ROAST PORK & MACARONI CHEESE

PRESSURE COOKER ROAST PORK



This was soo easy to do... I just rubbed a paste made with garlic, salt and pepper over the whole roasting pork (2.5 kg). In a pressure cooker, I sealed all sides of pork, took pork out of pan, pour 1/2 cup of water into pan... Put steam rack inside pan and rested browned pork on top of rack. Closed lip and cooked for 1 hour counting after pressure started. Released pressure, transferred pork to a baking tray and To complete, I brushed a mixture of soy sauce and brown sugar on pork and put in oven (220 degrees) for 15 min or until golden. NOTE: I removed pork fat (rind) after cooked in pressure cooker, rubbed with salt and put under a hot grill until crack. It was delicious!!!

BAKED MACARONI CHEESE



I was a bit disappointed with this one... I used a pasta given by a friend and I suspected it was made with rice flour... The taste was blend and completely different from regular pasta. I used a mixture of tasty, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese and even after all the cheeses, the flavor did not improved... What didn't help was the fact I don't like macaroni cheese to start of with! Nevertheless... That's how I made it:
Cooked pasta. In a pirex I put a layer of pasta, cheeses, pieces of butter, salt, pepper, pasta again, cheeses, salt and pepper. Them I mixed 1 cup of milk with 2 beaten eggs and pour on top. Sprinkled dry bread crumbs on top and put pieces of butter. Baked in 180 degrees for 30 minutes. I think this pasta would be wonderful if made with regular pasta... I definitely will try again!!!
