Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 Yellow zucchini/courgette
1 Onion
1 Yellow or Orange Pepper
2 Small Red or Yellow Tomatoes
1 Clove Garlic
1/4 t Turmeric
1/4 t Chopped chilies (dried)
1 Small Cayenne chili
1 c Balti Sauce
1/2 c White wine, or
1/2 c Vegetable stock
Vegetable oil for frying

Scrub all vegetables and dry. Heat oil in karahi. Saute onions until
transparent: add turmeric, garlic and chopped dried chilies, and saute
for another minute (be careful not to let the garlic scorch), then remove
onions and garlic and set aside. Reheat oil slightly. Slice half the
zucchini/courgette into rounds: chop the rest into “matchsticks”. Slice
and roughly chop the tomatoes: seed and chop the peppers and chili.
Quickly stirfry all these vegetables for about two minutes or until
partially cooked: add the onions and garlic again, then the balti sauce.
Cook for about 5-10 more minutes until you like the consistency. If you
like, add white wine or vegetable stock and cook a little longer until
sauce reduces thick again. Serve in karahi with naan bread, or (if you’re
feeling pedestrian) on a plate, with rice.

Title: Hot Dog Surprise
Categories: Car food, Quick/easy, Kids!
Yield: 10 servings

10 x Hot dogs
x American cheese (or boutique
-brand Wisconsin cheddar, if
-you have an expensive car),
-sliced into hot dog-length
-fingers
10 sl Bacon

Distance: 40 miles

At home or on the road, cut a deep slit in each wiener, and stuff with
fingers of cheese. Then wrap on the diagonal, like an old bias-ply
tire, with the bacon. Seal individually in foil.
These are great for stuffing into those odd places on the engine
where you can’t fit a turkey or a suckling pig. Cook about 45 minutes, or
until cheese is melted and bacon is somewhat crisp.

Title: Coating for your Thanksgiving Turkey
Categories: Chicken, Condiment, Poultry, Holiday
Yield: 1 servings

1/3 c Paprika
Salt
Garlic powder
Onion; dried
Pepper
Water; to make paste

This will do about a 13-15lb turkey. Other seasonings are to taste. I
never did measure. This is a coating you can put on all poultry before
roasting. Basically you make a paste of the above ingredients. It
should be the consistencey of finger paint–thick and not runny. If
you have kids, put them in old clothes and let them help. I smear it
in and out of the cavity. Notice that this does not have any Gravy
Master or oil…both unneeeded in my opinion. The skin cooks nice and
crisp. Remember to baste during cooking. BTW, use this in the Nuke
too.
Sometimes we do a turkey or chicken in there when we have lot’s of
other baking/roasting to do. When Howard was in training to be a
Chef, he brought home a bunch of fellow students for dinner. Not one
of them even came close to guessing that the turkey had been made in
the nuke. I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.

1 TEMPURA BATTER RECIPE
1 TEMPURA SAUCE RECIPE

Make several crosswise slits on the underside of
shrimp to prevent curling. Parboil green beans. Pat
shrimp and vegetables dry; arrange on platter; cover
and refridgerate until serving time. Prepare batter
and sauce recipes. Do not make batter recipe too far
ahead of time.
Heat oil in a wok to 360 degrees. Dep shrimp and
vegetables into batter with tongs; allow excess batter
to drip into bowl. Fry a few pieces at a time until
golden brown, turning once (cooking time approximately
2-3 minutes). This is best prepared close to or at
the table. It is great fun to have a “tempura party”
with guests cooking their own. Serve with sauce and
rice. (you may need more batter mix depending on the
amounts of seafood and vegetables you prepare). Does
not keep well once cooked.
