I don't think I'm balding or passionate enough about red wine to consume a whole bottle whilst cooking a meal.
Nup I think that womans day would be a bit p'd off if I did and aunty beeb doesn't really like blatant commercialism unless you count the wiggles and the recent elmo formatted episodes of sesame street, I'd prefer to see Barkley hiding behind the trees to the statue of liberty shaking her booty and elmo watching TV.
Truth be known I used this thread to bump up my status to beautiful shark by posting recipe's that I thought people might enjoy using womans day's recipe finder.
Except for the hangover remedy that is mine definately mine, most other people generally acknowledge it as one of my more disgusting habits.

"Goon of fortune"
A fun way to get drunk! ;D
Buy 4 casks of wine,
Remove all four goonbags from their boxes
Tie each one to a separate pole of your clothesline
gather some friends and group them in a circle around the clothesline now spin the clothesline.
Whomsoever the goonbag stops in front of must consume it lying in the lawn under their goon bag.

Back2U- I had my doubts about you, but that post has dramatically altered my perception of you - in short, you are a fucking genuis. Innovation like that is what makes the human spirit great - I am proud of you.

Oh I have a recipe that is worthy of this thread!
It's for lazy people who want yummy food but can't be arsed to take care in cooking it.....
You'll Need (for a single serving):
1 cup of rice (uncooked)
1.5 cups of water
a pinch of salt
a teaspoon of magarine
one sachet of a cup-a-soup thingo*
*Nb: Any flavour ya want I guess, but I recommend Laksa or seafood laksa or anything that is creamy. ie. Vegie soup is no good
Alrighty, I cook the rice using the absorbtion method which is as follows:
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Chuck in the rice, salt and the water. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to lowish (low or 2 as per my oven). Cook on low heat for 12-15 mins. Allow to sit covered for a further 5.
Okay, when the rice is cooked, add a packet of the soup mix you prefer (seriously, try the laksa!)...
obviously if ya have left over rice just add the soup mix and a bit of water
mix and eat....yumm

Well here is a great recipe for breakfast or brunch. I particularly like it cause its great to have when your going to sloth around all day  This is how i cook it, i dont have a set time for it i just use the time it takes to cut the onions and toast the toast to dictate the time needed for the Hot Pot to cook through. Ingredients: Tinned Whole peeled tomatoes Ground oregano Passley flakes 2-4 bacon rashes cut into medium sized strips. Medium onion or handfull of onion flakes Four Slices of bread Method: In a medium saucepan, tip the tinned tomatoes and liguid in and use a wooden spoon to mash them up into quaters. fill half the tin with water and put it into the sausepan. Bring to boil with medium heat. Shake in oregano and passley till it is spead over the top of the liquid. Add bacon pieces. Let the saucepan cook while you slice an onion into thin slices and pop the rings out and put them into the saucepan. Stir it all around and let it gently bubble away. Now toast your toast using two bits at a time if your lucky enough to have a four slice toaster. Once all the toast is done the hot pot is ready. I love to eat it using the toast cut in half to scoop the hotpot up. Its the best feed i hope you like it. |

"Today...modern art is beginning to lose its powers of negation. For some years now its rejections have been ritual repetitions: rebellion has turned into Procedure, criticism into rhetoric, transgressions into ceremony. Negation is no longer creative. I am not saying that we are living the end of art: we are living the end of the idea of modern art"- Octavio Paz

Making vegan sweet things that taste good is quite difficult, my family members try quite often and they are edible but umm sometimes you think twice before having it. The best vegan desert is if you can get your hands on a Champion Juicer and freeze fruit like mango, banannas, pineapple, strawberry and passionfruit. You put the said fruit through the machine and it comes out like a creamy sorbet type of ice cream it freakin rocks.
Or we often have fruit cakes, you just take a standard cake recipe, instead of eggs put in egglike powder, instead of milk use soy milk, if your trying to avoid sugar and honey you can buy a natural sweetener called Stevia which is this concentrated herb or root or something.

Hmph. This is a dish that i've cooked a lot for myself recently. Just so yummy. Let me make up a name for it...
Warm chicken with salsa and yoghurt salad
Ingredients (for 1 person)
100g breast chunks
1/4 red capsicum
1 tomato
mushrooms (optional)
parmesan (optional)
fetta (optional)
garlic
basil
oil, vinegar
greek/natural yogurt
1/3 spanish onion
mixed lettuce
Ok so chicken...
just pan fry it in small breast chunks. If you want to try something not that complicated, put the pieces in a plastic bag with that fine cheap parmesan stuff and shake til it's coated and cook it like that. Hmm cheeeesy. (That's Lou's mum's recipe; just so I dont take credit for it)
Salsa
Just somehting I made up. Pan fry about 1/4 of a red capsicum (cubed in 1cm pieces) with a bit of garlic until it goes black and nice and sweet. You can also cook some mushrooms at this stage if you want. I do that occasionally.
Chop up 1 tomato into the same size cubes and mix that in with some balsamic and salt.
Chop up the spanish onion into v. small pieces and add to the tomato.
Very finely chop up a few basil leaves and add to tomato and onions.
Add the cooked capsicum to the tomato, onions and basil.
Prepare mixed salad in the bowl, put the salsa on top of that. If you want some fetta, put some chunks around now. Then put the chicken on top.
Dressing
Then with a mortar and pestil (or if you can't be fucked just chop finely) smush some more basil and add it to about 3 tablespoons of the yogurt. That's the dressing. Maybe some garlic as well.
Anyway. Yum.
I'm going to have a variation of that for dinner. But I'm going to have corgette instead of capsicum and with avocado because that's whats int he fridge. Yum.

Gyoza
I saw Jamie Oliver making these a couple of weeks ago for when he had the two japanese girls come over. I tried making them the other night, and they were surprisingly easy to make and and they rocked hard.
You just buy the Gyoza wrappers from any asian supermarket, i think theres like 25 to 30 in a packet and it costs about $1.
Making Gyoza
Ingredients:
1/2 cup thinly chopped cabbage / Chinese cabbage
2 tbsps chopped green onion
250-300g minced chicken or pork
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sugar
2 tsps soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
25 gyoza wrappers
vegetable oil for frying
Dipping Sauce:
2 tbsps soy sauce/ 2 tbsp vinegar / 1 tsp hot pepper oil
How to Cook:
1. Boil chopped cabbage or Chinese cabbage for a few minutes and drain well.
2. Squeeze the cabbage to remove excess water.
3. Combine pork, green onion, cabbage, and seasonings in a bowl.
4. Mix all ingredients well by hands.
5. Place a teaspoonful of the meat filling in the center of a gyoza wrapper. (don't overfill)
6. Put water along the edge of the wrapper.
Make a semicircle, gathering the front side of the wrapper and sealing the top. Make sure pastry is sealed tight so it won't open up.
7. Heat oil in a frying pan.
8. Place gyoza in the pan and fry on high heat for a minute until the bottoms become brown. Its important to use a non stick pan and having electric hot plates rather than gas makes life a little more difficult.
9. Add 1/3 cup water in the pan.
10. Cover the pan with a lid and steam the gyoza on medium heat until water is gone. (You don't need to turn the gyoza over.)
11. Serve gyoza with dipping sauce on the side.
