Well this isn't vegetarian, but it is mostly veggies and
cheese, with just a bit of meat. BTW, this one isn't from the
Online Cooking Club, but was an original creation from what
still remains of the Wizard's own peculiar brain (I'd give you a
piece of my mind, but it's my last one!). However, since it was
published in the Food & Wine RoundTable's monthly newsletter, it
will still need the reference back to the GEnie copyright/signup
blurb you are using for the cooking club recipes).
Aromatic Aubergine au Asafoetida (*)
Ingredients:
1 eggplant (suitable size for stuffing)
2 leeks, chopped
1 small green pepper, finely diced
4 oz hot Italian turkey sausage
1/2 cup sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 tsp compounded asafoetida powder
1 Tblsp hot Indian curry paste
1 Tblsp olive oil
Directions:
Slice eggplant in half, lengthwise. Do not peel (or wash,
unless you're one of those overly fastidious types). Steam
(about 10-15 minutes) or parboil (about 5 minutes) or microwave
on high (about 5-7 minutes).
Scoop out flesh from each half of eggplant (a power router
works real well for this), leaving about a 1/4 inch shell. Mash
scooped-out eggplant pulp with fork, ricer, hammer, or a real
masher (if you have invited one for dinner).
Saute leeks, pepper and sausage in oil until veggies soft
and sausage no longer pink, adding asafoetida and curry paste
after first minute or two. Add mashed eggplant pulp during last
minute or two of cooking, stirring thoroughly.
Stuff each eggplant half with about half of the pulp, veggie
and meat mixture. Top this with the grated cheddar and then top
this with remaining stuffing mixture.
Bake (loosely covered with foil) in a pre-heated oven (350
degrees) for about 30 minutes or until shell is tender. Top with
grated Parmesan (remove foil first) and continue baking uncovered
until melted (the parmesan cheese that is, not the eggplant).
Stand aside for about 5 minutes and then cut crosswise into
serving sized chunks.
May be served with a side dish of beans to test the efficacy of
the asafoetida's supposed medicinal properties.
Enjoy - or else! BTW, I actually made and ate this for
dinner the other night and it's not half bad (though figuring
out which that half is, is a bit tricky at first).
(*) "Asafoetida is a resin extracted from an oriental
umbelliferous plant. It is dried and crushed and sold as powder
in Iran, India, and Afghanistan, where it is commonly used as a
condiment. Its very bitter flavour and pronounced garlic smell
make it distasteful to Europeans. It was popular with the
Romans, but was later used mainly as a medicine to treat
flatulence, etc." (Larousse)

Title: Stuffed Bell Peppers
Categories: Maindish, Beef, LB
Servings: 4
4 md Green Bell peppers* 1/2 ts Pepper
1/4 c Vegetable oil 1/2 ts Thyme
1 md Onion, finely chopped 1/2 c Drained stewed tomatoes
2 Cloves, minced garlic 1 c Cooked rice**
1/2 lb Ground beef 1 tb Parsley
1/2 ts Salt
1. Cut top off each pepper and remove seeds and veins. Blanch in boiling
water for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and let cool.
2. In a skillet, heat oil, add onion and garlic and saute for 4 to 5
minutes.
3. Add meat, salt, pepper and thyme and cook until meat is browned.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the meat, tomatoes, rice and parsley.
5. Stuff each pepper with the meat mixture, place top back on each and
bake in a preheated 325 degree F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
*You may use yellow or red peppers as a substitute for eye appeal. One of
my favorite serving tricks to use green, red, yellow peppers in this
preparation. Then, use a large, well garnished platter for the cooked
peppers. If you use a creole type suace, the affect is truely spectacular.
**I have from time to time cut the peppers in half lenghtwise in order to
add plate coverage. This is especially important if the peppers are small.
It gives the appearence of quantity with out the bulk. When I do this I
increase the cooked rice to 1 1/2 cups. Your mileage may vary!

EASY BRUNSWICK STEW
1 lb. ground beef
1 med. onion, chopped
2 cans tomatoes, diced
2 cans cream-style corn
1 10-oz. can barbecued pork
2 cans boned chicken
-- or 1-1/2 cups cooked chicken or turkey
1 small bottle ketchup
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. Tobasco sauce (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Brown ground beef with onions, stirring to break up clumps. When meat is
no longer pink and onion is transparent, drain and mix with remaining
ingredients in a Crock-pot. Cook for 6 hours on low. Serve hot with
fresh hot bread (we like cornbread), barbecued pork or chicken, or both.
This freezes well and keeps for several days in the refrigerator.
Note: this recipe does not do well on stovetop; it burns easily on even
the lowest heat setting on my stove. If you don't want to use the
Crock-pot, try a slow oven or a microwave on a low power setting.

SN to BH re: Cholesterol Reduction:
If you substitute low fat ricotta cheese
Ground turkey for red meat
low fat Mozzarella
And turkey sausage
as I have done in my Lasagna recipe, it will not raise your triglyceride
level and will taste pretty good. I know, I have to do this, and I
still enjoy many of my old favorites.
In case anyone is interested, I saute my onions and peppers and
everything else, just about in a teaspoon of oil and 1/4 inch of water
and it works very well with much less fat.
I pre boil sausage and other meats that I use for pot roast and then
skim the fat before I season and cook.
Just a few hints on coping with the cholesterol problem.

---------------------BLETLACH (LEAVES---------------------
1/4 ts Salt
1 c Flour
1 c Water
4 Egg
Butter
--------------------------FILLING--------------------------
1 lb Cottage cheese
1 Egg yolk
1 tb Sugar
1 pn Salt
Sift the flour with the salt and salt. Beat eggs
well, add water. Add flour gradually to eggs, stirring
constantly, until batter is smooth and thin. Heat a
small frying pan, Teflon makes life easy, and smear
with a very thin coat of butter. When pan is hot, put
in about 1/4 cup batter, tilt pan until it covers.
Cook until it begins to blister and is shiny. Turn out
on table cloth. I always use one, but I guess you can
use paper towels. Continue until all the batter is
used. Should make 10 or 12 circles.
Mix the filling ingredients well. Now it's time to
'build your blintzas' as my daughter used to say. Put
some filling off center on each circle. Fold the
bottom up and the top down. Tuck in sides, or fold
in, before you put the op down. Confused? Just try it,
it's easy.
At this point you can store them in the fridge, or
freeze them. They freeze well. To finish, just fry
them in a small amount of butter, until browned
Great, served with sour cream. They are a bit
complicated, but not really difficult. and they freeze
so well. Use well seasoned pams, 6".

I turned around and I wasn't there. I went looking for myself and
got lost. I bumped into a blind man and he guided me along the path to
my house. All that useless effort exerted a sinking sensation so I ran to
the bathroom. While washing my hands a chance glimpse in the mirror
showed where I was. I was relieved. ( hahahahaha )

Title: Wire Sculpure
Categories: Kidstodo
Servings: 1
Stiff wire Wood bases
Thin wire Staple gun
Have child decide on a subject for their sculpture. Help them make a base
form from the stiff wire. Then have them wrap the form with the thin wire
until he or she is satified with the shape. Staple form to a wooden base
with staple gun. (coat hanger wire works well for a base, and something
like phone wire works great as the thinner wire.)

Title: Tips on herbs
FRESH HERBS greatly enhance the flavor of meats and
vegetables and diminish the need to season with salt. Many
herbs can be grown in small gardens outdoors or in window
pots indoors year round. When seasoning with fresh herbs
use twice the amount of fresh as you would of dried. Fresh
herbs may be dried for later use.
TO DRY HERBS wash and pat dry. Tie in small bundles; hang in
a cool, airy attic or shady breezeway. When leaves are
brittle, strip leaves from stems and place in an airtight
container. After 24 hours check for moisture. If moisture
is present, air dry again for a few more days. Store dried
herbs in an air tight container in a cool, dark place. To
make dried herbs into powder, whirl in the blender.
TO DRY HERBS IN THE MICROWAVE wash and pat semi-dry with
paper towels; pull off leaves. Place on several layers of
paper towel or on a paper plate.Cover with an additional
paper towel. Microwave on full power 30 seconds; let stand
10 minutes. Herbs should be brittle. If not, microwave a
few seconds longer. Store in an air tight container. Check
for moisture the following day. If moisture is present,
microwave again for a few more seconds. Store in an air
tight container in a cool, dark place.
TO DEVELOP THE MAXIMUM FLAVOR OF DRIED HERBS soak them for
20-40 minutes in some liquid yo will be using in a recipe,
such as broth, water, wine, safflower oil, olive oil,
tomato sauce, vinegar or lemon juice.

Yeah, I meant "snakesnot" and not "snailsnot". But who
knows, it just may not be too bad either. I'll bet Karen
could come up with a recipe for it. We need to
see about getting Karen her own cuisine tv show.
How much "snot" can one conference take? <g> I guess Karen came after I
went off line, but I do know that she is on all the cuisine conferences,
so yes, perhaps a nice TV show of her own would be nice. We could say we
knew her "when".<g>

Title: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
Categories: Ice cream
Servings: 24
2.00 c Milk
1.75 c Sugar
0.50 t Salt
2.00 c Half & Half
1.00 T Vanilla Extract
4.00 c Whipping Cream
1.00 ea Pillsbury Chocolate Chip
1.00 x Cookie Dough (large size)
1.00 x Or use homemade cookie dough
Take the chocolate cookie dough out of fridge and
leave out till needed. Scald milk until bubbles form
around edge. Remove from heat. Add sugar and salt.
Stir until dissolved. Stir in half and half,
vanilla, and whipping cream. Cover and refrigerate 30
minutes. Freeze as directed by your ice cream
machine's instructions. Once ice cream has been
through the entire ice cream machine process and is
now a chilled soft ice cream, add the chocolate chip
cookie dough. Just break up the dough as best you can
with your hands and drop it in small clusters into the
soft ice cream. Try to mix it around to ensure that
the cookie dough is evenly distributed throughout the
ice cream. Put the ice cream in the freezer for
several hours until hardened.
Origin: We pretty much took our vanilla ice cream
recipe and added the chocolate chip cookie dough. You
can easily use the Pillsbury cookie dough, but it's
cheaper and better to use homemade. Our Mrs. Field's
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough recipe makes this a
especially yummy!

SBA to JW:
Interesting stuff, this Glogg of yours. It inspired
me to create the following:
Red wine and spice
With some fruit is nice
Two glasses or more
And you drink from the floor
You'll howl like a banshee
And then get delirious
Too much of this Glogg
Is exceedingly serious
But Glogged out or not
I'm just not the type
To suggest that you can't fry
Tomatoes that are ripe!
JW to SBA:
A little is great
It loosens the tongue
I squinch my eyes and pat my pate
Savoring memories I once hung
While this company of such delight
Helps development of this fable
Though I fight with all my might
I must dance upon this table
So I swing and so I sway
With all the might that I find able
Feet, you must hear me I say
I don't wannabe under this table.
Duh glogg's aw gone (hic!)
