<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Chicken Burger with Mint Yogurt Sauce, From Applemint</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>For the Burger</em></span><br />
500 gms chicken mince<br />
2 tsp Moroccan All Spice<br />
2 tsp roasted cumin seed ground to powder ( adds extra fragrance )<br />
2 tsp paprika<br />
1 tablespoon garlic<br />
1 tsp Sumac<br />
1 tsp white pepper<br />
handful of chopped mint leaves<br />
salt to taste<br />
4 burger buns<br />
Sliced tomatoes<br />
Lettuce leaves<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>For the Sauce</em></span><br />
2 tablespoons Tahina<br />
1 tablespoon Mayonaise<br />
5 tablespoons thick yogurt<br />
2 tablespoons chopped mint<br />
salt to taste<br />
For the burger patties mix together all the burger ingredients minus the bread tomatoes n lettuce ofcourse. Leave to marinate for 2 hours at room temperature. In a non stick pan pour some olive oil and let it heat well. Divide the mince into 4 portions and make the burgers with your hands. Put it in the oil. In the mean time for the sauce mix all the ingredients together and chill. When the burgers are well done on one side, flip them and take another frying pan to toast the burger buns. Cut them in half drizzle a little olive oil and lightly toast them on the inner sides. By now the burgers would be ready. Remove from pan and set aside. Get the burger buns ready, place the lettuce then tomatoes and then the burger patties. Pour some sauce over it and top with the bread. You could add some onions if you like, but I chose not too. Serve hot with come cold shredded salad.<br />lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-80680919138004004112012-04-26T11:44:00.001-07:002012-04-26T11:44:18.751-07:00Crafty ChicI love the photos in this inspirational shoot.

Banana Bread Crepe Cake with Butterscotch Sauce recipe via Smitten Kitchen<br />
<br />
Yield: 11 to 12 9-inch crepes, or a 1 1/2-inch cake<br />
<u>Banana crepes</u><br />4 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled slightly, plus extra for greasing pan<br />1 large (will weigh 6 ounces/170 grams be about 6 inches long when unpeeled) speckly ripe banana (should yield a scant 1/2 cup peeled, pureed)<br />1 cup (235 ml) milk<br />3/4 cup (95 grams) all-purpose flour<br />4 large eggs<br />2 tablespoons (25 grams) light brown sugar<br />1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />1/4 teaspoon table salt<br />1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br />1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg<br />Pinch of ground cloves<br />
<u>Cream cheese yogurt filling</u><br />8 ounces (225 grams) cream cheese, well-softened<br />1 1/2 cups (345 grams) plain Greek-style yogurt<br />1/3 cup (65 grams) granulated sugar<br />1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />
<u>Walnut butterscotch topping</u><br />1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream<br />1/4 cup (50 grams) packed dark brown sugar<br />1 tablespoon (15 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature<br />1/2 cup (about 50 grams) chopped walnuts, toasted<br />1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt, or to taste<br />
<i>Make the crepe batter:</i> Blend banana in a food processor until totally smooth. Add melted butter, blend again. Add remaining ingredients and blend until they are combined. Transfer batter, which will look pretty thin, to a bowl (even easier later if it has a spout), cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least an hour, preferably overnight, and up to two days. When you remove the batter, it will seem surprisingly thick. Stir it to redistribute the ingredients before using it.<br />
<i>Cook the crepes:</i> Heat a medium skillet or crepe pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, brush pan thinly with melted butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter into skillet, swirling it until it evenly coats the bottom and cook, undisturbed, until the bottom is golden and the top is set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip* the crepe and cook it for 30 seconds on the other side, before transferring it to a plate to cool. Repeat with remaining batter. You can stack your crepes and they should not stick together. Let crepes cool completely.<br />
* Here’s my Weirdo Two-Spatula Crepe Flipping Method: I have two spatulas handy, one flexible fish-style spatula (these are my favorite, for everything, because they’re so thin) and one smaller, like an offset icing spatula. I slide the larger one just a little bit under the crepe and lift it enough that I can slide the smaller one under. I lift it enough that I can get the larger one <i>far</i> underneath the crepe, then use the larger one alone to flip it. It makes it very easy, I promise.<br />
<i>Make filling:</i> Whip cream cheese until fluffy, then beat in yogurt, 1/2 cup at a time. When fully combined, add sugar and vanilla then beat until rich and fluffy, just another minute.lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-47350768064566268872012-04-20T08:08:00.003-07:002012-04-20T08:08:47.897-07:00In Love with Lavender<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong><span style="color: #6b6c56;">Artichoke & Spinach Dip</span></strong>1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, not marinated<br />1/2 large onion, coarsely chopped<br />2-3 large cloves garlic, cut into thirds<br />1 tbsp olive oil<br />salt & pepper to taste<br /><br />1 can (19 oz) white kidney beans (no salt added)<br />1 cup sour cream (can use light)<br />1 tub (8 oz) garden vegetable cream cheese (can use light)<br />1/2 tsp grated lemon zest<br />4-5 dashes hot sauce<br />1/2 package (10 oz) frozen spinach, thawed, and squeezed dried<br />1 cup Asiago cheese, shredded</div>
<ul>
<li>Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. </li>
<li>Drain and dry the artichoke hearts, then cut them in half. </li>
<li>Place the artichokes, chopped onions and garlic into a roasting dish, and toss with the olive oil. Season with salt & pepper. Bake for 30 minutes. Make sure to check them and stir a couple of times so they don't burn. </li>
<li>While the artichoke mix is roasting, get out your food processor! Put the beans, sour cream, cream cheese, lemon zest, and hot sauce into the processor, and whirl until smooth. </li>
<li>When the vegetables are done roasting, remove them from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes. </li>
<li>Lower the oven temperature to 375 degrees. </li>
<li>Once the veggies have cooled slightly, add them to the food processor and pulse on and off until the mixture is blended, yet still chunky. </li>
<li>Transfer this mixture to an oven proof serving dish, and add the spinach and Asiago cheese. Mix well. </li>
<li>Bake uncovered for 30 minutes, until the mixture is bubbling around the edges. Cool for about 5 minutes before serving! </li>

<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">Ingredients</span></strong><br />
1/2 cup butter<br />

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour<br />
1 teaspoon salt<br />

1 teaspoon vanilla<br />
1/2 teaspoon almond extract<br />
4 egg whites beaten stiff<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">Method:</span></strong><br />
Add sugar to the butter and beat until light. Sift dry ingredients and add alternately with ice water and flavourings, beating thoroughly after each addition. Fold in the beaten egg whites. Pour into greased layer pans and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Cover with Angel Feather Icing and be tactful about the number of candles.<br />

As written in<strong> </strong><em>Food That Really Schmecks</em><br />
Edna writes, “There’s nothing better for an angel cake or a layer cake than this almost fool-proof and luscious icing; it doesn’t dissolve, run away or get crusty; it stays tender and fluffy for days if anyone lets it last that long.”<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">Ingredients:</span></strong><br />
<span style="color: black;">2 egg whites </span><br />
<span style="color: black;">3/4 cup sugar</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">1/3 cup corn syrup</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">2 tablespoons of water</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">1/4 teaspoon salt</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">1 teaspoon vanilla or other flavouring</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff99cc;"><strong>Method:</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Put everything but the vanilla into the top of a double boiler with a fast-boiling water below. Start beating immediately with a rotary beater or electric mixer until the mixture stands in stiff peaks. Remove from heat, add flavouring, and keep on beating until it is thick enough to spread easily. You’ll be delighted and everyone will exclaim when they see the glorified cake.</span><br />lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-73686886454778199142012-04-11T11:30:00.001-07:002012-04-11T11:30:30.731-07:00Bohemian Love StoryI am not typically a fan of Bohemian style anything, but the way this Bohemian inspired design is put together in such a way that makes my heart skip a beat.<br />

Carrot Cake Pancakes <br />
Recipe Via Smitten August<br />
<br />
Yield: About 12 to 16 3- to 4-inch pancakes<br />
<u>Pancakes</u><br />1 cup all-purpose flour<br />1 teaspoon baking powder<br />1/2 teaspoon baking soda<br />1/2 teaspoon table salt<br />1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br />1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (I used a smidge less)<br />1/8 teaspoon ground ginger<br />2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (optional, I skipped them)<br />2 tablespoons golden raisins (optional, ditto)<br />1 large egg<br />2 tablespoons packed brown sugar<br />1 cup buttermilk<br />1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<br />2 cups finely grated carrots (from about a 3/4 pound bundle whole carrots)<br />3 tablespoons butter, for griddle<br />
<u>Cream cheese topping</u><br />4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature<br />1/4 cup powdered sugar<br />2 to 3 tablespoons milk<br />1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<br />Dash of ground cinnamon<br />
Place a rack in the upper third of your oven and preheat to 200°F. This will keep the pancakes warmed as they’re fried in batches.<br />
To make the pancakes: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and, if using, nuts and raisins. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, buttermilk and vanilla. Stir in carrots. Stir carrot mixture into dry ingredients, stirring until just Incorporated. Let rest for five minutes while you make the cream cheese topping.<br />
To make the cream cheese topping: In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until fluffy and lump-free. Whisk in powdered sugar, two tablespoons milk, vanilla and cinnamon. If you’d like the mixture thinner, add the remaining tablespoon of milk (I did not).<br />
Over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a cast-iron skillet or griddle pan. Spoon 2 tablespoons batter into the hot pan per pancake (to me, this seemed like too little but after experimenting with larger pancakes, I advise you to listen to Joy; It’s a wiggly batter and much easier to and cook in small puddles), flipping once, until pancakes are golden on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer finished pancakes to a serving dish or tray in the oven, to keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed.<br />
Serve warm with cream cheese topping.lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-31903674293646172212012-04-10T10:58:00.001-07:002012-04-10T10:58:16.362-07:00Country GirlThis ranch wedding is truly unique!

Recipe of the day Broccoli stir fry! Yum Via House in the Hill Blog<br />
<br />
1 head of romanesco broccoli, chopped<br />
1 cup (dry) forbidden rice<br />
1/2 of medium/large purple cabbage, sliced<br />
1 medium yellow onion, chopped<br />
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely chopped<br />
2 tablespoons of ginger, peeled and finely chopped<br />
1 tablespoon of dark toasted sesame oil<br />
3 tablespoons shoyu (or substitute a little less soy sauce)<br />
juice of one lime<br />
2 green onions, sliced for garnish<br />
siracha (optional)<br />
the how:<br />
prepare forbidden rice (i rinse thoroughly and then cook 1 cup of dry rice with 1 1/2 cups of water in our rice cooker). this can be done in advance or be cooking while you're prepping the veggies.<br />
heat sesame oil in a wok over medium heat. add onion, ginger and garlic and cook for 3-5 minutes minutes. the onion should be softening.<br />
add romanesco broccoli, one tablespoon of shoyu and the juice of 1/2 of the lime. mix it all up, cover and cook for 2 more minutes.<br />
add cabbage, one tablespoon of shoyu and second half of lime. cook until the cabbage and romanesco are to your liking (I prefer a little crunch, but cook longer if you like a softer stir fry). When veggies are almost to your preference, add forbidden rice and one final tablespoon of shoyu (taste first and omit if you prefer it with less shoyu). I also add a few squeezes of siracha for some heat!<br />
garnish with green onions. serve to amazed friends and family & enjoy!lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-50009878609957725192012-03-31T08:29:00.002-07:002012-03-31T08:29:41.717-07:00Quick AnnouncementHi Girls-Just wanted to make a quick announcement that I am leaving for Germany today and will be gone all week!

<b>Cupcakes</b><br />
<b>Ingredients</b><br />
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour<br />
• 1 teaspoon baking powder<br />
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt<br />
• 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature<br />
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed<br />
• 2 large eggs, room temperature<br />
• 1 teaspoon vanilla<br />
• 1/2 cup buttermilk<br />
Directions:<br />
1) Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.<br />
2) In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and sea salt together and set aside.<br />
3) In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and brown sugar on medium-high until the batter begins to appear fluffy.<br />
4) Add eggs, one at a time, until each is well incorporated into the mixture. Then add the vanilla.<br />
5) In three batches, add the flour and alternate adding the buttermilk, making sure that each previous batch is incorporated before adding the next.<br />
6) Fill each muffin tin about half way with batter and bake for 23-25 minutes. Allow cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack before the next step.<br />
<br />
<b>Salted Caramel Filling</b><br />
<b>Ingredients:</b><br />
• 1/2 cup sugar<br />
• 3 tablespoons salted butter, cubed<br />
• 1/4 cup heavy cream<br />
<b>Directions:</b><br />
1) In a large pot, melt sugar over medium/high heat. Begin to gently whisk the sugar until it begins to melt.<br />
2) Add the butter and mix until it begins to melt.<br />
2) Incorporate the heavy cream. The mixture will immediately begin to foam.<br />
3) Remove from heat and allow the sauce cool just slightly.<br />
4) Cut a small circle out of the top of each cupcake. Fill with a teaspoon of caramel sauce and re-top the cupcake piece that you cut out.<br />

<strong>Yield: 1 three layer 8″ cake</strong><br />
10 ounces (2 1/2 cups) cake flour<br />
1 tsp baking soda<br />
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt<br />
1/3 cup buttermilk<br />
1/4 cup canola oil<br />
1/2 teaspoon almond extract<br />
1/2 vanilla bean<br />
4 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature<br />
1 1/2 cups sugar<br />
2 large eggs, room temperature, beaten<br />
1 cup pureed strawberries<br />

- In another medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, and almond extract. Set aside.<br />
- Split and scrape out the seeds from the vanilla bean. Rub the seeds into the sugar. In an electric mixer, beat the butter and vanilla sugar with the paddle attachment until it forms a paste. Add the eggs in a slow stream, beating well after each addition. Beat for 1 minute at medium speed. Gradually add the buttermilk mixture and beat for 1 minute at medium speed.<br />
- Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Stir in the pureed strawberries and the lemon zest.<br />

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt<br />
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and cream cheese on medium speed until smooth.<br />
- Sift in the powdered sugar, and beat on low speed until incorporated. Add the strawberry jam, vanilla, lemon juice and salt, and beat well to incorporate. If the frosting is lumpy from the sugar, bump the speed up to medium-high continue beating until smooth.<br />

<span sb_id="ms__id4203" style="font-family: Georgia;">Remove pastry from fridge and roll out in-between 2 pieces of non-stick baking parchment until approx. .5cm thick – note this pastry will still be a little soft so you may need to piece it together in some parts in the pie tin, to aid in the rolling stage, roll in between the paper as opposed to rolling on a floured surface as when you go to transfer it to the pie tin it’ll probably break apart if you skip the paper rolling method.<div sb_id="ms__id4204">

Remove the paper and rice/weights and allow to cool for 10 minutes.<div sb_id="ms__id4214">

Recipe of the Day: Double Chocolate Raspberry Pavlova<br />

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">The ingredients are:</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">6 x Egg Whites</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">300g Caster sugar</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">3 x tablespoons Belgian cocoa powder</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">1 x tablespoon good balsamic vinegar</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">50g good quality chocolate (70% cocoa solids), chopped into small pieces</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">3 punnets of fresh raspberries</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">500ml whipping cream, whipped and sweetened with a tablespoon of caster sugar</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new", serif; font-size: x-small;">Preheat oven to 180˚C</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new", serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">1. Place egg whites in the bowl of a mixer (I use a Kitchen Aid, find it excellent for meringues) and whisk until soft peaks form.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new", serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">2. Using a tablespoon at a time, add sugar into egg white mixture and continue beating until the egg whites become stiff and glossy. <i>Be careful not to over-beat as it can start to separate</i>. The mixture is ready once it forms stiff, glossy peaks and you can hold the bowl upside down without any of it falling out. (I don't normally test the latter as I'm familiar with meringue consistence but if you've never made one before, it's worth giving it a try, once it stays put, you know you're good to go.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">3. Sift in the cocoa powder, add the vinegar and chopped up chocolate, using a large spoon slowly and carefully fold these into the egg white and sugar mixture until fully combined. the mixture will resemble a very light brown shade.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">4. Line 2 large, flat oven trays with baking parchment - I find it a good tip to dab a little bit of the pavlova mixture underneath each corner of the paper as it helps it stick to the tray and avoids the paper slipping all over the place whilst you are loading on the mixture = very annoying..</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">5. Place a 9" or 10" dinnerplate on the middle of each tray and draw firmly around the edge with a pencil or pen to form a circle - this will act as a guide and ensure both pavlovas are the same size. Flip the paper over so the ink/pencil lead is touching the tray side as opposed to the pavlova side, you'll still be able to see the line through the paper.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">6. Load up each circle with the mixture, smoothing it out to the edge of the line you have just drawn, try to divide the mix equally so both have same volume of mix. I normally smooth out the mixture, but a Pavlova is not supposed to look perfect so feel free to form a few points and peaks if you want, when cooked they'll crisp up and add a bit more interest visually.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">7. Place in oven and immediately reduce heat to 140˚C. Cook for 1hr to 1hr15mins. <i>Do not open the oven door whilst the pavlova is cooking. </i></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">8. You'll know when the pavlova is cooked when it looks crisp at the edges which will have started to crack slightly. The top will be dry but if you press on the underside it'll give a little as the centre should be still a little squishy/soft. Place the pavlova back in the oven and leave the door slightly ajar, leave the pavolva to cool completely inside.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "courier new";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">9. When it is cool, I place one disc on a serving platter or cake stand and spoon a big wallop of cream on top, scatter a good handful of fresh raspberries onto the cream and then place the second meringue disc on top. Again pile on a good amount of cream and the remainder of the raspberries. Sprinkle with finely chopped chocolate and serve.</span></span></div>

<div class="instruction">
In a small bowl, coat the cheeses with cornstarch and set aside. Rub the inside of the ceramic fondue pot with the garlic, then discard. </div>
<br />
Over medium heat, add the wine and lemon juice and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually stir the cheese into the simmering liquid. Melting the cheese gradually encourages a smooth fondue. Once smooth, stir in cherry brandy, mustard and nutmeg. <br />
<br />
<div sizcache="14" sizset="402">
Arrange an assortment of bite-sized dipping foods on a lazy Susan around fondue pot. Serve with chunks of French and <a class="crosslink" debug="522 533" href="http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/pumpernickel/index.html" s_oc="null">pumpernickel</a> breads.

<table><tbody>
<tr class="rx"><td class="ingredients"><ul class="ingredients">
<li>2 cups old-fashioned oats</li>
<li>2 cups all-purpose flour</li>
<li>1 cup packed light brown sugar</li>
<li>3/4 teaspoon baking soda</li>
<li>1 teaspoon salt</li>
<li>1 & 1/4 cups unsalted butter, cut into small pieces</li>
<li>48 soft caramels (e.g. Kraft caramels)</li>
<li>1/2 cup heavy cream</li>
<li>1 cup semisweet chocolate chips</li>
</ul>
</td><td class="directions">Preheat oven to 350°. Coat a 9″x 13″ baking pan with cooking spray. Line with parchment paper, leaving about a 2-inch overhang on the short ends.<br />
In a large bowl, stir together oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix in butter, using a fork or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Press half of mixture onto the bottom of prepared pan.<br />
Bake until just set and starting to brown around the edges (about 20 minutes). Cool in pan on wire rack for 5 minutes.<br />
While crust is baking, cook caramels and cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally, until caramels are melted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.<br />
Sprinkle partially baked crust with chocolate chips. Drizzle caramel mixture over chips and crust. Top with remaining crumb mixture.<br />
Bake 20-25 minutes, or until pale golden. Cool completely in pan before cutting into bars</td></tr>

<b>Roasted Eggplant with Ricotta and Mint-Via Smitten Kitchen</b><br />
This is like eggplant bruschetta, except the eggplant is the bruschetta, topped with a Mediterranean summer salsa of a salad. <br />
Feta is a great alternative to ricotta salata. If you’re put off by the sharpness of fresh onion, pour the red wine vinegar over it in a dish, and let it sit for 10 minutes, tossing it from time to time, before adding it to the salad. No need to add additional vinegar if you do. If you don’t like capers, you can substitute green or black olives. If you don’t care for mint, you can substitute flat-leaf parsley. If you don’t care for eggplant, well, thank you for reading along anyway! Ahem, or brush pitas or flatbreads with olive oil, grill them and dollop this salad/salsa on top.<br />
Makes about 4 appetizer/salad portions, assuming people will eat two rounds each.<br />
1 to 2 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons olive oil<br />1 1/2 pounds eggplant (about 2 medium), in 3/4- to 1-inch slices<br />2 ounces (1/2 cup) chopped or crumbled ricotta salata<br />2 tablespoons capers, drained<br />1/3 cup finely diced red onion<br />3 seeded, diced medium tomatoes (1 1/2 cups)<br />3 tablespoons minced fresh mint leaves<br />2 teaspoon red wine vinegar<br />Freshly ground black pepper.<br />
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a large baking sheet generously with olive oil, about 1 to 2 tablespoons. Arrange eggplant rounds in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast, without disturbing, for 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully flip each piece: the undersides should be blistery, dark and a bit puffy and should release from the pan with no effort. If they’re not, let it cook longer. Once flipped, sprinkle them with additional salt and freshly ground black pepper and return the pan to the oven for another 10 to 12 minutes or so, until the undersides match the tops.<br />
[Alternatively, on the grill: Brush eggplant slices with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill eggplant slices until slightly charred and tender when pierced with knife, about 5 to 7 minutes per side.]<br />
Meanwhile, mix your ricotta, capers, onion, tomatoes, mint, vinegar and remaining 4 teaspoons olive oil in a small bowl. Taste for seasoning; ricotta salata tends to be quite salty so I don’t find that this dish needs more than a pinch of salt, if that. Add more vinegar, if desired. Add freshly ground black pepper, to taste.<br />
When the eggplant discs are done, arrange them on a serving platter. Scoop a spoonful of the salad over each round. Eat immediately.lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-64111105833313635402012-03-19T14:00:00.001-07:002012-03-19T14:00:09.151-07:00The Notebook WeddingFor those of you who are like me-the Notebook is one of my favorite love stories.

I used marble.)<br />6 tortillas (You can use corn or whole wheat tortillas.) (I used 2 small tortillas for each layer.)<br /><br />Sour cream for serving.<br />
<li>Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. </li>
<li>Prepare a cookie sheet by lightly oiling it. </li>
<li>Have all your vegetables cut up, then toss them with the oil, garlic, cumin and salt & pepper. </li>
<li>Spread the vegetables out onto the cookie sheet, and bake them for 30-40 minutes, but make sure to shake the pan or stir them every 10 minutes or so to prevent burning. </li>
<li>Once the vegetables are done, remove them from the oven and set aside. </li>
<li>Then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. </li>
<li>Combine the salsa with the chopped cilantro. Set aside. </li>
<li>Now it's time to put it all together! Get out an 8x8 baking dish. </li>
<li>Spread out 1/3 of the salsa mixture, into the bottom of the baking dish. </li>
<li>Layer on the tortillas to completely cover the salsa. (I used 2 small ones for each layer.) </li>
<li>Layer on 1/3 of the roasted vegetables. </li>
<li>Layer on 1/3 of the shredded cheese. </li>
<li>Layer on another layer of tortillas, then 1/3 of salsa, 1/3 of the veggies, 1/3 of the cheese. </li>
<li>Add another layer of tortillas. </li>
<li>Spread on the rest of the vegetables, then the salsa, then top with the remaining cheese. </li>
<li>Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the cheese is slightly browned and the dish is bubbling. </li>
<li>Serve with dollops of sour cream! Yum! </li>lovestorychickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633529234041729582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064751401313669838.post-6126481923556651482012-03-15T11:02:00.001-07:002012-03-15T11:02:43.955-07:00Rock My WeddingToday's inspiration goes out to my classic rock chix!

<ul sb_id="ms__id5893">
<li sb_id="ms__id5894">Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5895">Heat about 2 tbsp cooking oil in a frying pan (medium to high heat) </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5896">Dredge your cubed beef in flour. When the oil is hot, add the beef to the frying pan, and brown on all sides. Don't overcrowd the beef, so you may have to cook it in batches (and you may have to add more oil). Also be careful not to overcook it, you just want to brown the beef! </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5897">When the beef is browned, put it into an oven proof dish. </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5898">In the same pan that you browned the beef, add the onions and garlic, and cook until soft. Don't worry about the messy pan, you want all that stuff in there - it adds great flavour! </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5899">Once the onions and garlic are soft, add the stock, beer, vinegar, sugar, mustard, cloves, salt & pepper, basil and bay leaves. Bring to a boil. </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5900">Then pour the liquid over the beef, cover, and transfer the dish to the oven. </li>
<li sb_id="ms__id5901">Bake until the beef is tender - about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Stir a couple of times during cooking. </li>
</ul>

<li><span>Combine lemon juice and vanilla in a large bowl. Peel, core and cut apples into 3/4-inch chunks, tossing them in the lemon juice mixture as you work. </span></li>
<li><span>Mix 2/3 cup sugar and cornstarch and toss with apples. Add blackberries. </span></li>
<li><span>Place 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap on a work surface. Set the larger disk of <a class="cimotif" href="" style="border-bottom: green 2px dotted; color: #668c1f; cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">dough</a><img height="10" src="http://a19.g.akamai.net/7/19/7125/1450/Ocellus.coupons.com/_images/showlist_icon.gif" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; cssfloat: none; float: none; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; position: static;" width="10" /> in the center and cover with 2 more sheets of plastic wrap. Roll dough into a 13-inch circle. Remove top sheets and invert dough into prepared pan, letting excess dough hang over the edges. Gently press dough into bottom and sides of pan.

Directions</div>
<ol class="directions instructions">
<li><span>Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease and flour large cookie sheet or spray it with a nonstick spray that contains flour.</span></li>
<li><span>In 3-quart saucepan, heat water, butter, and salt to boiling on medium until butter melts. Remove saucepan from heat. Vigorously stir in flour all at once until mixture forms ball and comes away from side of pan.</span></li>
<li><span>Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, until batter becomes smooth and satiny.</span></li>
<li><span>Drop batter by scant 1/4 cups into 10 large mounds, 2 inches apart, onto prepared cookie sheet. With fingertip moistened with water, gently smooth tops to round.</span></li>
<li><span>Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until puffs are a deep golden-brown. Remove cookie sheet from oven; with knife, poke hole in one side of each puff to release steam. Turn off oven. Return cookie sheet to oven and let puffs stand 10 minutes to dry out slightly. Transfer puffs to wire rack to cool completely.</span></li>
<li><span>Using serrated knife, slice each cooled puff horizontally in half. With fingers, remove and discard any moist dough inside. </span></li>
<li><span>Meanwhile, coarsely chop chocolate. In 1-quart saucepan, heat half-and-half and sugar just to boiling on medium-high. Remove saucepan from heat; add chocolate and let stand 1 minute. Whisk until smooth.</span></li>
<li><span>To serve, place 1 scoop ice cream in each cream puff base; replace cream puff top, then drizzle with warm chocolate sauce.</span></li>
