Smoky Pork Sliders with Barbecue Sauce

Gordon Ramsay made these into bite sized mini burgers, I decided to make 4 big burgers instead.  However you choose to make yours is of course up to you.  Smoky from the bacon and paprika and with a sweet and sour hit from the barbecue sauce, these burgers are seriously good.

 The addition of Applewood smoked Cheddar really does the trick but any smoked Cheddar will be fine.

Mojo Sauce - Canarian Red Sauce

Back from our holidays in Fuerteventura and what a fantastic time we had!

I've never eaten so much fresh fish and paella in my life and besides that was one of my favorite things was Mojo sauce - I love the stuff!   

It seems there are so many different versions of this sauce but the one served in the Barcleo Jandia Playa hotel was extra yum.  So, with that in mind I was on a mission to get the recipe and I tracked down the man that made it.

Sweet and Sour Dipping Sauce

I saw this recipe a while back in a Rick Stein cookery book. It's so easy to make - takes a few minutes and you're all done.
Perfect with Thai fishcakes.
