| 53 | Baked Nacho's
2 tins of kidney beans
1 tin of Watties Mexican Chilli beans mild
1 tin of watties savoury tomatoes
1 tin of budget chopped tomatoes
1 tin of pineapple peices (this is very optional, my kids love pineapple so I add it)
1 packet of taco seasoning (vegetarian)
1 large packet of corn chips
grated cheese for teh top Mix the above ingredients (apart from the corn chips and the cheese) together in a pot on the stove and heat until it is just simmering. Put the corn chips in a lasagna baking dish and pour the bean mixture over the top. Cover in grated cheese and bake at 180 for 20 minutes or so until the cheese is starting to brown. This makes a lot, enough for 6 people, you could stretch it out to do two meals easily if you served it with rice and a side salad. I normally make a guacamole out of mashed avacado, garlic and lemon juice to serve on top. I prefer this to sour cream but others like it as well as sour cream :) Great dish when you have unexpected visitors arrive and need to feed a lot of people.

2 cups pecan meal (you can use other nuts if pecans are too expensive, I sometimes use walnuts or even cashews)
1 cup of cottage cheese (the one with chives is nice)
1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
1 large onion, chopped fine
8 eggs
1 cups fresh bread crumbs
1 cup of dried bread crumbs
1 tsp sage
salt to taste (½ to 1 tsp) Mix everything together and let sit for 15 minutes to firm up. Once firm you can make into meatball shapes. Spray the meatballs with cooking oil spray and bake in the oven. I normally mix them through pasta sauced or even a can of tomato soup poured over them in a casserole dish and baked until the soup is bubbling. ferita - 2010-06-06 15:09:00 |

| 70 | Paneer Makhani (Paneer butter Marsala) By chef in you. I havent tried this ...YET, but it is on my to do list Ingredients – Serves 4 2 generous cups Paneer cubes
1 large onion,chopped coarsely
3 tbsp butter
1/2 – 3/4 cups tomato puree *
2-3 green chillies, as per taste **
3-4 cloves garlic
2 inch ginger, peeled and chopped
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp cumin-coriander powder
1 tsp Tandoori masala
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup cashew paste and 8-9 raisins ( optional. Use them if making Shahi Paneer – soak few cashew pieces in boiling water and grind)
1/4-1/2 cup heavy cream (as needed for consistency)
salt to taste Method in a skillet in 1/2 tsp oil, add the onion, chillies, garlic and ginger with a little salt. Saute until soft.
Transfer this mixture to the blender and blend it into a paste.
In the same skillet, add 3 tbsp of butter and then add the onion paste. Cook until butter/oil separates. If using cashew Paste add it along with this mixture now. or you can soak the cashew pieces in hot water and grind it along with the onion mixture.
Add the tomato puree and all the spices. Stir well and cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the raw smell of the puree disappears. Add sugar and cook for another 5 minutes. You can at this point taste and see if you require additional salt. If yes, add more.
Drop in the paneer gently and give it a toss. Cook for another 2-3 minutes for the paneer to absorb the flavors.
Lower the heat to a simmer. Then add the heavy cream. Mix well.
If you want to use raisins, fry them lightly in ghee/butter separately and add it to this gravy. You can set some aside for garnish. I don’t like sweet things in savory dishes and hence don’t use them. Be careful to cook this in simmer before adding cream. Otherwise the heat will give it a curdle appearance!
You can garnish it with mint and cilantro if desired. Mint and cilantro to garnish ***
* I find that home made Puree is the best. But if going for store bought ones go for low sodium variety. If that’s not available then use only about 1/2 cup of the puree and carefully add salt only if required. Sometimes the store bought ones give a deep tangy taste to this dish if not careful with the salt since the puree by itself has lots of sodium ** You can instead use cayenne/red chilli powder. Sometimes when I don’t have green chillies on hand I use dried red chillies like in this dish. Doesn’t hurt the taste. *** I personally find that Mint goes very well with rich dishes and gives it that fresh taste and reducing the rich after taste in the mouth. A combination of the herbs is my personal favorite where it helps to mellow down the richness. Edited by ruby19 at 11:29 am, Mon 7 Jun ruby19 - 2010-06-07 11:28:00 |
| 71 | Tomato Paella
Serves 4 to 6
Tomato Paella By Mark Bitman
3 cups water
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes, cored and cut into thick wedges
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, minced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon tomato paste
Large pinch saffron threads
1-2 teaspoons Spanish pimentón (I just used 1 tsp and it was plenty)
2 cups Spanish or other short-grain rice
Minced parsley and basil for garnish 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Warm water in a saucepan. Put tomatoes in a medium bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and drizzle them with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat. 2. Put remaining oil in a 10- or 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, saffron if you are using it, and paprika and cook for a minute more. Add rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is shiny, another minute or two. Add wine and let simmer until it is mostly absorbed, then add the hot water and stir until just combined. 3. Put tomato wedges on top of rice and drizzle with juices that accumulated in bottom of bowl. Put pan in oven and roast, undisturbed, for 15 minutes. Check to see if rice is dry and just tender. If not, return pan to oven for another 5 to 10 minutes. If rice looks too dry but still is not quite done, add a small amount of stock or water (or wine). When rice is ready, turn off oven and let pan sit for 5 to 15 minutes. 4. Remove pan from oven and sprinkle with parsley and basil. If you like, put pan over high heat for a few minutes to develop a bit of a bottom crust before serving. ruby19 - 2010-06-07 11:36:00 |

| 86 | Eggless loaf - the cashew loaf I posted above is egg free and holds together well. Dont have the mixture too wet, adjust the breadcrumbs if necessary but I dont have a problem. Leave it in the tin for 5-10 minutes. By pressing gently on the top you will tell if it is cooked properly. It is a really nice loaf, give it a try. |

| 88 | Black-eyed bean croquettes. courtesy of Sarah Brown 225g Black-eyed beans, soaked overnight
100g fresh breadcrumbs
50g ground Brazil nuts
100g cheese, grated
1 clove garlic, crushed
1tsp marjoram
1tsp dried sage
salt and pepper Coating
1 egg white, beaten
flour or breadcrumbs
salt and pepper oil for shallow frying. Drain the beans. Cover with fresh water, bring to boil and boil fast for 10mins. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 35-40 mins or until tender.
I'm lazy and do this next bit in the food processor.
Drain the beans again and mash them. Mix with all the other ingredients and season to taste. The mixture should be quite moist.
I add a little water if I feel its too dry. Chill for an hour or two until firm.
Shape into croquettes or patties or meatballs. Dip first into beaten egg and then into seasoned flour or breadcrumbs.
Shallow fry for 4-5 mins each side. For anyone not wanting to use egg you could dip into milk or water before rolling in the flour or breadcrumbs. cgvl - 2010-06-09 09:02:00 |
| 89 | Another of Sarah Brown's: Mushroom and aduki croquettes.
again the egg is only used in the coating so could easily be left out or substituted.
I make these using parsley rather than chilli and cumin but try them both ways. Recipe says also good with herbs, such as parsley or coriander, instead of spices. 175g aduki beans, soaked overnight
30ml (2Tbsp) olive oil
350g mushrooms chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1-2 dried chilli peppers, deseeded and diced
1tsp ground cumin
30ml (gm) (2Tbsp) wholewheat flour ( I use whatever I have in the house)
salt and pepper Coating
1small egg, beaten
75gm fine oatmeal (or breadcrumbs) Drain the beans. Cover with fresh water, bring to boil and boil fast for 10mins. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 35-40 mins or until tender. Drain and set aside.
Heat oil in a large pan and gently fry mushrooms, garlic, chilli and cumin for 5-6 mins or until mushrooms are very soft.
Sprinkle over the flour. Continue cooking over a low heat, stirring the flour in well, for 2-3 mins. Off the heat, mix in the beans and season well. The consistency should be soft but not sloppy. Chill for several hours or overnight.
Shape, dip into egg then oatmeal. fry in hot oil for 4-5 mins each side. Serve hot. I often do a double batch of beans when making any of these patties. half I freeze, it saves time later when wanting to make them again. cgvl - 2010-06-09 09:15:00 |

| 94 | Hi deus701, I agree to the adding pumpkin, I do add pumpkin sometimes, roasted wtih a good sprinkling of rasel el houte (sp), also add cubed feta, Yum. You can also add that filling to filo pastry to make pies, the kids love it! Edited by ruby19 at 7:51 pm, Wed 9 Jun ruby19 - 2010-06-09 19:50:00 |
