Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 Brussel sprouts
1/4 ts Salt
4 oz American cheese — grated
2 tb Milk
10 Iceberg lettuce leaves
1/4 ts Paprika

Recipe by: Creepy Cuisine, Lucy Munroe
Wash the Brussels sprouts and remove any
discolored leaves. Trim off the stem ends and cut an X
into the bottom of each sprout to make sure your
tonsils cook nice and tender. Place the sprouts in a
pot containing about 2 inches of water and sprinkle
with the salt. Cover the pot and cook over medium heat
until boiling. After 8 to 10 minutes, carefully stab a
few sprouts with a fork to see if they’re tender. When
you can easily pierce them through to their centers,
remove the pot from the heat and carefully drain the
sprouts in a colander. Place the grated cheese in a
small saucepan and add the milk. Simmer over low heat,
stirring continuously with a wooden spoon until the
cheese melts. Remove the saucepan from the heat as
soon as the cheese melts. Arrange a bed of washed
lettuce leaves on a platter. Place the gorilla tonsils
~ in pairs, of course – on the leaves. Drizzle the
melted cheese (pus) over the tonsils. Sprinkle with
paprika (blood specks) and serve.

MAIN DISH: Eggplant in Tomato-Wine sauce (from one of the archives, adjusted)

2+ cups dry pasta shells (I used small shells)
1/3 water
1/4 cup vinger (favorite flavor, I used white)
1 large eggplant, peeled and cubed
1 small red onion, chopped
1/2 – 1 cup mushrooms, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup chopped chives
2 TBLS finely chopped/minced garlic
1 med tomatoe, chopped
10 oz tomatoe sauce
4 TBLSP oregono (adjust, start w/3 also try italian herbs)
1/8-1/2 tsp salt (taste)
ground pepper (fresh best)
1/4 cup red wine

Cook pasta shells. While cooking pasta heat a large skillet with the water and
vinegar. When getting hot add the cubed eggplant, onion, chives, garlic, green
peppers, and mushrooms. Saute till soft (I sauted at fairly high heat for about
15-20 minutes stirring a lot. I like eggplant to be prettty). When done add
to the pasta along with the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, pepper and red wine.
stir and heat gently (on low). This was actually fairly easy to make, the only
time consuimg paret was peeling the eggplant and chopping veges.

pour on the cheese, and top with a slice of bacon, a poached egg, and some
more cheese. Serve as hot as possible. Run the muffins under a hot broiler
to glaze the tops, if you like.

Title: Anise Molasses Brisket Braised in a Wok
Categories: Chinese, Beef, Ceideburg 2
Yield: 4 servings

1 sm Eggplant
2 lb Beef brisket, trimmed of
-excess fat
2 tb Peanut oil
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 tb Minced fresh ginger
1 tb Minced garlic
1/2 ts Crushed red pepper
6 Star anise
3 tb Soy sauce
1/4 c Dry sherry
2 c Beef broth
3 tb Dark molasses
Salt and pepper, to taste
8 Dried black fungus (tree
-ears)
1 Tomato, finely chopped
4 Scallions, sliced
1 ts Asian sesame oil

Here, beef brisket takes on an Asian flare. Slices of meat are
braised in an aromatic stock seasoned with star anise, soy sauce,
ginger, garlic, red pepper and dark molasses. As a final step,
pureed eggplant is stirred in, for flavor and thickening.

Pierce the eggplant several times with the tines of a fork. Place in
a preheated 400F oven and roast for 3 minutes, or until shriveled and
soft. Set aside. Slice the brisket against the grain into 1/4-inch
thick slices.

Heat the oil in a large wok or large deep skillet. When it begins to
smoke, add half of the beef and cook, stirring, until browned.
Remove and set aside.

Add remaining beef, and cook, stirring until browned. Remove and set
aside. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, crushed pepper, star anise and
soy sauce to wok and stir-fry for 10 seconds.

Return beef to wok, along with the sherry, broth and molasses. Stir
to blend and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer over low
beat for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until the beef is tender.

While beef is cooking, soak fungus in hot water to cover. When
swelled and softened, drain and rinse well; set aside.

Cut the stem end from the cooked eggplant. Split in half lengthwise
and scoop the flesh into a food processor or blender. Puree.

Add eggplant, drained fungus and tomatoes to beef and cook for 5
minutes longer. Stir in scallions and drizzle with sesame oil. Serve
with rice, if desired.

Serves 4.
