Elvis night at The Underground Restaurant

January 9, 2010 27 Comments Filed Under: Food, Recipes, Uncategorized

Prepping the iconic Elvis sandwich
Deep fried in tempura batter, I feel I am on the cutting edge of sandwich technology

Beer batter deep fried dill pickles

Making…

7up salad…
Recipe at the end

Allow to freeze (quite useful this snowy weather when you lack space in the fridge)

Aunt Jemima’s cornbread mix: NO MESS! You can mix it in the bag provided, just add an egg and half a cup of milk. I tried this out before I did a ‘from scratch’ version.

The Aunt Jemima Version, slightly metallic after taste and a bit sandy but the important thing was that there was NO MESS!
My version, served with butter whipped with honey. The sandyness seems to disappear after a few hours.

Brokeback Baked Beans

Once they’d cooked down a bit…ketchup is a major ingredient

That Neil Rankin, him of the snooty Michelin star ways, was laughing at me, laughing at my 7up ‘salad’…but I showed him!
Neil used to own and run a sandwich shop chain. Highly successful, he got bored and decided to train up in his first love, food. He’s done the Tante Claire cookery course and has done ‘stages’ for several posh restaurants. He’s currently working at a Michelin star restaurant in the countryside. For some insane reason best known to himself, he offered to come and help me prep for the Elvis dinner and make a dessert.
At the beginning I always try to do a little talk about the meal. On this occasion it was refreshing to be able announce at the beginning

“Don’t expect to like all your food tonight, in fact scrap that, don’t expect to like any of your food tonight”

But guests LOVED the teensy deep fried peanut butter, processed cheese and banana sandwiches. I decided to fry them in tempura batter so that they wouldn’t soak up as much oil.
As Neil and I were prepping these, I said to him

“and you thought you left the sandwich world…”

Neil looked rueful and, I might venture, a tad despairing.
Guests didn’t much like the deep fried battered dill pickles but us kitchen staff did…especially as Neil had the genius idea to fry them in a beer batter…perfect combination.
Other hits: unbelievably one table devoured all their 7up salad and wanted seconds. One of them did faint later, not on the loo mind…
A woman wrote to me saying she was on a low fat diet .. I said

“you are coming to the wrong dinner love”

Brokeback Baked Beans: when a guest remarked upon their sweetness, I said:

“everything is very sweet, in fact I cut back on the sweetness. The Grits and Cheese recipe called for evaporated milk, I didn’t put it in! The Candied Yams contained Sprite for instance”

‘Grits and Cheese’ recipe from Eating the Elvis way cookbook
Uncooked catfish
The catfish looked like baby alligators…something pre-historic. One guest looked askance as it was served…

‘is this even edible?’

Hard to obtain in the UK, I finally found ‘yellow cat fish’ at Wing Yip supermarket. Catfish has quite a poor reputation, being a ‘bottom feeder’ people think it tastes of mud. I suppose it got it’s name because of the whiskers. I roasted them whole, slashing them down the sides and rubbing in the blackened seasoning. When I pulled them out of the oven, I was shocked. The heads were a different colour from the body and solid, like God was doodling one day and said to himself ‘I like the design of crabs, but why don’t I stick a fish tail on the end instead?’.
Dubiously (on a wing and a prayer) they were served and…yeah people liked ’em.
Neil’s fancy pants Michelin starred deconstructed American trilogy pie was hard to reproduce on the Aga. Finally he did a simple pie, and we adorned it with shop-bought vanilla ice cream mixed with peaches and chocolate chip cookies… Elvis’ last meal. Unfortunately I can’t show it because I didn’t see it or taste it due to the fainting incident.
The corn bread (recipe from Shuna fish Lydon) was quite sandy in texture. But I left it for a few hours, warmed it up again later and it became softer. I served the cornbread with buttermilk and butter whipped up with honey, the latter a suggestion by @scottcancook who comes from the Southern US.
Hardly anyone drank their buttermilk which is a bit like yoghurt. I felt I had to serve glasses of milk and buttermilk: Elvis drank at least four glasses a day.
I served two shapes of fries; Elvis liked round fries and regular fries. Everything in this meal was historically and medically researched, no random decisions here people!
Cheese n grits: quite nice actually…I flavoured it with a large tub of Dairylea. (My teen was so thrilled with the shopping I did for this menu, a fridge full of junk food!)
Dying of too much junk food?
Fainting lady was @lisadevaney …I must confess that although I was concerned, I also couldn’t stop laughing…was trying to hide the shaking shoulders whilst trying to prevent her from from falling on the ground…then ruthless newshound that I am…I got out my iPhone and said to her, as she came to…

“Do you mind if I blog and twitpic this?”

Dyed in the wool New Media person that she is …she said ‘no problem’ and attempted to style herself more artfully…

Menu:

Bottle of Bud
Fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
Fried dill pickles
Glass of Milk or buttermilk
Cornbread.
Candied sweet potatoes
Sweet Corn.
Grits with cheese
Fried collard greens.
Blackened catfish (Vegetarian hot dogs for veggies)
Fried fries.
Home-made Baked beans.
7up salad.
Ketchup (classed as a vegetable for these purposes)
Relish (quite healthy)
Cherry, apple and pecan pie with peach and chocolate chip cookie ice cream
Coke and Root Beer £1 a bottle

Recipes:

7up salad

A box of Lime jelly
A box of Lemon jelly
A pack of cottage cheese
A can of pineapple (crush)
3 cups of 7up
Melt the jelly, broken up into pieces, in the hot 7up.
Allow to cool and add the cottage cheese and pineapple
Allow to set.

Brokeback Baked Beans

Onion
2 Tins of haricot beans
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Half cup of molasses
1 cup of cider vinegar
Half a cup of ketchup
2 tablespoons of mustard
A sprinkling of chipotle chili sauce (if you have it, and to taste)
Black Pepper
Salt
Fry the onion,
Add the beans
Add the sugar, molasses, vinegar, ketchup, mustard.
Add the chili sauce, pepper and salt to taste.
Halfway through the cooking, take out some of the beans and crush them up then put them back.
Shuna’s Cornbread recipe 

1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour, all purpose
1 teaspoon sea salt
¼ cup sugar, brown or raw
1 teaspoon baking soda, sift
¾ cup buttermilk
1 each egg
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, meltedCornbread_on_plate
preheat oven to 350°
generously butter a 9” cake pan or various pans
mix all dry ingredients in a bowl, whisk to create a well in the center
in a separate bowl mix together the buttermilk and egg
melt butter
pour buttermilk mixture into the well of the dries all at once
mix this with a spatula/wooden spoon until almost completely incorporated
while mixing gently, add melted butter just until batter is uniform
pour into pan: batter should make the pan 1/2 to 3/4 full
bake until skewer or small sharp knife inserted in the middle comes out clean and sides have pulled away from the pan, approximately 30 minutes
when done baking, put pan on cooling rack for 5 minutes. then turn cornbread out of pan and cool completely before slicing
Cornbread will keep, unrefrigerated for about 4 days
Delicious eaten toasted with honey-butter, pan sautéed, with stewed greens, crumbled into soup, and dunked in cold buttermilk…
If you cannot get your hands on Anson Mills cornmeal (I ordered Yellow Coarse), please please find yourself a bulk section that has fresh organic cornmeal. I made this yesterday in a standard bread pan, but it’s nice in your blacker than black cast iron skillet, (make sure that it has been sitting in the oven for a spell before the batter goes in, or it’s the pan that the sizzling bacon just came out of), or cake pans. Really it depends on the ratio of interior to exterior you desire!

    How whimsical. I can see a lot of work went into this.

    7 up crush sounds great – like it needs to be on a stick in the middle of summer from an ice cream van.

    Don't think I could have done the buttermilk either. Too much. How he could have eaten like that every day is a mystery.

    The deep fried pickles would make a great bar snack.

    What's trilogy pie? Feel like I've missed out.

    Unfortunately I didn't get to try it…hence no photos…it was supposed to be a triple pie, deconstructed…but the triple challenges of doing a trashy menu, working with an Aga, and working at a home restaurant meant that the original idea could not be executed.
    When Lisa fainted, Neil had to leave to get his last train, everything happened at the same time, so I never got to see the final result!

    Those baked beans look fantastic, I would definitely have a go at making those. I'm a bit scared of the fish though! I reckon the 7up would be very popular in the summer but people just don't fancy it at the moment. Beer battered pickles sound good!

    Wow, I guess it is quite fitting that a lady fainted…the food isn't healthy – it killed Elvis so…! I can't believe the lady on the low-fat diet though – what was she thinking?!

    I'm sure this feast would have been my childhood dream…though now, I'd imagine I'd find it rather sickly – how did the guests feel by the end of it?

    It sounds like it was fun though! Wicked idea! xxx

    That Deep Fried Peanut Butter Sandwich is a killer, do you think the calorie level is as high Deep Fried Mars Bar?

    Rumour has it that Elvis used to nail around 6,000 calories per day. Shocking stats!

    Happy Eating!

    Mmmm Grits and Cheese… Haven't had those in years. Last time will have been in an ihop outside Macon, Georgia on the way Atlanta to fly home after a ridiculous fling with an American girl… good times and bad! Very brave on the Catfish front, they just do not look like something "people" should be eating!

    Have recovered from fainting from Elvis deep fried food. Extreme temperature chang may also have made me pass out–had popped out for a gag, prior to collaspe. Felt like my atteries were freaking out, can't believe Elvis made a regular diet of so many rich foods–no wonder he kicked it.

Pistachio cream filled mini eggs. I made my own Ea Pistachio cream filled mini eggs. I made my own Easter eggs this year. You need moulds-a lint free cloth to polish them- some good quality chocolate like @guittardchocolate - a pastry brush. Melt the chocolate drops over a bainmarie or 30 seconds in the microwave. Brush the chocolate into the moulds trying not to go over the edge and put the mould in the fridge. Once hardened and chilled, use a teaspoon to drop in the pistachio cream. Return to fridge. Warm up a baking tray in the oven. Then take the mini eggs put of the fridge and pop them out of the moulds. Place the flat side on the warm baking tray then press the two halves together. #easter #pacques #minieggs #eastereggs #chocolate #chocolaterecipe #easterrecipe #makeyourowneastereggs #supperclub #msmarmitelover #easter2021 #easterbasket #easterchocolateeggs

Potato and rosemary pizza with tomato & parsley sa Potato and rosemary pizza with tomato & parsley salad. Potato pizza sounds strange, after all you are double carbing. But it works. Thin soft slices of potato ( cut on a mandolin, soaked in water, then carefully dried on a tea towel) layered over day old pizza dough. ( leaving your dough a day or several just makes it deeper flavoured). A few sprigs of flowering rosemary from the garden too. I used @pomoragoodfood flavoured olive oils: the rosemary on the pizza, and garlic flavour in the salad. I also love the lemon flavour. #sundaylunch #homemadepizza #potatopizza #doublecarb #salad #simplefood #supperclub

Moqueca stew with butternut squash & jackfruit. Ma Moqueca stew with butternut squash & jackfruit. Many Brazilian dishes are African influenced & this is no exception, deriving from an Angolan stew. Usually it is with seafood, but this is a vegan version. I used palm oil which is also very Brazilian/Angolan. It’s red because of the high levels of beta-carotene. There are environmental issues around the use of palm oil- rainforest is cut down to access it. Like coconut oil it is solid when cool and liquid when heated. I spent a few months in the sertao region of Brazil & read the magical realism fiction of Jorge Amado . One of his novels: Dona Flor and her two husbands, contains recipes.
