Title: Possum or Bandicoot Soup
Categories: Soups, Oz
Yield: 1 servings

1 ea Small possum or bandicoot*
2 l Water
1 t Salt
1 ea Tin corn*
Any other vegies desired
1 pn Celery leaves
1 pn Parsley
Flour or gravox* to thicken
Fried bread,1 slice per serv

Skin and clean possum or bandicoot, then quarter the animal. (Video
tape this please. I have no idea how to do it. Also “first you have
to catch a possum or bandicoot”, but then that’s another story.)
Place it in a large pot or camp oven along with water and salt. Cover
and simmer gently for 3 or 4 hours. (Tough little devils apparently.)
Add vegetables and simmer for another 1 1/2 hours (Still tough. Even
the vegies are resisting being associated with this.) Strain soup
through a large holed colander when meat has left bone and remove
bones, especially small ones. Return soup to the pot and add parsley
and celery leaves. Thicken with a little flour or gravox. Cut fried
bread into 1 inch squares and serve soup over toast,boiling hot.

*For those of you that haven’t met a bandicoot, it is something
between a possum and a raccoon, sort of, I think, maybe.

*Tin of corn? Well a can I guess, 16 oz.

*Now, when you boil this meat for 5 1/2 hours, strain it and throw it
away, it does make me wonder why you started in the first place.

*Gravox is a meat concentrate seasoning I think. The dish must be
need some flavor.

*Fry the bread any way you want to.

*All things considered, a brick or stone would be a reasonable
alternative if you don’t happen to have a possum or bandicoot
available.

This is both a test and a recipe. I haven’t tried to upload a file to
the MM list before.

Many years back I spent a month wandering around Australia and while
in Coober Pedy I found this book called:

Bush Cooking by Max Bryant Published by the Kangaroo Press
ISBN 0 86417 230 3

Please don’t get the impression that this is what my good friends in
Australia eat normally or would even consider eating.

What it is, if I get it typed in, is a collection of recipes from the
harsh outback where you had to make do with what you had. Some of
them are even taken from the Aboriginal Peoples of Australia.

These recipes are for the most part unique, unusual, and as far as I
know factual.

In this particular recipe, I couldn’t help from adding some comments,
but then I only used it for a test. Hope you enjoy it even if you
never have unexpected guests and all that is available is a possum or
bandicoot that you don’t know what to do with.

Hopeless Twinkles

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Desserts Cakes

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
—–THE FILLING—–
1/2 cup Butter or margarine
3/4 cup Evaporated milk
1/2 cup Crisco
1 cup Sugar
1 tablespoon Vanilla
—–THE CAKE—–
3 large Eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
1 cup Milk — whole
1/2 cup Butter
1 1/2 cups Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
3 1/2 teaspoons Baking powder
2 cups All purpose flour

The Filling. Cream the butter 5 minutes, medium speed. Add Crisco a little
at a time. Cream another 3 or 4 minutes. Add the sugar a little at a time
while continuing to beat. Then add the milk, mixed first with the vanilla,
beating and scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl frequently. The
longer you beat this the better it becomes. The Cake. Preheat oven to
350~. Grease two 8″ square cake pans or baking dishes, or use a 13x9x2
pan. Beat 1 minute after each addition. Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake at 350~ for 30-35 minutes (40-45 minutes for an oblong pan) or until
you can insert a toothpick and it comes out clean. Cool the cake in pan on
a rack. It’s best to use the cake for Twinkles when it is slightly frozen
– about 30 minutes in the freezer. Then cut them into 1-1/2×3-1/2″ bars.
Put bottom side of each bar up on waxed paper. Spread half of the bars
with the filling and put together with an unfrosted bar, sandwich style.
Refrigerates up to 2 weeks, freezes up to 1 year.

Combine:
14 ounce package of Gimme Lean, ground beef flavor
1 cup rice or soy milk
Eggbeaters or substitutes equivalent to one egg (for binding)
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire or soy sauce
1 Tablespoon horse radish

Combine:
1 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup DEHYDRATED onions (look in spice section of grocery store)
1/4 cup dried parsley
1/4 c nonfat parmesan cheese (vegans can substitute nutritional yeast?)
1 teaspoon your favorite spice (I used an Italian Spice mix)
1/2 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste

Combine wet and dry ingredients (I use my hands). Line a cookie sheet
with foil, spray with Pam and form 1 large or 2 small loafs. Bake at
350 degrees for 1 hour. I bake on a cookie sheet because the outside
browns better than in a loaf pan and forms a delicious crust. If you
make two loafs, and want to freeze one, then take out one of the loafs
after 30 minutes, freeze, and then pop into the oven frozen solid, for
one hour when you are ready to eat. It comes out tasting like you just
made it and you don’t have to remember to defrost it!
