We do them onions on the bbq... they tend for me to cook unevenly... in the oven we get them all done at the same time.. and I like the mashed version..you can add sour cream as the liquid..

FR....

Tal and Greetings,

I was wondering, after a conversation with taboo, if the supermarkets or delis in the states sell mince meat in their meat area? I usually have the mince for a variety of reasons, like adding to lasagna. I have to add about 1.5 kilograms of mince meat to pratically feed me on the lasagna for more than a day....just laughs. I also use the mince for adding to spaghetti and leggos sauce, the ones that you get with the added flavouring of red wine and basil in a jar. Usually I use about 800 grams or so for the mince and spaghetti, for I do like the saying....feed the man meat.

Be well.

Frank Ar.

I'm curious (and a bit leery) about mince meat, is it the same thing that is in mince meat pie?
We do have it in cans and jars here but I've never looked too closely at it lol, I only know about mince meat pies that have raisins in them and that are served at Christmas time. Trying to convert that into something usable in spaghetti or lasagna but it is a tastebud/mental struggle!

Minced meat in the UK is mixed fruit, suet and gooey sugar and is delicious in all those dishes,*I love mince pies*
We also called ground beef "Mince" thats probably where the misunderstanding is
Mincemeat is sugary
Mince is meaty

what you all call mince we called ground meat be it beef pork or whatever...

We dont really use suet in our mincemeat recipes anymore.. its mostly fruit, nuts, peel, brandy etc.

Ah! Thanks Lucy, now I understand why someone would put mincemeat in lasagna.

I was having a tough time imagining lasagna with raisins and that weird stuff that mincemeat pie is made from heh.

Hi, Frank -

I believe what you are calling mince, and adding to such things as lasagne and spaghetti sauce, is what we call ground beef or hamburger. If I'm misunderstanding, hopefully someone else will come along and correct my error.

Grace

debra loves to cook and is glad to see this thread revived...she recently acquired a bread maker and has been having soooooo much fun with it...so fast and easy and good....she tinkered with several recipes and here is an original recipe that she hopes anyone with a machine might enjoy

Hawaiian Bread Ingredients:1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons honey
5 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons butter
4 1/2 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons active dry yeast Directions:Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select Light setting for a 2 pound loaf ....or set to dough cycle and remove after machine does the kneading and shape into rolls, place on a lightly greased cookie sheet, cover and let rise until doubled (about 40 minutes). Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes until golden brown.

hi frank, as a yank and an aus, i can tell you that yes, you can get mince vy easily in the states. in fact they tend to sell it in much larger quantities than we get over here. i believe it tends to be like the lower grade mince over here - as much fat as meat. i could be wrong on that though.

OMG i had some of these and i liked them and i am not a big regular oyster fan! Also, if you ever want innovative and fresh ideas for grilling try the primalgrill.org. This guy has some great ideas and i have a friend who has tried many of his recipes and loves them.

Drunken Sailors
1 cup of your favorite brand of barbecue sauce

For the oysters:

24 large oysters
About 3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
About 3/4 cup freshly grated asiago cheese
A couple of tablespoons of really good tequila

You’ll also need:
A shellfish rack (optional)

Scrub the oyster shells with a stiff brush to remove any grit or mud. Discard any oysters that fail to close when tapped. Shuck the oysters, and place flat on the shellfish rack (if using) or on baking sheets, taking care not to spill the juices.

Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the barbecue sauce over each oyster. Top each oyster with about 1-1/2 teaspoons of the cilantro and 1-1/2 teaspoons of cheese. Sprinkle a few drops of tequila over each oyster.

Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to high.

When ready to cook, place the shellfish rack with the oysters (if using) on the hot grate and grill until the sauce and oyster juices are bubbling and the oysters are cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Or balance the oysters directly on the hot grate. Work in as many batches as necessary to avoid overcrowding the grill. Serve the oysters hot off the grill, with crusty bread for soaking up the juices.

He has a great lobster one also and a lot of cool veggie grilling ideas.

KMS.. it depends on what you buy.. most mince or burger as we call it here.. runs abou 85/15... but you can buy it as low at 80/20 and as high as 95/5 at most grocery stores.. like tescos.. however some larger chains who employ full time meatcutters/butchers will grind it as high as 97/3 ... and of course there are still the occasional small time butcher who will grind it however you like it We get our course ground beef and vension mince to make chili from him though you can occassionally get course ground in the supermarkets as well... We also like low sodium sausage for bangers, brats etc.. its more expensive but worth it in the long run and our local butcher does them for us.

Tal Everyone,

Oh how I love recipes!! Here's one of my favorites it's called squash relish, it's guaranteed to use up a lot of crooked neck squash for you. It's easy and simple to make, and I have had rave reviews on it from everyone who has tasted it thus far.

Squash Relish 12 cups grated squash (I used my blender and chopped it instead, saves time and energy) 4 large grated large onions 4 large sweet peppers, (red) 5 Tblsp salt 2 small jars of chopped pimentos Mix well let stand overnight: Next am drain and rinse well drain and let stand while you mix together: 2-½ cups vinegar 5 cups of sugar 2-½ tsp celery salt (I used celery seed instead) 2 tsp pickling spice (I used 3 instead) 1- ½ tsp turmeric Mix and bring to a boil and boil for 5 min. Remove spice mix from bag, which I just put it into the relish and remove the black balls of clove when I use it. I just put it in there without the bag. Put in squash mixture and boil additional five min stirring frequently as to not burn the bottom, put into jars, they should seal on their own, but I boiled them 10 min to make sure. You can double this as well.
So all you canners out there, get ready for a tasty treat this is a very good recipe given to me by a 94 yr old TX farmer who I consider to be one of the greats. Happy relishing!!

I wish you well,

Terrah

Hi everyone:
I made this for chick weekend this weekend and it was easy and turned out pretty good:
Mahogany glazed "Free Hen":

4 cornish hens (real cheap **** Aldi)
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup sugar
Brine the hens a gallon of water with the salt and sugar added. One hour minimum.
Rinse them and put them on a cookie sheet with a rim.
Mix up:
1/2 cup of soy sauce
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1T fresh grated ginger (or more if you like)
1 clove minced garlic (ditto)
Mix up everything but the hens.
Heat the oven to 350 and baste the hens generously with the sauce. Put them in the oven for about an hour, glazing again about every 10-15 minutes. They come out deep brown and flavorful. Next time I think I will put a garlic clove and a ginger slice in the cavity of the hen to let those aromas cook from within and without.
Super easy and glamourous presentation, plus the lil hens are fun to nibble on with a buddy.
This recipe generously serves 4.
Y

Heya,

Thanks again Y for a fantastic weekend.

Here's a recipie my sweetheart made up, and it turned out DELICIOUS

you'll need:

a rice cooker
3 cups basmati rice
1 can of coconut milk (WHOLE -not- light)
3 or 4 lime leaves
2-4 tbsp of red curry paste
1 1/2 cups of water
1/2 cup of frozen peas

1) Mince lime leaves
2) measure rice into the rice cooker
3) add all remaining ingredients and mix
4) cook with the lid on untill the rice cooker says it's ready!

Voila! Instant coconut curry risotto. You can omit the lime leaves, but I find it lends a very exotic flavour and pairs nicely with the coconut milk.

Terrah if you like to can... here is my recipe for spicy refrigerator dills.. I use either the small cucumbers ment for pickling or the english ones.. if you grow your own cukes..just use young ones..

Three large english cukes washed and dried.. or about 3 lbs of pickling cukes sliced into spears to fit in side your jars.. I use wide mouth spagetti jars that I have sterlized in dishwasher( recycling is good for the earth ) I never use store bought reg cukes because they are mostly waxed.

3/4 cup of water, 1/1/2 cups cider and white vinegar, 3 heaping teaspoons pickling spice, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes,1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper 3 heaping tsps dill, 1/2 tsp celery seed, 2 tsp salt ( kosher or sea ) Mix together and let stand for about 2 hours or so

half a sweet onion sliced and about 10 peeled cloves of fresh garlic, some sprigs of dill weed if you can find it if not just add about 1/4 tsp of dill to the botom of each each jar

pack the jars tightly with the about three or four large cloves of garlic, the cucumbers sliced into spears and the rings of the onion.. generally I get one large english cucmber and half a onion and three garlic cloves and three sprigs into a jar. If you like pickling spice just add a bit more to the bottom of the jar and the same goes with the dill...

ladle the brine over seal tightly and put in the refrigerator I get generally about three full jars with this.. they sit for ten days and are ready to eat.

They are zesty without being overly hot and garlicky and not overly sweet nor overly sour.. and crunchy like a valsic pickle.. they keep nicely in the fridge not that they stay around long in this house..

The brine makes a nice vinaigrette with some olive oil and you can use the garlic cloves to crush into a salad espcieally good in a homemade ceasar...

Enjoy

divi, when you get your new machine, here is another recipe that debra found to be most excellent

New York Rye Bread

1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 2/3 teaspoons caraway seed
1 1/3 cups rye flour
2 1/3 cups bread flour
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

Place all ingredients in to your bread machine in the order specified by your machine's manual. Set the cycle to Basic or White for a 1.5 pound loaf, medium browning.
