500g mince

Chicken Sausage Rolls August 9, 2009

Ingredients:
1 chicken breast
1 carrot
1 zucchini
1 tin (drained and rinsed) lentils
1 clove garlic
1 tb dried basil
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp curry powder
Bread (about 3 crust slices – the crust is better because it is less soft/moist, you don’t want the mixture too moist or your sausage rolls can ooze)

Method:
Chuck that all in a food processor and blend until it makes a sausage mince consistency. Cut a sheet of pastry in half, a spoon the mixture out to make a line down the side of one half of the pastry sheet (about as thick as a thin sausage), roll the pastry over, and cut it into sections to make sausage rolls. Bake at around 200ºC for about 15 mins or until pastry has browned.

Pastry Pizzas June 14, 2009

These are simple and make great party food.  Just take sheets of frozen puff pastry, spread with tomato paste or pesto, add toppings and bake!

Simple toppings work best,  because the pastry is thin you can’t have too much topping.  Try:

• Ham, cheese & tomato paste (with olives or pineapple on top)
• Basil or olive pesto with cheese
• basil pesto with ham, cheese, mushrooms & olives

You can cut the pastry into shapes before adding toppings if you like.

Pizza Dough June 7, 2009

(makes 2-3 large thin pizzas, or perhaps 1 large thick crust one)

Ingredients:
3 cups plain flour
1 tb dry yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
3 tb olive oil
1cup warm water

Method:
In a heatproof large bowl, mix all the ingredients together to combine. Knead in the bowl until mixture is all together.

Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes until the dough is smooth. Form into a ball

Rub/spray the inside of the bowl with oil, and place the dough ball back into the bowl. Cover with a damp teatowel and leave it to rise for an hour somewhere warm. It should double in size

If you don’t have somewhere warm (I’m guessing about 30ºC would be good?), turn the oven on for a moment to get it to a nice warm temp, then turn the oven off and place the bowl in there. You could also put the bowl on the top/mantle of a fireplace, or even in a sink of hot water

Once doubled, take dough out and punch it to remove air. Break into 1-2 pieces and roll out to desired thickness. Place on your pizza tray.

Top with your fave pizza toppings, and bake 220ºC for 20 minutes or 250°C for 10 – 15 minutes.

Herb & Corn Yorkshire Puddings May 16, 2009

Ingredients:
1 cup Self Raising Flour
1 egg 1 cup milk
pinch salt
Pinch mixed herbs (or use spring onions, basil etc.)
1/2 cup corn

 
Method:
1). Mix the ingredients together and beat well to remove any lumps.
2). Spray/grease the insides of a muffin tray.
3). Place the muffin tray in the oven for about a minute, then bring it out and pour the pudding batter into the muffin spaces (makes 12).
4). Bake at 180ºC for about 15 mins, until the tops are golden.

 
Personally I think these are best served hot with gravy and mint sauce (either as part of a roast meal, or on their own) But they can be eaten cold if you’re packing them as a lunchbox filling.

Potato and Lentil Patties May 2, 2009

(large “Ball” patties)

Ingredients:

For the patties:
1 tin lentils
4 cups (approx) boiled/steamed potato
1/2 cup corn
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp mixed herbs
1 tsp salt
6 rashers rindless/shortcut bacon (optional)

For breadcrumbs:
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs (approx)
2 tb parmesan cheese
2 tb mixed herbs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp lemon pepper

Method:
Mash the potato with milk until very smooth and creamy. Chop and fry the bacon, then add all the patties ingredients together and mix well. Mix the breadcrumb mix together in a dish. Form the potato mixture into patties or balls (I find balls easier to work with) and coat with the crumbs. Spray a baking tray with olive oil, lay out the patties and spray the tops. Bake at 180ºC for about 20 mins.

Curried Beef Pie December 13, 2008

Ingredients:
Puff Pastry sheets
Beef mince
Gravy powder
Milk powder
Rice
Corn
Carrot
Potato
Dried herbs (or fresh if you have them)
2 teaspoons Curry Powder
Ground Cardamon
Ground Coriander seeds
1/2 cup grated low fat cheese

 

Method:
1). Get your frozen pastry out and let it defrost while you make the filling.
2). Put a saucepan on the heat and add the mince (no oil). Fry this until brown. Drain off the excess oil if there is any. Add 2 teaspoons of curry powder and fry for a few moments.
3). Add your corn, potato (cut into really small pieces) and carrot (I cut my carrot into slices, then cut each slice into quarters, so it cooks quicker), and about a handful of rice (depending on how much mince you used). The rice helps to give it substance, soaks up the liquid (and stretches the mix further!).
4). Put about a tablespoon of gravy powder in a coffee mug, fill with water, mix and add this to the pot. Add more water if needed to just cover the ingredients. Add about 1/2 a teaspoon each of coriander and cardamon, and about 2 teaspoons of dried herbs.. If you like, you can add some milk powder dissolved in water to make a slightly creamier pie filling. I use about 3 tablespoons milk powder in 1/2 cup water. You could use actual milk, but powdered milk gives more milk and less liquid.
5). Simmer this until the rice is getting soft. Add cheese and mix well.
6). When the mince mix is cooked, allow it to cool (you can use it while still warm, but its best not to be hot because it melts the pastry).
7). Grease your chosen pie making dish (I find the best thing to use is actually a spring form pan. You know those cake tins with the base and sides separate, with a locking thingie to release to let the bottom out…. I find it makes getting the pie out in one piece really easy!). Place the pastry into your dish.
8). Spoon the filling mix into the dish, and put your lid on.
9). You can give the top of the pie a light glazing with milk and a pastry brush (you can add egg to the milk, but it isn’t necessary). Don’t forget to cut an air slit in the pastry lid to allow the steam to escape. Put the pie in the oven to cook.
10).. It should go in a hot oven (about 200C), cook until the pastry is browning. Probably about 20 mins?

Savoury Pastry Tarts December 13, 2008

Vol-au-vents are those pastry things that are like a pastry doughnut with filling in the middle. Normally you either buy Vol-au-vent cases, or make your own. Buying them is easy, but they have a lot of pastry (so are more fattening), and every time I see them in the supermarket, some cases are always broken.. making your own is tedious (to say the least) as you have to cut rings out of pastry and lay them ontop of eachother on one circle) to form the case. This way is a cheater’s way of making a similar thing, that is slightly less fattening as it has less pastry

 
Ingredients – Salmon & Corn:
Puff Pastry sheets
Corn
Garlic
Onion
1 tin smoked salmon (generic brand is fine)
Milk
2 tablespoons (approx) Plain flour
cheese (optional)
Curry powder
Salt and pepper

 
Method:
1). Get your frozen pastry out and let it defrost while you make the filling.
2). Put about 2 tablespoons of flour into a saucepan, and add about 1-2 cups of milk, mix well to remove lumps, and bring this to the boil. It should thicken nicely. Your white sauce shouldn’t be too runny, or when people eat the pies, the filling will oooze out and burn them on the chin…. not nice…
3). Fry garlic an onion until soft.
4). Add the (drained) salmon, corn and Garlic and onion. You can add a touch (1/2 teaspoon) curry powder if you like, and cheese too if you like. Season to taste with the salt and pepper.
5). Allow it to cool (you can use it while still warm, but its best not to be hot).
6). Cut pastry sheets into 9 squares and place each square into a lightly greased muffin tin. The corners will poke up – leave them (it makes little “handles” to hold onto when they are cooked). Fill the pastry cases with the mixture and bake at about 200C for around 15 minutes, until the pastry has cooked.

 
 
Ingredients – Chicken & Mushroom:
Puff Pastry sheets
Garlic
Onion
3 large mushrooms
1 chicken breast (or 3 thighs) cut into very small pieces
Milk
2 tablespoons (approx) Plain flour
cheese (optional)
Salt and pepper

 
Method:
1). Get your frozen pastry out and let it defrost while you make the filling.
2). Put about 2 tablespoons of flour into a saucepan, and add about 1-2 cups of milk, mix well to remove lumps, and bring this to the boil. It should thicken nicely. Your white sauce shouldn’t be too runny.
3). Fry chicken and mushrooms until chicken starts to brown, add garlic an onion, fry until soft.
4). Add the chicken mix to the sauce and cheese too if you like. Season to taste with the salt and pepper.
5). Allow it to cool (you can use it while still warm, but its best not to be hot).
6). Cut pastry sheets into 9 squares and place each square into a lightly greased muffin tin. The corners will poke up – leave them (it makes little “handles” to hold onto when they are cooked). Fill the pastry cases with the mixture and bake at about 200C for around 15 minutes, until the pastry has cooked.

Camembert and Chicken Parcels December 13, 2008

Ingredients:
Puff Pastry sheets
Garlic
Onion
Chicken breast fillets (1 per parcel, or chop this up if making smaller parcels)
Salt and pepper
1/4 to 1/2 wheel Camembert cheese per parcel

 
Method:
1). Get your frozen pastry out and let it defrost while you make the filling.
2). Take the Chicken breast and make a slice lengthwise to create a split in which you can place the cheese.
3). Fry the Garlic and onion and place some into the split you just made. Cut the cheese into slices (good sized ones) and place a slice into the split as well. Season with Salt and Pepper.
4). Cut a Pastry sheet in half, place the chicken in the centre and fold the sides over to cover the chicken and the ends over. Press down to seal well. Cut a slit in the pastry to allow the steam to escape.
5). When your parcels are done, put them on a tray with the seams downwards. Give them a light spray with oil, or brush the pastry gently with a pastry brush and milk (you can add egg, but it isn’t necessary). Put them in the oven to cook. I like to sprinkle sesame seeds on top to look nice…
6). As the chicken needs to cook through, start them off at about 160C, and cook for about 30 mins, then turn up the oven to high and cook until the pastry is browning. Probably about 15 mins more

 
Small Parcels:
1). Get your frozen pastry out and let it defrost while you make the filling.
2). Take the Chicken breast and chop it into small pieces. Fry this with the Garlic and Onion.
3). Cut the pastry into 4 squares. Wet the edges of the squares and place a small spoonful of fried mixture into one corner. Add a slice of the cheese and fold the pastry over into a triangle, and using the prongs on a fork, make a |||||| pattern around the edges. Cut a slit in the pastry to allow the steam to escape.
4). When your parcels are done, put them on a tray. Give them a light spray with oil, or brush the pastry gently with a pastry brush and milk (you can add egg, but it isn’t necessary). Put them in the oven to cook. I like to sprinkle sesame seeds on top to look nice…
5). They should go in a hot oven (pastry needs to cook in a hot oven or it just goes bleerrgh instead of crispy), cook until the pastry is browning. Probably about 10-15 mins, because the chicken is already cooked, so you’re just cooking the pastry.

Vegetable Quiche December 13, 2008

Ingredients:
6 eggs
Spring onions, finely chopped
bacon (2 rashers), chopped
1/4 cup grated cheese
1 teaspoon cornflour
a “splash” of milk
1/4 cup of steamed broccoli
1/4 cup sweet corn
1/4 cup steamed pumpkin
1/4 cup spinach
1 sheet puff pastry
Optional – cooked diced chicken breast

 
Method:
1). Fry the bacon and spring onions. Then leave to cool.
2). Put the cornflour into a coffee mug, add the milk and stir until it is combined. Beat the eggs and milk mix together. Add whatever herbs and spices you like.
3). Add all ingredients together and stir gently, but don’t whisk it! (otherwise you’ll have too much air in the quiche and it will puff up and look bizarre
4). Line a deep flan tin with the pastry (I need to cut some of the overlap off and use it in the areas it doesn’t cover). Add the egg mix. Use a pastry brush to coat any exposed pastry with the filling mix.
5). Put this on the top shelf of the oven and bake until pastry is browned. You might need to turn the oven down towards the end to let the inside set without burning the pastry.

Chicken & Veg Parcels December 13, 2008

This is basically a “freeform pie” – rather than using a pie dish, you just slop the ingredients onto the sheet of pastry and wrap it up.

Ingredients:
3 chicken thighs (skinless)
3 small-medium sized mushrooms
1 clove garlic
1 small onion, finely chopped
Pinch of assorted spices (mixed herbs, cardamon etc.)
1c grated cheese
1/2 cup spinach (I use 2-3 cubes of [defrosted] frozen stuff)
handful of peas and corn
1/2 cup steamed pumpkin
1/4 cup steamed broccoli
1/2 cup steamed eggplant
1 sachet of cream of mushroom cup-a-soup
Sheets of puff pastry

Method:
Fry the meat, onion, garlic and mushrooms. Mix the mushroom cup-a-soup with about 1/2 a cup of water and pour over the meat. Add rest of ingredients together. Make sure your mixture is not too runny.

Scoop the mixture onto a sheet of pastry and fold the corners over to make a sort of envelope.  Make sure the pastry overlaps well so that it will seal and the filling will not leak out.  (You can make 4 small parcels by cutting the pastry into 4, or make one large one from a full sheet)

Then flip it over so the seams are down on a greased tray, and poke an airhole in the top. You can brush the pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds and herbs.

Cook in a hot oven (200ºC ) until the pastry is cooked…. about 15-20 mins.

Carrot & Zucchini Sausage Rolls December 13, 2008

A way to hide a bit of extra veg in to trick the kiddies into eating it.  I got this idea from my Aunt, and it’s brilliant!  the sausage rolls are so much nicer with the carrot and zucchini in them (moist and extra flavour) and you don’t even notice it’s “veg” in there!

Ingredients:
1 large package sausage mince
pastry sheets
1 egg to glaze
1 small zucchini, grated
1 large carrot, grated
1 small onion grated (optional)

1). Mix the meat and vegetables together
2). Cut a pastry sheet into 3rds or halves, and lay a strip of mixture up the sheet close to one edge, then roll over to make a long sausage roll
3). cut into smaller sausage rolls, brush with egg and bake at about 200C for around 15 mins.

Pastry Alternative December 13, 2008

particularly for mini pies and things…. bread!

you can lightly spray muffin tins and cut a slice of bread into a circle a bit bigger than the space in the tin, roll it with a rolling pin, or press it with your fingers to make it flat, then put it in the tin as you would pastry. Put in your filling, and add a top, ot potato or something… and cook as usual.

You can use something like a soy and linseed bread which gives an interesting texture and is better for you than pastry!

Short (Short Crust) Pastry December 13, 2008

Suitable for flans, quiche, apple pies etc.

 
Ingredients:
8oz (1 Cup) Plain Flour
4oz (1/2 cup) Butter
Pinch Salt or 1/4 cup Sugar (Depending on sweet or savoury pastry desired)
Water to mix

 
Method:
1). Rub in flour and butter (That means to add chopped butter to the sifted flour and using your fingertips, rub the flour and butter together until it forms something resembling breadcrumbs). I take this step seriously as the more you rub it in, the lighter your pastry will be.
2). Add sugar if needed, and mix with enough water to form a dough.
3). Knead on a floured board/bench top (If you added too much water, then knead more flour in here).
4). When it is the right consistency, it is ready to use.

Savoury Mince December 13, 2008

Ingredients:
Beef mince
1/2 a small onion – finely chopped
1 small clove of Garlic – finely chopped
peas
corn
gravy powder
carrot – grated
herbs and spices to taste
Mashed potato to serve with

Method:
1). In a saucepan fry the mince (without any oil, just a dry pan) until it has browned. Add the onion and fry until it is soft, then add the garlic and fry until it starts to brown.
2). Add about 2 cups of water, carrot, peas and corn. Plus any spices you want to add. Bring this to the boil
3). In a coffee mug, add about 2 tablespoons of gravy powder and enough water to mix into a paste. Add this to the pot.
4). Simmer this for as long as you like. At least until the carrot is soft. Serve by slopping it on a plate (it will be very liquidy – so if you have those flatter soup bowls, they are perfect) with mashed potato. I like to pour some mint sauce over mine.

If you want to thinken it, add some corn flour. Mix about 2 teaspoons of cornflour with about 2 tablespoons of water and blend well. Add this to the mince mix and bring to the boil. This should thicken.

You can use this as a pie filling, or put it in a baking dish and top with mashed potato and bake until the potato browns.

Chicken & Mushroom Layer Bake December 13, 2008

Ingredients:
Chicken (breasts or thighs)
Bacon
Onion
Potato
Garlic
Mushrooms
Can of cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup
Cheese (optional)
Herbs & Spices to taste

Method:
1). Lightly fry the leek, bacon and garlic.
2). In a baking dish pour enough of the soup to cover the bottom of the dish.
3). Slice the chicken breasts in half along them to make 2 thinner pieces and lay them out on the soup in one layer.  Thighs probably won’t need this as they won’t be as thick
4). Slice the potato (peeled or unpeeled) and lay the slices ontop of the chicken layer in a single layer.
5). Sprinkle a good covering of the fried stuff on top of the potato layer. If you want to have cheese, sprinkle a layer of cheese ontop of this.
6). Slice mushrooms and lay those out in a single layer on the cheese/bacon layer.
7). Then add a thin layer of the soup mix, then lay another layer of sliced potato, followed by another layer of fried stuff, then top more soup to completely cover the top, sprinkle more cheese ontop if you wish.

Cover with foil (or a lid) and bake at about 150C for about 30 mins, then remove the foil/lid and let it cook for another 10-15 mins to crisp the top a little.

Zucchini Slice December 13, 2008

1 cup chopped onion
3 rashers bacon (optional)
2 medium zucchinis, grated
1 carrot, grated
1 cup grated cheese
1 cup Self Raising flour
5 beaten eggs
Salt and pepper to taste

1). Fry onion and bacon (you could add garlic if you like – I would)
2). Combine other ingredients and pour into a greased baking dish.
3). Bake at 180C for 30-40 minutes (Until golden brown on top). Test it like a cake to make sure the insides are not doughy.
