Step 1
【Slow Roasted Pork Belly】Score the skin of the pork belly, season well with salt, and sear skin-side down over sautéed fennel and whole spices. Deglaze with white wine, add broth until it barely touches the skin, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour 30 minutes. Whisk mustard into the reduced braising liquid to serve.
Step 2
【Watermelon Froyo Boat】Hollow out watermelon wedges to make boats. Blend the scooped flesh with yogurt and honey, freeze overnight, process in an ice cream maker, and spoon back into the watermelon boats.
Step 3
【Pomme Aligot】Boil peeled Yukon gold potatoes until fork-tender and pass through a potato ricer. Mix in hot garlic-thyme infused cream and butter, transfer to a pan over low heat, and vigorously stir in shredded Mozzarella and Gruyère until extremely stretchy.
Step 4
【Tomato Bisque & Grilled Cheese】Sauté onions, carrots, and garlic with thyme, roasted peppers, and canned fire-roasted tomatoes. Blend until smooth, finish with cream and parmesan, and serve alongside a grilled challah and muenster cheese sandwich.
Step 5
【Hot Cheetos Mozzarella Stick】Wrap mozzarella string cheese in moistened rice paper, coat in crushed Flamin' Hot Cheetos, and deep fry until crispy and melted.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
For the slow roasted pork belly, keep the liquid level just below the skin so the top turns crispy while the bottom braises tenderly.
For aligot and baked mac and cheese, freshly grate the cheese off the block instead of using pre-shredded cheese to ensure maximum meltiness and stretch.
When deep-frying shaped items (such as the potato chicken lollipops, nuggets, or hot dog roll), freezing them beforehand helps maintain their structure in hot oil.
Watch the rice cooker beef cooking time closely to avoid overcooking the center past medium-rare.
