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.
A recipe that was acquire from a mad military musican who is often seen picking olives from the wild olive trees in the foot hills of Adelaide. He advised that this chilli sauce improves in flavour and strength with age and that it’s for internal use only. However, if pain persists see your doctor. Note: This recipe yields 1.5 litres of sauce. I could only put 1 litre in the “Yield” field.
Damper is a quick bread that is fabulous with a barbecue! Damper was traditionally made in a cast-iron pot with a lid, called a “camp oven”. The entire pot was either covered in hot wood coals or the camp oven was placed in a hole in the ground and surrounded with hot wood coals. It was usually served with tea made in a billy over the camp fire. Damper was originally made with plain flour, salt and water. Adding butter and self-raising flour came later on and gives a much tastier result. I got this recipe from Taste, an Australian website. Enjoy!

Huey’s version of Sloppy Joes, from the Snack Attack section of his website. As always, he has his own take on a recipe and as always he adds lots of heat! Before posting this recipe, I read several hundreds of Zaar recipes for Sloppy Joes and concluded that in 99.9% of cases they are made from ground beef. But that was just my impression so I’ll happily be corrected if I’ve misunderstood the concept. 🙂 Huey’s recipe was sufficiently different from all those I read, so I decided to post it. Increase or decrease the heat to meet your taste preferences. Some conversions: 410g = 13oz; 440g = 14oz. And another conversion I had to make because Huey – in typical fashion – was vague in his specification of ingredients: I have converted his “1 good splash soy sauce” into “1-2 tablespoons of soy sauce”. From watching his TV cooking shows, I know that by a “splash” he means a fairly liberal splash! Please use your discretion and taste preferences to guide you here! 26 January 2009 UPDATE: Thank you to the two reviewers whose reviews have enabled me to make this update. First, you may like to incorporate some of justcallmetoni’s additions. I know if I were making this – minus the heat – I’d be adding onion and garlic. Secondly, appleydapply’s finding that there was too much liquid suggests that you need to be cautious of how much liquid you include. As you undoubtedly know, canned tomatoes vary enormously in how much liquid they contain. Aldi’s Italian tomatoes contain very little liquid compared with other brands. So I’d suggest pouring off all the liquid or most of it and, as she suggested, reducing or eliminated the amount of stock used. I’ve retained the original amount but stated that its addition is optional.
