Pork Chop Spaghetti by RiA

I'm here again for another dish to share with you. This time, a twist of spaghetti which is called pork chop spaghetti. This was the first time I got to cook this and it went very well. I just had a bit problem with the pork, I think I should cook it longer so it will be softer. I got this recipe from my android phone application "recipe". You can also check it out here. These are the ingredients for this recipe:


Ingredients:

1 tbsp · butter
6 shoulder pork chops -- 1/2 inch thick
¼ cup · onion -- chopped
1 can · (15 oz.) tomato sauce
1 spaghetti sauce, packet -- 1 1/2 oz.
¾ to 1 cup water
½ cup · grated parmesan cheese
¼ packages · spaghetti (8 oz.)
1 cup · mozzarella cheese -- shredded
1/4 cup sugar (optional)
1/2 cup ketchup (optional)

Procedure:
Melt butter in electric skillet. Add pork chops and brown slowly on both sides.
Remove from skillet; add onion and saute until tender. Add tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce mix and water. Mix well.
Reduce heat to low; return pork chops to skillet, cover and simmer 45 to 55 minutes or until tender. If sauce is too thick, add more water.
Stir parmesan cheese into cooked sauce.
Meanwhile, prepare spaghetti according to package directions; drain and arrange spaghetti and chops on serving platter. Spoon sauce over all. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over pork chops. Serves 6.


For this recipe, I failed to add in the mozzarella so instead, I used grated Parmesan cheese on top. I also added sugar and ketchup to make it "a pinoy style" spaghetti. It is up to you how you like your spaghetti. If you want a more Italian taste, add more tomato sauce and don't add the sugar.

You can add garlic bread as your side dish for a complete meal. I will add more pasta dishes soon. Don't be afraid to try new recipes instead of the usual. Until my next dish! See yah!

Spinach and Tuna Pasta by RiA

I got this recipe from allthecooks.com but the original recipe had just the spinach, since I have canned tuna left here at home, I decided to add it on this dish. It tasted so good! I'd like to share this with you.



These are the ingredients:
226 gr. - pasta noodles (supposedly fettuccine noodles but I used the spiral one),
226 gr - fresh spinach
1tbsp - garlic salt (mash garlic with salt)
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 can tuna flakes
pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Procedure:
Cook the pasta noodles (fettuccine or spiral) to a boiling water for 10 minutes or until the pasta is a little bit soft, drain. In a pan, stir-fry the tuna flakes until cooked, add in the garlic salt, heavy cream, nutmeg then mix the pasta and the fresh spinach. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.

This dish is very delicious and nutritious too because it has vegetables and tuna. This is good for those who are on a diet.

You can partner it with a garlic bread. Just toss a pan bread with a garlic mixture: heat the butter for a short time, just until it melted, put in minced garlic, salt and pepper and basil leaves.

Hope you can try this and share it with me via a comment. Until my next dish! See yah!

Ground Beef Enchiladas by RiA

I got this recipe from allthecooks.com and since I have pizza dough left in our fridge, I used it instead of tacos or tortillas that is in the original recipe.


Here are the ingredients for this delicious dish:
2 lb. Ground Beef
1/4 cup onion
1 garlic clove mashed with
1/2 teaspoon salt or garlic salt
1/2 shredded carrot (1/2 to 1 cup)
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoon flour
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon instant bouillon

Procedure:
Brown meat in frying pan. Add garlic, onion, carrot, oregano, cumin and instant bouillon. Stir until blended. Sprinkle flour on top. Stir in. Simmer until meat and carrots are tender.
I used pizza dough as the tortilla. I cut them in 4 and then filled them with the meat filling, rolled up tightly. Then bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until brown.

If you want, you can also do other procedures for this:
For Tacos: Cook tortillas in hot oil, few minutes each side. Fold in 1/2. Drain on paper towels. Fill each taco with spoonful of taco meat. May use prepared shells.
For Enchiladas: Fill softened tortillas with meat filling and shredded jack cheese. Bake about 20 minutes.
For Chimichangas: Fill flour tortillas with meat filling, cheese and refried beans. Roll up tightly. Be sure to fold edges and sides. Fry in hot oil for a few minutes on each side until lightly browned. Top with salsa and sour cream.
For Burritos:Fill flour tortillas with refried beans, meat filling and cheese and roll up. Warm in microwave to melt cheese and heat through. Add desired toppings.
You can add a dip for it like I did. Just add mayo, ketchup, salt and pepper and milk or you can just eat it that way. This can be a substitute for a meal because of the dough, which is very filling. You can also use it as a side dish for a soup.

Try this out for yourself. Until my next dish. See yah!
