Title: RISOTTO WITH FENNEL
Categories: Italian
Yield: 4 servings

6 tb Unsalted butter
1/2 c Chopped sweet yellow onion
1 Fennel bulb (1 lb); trimmed
– quartered, cored
– and cut into 1/4-in slices
1/4 ts Salt
1 pn Nutmeg
– preferably freshly grated
5 c Light chicken stock; -=OR=-
2 1/2 c – Canned broth with
2 1/2 c – Water
1 1/2 c Arborio rice
1/4 ts Freshly ground pepper
1/4 c Freshly grated Parmesan

IN A LARGE HEAVY SAUCEPAN OR flame-proof casserole, melt 3 tablespoons of
the butter over low heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, but not
browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the sliced fennel. Season with the salt
and nutmeg; mix well. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10
minutes. Meanwhile, bring the stock to a simmer in another saucepan. After
10 minutes, add the rice to the fennel, stirring to coat each grain with
butter. Add 2 cups of the hot stock. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered,
stirring constantly, until the rice is just tender, adding more stock, 1/2
cup at a time as the rice absorbs the liquid, about 20 minutes. (If you run
out of stock before the rice is done, use hot water.) The finished dish
should be moist but not soupy. When the rice is tender but still firm,
remove from the heat and stir in the pepper, the remaining 3 tablespoons
butter and the grated Parmesan cheese. Season with additional salt to taste
and serve immediately in warm bowls.

Stir-fried Tofu Or Beef With Onions* (fngp13b)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Chinese Beef
Vegetarian

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 pound Tofu — extra firm*
1/4 cup Oil
1 tablespoon Pale dry sherry
2 Ginger root slices — shredded
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 Onion;large — thinly sliced
Black pepper — fresh ground
3 Garlic cloves — minced
2 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon Cornstarch**
1 teaspoon Sugar
3 tablespoon Stock**

*This dish originally used 1 lb. of flank steak which was cut against the grain
into thin slices and then marinated same as the tofu. Sometimes I make it with
steak or tofu or a mixture of both. In addition, I occasionally add a small bok
choy which is first blanched and then cooled.
If other vegetables are added, increase the cornstarch mixture to three times
what is listed. Recipe can be doubled and comes out fine. **Mix the cornstarch
with the soup stock and have ready until needed. Get tofu ready according to
your favorite methods. I usually slice it lengthwise in half- inch blocks, put
paper towels over and under it, and press with telephone book to get out excess
water. Mix together the sherry, salt, pepper, soy sauce, sugar and 1 1/2 tsp.
of the oil in a shallow dish. Add the tofu or steak shreds and leave to
marinate for 15 minutes.
06/02/92 10:07 PM Heat 2 1/2 tablespoons of the remaining oil in a wok or
pan over high heat. Add the ginger and onion and stir-fry for 1 1/2 minutes
(about). Remove onions, place in a colander, and let drain. You can use the oil
left in pan if it is enough. Heat wok again. When it is very hot, add the tofu
or steak and garlic. Stir-fry the tofu or steak and garlic in the oil for until
brown. Mix in the onion and ginger and stir-fry for a minute. Stir in the
cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring for about 30 seconds or until thickened.

SIOUX BERRY SOUP

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/2 lb Chuck steak, boned/trimmed
3 tb Peanut oil
1 md White onion, peeled/sliced
2 c Beef stock (up to 3 cups)
1 c Blackberries
1 tb Honey
Salt to taste

Broil the chuck steak in the oven until brown on both
sides. In the old days this would have been done over
the fire, so you might wish to quickly barbeque the
meat in order to increase the flavor. Set the meat
aside to cool.

In a Dutch oven heat the oil and brown the onions. Cut
the meat into bite-size pieces and add to the pot. Add
the blackberries and enough beef stock to barely cover
the meat. Stir in the honey and simmer the meat,
covered, until it is very tender, about 1 hour. If the
berries are too tart add more honey to taste. Add salt
and serve in bowls.

Smith recommends servings this with Bacon Corn Bread
and Hominy Baked with Cheese.
