Stuffed Pickled Beets and Blue Cheese Wrappers

These are not ravioli but like ravioli – that are stuffed wrappers that are forking EZ and forking quick to prepare. I made some very basic pickled beets I just roasted beets in a little apple cider vinegar, sugar, little salt,  little bit of water till soft and pealed them. But you can just use your favorite pickled beets. With the blue cheese in the wrappers they came out delicious and and sort of seem forking fancy.

Then I used these fun and easy to use wrappers.

And I put a little blue cheese in the middle of them.

Then I wet the edges of wrapper with water and topped each one with another wrapper.

I pinched the edges up.

They get gently boiled now only a minute or two in salted water.

Piri Piri Style Chicken

I put this forking photo up on twitter and it got retweeted to 44,370 people. It came out forking great!  Piri Piri is basically a spicy red pepper sauce that you also use as a marinade and let sit overnight and then cook the chicken.  I served mine with my new favorite grain freekah and roasted vegetables. I’ll post the forking  recipe this week.

Cut the kumquats into quarters and remove any seeds you see. Add some chopped onions and sprinkle 1/4 cup sugar to every 8 oz of kumquats you used. Sprinkle the whole pan with extra virgin olive oil. Roast in 350 degree oven till slightly browned. (about 40 min.)

Remove from oven sprinkle with toasted watermelon seeds, Aleppo Pepper, fresh ground sea salt, fresh ground black pepper and pour over chicken. Fresh basil will complete the dish. To make the dish more filling add some rice, noodles or a chunk of delicious bread.

This came out more delicious than it looks. It very refreshing and a little sweet, tangy and  savory .
