.RH REC.FOOD.RECIPES-#164 ORANGE-JULIUS2 L "24 Jul 91" 1991
.RZ "ORANGE JULIUS"
I used to make these all the time when I was little; haven't seen an Orange
Julius shop in years!
.IH "~ 3 servings"
.IG "1 cup" "orange juice" "225 ml"
(not fresh, it will curdle)
.IG "1 cup" "ice cubes"
.IG "1 cup" "milk" "225 ml"

(depending on how sweet the juice is already)
.IG "\(12 tsp" "vanilla extract"
.PH
.SK 1
Combine ingredients in a blender. Blend until frothy. You might have to
pre-chop the ice, if your blender has trouble with ice cubes.
.SH RATING

.RH REC.FOOD.RECIPES-#164 CHICKEN-MASALA M "24 Jul 91" 1991
.RZ "MANGALOREAN CHICKEN MASALA"
.KY CHICKEN INDIAN
This recipe is from the \fIAniversary Cookbook - National Evangelical Church,
Kuwait\fR (no, really!). Can't say that you'll find this book down at the
local bookstore, got mine as a gift from the daughter of one of the members.
Recipe was contributed by Alexander Shortpool of India. I will copy it
verbatum, then add my comments at the end. It is easy and excellent, not hot.
Serve it with rice or couscous.
.IH
.IG "2 \(14 lb" "chicken" "1 kg"
.IG "4 Tbls" "curd" "65 ml"
(plain yoghurt)
.IG "1 tsp" "turmeric powder"
.IG "1 cup" "onion,"
finely chopped
.IG "1 tsp" "ginger powder"
.IG "1 tsp" "garlic powder"
.IG "2 tsp" "chilli powder"
.IG "2 tsp" "coriander powder"
.IG "\(14 cup" "oil" "55 ml"
.IG "" "salt"
to taste
.PH
.SK 1
Cut chicken into pieces and marinate with curd and salt and keep aside for an
hour.
.SK 2
Heat oil and fry turmeric. Add onion and fry till light brown. Then mix
ginger, garlic and
.AB "1 Tbls" "15 ml"
of water, stir well. Then add chilli and coriander mixed with
.AB "4 Tbls" "65 ml"
water. Stir well till oil comes out clear.
.SK 3
Now add the chicken and sufficient water to make good sauce. Cover and let
cook on gentile fire till chicken is done.
.MX
Cooking is about a half hour to 45 minutes, depending on size of chicken
pieces and level of heat.
.PP
All of the curd (we used plain yoghurt) curdled (no pun, I think this is how
you would describe it). So, we made another batch of sauce, using all of the
ingredients except the chicken.
.PP
This was not hot, just spicy enough. You could probably spice it up with more
chilli powder and more garlic, or fresh garlic instead of powdered.
.SH RATING
.I Difficulty:
moderate.
.I Time:
2 hours.
.I Precision:
measure ingredients.

.RH REC.FOOD.RECIPES-#164 PEACH-CRISP Dl "24 Jul 91" 1991
.RZ "PEACH CRISP" "Peach crumble"
I just went nuts with a humongus peach crisp - just like good ol' apple crisp
(apple crumble?) except with peaches...
.IH "(I don't measure - wing it)"
.IG "" "peaches,"
sliced
.IG "" "lemon juice"
.IG "1 part" "quick oats"
(thin rolled oats)
.IG "1 part" "brown sugar"
.IG "1 part" "whole wheat flour"
.IG "" "margarine,"
melted
.IG "" "cinnamon"
.IG "" "nutmeg"
.IG "" "ginger"
.PH
.SK 1
Put peaches in oiled baking dish. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
.SK 2
Combine all other ingredients except margarine in small bowl and add just
enough melted margarine to make it stick together in small lumps (so it looks
like the first stage of pie pastry). Spread this resulting stuff over the
peaches.
.SK 3
Heat oven to
.TE 350 180
and bake until peaches are done and topping is browned, about 40 minutes.
.SK 4
Serve warm (not hot or cold) with a not-too-sweet vanilla or ginger ice cream,
or ginger-flavored whipped cream.
.SH "Variations:"
Mix other fruits in with the peaches - blueberries and raspberries are good...
.PP
Add a handful of raisins or currants to topping mix.
.PP
Add nuts to topping (or sprinkle over before baking).
.PP
You can use almost any fruit with this recipe (although I'm not sure how well
\fIwatermelon crisp\fR would go over!)
.SH RATING
.I Difficulty:
easy.
.I Time:
1 hours.
.I Precision:
no need to measure.

2 year old hard tack that tasted as good as the day I made it).

.IG "" "salt"

.RH REC.FOOD.RECIPES-#164 CUCUMBER-SAL-2 SLV "25 Jul 91" 1991
.RZ "GERMAN CUCUMBER SALAD"
.KY GERMANY
This is the standard way to prepare German cucumber salad.
.IH
.IG "1 large" "cucumber"
(a salad cucumber)
.IG "1 small" "onion"
.IG "2 Tbls" "white vinegar" "30 ml"
.IG "3 Tbls" "oil" "50 ml"
.IG "" "lemon juice"
.IG "" "salt"
.IG "" "pepper"
.IG "lots of" "fresh dill"
.PH
.SK 1
Peel and then thinly slice cucumber. It's important that the slices are very
thin. Since it's hard to do this with a regular knife, use a cucumber-grater.
.SK 2
Add a small, finely chopped onion.
.SK 3
For the dressing mix white vinegar, oil, a \fIspritzer\fR of lemon juice,
salt, pepper, and (this is important) \fBlots\fR of fresh dill.
.NX
I don't think it's a good idea to let the salad sit in the refrigerator for
hours (as someone suggested in an earlier article), since freshly cut
vegetables start to loose vitamins quickly.
