Kia Ora Dear readers,
Summer a wonderful season in New
Zealand, well I still recall bees everywhere and when I was so
allergically affected to pollen in this season. But one thing comes
to my mind “snap” blueberries season.
It was after a go-round south island
tour and then we straight head on the North to pick blueberries
somewhere near Hamilton and Cambridge. It was not fun at all about
the wages but we were happy with our working life. Pick blueberries
starting in end of December till April (estimation)
What would you do ?? with blueberries
in case your boss gave them to you for free or you bought it so
super-cheap, like a whole 1kg bag just for $2 dollars. It might not
be the best grade, but we still can put them into our stomach.
Making Blueberry cheese cake,
blueberry ice-cream or agar-agar it could be really lame. Because it
all dessert.
Lets make something really fusion.. I
mean it is “very fusion” or “exotic” or “bizarre”
Meet the meat with Blueberries.. Well
it is something we call Ku Lou Yuk 酸甜咕鲁肉
it will be a 蓝莓酸甜咕鲁肉
Ingredients:
- Mince meat (your choice of quantity, suggest just chicken will be good)
- Blueberries (300-500 grams)
- salt, pepper, flour, little-bit of soy-sauce (tiny little tea-spoon)
- sugar and water (50grams to 100 grams, and it depends the ripeness of blueberries)
Method:
- Add in salt, pepper, flour, soy sauce into the mince meat, mix it well until you feel the stickiness and make them into patty shapes, round shapes, balled shapes – any shapes you like.
- Chop blueberries- ready to use.
- Heat an oiled pan, put in the meat and let them pan fry become golden brown. Take it out and let them dry out from oil. (Backpackers have no budget to buy kitchen tissue)
- Heat a pan (you can use the oiled pan before but make sure you wash it first), add in sugar, water, blueberries and let all of them boil-melt together and caramelized. Keep it boiling in low heat
- Put all the fried meat into the boiling blueberry-pool, slightly mix them, and turn it off.
Plate it on and garnish some chopped
blueberries and mint on top.
Voila
My suggestion > Eat it with rocket
salad and shredded par-meson cheese (I love rocket salad)
If you are lazy enough, just buy a pack
of sausage, nuggets or ready-to-cook meat ball.
