Can you help? Edith ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Mar 1997 13:41:02 +0530 From: Nancy Gandhi <gandhi@GIASMD01.VSNL.NET.IN> Subject: Re: Request Samosas Here's the way my Punjabi next-door neighbour taught me to make samosas. If it looks vague, it's because I wrote it down as she was doing it! You can add some cooked peas if you like. The method for making the dough is a little different: usually you just roll it out, stuff it and fry it. In this method it's partially pre-cooked, which means that it soaks up less oil in the deep-frying. This is a variety of samosa that keeps for a long time. People take them along on long train journeys, where there's no refrigeration. Feel free to ask me, if you have any questions. Nancy in Madras Samosas Filling: 1 lb. potatoes 1 Tblsp. coriander seeds 2 tsp. salt 8 cloves 1 Tblsp. anise 4 brown cardamoms 20 peppercorns 3 white cardamom pods 2 sticks cinnamon 1 tsp. black jeera 1 1/2 tsp. cumin seeds 1 Tblsp. dried pomegranate seeds pinch of nutmeg 2-3 dried red chillies 1 tsp. asafoetida 1/2 inch piece dried ginger oil for frying Steam or boil potato until done, but not too soft. Cut into small pieces and partly mash. Some larger pieces should remain. You should figure on about a rounded cup of potatoes for 10 samosas. Grind all spices coarsely except asafoetida and salt. Grind pomegranate seeds fine. Heat a little oil in a frying pan until it's quite hot, add the asafoetida and let it sizzle for half a minute or so, add the ground spices and salt, fry them until the smell rises. Add the potatoes and fry until the mixture is dry. Add the pomegranate paste. Fry until it's even drier. Let cool. Dough: 1 1/2 cup white flour 3-4 table-tsp. oil 1/2 tsp. salt enough water to make soft dough Mix the flour, salt and water together and knead for about 5 minutes. The dough should be soft, elastic, not sticky. It will barely stick to your fingers, but releases easily. Mold the dough into walnut-sized balls, and roll each one out in a thin, flat circle, as for chappati. Rub a little oil on top, sprinkle with flour, put another chappati on top, and continue in the same way until 5 chappatis are stacked. Heat a heavy tawa or griddle over a low flame. Gently use a rolling pin to roll all 5 chappatis together, they become larger and flatter, but the separate layers can still be seen. Put the layered chappati on the griddle, cook on low heat until it's slightly tan in color - don't flip it. Remove it from the heat, cut the edges to make a big square, cut the square to make 2 rectangles, and carefully separate the layers. (broken bits and edges can be deep-fried as a snack). Mix a little flour and water to make a paste. Form rectangles of dough into a cone, with one corner pointing up. Fill with potato mixture, fold down the standing corner, seal with paste, deep fry. (first drop bits of dough into the hot oil if they rise and foam, the oil is ready) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Mar 1997 06:51:07 EST From: Victor Fiorillo <c62op27@IBX.COM> Subject: Stovetop Smoker/ CIA Faves Allow me to welcome myself back to the list after a medium hiatus. I was given the CIA ckbk for my bday this week. Any favorite recipes from this book that I should try this wkend? Also, I was watching Taste w/ D.Rosengarten on TVFood several weeks ago when he was preparing Jerk Pork (or chicken?). He used a stovetop smoker that he said was manufactured by ______________ in Washington State. The device seemed to be a contraption with water in the bottom, then hickory chips, then a container with your food, then a lid that made everything sealed in and smokeable. The device was suspended over the range with 4 legs. Does anyone have any information on this device... where can it be obtained?

This has been a standard in our family for years. We make it with Stove Top stuffing and cream of mushroom soup. Make the stuffing mix and let cool. I think you use about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds ground beef or turkey. Make into thin hamburger patties, about 1" more in diameter than usual. Put a scoop of stuffing in the middle and wrap the hamburger around to completely enclose the stuffing. (You need to really wet the surface you are working on so that the meat doesn't stick to it. A spatula also helps to release the meat from the cutting board). Do this until all your meet is used up. Put one layer of burger bundles in a 5 qt dutch oven (or some similar size pan). Mix one can of mushroom soup and 1/2 can of water. Pour a little over the first layer of bundles, put another layer of bundles down and pour the rest of the soup mixture over. If you have left over stuffing sprinkle this between the layers. Bake in a 350 degree oven (covered) for 1 hour and 15 minutes. They're delicious! I'm sure you could substitute spaghetti sauce or tomato soup for the mushroom soup. In fact, I think I'll try spaghetti sauce.

It's perfect with a tall glass of iced tea on a hot summer day - or with a hot cup of tea in the middle of winter if you prepare the minced basil and butter and freeze in cookie batch amounts at the end of the summer. Enjoy! Lemon Basil Cookies (Adapted from Martha Stewart's Sugar Cookie Recipe, MSL February '96) 4 cups sifted all-purpose flour 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 2 sticks unsalted butter 2 cups sugar 2 large eggs 2 tsp vanilla extract 2 tsp fresh lemon (or lime) juice zest of 2 lemons (or limes) 1-2 Tbs finely minced lemon basil Sift together flour, salt and baking powder and set aside. In mixer, cream butter and sugar till fluffy. Beat in eggs. Add flour mixture and mix on low till thoroughly combined. Stir in vanilla, lemon juice, zest and basil. Roll dough into two logs and chill for 30 minutes. Slice cookies approx 1/4 inch thick and bake at 325 approx 15 minutes, till slightly brown around the edges. Frost with lemon/lime glaze - see below. This part isn't very specific. I just mix small amts fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice with powdered sugar until smooth and spreadable. Spread on cookies. Get some tea and enjoy! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Mar 1997 16:58:41 -0500 From: Pat Perreault <pat-len@WEBTV.NET> Subject: Re: homemade mincemeat, recipe from The Household search light recipe book dtd. l93 6 2 lbs lean beef or veal chopped 4 lbds apples 2 1/2 lbs raisens 4 cups br.sugar 1/2 tsps cloves 1 1/2 tsp.nutmeg 1/2 cup molasses grape juice, cider, or water 1/2 pound suet ground, 11/2 pounds currents 1/4 pound citron,ground, 1 1/2 tsps cinnamon 1 tsp. mace 2 tsp. salt.

I tried them for the first time at my friends house. Hers were made with mozzarella cheese. I have made them with leftover cooked chicken and canned salmon. They are both delicious. My husband likes them patted very thin so they are crispy. I don't use a deep fryer but fry them in a small amount of oil in a high sided saute pan. Jean CROQUETAS -- -- Croquettes 3 T oil or butter (I use olive oil) 1/2 small onion, minced 4 T flour 14 liter milk -- a little over a half pint 1/8 tsp grated nutmeg 1/2 tsp salt 400 gms. finely chopped cooked chicken, ham, tuna or fish or vegies 2 eggs, beaten with a little water 200 g fine bread crumbs oil for frying Heat the oil or butter and saute the onions til transparent. Do not let them brown. Stir in the flour and let it cook briefly, then whisk in milk. Cook, stirring constantly until this sauce thickens. Season it with nutmeg, salt and pepper. Stir in the cooked and chopped filling -- any choice of meat, fish or vegetables can be used as long as they are well drained of all liquid. Spread this mixture in a dish and refrigerate it until solid. Place the beaten eggs in a dish, the breadcrumbs in another. With moistened hands, form the croquette mixture into balls, cylinders or cones. Dip each croquette first in breadcrumbs (or flour), then in beaten egg, then again in breadcrumbs, taking care that they are well covered. Allow to dry in a cool place for 30 minutes. Heat oil in deep fryer and fry the croquettes, a few at a time, until golden -- about 3 minutes. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Mar 1997 13:49:00 -0800 From: Stephanie Miles <Stephanie_Miles@UCSDLIBRARY.UCSD.EDU> Subject: Re[2]: Recipe Needed I e-mailed this recipe to him and he says we're getting close, but the chips are stirred in, rather than melted on top.

Frye" <shfrye@PEN.K12.VA.US> Subject: Re: HELP for Easter Kris, I don't have the recipe for this Easter goody, but I wish I did, so maybe some wonderful soul out there has this. Last Easter one of my students brought me a basket of home-made goodies. One of the things in it was a concoction that looked like a little nest. I know it had marshmallows, coconut, and green food coloring. There was an indentation to look like a nest, and it had three jelly beans in it (jelly bellies, no less..) This would be great for your preschoolers, packed in the snack-sized zip lock bags. Does anyone have a recipe for this? It was almost too pretty to eat, but I did anyway, and it was delicious.
