Pork Meatball Banh MiBy Fish FoodThese Vietnamese hybrid sandwiches called banh mi are made using pantry and commissary ingredients.
To make it gluten free, serve over rice like a banh mi bowl instead of a sandwich. Fried Rice + Ham & PeasBy Fish FoodSimple, easy and tasty. And yes, it uses deli ham as an ingredient.
Use up your leftover cooked rice for the best texture and taste. Chicken + Dumpling Noodles (IP Version)By Fish FoodThese Chicken and Dumplings are like a warm blanket on a cold rainy night. Soothing and cozy, a perfect hearty meal to dive into.
The “dumplings” are like thick noodles, and can be cut in any preferred length.
Of course this recipe is using the Instant Pot, but could be altered to be stove top, just add more time to cook the chicken and dumplings through.
Serves hearty portions to 4-6.Chicken + Bok Choy SautéBy Fish FoodThis meal comes together super fast! The flavors are reminiscent of a typical stirfry, so don’t forget to serve it atop a bowl of freshly steamed rice. Additional veggies can be added, just account for different veggie cooking times.Pork Shoulder 4️⃣-ways & IP Style/Oven RoastBy Fish FoodPork shoulder is a versatile cut of meat, which loves being cooked low and slow. The Instant Pot helps cut that time drastically, but if you don’t have an IP, fear not, these recipes can also be done in the oven (just bank on about 4 hours of roasting time).
All four of these recipes come from the Milk Street Cookbook, which prides itself in super simple but robust flavors.
A couple of the recipes can be made pantry friendly, but the others do require a few “out of pantry” items.
Most pork, once finished cooking and shredded can be eaten atop a rice bowl, piled between toasted buns, wrapped in a tortilla or even accompanying a crispy fresh salad.
