I believe children should learn how to cook: bake bread, cookies, and simple cakes using a humble kitchen stove. Both boys and girls should learn it. Learning to cook and bake gives children a sense of self-esteem and pride in their accomplishments: I’m so smart, I can learn anything!
Ingredients:
- 3 lbs Fatty meat
- 1 cup Sour fruit like cranberry juice
- 1 tsp Cumin powder
- 1 tsp Masala spice
- Salt, peppers, garlic to taste.
Cooking:
- Cut sour fruit like plums. Cook them for a few minutes in a stainless pot adding some water or cranberry juice.
- Add cumin, spices, salt, pepper, garlic (minced), and stir.
- The sour sauce is ready. Add fatty meat, bring to boil, and cook on low heat, hardly boiling, until well done.
- You can use pork chops, shoulders, ribs, belly – any part of a pig.
- You can use brisket, which is a cow belly, shoulder, ribs, but no rump which is hind legs.
- Chicken legs or quarters can be cooked in cranberry-mix juice. Ducks are really delicious when cooked completely submerged in juice.
- Cranberry jam mixed with water makes a good sour sauce.
- For a very quick dinner you can use store-bought ground meat. It has enough fat to qualify as fatty meat.
- Just add a couple of eggs, mix, form meatballs, and cook in a sour sauce for 15-20 minutes.
- Eggs, or its protein, keep the meat balls together, prevent from falling apart, and keeps meat juice inside.
- If meat is too fat, cook it in sour sauce for about 30 minutes.
- Separately, cook lean meat like beef rump in a small amount of water for about 30 minutes.
- Grind both meats, mix them, add eggs, form meat balls, and cook in the sour sauce another 10-15 minutes.
- You will discover that good meat is fat meat, and a sour sauce is sent from heaven.
- Serve with rice on a side, or bread.
- Meat cooked in a sour sauce has even a better taste the next day because the flavor goes inside the meat.
