yes I am doing an "over blog " today....  but its been a busy week and so had to catch up.

We have  been replacing eating beef (high cholestrol) with ostrich and I have to admit..  its just as good and definitely healthier on the waistline !. This  is another one for those on the run and in need to have dinner ready from start to finish in less than 30 minutes..Wink


OSTRICH PAPRIKA GOULASH

1 pkt Ostrich stewing pieces
1 can tomatoe with chilli
1 can baked beans
2 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 large onion chopped
2 garlic chopped
Couple of dashes steak flavouring (any kind will do)
½ bottle red wine for the pot…
Olive Oil
Brown meat in very hot pan
Add the onion and garlic and fry until onions are “glassy”
Add everything else on the list
Cook for 15 to 20 minutes

And that’s it ! quick, easy and non fat, low glycemic due to the baked beans and so very very healthy !!!

Serve with mash or if in a hurry microwave a couple of potatoes and serve them underneath the goulash.

Preserved Green Figs

Image
Its that time of the year again..  My  green fig tree is laden with fruit. Unfortunately its not one of those kid of figs that have the juice inside, no its a fig purely created for making preserves. So here I go again. My first batch is 4kg which should make lots of nice pressies for family and friends. What will be different this year is that thanks to Pink the figs that turned brownish last year when cooked.. this year they have turned out in their natural glorious GREEN ! The magic potion she remembered from her gran was Vitrioel  which my man from the chemist told me is Copper Sulphate (reminding me of when your hair used to turn green in the swimming pool) 2 kg firm, ripe green figs ( leave the short stem on) 2 tbsp slaked lime 3.5 ltr cold water 2.5kg sugar 1 stick cinnamon lemon juice of about 3 to 4 large lemons (I left the pips in for a bit of pectin) Knife tip of copper sulphate to add during the boiling in order to keep the fig colour green Cut a cross ...

Tandy's challenge this week are cookies.:)  Seeing that I am not baking at the moment, I still wanted to post some of my dearest childhood memories. I grew up just outside Basel /Switzerland. The 2 months before Christmas was always a hectic baking time at our home. My granny went into overdrive to bake the traditional Swiss Christmas cookies in ginormous quantities. I have rewritten 3 of her most famous  recipes for this first posting and will do another 3 next time. I sourced the photographs of the internet.  Basler Leckerli (Basel cookies) These are the very famous bisquits which are sold all year round in Basel  here first the original recipe:)     Ingredients for two medium size baking sheets: 450 g honey 300 g sugar 1½ tbs  cinnamon 1 pinch of clove powder ½ tsp of nutmeg 100 g  chopped candied orange peel 100 g  chopped candied lemon peel 200 g  ground almonds Grind skin of one lemon 2 t...

Rissoni & Spring Vegies

Image
We just love  fresh new spring vegetables and recently only discovered Rissoni ( that's pasta that looks like rice) I must say that these wonderful little "corns" of pasta have me totally sold ! So yesterday with spring not playing ball and it really not being a day for a braai, I had to  instead of making  a spring vegie salad to go with the meat,  make something that was more comfort food for a cold and rainy day ! This is what I used : Green beans (blanched) thinly sliced courgettes very young green asparagus 1 cup of baby peas 1/2 packet Rissoni pasta about 3 Tbsp butter Cook the pasta al dente, stirfry the vegies ( not too long please). Add the rissoni and butter and that's it !  just some salt and pepper.. and it tastes devine ! I guess this same mix could also be turned into a wonderful salad with a "gentle" vinaigrette/
