Kangaroo and Beer Pie with Damper Pastry
This was in our Age Sunday supplement. I’m posting it in honour of Australia Day, but have to admit I personally couldn’t eat kangaroo meat and would make it with lamb or beef! Prep time includes chill time.
Caramel Chicken
embarassed to say I got this from the back of a soup packet, but it is very good. I usually just make a bacon roll and secure that with a toothpick and fry the rolls in a little olive oil til browned. Then take them out and do the chicken in the oil, remove the toothpick and add to the casserole, looks classy 🙂 have to admit that I am way to lazy to do the orange thing 🙂
Huey’s Green Bean, Potato and Bacon Salad
My adaptation of another of Huey’s fabulous recipes. His salads he always categorises as sexy salads. He recommends this dish as an entrée or light lunch for four. It could, of course, also be served as a side dish. Serve it warm or at room temperature, whichever you prefer. Huey (Iain Hewitson) is a larger than life Melbourne restaurateur and chef who also features on his own extremely popular TV show. I have posted several of his recipes on Zaar.
Apple Cake Top
This is a really old family favourite that my mum often made. Now I make it! It’s OK with tinned pie apples (but home cooked are best), it’s good over stewed apricots, peaches, nectarines, quinces, and it’s nice to mix stewed rhubarb in with the apple when it’s available.
Ham & Pineapple Scrolls
A simple to make any-time snack which can be eaten warm or at room temperature, and just watch them disappear at children’s parties! From an October 2005 issue of the Australian magazine ‘Fresh Living’.
