Sam's Birthday Dinner




For Sam's birthday i wanted to make something delicious, and she wanted something roasted. So we decided that making roasted pork belly was the best option. It was really nicely done and we ate it with roasted potatoes, carrots, celery, beets and some goats cheese stuffed mushroom caps.

the pork was done the way i usually do it. with a dressing of
  • mustard
  • honey
  • chili sauce for spice
i also cut off the top layer of skin so it wasnt soo tough and more fat could melt off.

i roasted the veggies (carrots, celery) with the pork and added the fat of pork to potatoes but cooked in another sheet at the top of oven so it would be hotter.



the mushrooms were really simple too. I just took the stems out, and where the little bowl in the cap i just added a little bit of goats cheese. I put those in the oven for 15 min while everything was cooking.

the beets were done by putting beets in oven at 375 wrapped in tin foil for 40 min to an hour. i just put them in oven with meat.

Once you have the cooked beets mix
  • some grated orange rind
  • the juice of an orange
  • touch of vinegar
  • a little bit of olive oil
  • salt/pepper
  • cayenne powder
Than slice beets and drizzle sauce over all of this.
