The Eclectic Chef

Добавлен 12 фев 2023
Eclectic: “..not following one style or set of ideas but choosing from or using a wide variety.” Or: “…selecting what appears to be best in various doctrines, methods, or styles.”
I have been cooking for 50+ years. My first memories are of helping my Dad with a recipe he had got from watching Graham Kerr, The Galloping Gourmet. Fast forward to 1983 when I moved from England to the Southwestern United States. I have travelled extensively, but have developed a love of South East Asian cooking.
I am a child of what is called the Black Country in England. Inevitably as I grow older, I love to dwell on that area’s food. I am also developing a renewed interest in English food, which I consider vastly underrated.
Other areas of cuisine I love: Italy and the Iberian peninsula. I am also a dedicated oenophile, especially as it relates to Spanish and Portuguese wines. Add Sake too.
I also have developed a real interest in food safety... think what are we eating?

Delicious air fryer lamb chump roast in twenty minutes.
This was quick, easy and incredibly tasty! I'd say max 10 minutes prep. Hot roast lamb on the table in 30 mins or less with next to no clean-up.

KOPKE 2005 Colheita Port: Certainly one of the best Ports I've tasted!
Просмотров 814 дней назад
Colheita (pronounced Col-yate-a is a single vintage tawny port, meaning all grapes come from a single harvest year. The Portuguese word "colheita" translates to "harvest" in English. It must be aged in wooden casks for a minimum of 7 years, though many are aged much longer - sometimes up to 50-100 years. Colheitas are bottled only when the producer deems them ready to drink. There is even less ...

AIR FRYER MAGIC: Wine-soaked, sultana stuffed pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon
Просмотров 2621 день назад
Here we cook a pork tenderloin; stuffed with wine-soaked sultanas and wrapped with bacon in a simple Tower air fryer that only has temperature and time dials. To keep clean-up minimal, we cooked these in a parchment paper liner. 10 mins each side at 180C (~370F) and they were browned nicely and done, but not dry. If you are using a different air fryer, which you likely are, I would check intern...

Mediterranean treat: Lamb Shoulder Fillets in Amontillado with black olives and sultanas.
Просмотров 20Месяц назад
I wanted to stay with a Mediterranean focus with this one, even Spanish, maybe, so we braised these lamb shoulder fillets in Amontillado sherry on a bed of fragrant onion and garlic, with sultanas and black olives. Yes, we had the usual Umami boosters, but I left the Shiitakes in and they were a perfect addition. Everyone absolutely cleaned their plates and no, that is not an exaggeration. Not ...

Thanks. Turned out nicely
Never heard of this squash. I'll give it a try
I generally only see these in Asian-themed stores. They are quite hard to cut, you may want to microwave for a couple of minutes.
I just picked up a bottle of the Taylor 10 year (Taylor Fladgate here:) for $36. The 20 year was only about $15 more expensive, but I didn't think I'd be able to tell much difference between the taste of the 10 and 20. I like the 10 year (drinking it right now). Next time I'll pick up the 20 year just out of curiosity.

Safeway/Albertsons?
Just bought this tonight. I paid almost $35.00 on the East Coast in October 2024 ( about an hour ago, lol)! I put lemon zest in the sake and thought it contributed to the taste in a good way. I had it with shrimp and chicken.
That lemon zest sounds as if it worked! Good choice to pair with shrimp and chicken.
Is the vac pack mainly to keep the cure tight against the meat or are there other reasons? I see other methods just stacking it in a tub and turning it. thanks for the good video.
Keeps the cure tight and lets the bacon "stew" in the seasonings. Also takes up less room.
@@theeclecticchef thanks for that :)
Looks delicious
❤❤❤I. Love
I highly recommend this lamb shank meal. It's extremely tasty, easy to cook, and if following Chef Anthony's directions closely, the lamb will be so tender! Well worth a try!
Great review, even made me chuckle a couple times. I’ll be getting one today
Hello sir, I just finished watching your videos, and I have to say, your content is fantastic!💕 I believe your videos could reach an even wider audience with some improvements. I have analyzed your channel and identified some areas where changes could increase your viewership, subscriber count, and overall channel performance. I created a report highlighting areas for improvement on your channel. If you're interested, I'd happily share it with you!
that's sounds nuts ❤❤
Trust me, you'll love it
Acabei de comprar porém estou achando que a minha é muito mais barulhenta que a sua. 😮
Well, mine's pretty quiet as you can see in the video.
thank you
VERY HELPFUL. Thank you
Great recipe 😊
Thank you.
I understand your name says chef but honestly any asian will tell you thats way to much of water
Thanks for taking the time to comment. This method has been working for me for several years using sushi rice. And it works.
very useful
I have a couple bottles of their 2016 that I have not tried yet. All the Kirkland wines are well made, but some are too sweet-ish for me. But that's just me.
They have had some good ones this year here and in the UK. Their Rioja (my favorite wine) disappointed this year though. But, palates are different. Chacun a son goute.
Cheers fella, I work in wine retail and I'll definitely be nabbing some of these ideas from your intro and breakdown. It's definitely a region growing in popularity (here in Ireland) and you've given me some great inspiration for a preamble to give out. Stumbled upon this randomly on the sidebar, lovin the content. Thanks again mate.
You're welcome. Glad to help.
I would destroy that burger
QUICK UPDATE: I got six full portions from this Daube. Since everything was already on hand and a sunk cost, was this free food? Well, no, money was paid for the ingredients, but it does show that if we look in our pantries, fridges and freezers, we can rustle up more food than we thought without spending any more money..
Looks delicious
Great review. Costco's port is made by Fonseca and it shares the unmistakable Fonseca fruitiness and depth of color. Taylor's and Fonseca are both under the Guimaranes corporate ownership. They also share David Guimaraens as winemaker with Croft. Warre's and Taylor's are my favorite ports.
Thanks for your helpful comment.
😆 'Promo SM'
Mandolin on steroids! PERFECT. I have a slicer and you are correct.
A real chef doesn't use canned sauce.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. The context of this video is making a budget friendly meal in 30 minutes, so I respectfully suggest your comment is misplaced.
Either have a glass of water or buy a new microphone. Content of video was excellent but I felt like I was being gargled inside of your throat with your accentuated thick accent lol. Thanks to Pugh for making the video.
I just got my 8 inch vevor slicer today. It’s also my second vevor product. I have the 17 kg horizontal sausage stuffer that’s absolute awesome. How ever we did order the vevor bone/meat band saw two weeks ago. The next day we got an email saying the order was cancelled and to please refrain from ordering it again. A small set back but we managed. So far we like our vevor equipment.
How does this slicer do against frozen meat?
@@stettan1754 I haven’t sliced totally frozen meat yet but I have done partially frozen or super chilled meat and it did very well. I cut fresh deli meats and I make homemade bacon. Slices it with ease. Only issue is I wish I had gotten the 10 inch. Seems the slide where the meat goes onto slides just barely enough. I actually took the slide bumper out so I could get the extra 1/2 inch of slide movement. Otherwise a good deli slicer.
Good review for the most part i couldn’t get through the whole video because I don’t know what your doing with your mouth , eating something or i don’t know what but, I can take the sounds your making with your mouth while your talking ! I don’t think you did anymore cutting but, for a review I wish you cut various types of meats , cheeses , frozen meats, lettuce and a bunch of different vegetables. Maybe some breads a really ripe tomato and to push it meats with small bone in it to see what it does and then show how the sharpening wheel does and cut after reshaped . If there isn’t a video done with all i mentioned after I get my slicer I’ll do one . Thank you sir sry i couldn’t get through your video, just being honest and opinions can make a next video better or I can just go pound sand lol
Thanks for taking the time to comment. No, I don't eat while filming. All the mikes I use have covers, so can't help you there. I'm not likely to change how I speak after nigh on 70 yrs either. Cutting: For small cutting tasks I think you would find a mandolin to be a better choice. For lettuce or ripe toms, well my personal opinion is that's why there are sharp knives. Thanks again, good luck if you get a slicer.
I don’t know of any slicer that’s designed to cut small bones. That’s what a band saw is for. Sounds like you’re looking for a do all magical slicer/dicer machine. I don’t think you will find that.
Nice
Mistaking curing salt for pink salt is trouble one teaspoon of curing salt can kill you , please keep curing salt hidden away from children and house guest.
No sugar (burns too easily) and not Nitrates because my body does not need them.
❤
Lucky you got one they are no longer listed on there site.
Bummer. It's a nice slicer.
@@theeclecticchef Yeah i'll have to keep checking. I really like how quite it is compared to most others and the sharpener is a real bonus. If you ever want a counter top oven i can recommend this HYSapientia 24L Air Fryer Oven With Rotisserie Large XXL Digital Knob 1800W 10 in 1 airfryer Countertop Convection Mini Oven electric and grill, Double-layered Glass Door. Been using it for 7 months now and have not used the "big" oven at all since getting it. Does all i need and costs alot less in energy, quicker to boot. Take care. God bless one and all.
@@wolfman011000 Looks like great value! I bought an Anova Precision Oven last year, I wanted the steam option, but I am now officially out of counter space (I am told). 🙂
@@theeclecticchef Wow that is a serious bit of kit mate, i think i have developed oven envy :)
Reeee-Ohhhh-HAAAA
Sorry, I learned Castillian Spanish and Rioja is Spanish. My pronunciation is correct. But, I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
Delicious 😊
Thank you
I hope you found the video helpful.
I slice mine with a kitchen mandolin.
Well, I think COSTCO's 10Yr Tawny may be seasonal after all, since I could not find any. Taylor's 10Yr? Yes. Kirkland? No.
Over the past 60 years or so I've had all kinds of Oporto, vintage, late bottled, etc., and even talked with Harry Waugh about Oporto when our Les Amis du Vin chapter had a oporto tasting. These days top quality ports can be very expensive. I've had almost all of the California ports, some are terribly and some are fair, none are great. I prefer the taste of tawny and got hooked on a very nice one from Australia (Yalumba), very good but pricey for a 500ml bottle. I have some Grahams, Fonseca, and other known brands but recently tried the Trader Joe's Tawny and 10 year Tawny. Both good but the 10 yr, in my opinion, is by far the best and it also compares very well with other imports costing three times as much and at $11 I think it's a steal!
I appreciate your thoughtful comment, thank you. You might enjoy the long form video here: ruclips.net/video/5l0dTtmVNVk/видео.html
Are both available in your area currently? Or are they more seasonal?
Both available in the US. Sometimes Trader Joe's is out of the 10-year Tawny, it seems quite popular, but there's always more a few days later. COSTCO, as they do with everything, moves the Port around but it's there, somewhere.
Having tried this delicious meal, I can vouch for its flavoursome, homely, nutritious qualities. Cooked under pressure, as directed, the beef falls apart easily and is so soft and tender, whilst the Ecclectic Chef 's 'Mom's dumplings' are simply, to die for. Thank you for the guidance on this recipe! A thumbs up from me !

Looks so yummy!!!
Thank you. It is, indeed, yummy, and not that hard to make. Thanks for the comment.
Can you leave in bag for more than 7 days?
If the piece of pork is larger, it won't hurt to leave it. A couple of days over-run won't hurt either but you will need to rinse the salt and curing solution off very thoroughly after. Soak in water for an hour, even.
In a different video they even suggested cutting a small piece, before it's smoked, and fry it up. If it tastes ok great. If it's too salty, soak in water as you suggest. Then try again. Repeat if needed.
@@MikeRinger That's what I ended up doing. I cut a piece out of the center and fried it, was a bit salty. Soaked for 1.5 hours and after smoking, found it to be not salty enough. This was my first ever attempt and over all, I am happy with it.
I will add that if you stick to the weight of cure mix v weight of meat over saltiness should be less of a problem; but it is important to rinse all the wrinkles in the meat so no cure stays nestled in there.

What quantity of olives and walnuts do you add?
1/2 a can of olives, sliced; a generous handful of walnuts. I would double those quantities next time.
Thank you. It looks delicious! @@theeclecticchef
