Sweet & Sticky BBQ Fajitas
For the Sauce
Advertisement
1 small onion (chopped), 3 cloves garlic (crushed), olive oil, 1 tsp fajita spice blend, 55g dark brown sugar, 50ml dark soy sauce, 300ml tomato ketchup, salt & pepper.
For the Fajitas
320g chicken breast (diced medium chunks), 1 red pepper (sliced), 1 yellow pepper (sliced), 1 small onion (sliced), olive oil, tortilla wraps, 150g cheese (grated).
METHOD
Fry the onion and garlic in olive oil with the fajita spice and sugar. Add the soy sauce and ketchup and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil and simmer for a few minutes to combine the flavours.
METHOD
Fry the chicken in olive oil until it’s changed to white, add your peppers and onions and fry gently. Add your BBQ sauce to the mixture and stir to ensure everything is coated. Once the chicken has cooked through it’s ready to serve in Tortilla Wraps with grated cheese.
INGREDIENTS
320g Spaghetti, 3 egg yolks, 150g parmesan, 150g pancetta, 2 garlic cloves (crushed), ½ tsp chilli flakes ½ tsp oregano, olive oil, salt & pepper.
METHOD
Get a saucepan with boiling water and start to cook spaghetti. Heat a sauté pan with olive oil and garlic, you want it to go golden in colour for a nutty flavour. Add the pancetta and cook off for a couple of minutes. Once your pasta is cooked add the pasta to the pancetta, keeping the water to one side. This is liquid gold and will build your sauce. Add the chilli mix and cheese, then take ladles of your pasta water to coat the pasta. Once the cheese has cooked out, remove from the heat and add the yolk mixture stirring like your coffee. Serve.
Pink Berry Shake
INGREDIENTS
Cranberry & raspberry tea, 100ml boiled water, 100ml coconut milk, dash caramel syrup, ice, frozen berries.
METHOD
Brew the cranberry & raspberry tea in boiled water. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and coconut milk and the caramel syrup. Give it a good shake for 10/20 seconds. Serve with frozen berries in a tall glass.

MADE FOR MUSIC
Wendy Toner had just set up the community choir ‘Made for Music’ in January 2020. It was set up to help everyone ’s mental health and wellbeing and was open to all but especially those suffering from loneliness or anxiety.
Due to Corona virus they had to close the doors in March 2020 until October 2021 when they could set up again safely.
Now they are back and meeting regularly, they have around 30 plus regular attendees to the choir who meet at Elgin City football club every Wednesday from 7pm till 9pm.
Wendy said “Our youngest member is 16, and our oldest is well, just say she won’t see 65 again. Not only has singing become the tool for connection, but the project has also become supportive to all members, inclusive and inter-generational.”
“When I arranged an initial public meeting to gauge interest, I had no idea so many people were struggling with loneliness, anxiety etc and this was pre covid. lockdown and isolation, and we really hope more continue to join us.”
“The choir choose the music, they have ownership over their group, which is essential to create relationships and belonging.
Can sing, can’t sing, it doesn’t matter, it’s here for the joy of singing and laughing together.
We have recently been asked by the local Rotary to sing for the Jubilee, the choir are delighted after such a short space of time in operation.”
The choir is so much fun, and they make new members feel very welcome.
Please check out our Made For Music Moray Facebook page for more information.
“A fun choir with great laughs. If you have ever had a hard day then this is the best therapy. You leave feeling de-stressed and happy. Would highly recommend to anyone who likes to sing even if it’s for fun!”
“Love Wednesday nights, great people singing great songs and having lots of laughs along the way. Cannot recommend our Choir enough.”
