Pop into a bowl, then scatter in the Paprika, salt, thyme and the garlic and onion powder, gently toss to coat. 3: Pour a generous amount of oil into a baking tray and pop into an oven pre-heated to 200c / 180c fan and heat for 15 minutes, scatter the potatoes into the hot oil then turn to coat generously in the oil.

Welcome to my Fakeaway Series. If you are from the UK, then you will know the only way you can get your hands on a McRib is to make it yourself and I’m here to show you exactly how to do it. Tag someone who misses the McRib. McRib Sandwich (serves 2) 400g good quality pork mince ½ tsp. salt 1 tbsp. BBQ seasoning 1 tsp. garlic granules 1 tsp. onion granules ½ tsp. black pepper BBQ sauce 2 sub rolls toasted White onion sliced Gherkins (optional as I hate them) Method: 1: Place your pork mince into a bowl then add in the salt, BBQ seasoning, garlic, granules, onion granules and black pepper. Mix well, then shape into two rectangular patties measuring approximately 6” x 3” if you wet your hands, this will make the job easier, then use your finger to make four indents within the meat, this will replicate the original shop bought version. 2: Place the patties into your air fryer and cook at 190c for 15 minutes or the internal temp reaches at least 75c. Halfway through brush with BBQ sauce. 3: Spread some BBQ sauce onto the base of a toasted sub roll, place the rib patty on top, then add some onions and gherkins before topping with the bun lid.

Welcome to my Fakeaway Series, I had a proper Alan Partridge moment with this, leave me a comment if you’ve ever done the same 🤣🔥 IYKYK Apple Pie (makes 3) 25g unsalted butter 150g Apples cut into small cubes 25g soft brown sugar Small squeeze lemon juice ½ tsp. ground cinnamon 1 tsp. cornflour and 1 tbsp. cold water mixed into a slurry 1 x sheet ready rolled puff pastry 1 egg beaten 1: Pop the butter into a pan, along with the apple, sugar and lemon juice, then add cinnamon to taste. Cook for five minutes over a low to medium heat, then add in the cornflour slurry. Cook for a further three minutes until thickened and then leave to cool. For ease, I like to put this mixture into a piping bag. 2: Cut a sheet of ready, rolled puff pastry into six equal sized pieces, take one of the pieces and pipe on a line of the Apple mix down the centre, brush the edges with the beaten egg, then place another piece on top. Gently squeeze out any air around the filling and then use a fork to firmly seal the edges. If you like, you can trim the edges to make them nice and neat. Pop into the freezer for at least an hour as this will make them easier to handle. 3: Deep fry in oil heated to 170° for eight minutes until crisp and golden. I like to dust mine in cinnamon sugar before eating. Please learn from my experience and leave to cool for a bit before eating. ##mcdonalds##applepie##desserttiktok##fakeaway##fakeawayfriday##baking##bakingtiktok
