist and juicy.

They look a little more like pork strips to me.

The salt and pepper pork needed more salt and pepper?

If I am doing S&P fried pork I like adding Sichuan peppercorns. Whole new experience with only modest additional effort. Of course can take it in a few more directions from there.

@Davethebrave

He avoided heavy spices because he wanted to make sure everyone could eat it. But honestly it needed a little bit of spice. Next time he needs to add spice and he said he will try potato starch instead of corn starch to get it a bit crisper. It's a work in progress. You figure these are dishes he has never made before and he is also using a outdoor burner to avoid stinking up the house. It might take some time, but I'm confident he will get it. He is stubborn as a mule...

Here is a picture of the burner on high.

They look great. Maybe a dipping sauce to give them a little kick.

@DrWatson

I was thinking a sweet and sour sauce might be a good addition. But his sweet and sour had a bit too much vinegar last time. But I need to taste what it tastes like from a restaurant to see how close he is. But honestly, as juicy and tender as they were, they were pretty good for that reason alone.

I’ve been ruined on pork chops due to a dried out oven shake n bake since like 1987. Aside from a quick grill after a marinade, I don’t know anything good to do with them..

@HeinzDad

If you lived closer I'd invite you for dinner. My brother typically does really well with pork. I don't think he has ever screwed it up to where I didn't like it.

He did mess up jerky once though. He added fresh pineapple to tenderize a bottom round cut of beef and it literally turned to mush. His attempts at jerky afterward seem to have yielded favorable results though.

Yeah, I get it. Our kids are young (1 and 3). While they tolerate spice better than most kids (or adults) I often prep different spice levels (batches) or just take it down to their level. Or sauce vs no sauce.

Sichuan peppercorn is not really spicy (in the sense of “heat”) but can be intense. Not something I use regularly. We don’t eat fried pork regularly either though. :-)

Potato starch is what we typically use for korean fried chicken (another twice fried food). For most of our battered chicken recipes, in fact. Corn starch is okay too… but not quite the same.

That setup reminds me of an F4 exhaust with burners lit…

Seems like you’re regularly treated to new culinary adventures. Very cool.

All you need to do is add some onions, brocolli, and a cup of coffee with cream & sugar and you'll be on your way to shtting your pants.

@Davethebrave

Yes. He does a bit of everything. Chinese, American, Italian, Mexican, he wants to do some gyros soon. Everything has to be homemade with this guy. He wont use a microwave though. He steams or bakes all his foods hot. Weird cookie, but so far I'd say 85% of the stuff is good or better than good. So his fails are few and far between.

@Bronte

Another pork dish for your brother to try is tonkatsu. One of my favorite hot Japanese dishes and a key step (component) towards katsudon.

Not sure how popular “non-sushi” Japanese is where you are.

Do you have a specific recipe? Or just Google away?

Edit

Sushi isn't a big thing where I'm at. So far I'm not a big fan of it either so no big loss. As big as my city is. Finding decent restaurants is actually kinda hard. Go figure. You have to travel to ft Lauderdale for decent dim sum and that's like 1 hour away. 30 minutes for decent Mexican. Etc...

Edit 2

I asked him about your suggestion. He said he knows how to make it and told me if I want he can make me some.

I'll have to try that,.. not the shitty pants part.

@Bronte and @Davethebrave - One of the teachers I work with is a real foodie. He’s worked at a few restaurants and constructed an amazing kitchen at his house. When he asks me if I want him to bring some extra clam chowder or hot and sour soup, I can’t sat “yes, thank you” fast enough. There’s also an amazing Asian restaurant with a market located near him. He just gave me a bag of sweet potato starch to try (somehow my part-Irish wife is allergic to potatoes!). I will let you know when I try it.

You should. It's a good way of using up some left overs and making eclectic combo's.
