Title: CHAMPAGNE TRUFFLES
Categories: Candies, Kump
Yield: 24 servings

MMMMM———————–CENTER MIXTURE—————————-
8 oz Cream
1 lb Bittersweet chocolate
1 oz Butter
1 oz Cognac

MMMMM————————–ENROBING——————————-
1 lb Bittersweet chocolate
1 lb Cocoa

It is important to use an excellent quality chocolate when making
truffles since it is the primary ingredient. Valhrona is my first
choice and Callebaut is my second.

BRING THE CREAM TO A BOIL and pour it over the cut chocolate. Allow to
stand 1-to-2 minutes and stir smooth. Beat in the softened butter and
cool to set. Beat with an electric mixer (using a paddle attachment if
available) on medium speed until light. Beat in Cognac. Pipe out small
truffles on parchment or waxed paper with a pastry bag fitted with a
1/2-inch plain tube. Refrigerate to set. Melt the chocolate. Sift the
cocoa into a deep pan. Dip the truffles in the melted chocolate and
then deposit them in the cocoa, shaking the pan to cover them. After
the covering sets, shake the truffles in a strainer to remove the
excess cocoa.

Zucchini Stuffed with Lamb and Mint

Recipe By : Molto Mario
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : New Text Import

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
4 medium zucchini
4 tablespoons virgin olive oil
1 medium Spanish onion — finely chopped
4 cloves garlic — thinly sliced
1 pound ground lamb — crumbled
2 eggs
1 bunch fresh mint leaves, picked but — left whole
1 cup basic tomato sauce
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
BASIC TOMATO SAUCE
1 Spanish onion — cut in 1/4″ dice
4 cloves garlic — thinly sliced
3 ounces virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1/2 carrot — shredded finely
2 28 ounce can tomatoes — crushed and mixed
Salt to taste

To Make Tomato Sauce: Saute onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat for
about 10 minutes, or until translucent but not browned. Add thyme and carrot,
cook 5 minutes over medium heat and add tomatoes. Bring to boil, lower heat to
just bubbling and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt to
taste and set aside.

To Make Stuffed Zucchini: Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Trim zucchini and cut in half lengthwise. Using a spoon or a melon baller,
remove a canal down center of each zucchini half, leaving a 1/4-inch all around
and the ends
closed. Roughly chop the excess zucchini flesh and set aside.

In a 10- to 12-inch sautJ pan, heat olive oil until just smoking. Add onion and
garlic and cook over medium high heat until softened, about 6 to 7 minutes.
Add zucchini pieces and crumbled lamb and cook until lamb is cooked through,
about 10 minutes. Drain fat from lamb mixture and place in a large mixing bowl.
Add eggs, half of the mint leaves and tomato sauce and mix well. Season both
the mixture and the zucchini boats with salt and pepper. Stuff the lamb mixture
into zucchini boats and pile high. Place in an oven-proof baking dish just
large enough to hold the 8 pieces and sprinkle with bread crumbs. bake for 20
to 25 minutes until crisp on top and remove. Serve warm or at room temperature
with a chicory salad and sprinkle with remaining mint leaves.
