Main Dishes / Peas and bacon« on: December 31, 2010, 11:13:21 am »
Not sure where this recipe should be in, sorry .
Name of Recipe:Peas and bacon Number of People: Ingredients:250 g frozen peas 50 to 100 grams of bacon 1 onion Garlic Pepper 2 MC of water 2 teaspoons of veg stock 2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil Salt to taste Preparation: Chop onion Add all other ingredients MC on 12 to 20 mins heat 100 speed 1 I cook mine for only 10 mins Tips In winter I add lots more water and a few tablespoons of tomato paste and then add some pasta or rice. /Hints: ciao members' comments Katya - We make a similar dish and cook pasta separately for about a minute less than it needs and then let the pasta cook in the peas/bacon for a minute or so to absorb some of the flavour. We serve it with grated parmesan and it makes a nice supper dish so I think it's OK to have this in the mains section. This is my OH's speciality and he hasn't cooked it in the TMX yet - maybe I'll print off this recipe so he can try. 153

Desserts / Basic panna cotta« on: December 29, 2010, 06:22:11 am »
Name of Recipe:Basic panna cotta.
Number of People: Ingredients: 600 mls cream (590 g) 1 cup of sugar (210 g) - Uni advises this can be reduced to 1/2 cup if you prefer it less sweet - JD. 1 tlb of vanilla (15 g) 1 cup of milk 250 mls 3 teaspoons of gelatin Preparation: Pour milk in a bowl (use a pasta bowl) Sprinkle gelatin over milk Add cream, sugar and vanilla in TM bowl Time 9 min Heat 100 Speed 2 Add gelatin and milk to the cream mixture Time 1 min Heat 100 Speed 2 Photos: Tips/Hints:I pour mine in a cappuccino cups or a tall glasses Use more gelatin if you are going to turn it out on to a plate You can add lemon or orange peel in step 1 Suitable for freezing This recipe it so versatile You can add cocoa + orange essences= jaffa White chocolate Kahlua Espresso coffee Anything that takes your fancy Adjust the sugar to taste. Example if you add white chocolate you only need 3/4 cup of sugar My personal favourite is I add a peeled and chopped orange or lemon in the cream mix. on the stove top I would leave to simmer for ½ hour and leave it to infuse over night if possible, or a few hours in the fridge I squash the orange down with a potato masher while still hot You must strain into a jug before you pour into your cup, glass or moulds. Members' comments rubyslippers - I had some cream I wanted to use up last week, so I made this one. I have never had/made panna cotta before. From what I have heard the consistency was perfect. It was a little too sweet for me (it did end up with a little extra sugar in though as I was off with the fairies when I weighed it in Cheesy), so next time I'll try it with less. Herbal - This is a fabulous recipe - thanks! Have made it several times now and it has worked without fail every single time. I've added half a teaspoon more gelatine and they have turned out perfectly after putting them in hot water for about 20 seconds. I've only done vanilla using vanilla bean paste and it's been a hit every time! Lemongrass - For those of you who can't get hold of gelatin powder, you can replace the 3 tsp of powdered gelatin with 6 leaves. Just soften them in cold water for 10 minutes. Keep in mind that gelatin leaves should not be brought to a boil, so make sure you bring down your temperature to 80° before you add the leaves to the bowl. I didn't have enough cream so I used 330ml cream and 300ml milk. It was my first attempt at homemade panna cotta it worked perfectly. Thank you very very much Fundj. PS. I topped it with Raspberry coulis. Unfortunately I don't have the Australian EDC so I improvised : Blitz 200g frozen raspberries, add lemon juice and sugar (80g was too much) Cook 10mn / 80° / speed 3 It was good but felt a bit gritty on the teeth because of the raspberry seeds. MEP - I made this on the weekend using thickened cream (the only type available at the shops at the time). While it was delicious to taste, there was two separate layers - the base layer of milk and the top 3/4 layer of a more creamy consistency. Is this because I used the thickened cream or was it because I put the panna cottas into the fridge straight away without letting it cool down on the bench first? Any comments/advice/thoughts would be most welcomed. Thanks for sharing a fantastically easy recipe. JulieO - I use the little Nestle plastic moulds which I brush with oil before filling, I find these so easy to use. Being flexible you only have to gently squeeze the plastic mould which then loosens the filling and they just plop out onto a plate. DJ - Made a mango version today with things from fridge. 300ml single cream 100 ml double cream Less than 1/2 cup sugar I fresh mango puréed. 1 heaped teaspoon vanilla paste. I cooked these together but got worried when it boiled madly so I stopped and turned the heat off. Added the milk and soaked gelatine and 200 ml fat free yoghurt. Blended well, it almost split so poured into 7 ramekins and chilled. Verdict very good and set well not split at all. DD and I think 2 mangoes would have been better but the men in the house are not fruity people and loved it. So maybe a mango coulis for those of us that want a bit more fruit. Will make again, thanks very much. Suzanne - made this tonight and have it in the fridge for tomorrow it sure tasted delicious so I hope it works, it's my first attempt. 155
