Pork & Veggie Bibimbap with Zucchini, Carrots & Jasmine rice

1 serving prepared 

Here's what you get:


Jasmine rice 
Carrots 
Ginger 
White wine vinegar 
Sriracha (I used my big bottle)
Ground pork -5 oz used 
Scallions 
Zucchini 
Garlic 
Sesame oil 
Soy sauce (not used)
Tamari (substitution)

The rice:

I only made a 1/4 cup, using a little over 3/4 cups of water and a tsp rice vinegar it took 15 mins total to cook.

The sauce and scallion pickles:

Both of these were easy prep and take just a few seconds to put together after the scallions are chopped.

The veggies:

The prep for these was pretty quick and I like the idea of thin slicing  for the carrots. Unfortunately I destroyed my potato perler and used a spiral cutter instead. I also decided to use a non stick pan this time and... nope.  The veggies came out fine but I didn't get the same char I like when using my cast iron pan. 

The protein:

This was as easy as making meat for tacos or Hamburger Helper. Because I was making a small amount the cook time was very quick. 

The plate!

I really enjoyed the flavors on this one. Because of the white wine vinegar I didn't really need to add any vinegar to the rice during cooking but it didn't affect the flavor too much. This is one I'd definitely make again. There are some components and flavors from this dish that I will be utilizing to make other things.

Cheese tortilla party

Making:  Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder  30 Grams butter powder  419 grams hot water  Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked.  Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form.  The plate! - Kris
