1 1/2 oz Onion — finely chopped
1 t Curry powder
1/2 oz Flour
15 fl Milk

5 tb Coconut milk
Salt pepper
—–TO FINISH—–
4 tb Cream

“Despite the simplicity of this recipe, it is
delightful and subtle, although this depends very much
upon the quality of the basic ingredients used.” IMH
Melt butter, and soften the very finely chopped
onion over gentle heat. When tender, but not browned,
add curry powder (which should be of good quality, and
ideally home made) and continue cooking 1-2 mins. Stir
in flour and cook to make a roux for a further minute
or so. : Remove from heat and when slightly cooled,
gradually stir in stock and milk. Return to heat and
stir while bringing to the boil. When boiling, reduce
heat and simmer gently 15 minutes or so.
Add coconut milk (or creamed coconut if the milk is
unavailable) and stir to incorporate. Strain, correct
seasoning and reheat. Serve with a little cream
marbled on the surface, and a slice of lemon.

Recipe By : Cooking Live Show #CL8904
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cooking Live Import

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method

3 pounds beets
1 tablespoon light olive oil
1/2 yellow onion — coarsely chopped
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons garlic — minced
2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
2 cups water — (up to 3)
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice — (up to 3)

Trim beet greens at the base of the beet. Bring a large pot of water
to a boil and add the beets. Reduce the heat and cook, uncovered, at a
low boil until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Test the beets by inserting a
paring knife or skewer. If there is no resistance, they are ready to
be drained. Drain when tender and allow to cool or run them under cold
water to cool them quickly. Peel, cut into large pieces, and set
aside.

Heat oil in a small saute pan, add the onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt,

needed with lemon juice, vinegar, salt and pepper. Chill the soup,
ladle into bowls. Garnish each with a swirl of sour cream and a

Title: ABALONE MEUNIERE MANDARIN
Categories: Chinese, Seafood, Ceideburg 2
Yield: 1 servings

5 (7 1/2-ounce) cans Mexican
-abalone
8 oz Shrimp
4 oz Fat pork
4 oz Water chestnuts, minced
pn Chives
Ginger water, to taste (see
-note)
Salt and MSG
1 oz Maize (corn) flour
4 oz Chive and ginger oil
-(see note)
2 oz Flour
3 Eggs, beaten
5/8 oz Shaoxing wine
6 oz Chicken stock

The following four recipes are from a Chron article
called “Foreign Intrigue” by Alice Cuneo that featured
recipes from various consulates in the City. This
first one is from the Consulate of the People’s
Republic of China. It’s a sophisticated (but
uncomplicated) banquet dish featuring abalone, shrimp
and porkfat.

Abalone stuffed with minced shrimp, from Shen Xuliang
of the Chinese consulate.

Trim the abalone, removing rough parts, and cut into
flat rounds. Chop shrimp and fat pork to a paste
consistency; stir in the water chestnuts, chives and
ginger water. Season with salt and MSG.

Create the abalone “sandwiches” by spreading an
abalone round with shrimp paste, then topping with
another round. Dredge “sandwiches” in maize flour and
set aside.

Heat chive and ginger oil in a wok over medium heat,
swirling the oil to coat all sides of the wok.

Dip the abalone “sandwiches” in the flour, then in
eggs. Fry in the hot oil until abalone is tender and
golden. Add Shaoxing wine, chicken stock, salt and
MSG. Bring to a simmer, adjust the seasonings and
simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately.

NOTE: Chive and ginger oil is oil in which chives and
ginger have been cooked. To make at home, heat 4
ounces oil in a wok set over medium heat. Toss in 1 or
2 tablespoons fresh snipped chives and 3 slices fresh
ginger. Stir-fry until fragrant, then proceed with
recipe. (Remove ginger slices before serving.)

Ginger water is available in Chinese markets.

DRIED TART CHEERY SCONES

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 c + 3 T flour
6 1/2 ts Baking powder
10 ts Milk
1/2 c Dried tart cherries — cut up
1/2 c Sugar
1/2 c Chilled butter — cut up
1 Egg — beaten
1 t Orange or lemon rind — grated

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease baking sheet. Stir together the flour,
sugar and baking powder. Cut in butter until mixture resembles crumbs. (A
food processor works great.) Stir in dried cherries and grated rind.
Combine milk and egg. Mix into dry ingredients, gather dough into a ball.
Roll dough out 1/2″ thick onto a lightly floured surface. Cut into 3″
circles with a sharp knife or biscuit cutter. (A glass does not work well
because it crimps the edges and they will not rise as well.) Arrange on a
baking sheet, 1″ apart. Bake until firm to touch, about 20 minutes. Serve
warm. From: American Spoon Foods
