Chicken and Bacon Pan-Fried Sandwich
From a feature in our local paper. I have based cooking time on having to cook the sandwich in 2 batches.
Norm’s Potato Cakes
Potato cakes were my dad’s specialty. He often cooked them for lunch on Saturdays. I still use his recipe. To make this dish extra special, top the cooked potato cakes with a spoonful of your favorite mayonnaise (we prefer the nutty flavor of soy mayonnaise), sour cream, or ranch dressing. A sprinkling of chopped chives or finely sliced green onions or a generous shake of paprika gives a nice finishing touch. Accompanied by a crisp green salad, this makes a perfect light supper or lunch dish.
Chow Mein for Tomoko
This is a really old fashioned dish my mum used to make. Tomoko has come to live with us, and tonight she made this for her first cooking lesson. Now I’ll post it here then print it out for her.
2-Minute Noodle Corn Pancakes
Most kids love 2-minute noodles and corn fritters so in this recipe, adapted from a recipe on the Simply Great Recipes website, the two have been combined to make yummy kid-friendly pancakes. If you want to sneak in some different vegetables, you could probably get away with this the second or third time you make these! For an adult version, perhaps add bacon, garlic, and serve with sour cream and lemon wedges.
Rice Flour Crepes / Pancakes- Gluten, Dairy and Egg Free
This recipe was given to me whilst I was on an allergy elimination diet. It has no gluten, dairy or eggs. A basic recipe, but not bad when your diet is restricted. The best rice flour to use is a very fine textured flour-you can buy it at most asian grocers. The coarser textured rice flour will taste gritty in your baked goods. It’s been a while since I made these-so I’m guessing that they serve 4. These are also vegetarian. As all gluten-free flours are a little different in how much liquids they absorb-add some extra liquid if required to achieve the right consistency
