Spinach, Like You Have Never Had

My good friend Bev cooked this one day at a friends place. She had never been a spinach fan. Whole new way to look at the old “silver beet” which is a brother to the more insipid English spinach. Can be a breakfast dish with a few eggs, luncheon with a sprinkle of cheese, or side dish. Anything a little different is nice for a change 🙂

Perfect Rice Every Time We Cook It!

This “recipe” comes from a 40 year old cook book I inherited when I met Russell! “Entertaining with Kerr”. He was a pompus TV cook in Australia, and this is the only thing I’ve ever cooked out of the book. It’s also the ONLY way I enjoy my rice (and we eat a lot of that!)

Chicken in Coriander / Cilantro Sauce

My neighbour was telling me about this dish a while ago and they way she explained it made my mouth water. I asked her a copy of the recipe and here it is now on Zaar. I’ve only tried it once and next time I make it I may remove the liquid/sauce and puree it so it could be a thicker green sauce. I will also try it with chicken thighs as I used chicken breast and it wasn’t tender as I wanted it to be. Overall the flavours were yummy and I served it with cous cous. UPDATE!! After much consideration and experimentation, I’ve double to sauce as suggested by the reviewers – NOTE!! An “average” sized bunch of coriander is 60 grams (2 oz) = 1 1/2 cups chopped

Seedy Muesli Bar Slice

A girlfriend made this for our Bible study group and I couldn’t stop eating it! Sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, honey – mmmmmm! Hope someone out there likes it too! And so easy to make!

Gang Bao Chicken

I have tried and tried for years to get this recipe from my favourite Chinese Szechuan Restaurant and there it is in today’s newspaper!!! We have even had a Recipezaar get togethers to try and pick the ingredients! From Double Eight Chinese Restaurant in Broadbeach. Thanks to Joan and John Mei. Can also be called Kung Pao Chicken or Gong Bao Chicken but I have gone with the original restaurant name.
