  • Title: MARISCADA – BRAZILIAN FISH STEW
    Categories: Fish, Brazilian
    Yield: 10 servings

    12 Clams
    1 lb Mussels
    2 tb Pure olive oil
    1 Large onion, diced
    2 Large ripe tomatoes, peeled,
    Seeded, coarsely chopped
    2 Cloves garlic, minced
    1 Sprig fresh cilantro, minced
    Salt black pepper to taste
    Cayenne pepper to taste
    Pinch of saffron threads
    4 lb Fresh codfish fillets, cut
    -into serving-size pieces
    1 lb Jb shrimp, peeled, deveined
    1/2 lb Fresh crabmeat, picked over
    -for cartilage

    Clean the clams by scrubbing them thoroughly with a wire brush,
    removing any beard or barnacles. Then place them in a large pot
    with 1 gallon of water or enough to cover, and 1/3 cup salt. Allow
    the clams to remain for 20 minutes during which time they will
    expel the sand inside. Continue this process, changing the water at
    least two more times. The mussels are cleaned in a similar manner,
    but you must leave them in the water for at least 2 hours. Throw
    away any clams or mussels that float or are not tightly closed.
    Heat the olive oil in the bottom of a large, heavy saucepan over
    medium heat. Add the onion, tomatoes, garlic, coriander, salt,
    peppers, and saffron and cook, stirring, until the onions have
    softened, but are not brown. Add the fish and shellfish to the onion
    mixture. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to
    low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the shellfish open. Discard
    any clams or mussels that do not open. Serve hot.

  • Title: Turkey and Rocket Salad with Macadamias
    Categories: Australian, Salads, Ceideburg 2
    Yield: 4 servings

    Text Only

    Here are some more recipes from the Sydney Morning Herald, courtesy
    of Mark Herron. What to do with leftovers is the subject of the next
    three posts.

    Turkey meat, which tends to be dry, benefits particularly from this
    macadamia dressing, but any roast poultry meat you have left over can
    be used instead. Another soft lettuce can stand in for the rocket
    (arugula) if you simply can’t obtain the latter, but it won’t provide
    the delicate, savoury flavour. Macadamia oil can now be obtained in
    some supermarkets.

    Wash and dry thoroughly: 1 bunch of rocket, discarding the coarse
    stem ends 1 small, soft lettuce

    Arrange the leaves on four plates.

    Heat 250 g macadamia nuts in an ungreased container in the oven until
    they smell appetizing, then set half aside and tip the other half
    into the bowl of a food processor. Add: 2 garlic cloves, roughly
    chopped. With salt and pepper process to a paste. With the food
    processor.running, slowly add 100 ml macadamia oil, then 50 ml white
    wine vinegar.

    Slice or shred enough turkey for four people and gently loss it in the
    macadamia salad.

    Arrange the dressed turkey on the prepared plates, drizzle left-over
    dressing over the salad leaves, Sprinkle with reserved macadamia nuts,
    roughly chopped, and finely chopped chives. Serve.

    Makes 4 servings.
