Jerk/BBQ chicken - serves 2

2 chicken legs
4 ripe tomatoes
1 onion - sliced
1 tablespoon jerk seasoning
Coriander leaves
jerk BBQ or smoky BBQ sauce

Combine all ingredients except sauce in a shallow casserole dish or lasagne type dish, cover and leave to season for at least an hour.

Heat oven to 350f, 180c, gas mark 4 and cook covered for about 1-1.5 hours.

Remove chicken and place on an oven tray, brush with either jerk BBQ or smoky BBQ sauce or mix of both, depending on your liking for heat/spice, turn oven up to 400f, 200c, gas mark 6 and cook for 20 minutes.

I add a spoonful of BBQ sauce to the gravy left in casserole dish and mix with pasta. You could also use it over potatoes and other veg.

Ooo, the Jerk/BBQ Chicken sounds awesome.

I have a whole chicken in the oven roasting at the moment seasoned with fresh cracked pepper, garlic sea salt, seasoning salt, a tad of poultry seasoning and roasted garlic rubbed on the breast meat under the skin. I then filled the cavity with onion, celery (makes it super moist), earth balance (didn't have butter) and dark beer (Scrimshaw). I mixed the left over olive oil from roasting the garlic with potatoes, carrots, celery and onion as well as more roasted garlic, some seasoning and more beer in a separate dish.

The next few hours are torture. The house smells amazing and I can't wait to try it. I haven't tried rubbing the meat under the breasts with roasted garlic before.

Fried Tomatoes ( a Sunday afternoon delight)

-1 medium tomato for each person. Can be green or red tomatoes, if you use red make sure they are firm and not soft.
- a dash of sugar
-Cornmeal
-Bacon drippings (the stuff left over after you cook bacon)

Slice tomatoes 1/4 inch thick, place a pinch of sugar on each. roll in cornmeal coating each side. Fry in bacon drippings until coating turns golden brown. Place on paper towel to remove excess grease, Serve up with a nice glass of Iced tea.

WE NEED MORE RECIPES ;D

We have 35ish so far. We really are going to need at least 100 to have a really great cookbook!

Please remember that by submitting a recipe you are helping to make this project go forward, and will be helping to send someone to the AMG who otherwise would not be able to attend.

We would like to have alot of different people submitting recipes. If you haven't submitted one yet, please do so! Don't cook? No problem, ask your family or friends about a good recipe to submit!!!

Have you considered including a couple of pages with recommended restaurants from across the different areas? From those of us who make reservations better than we cook? Then, if one is traveling, they will have a reference

perhaps in the cookbook thread you could post a category/recipe listing so that people know what to offer to fill up sections - so we don't all submit meatloaf recipes or something LOL

did you scour our previous recipe threads? or do we need to re-submit those?

Great catch Leather on the other recipe threads. Yes, I am supposed to be creating a framework of categories and submissions (and what we need where) to submit to the Grant's Committee (who will be taking over the project in the near future)

The roast chicken was good Snow. Though the roasted garlic got even more mellow which was a little sad, lol. I have done better and real butter is a must I have learned with my method of roasting chicken. The best beer to use I have decided is guiness. Beer and potatoes, YUM!

Mean Girls is an awesome movie!



Dammit to Hell. I was told in a bar one night that my Gay card was revoked because I didn't catch a reference to Mean Girls. I worked so hard ot get it back, and now I suppose I must surrender it again. I'm trying so hard to be gay, with the butt sex and all but obviously there is more to it than that. Sigh.

In the early days of my forty-year publishing career I was forced to edit several cookbooks by professional cookbook writers--although I had to double-check the instructions when I wanted to boil an egg at home--and you would be stunned at the multiple errors I discovered:  ingredients that were missing in the list but  not in the instructions and vice versa, ingredients out of order in which they were used, tomatoes in the list but no indication what precisely were to be done with them, etc.  Instructions out of order.  Essential ingredients and steps completely missing.

All recipes should be thoroughly edited before publishing.  The best cookbook publishers even kitchen-test every recipe.  There are notorious cases of wildly incorrect ingredient amounts that ended in disaster and embarrassing erratum slips having to be inserted into finished books.  I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, but to avoid legal repercussions: Caveat emptor.

Potato & Onion Latkes

This is the recipe I use, but because I tend to make greater quantities I exponentially the recommended amounts. If you want to end up with a quantity that supposedly serves 8, you can use these amounts. However, it would 8 very small appetites. The quantities below I usually at least double when serving 4 people.
2 eggs
3 cups grated, drained potatoes (I use all kinds of potatoes)
4 tablespoons  of grated onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespooms cracker meal or matzoh meal
1/2 cup fat or butter

Beat eggs and add the pototoes, onion, salt, pepper and meal.

Heat half the fat or butter in a brying pan and drop the potato into it by the tablespoon. Fry until browned on both sides. Keep pancakes hot until ready to serve. Add more fat or butter as needed. Usually I fry with low-fat oil.

I serve the latkes with a salad which has everything in it -- at least 2 lettuces, tomato and anything else I feel like throwing in. Simple vinagrette dressing. Makes a good compliment to the pancakes. For beverage I usually serve champagne or other sparkling wine which again like the salad makes a good contrast with the fried pancakes. And I make lots of...

Recipe #2 Edy's Fried Chicken

You can do this with any chicken parts you like. I generally prefer breasts, legs and thighs. (That's the kinda guy I am...)

Hard for me to specify quantities here as I go by "that looks right" method. Ingredients are:

chicken parts
flour
low-fat cooking oil
brown paper bag or plastic one is ok too
eggs
milk
garlic salt to taste

Fill bag with flour.  
Mix eggs and milk well in large bowl which add garlic and any other flavoring you like.
Dip each piece of chicken thoroughly into the mix in the bowl.
Then drop pieces of chicken into the bag with the flour and make sure chicken is throughly coated by shaking bag and reaching in to turn pieces around in bag. You may want to wear latex gloves when breading the chicken because after a lot of dipping the chicken you may begin to develop a coating on your hands that can really stick.

Put flour-coated chicken into a large bowl or pan and refrigerate so the flour is sticking firmly to the chicken by the time you are ready to start frying. Leave it that way for an hour or longer. (Can do it overnight if you want to prepare in advance of cooking.

When ready to fry, heat cooking oil long enough so that if you throw a few drops of water into the pan the drops will pop. Use a good deep pan if possible.

Begin putting in the pieces of chicken leaving enough room for each to fit comfortably in the pan. Keep turning them over and checking for nice, golden brown color (or darker if you like 'em really well done.) I usually do a massive quantity. It's great eaten hot but cold works too. And it freezes wonderfully if you want to put some away for another time. I do it with skin on chicken parts and love it when it gets good and crusty. Yum.

Also serve this with a big everything salad and sparkling wine.

Enjoy!

Are you supposed to do something with the tomatoes like slice them or chop them up or do you just throw them into the pan whole and cook it?

Oops..sorry about that, I usually quarter them and throw them in. Also score the legs a couple times..almost to the bone and the longer you marinate the better.

Hope you enjoy!

There are notorious cases of wildly incorrect ingredient amounts that ended in disaster and embarrassing erratum slips having to be inserted into finished books.
if my first attempt at pumpkin pie with crumble streusel topping goes okay, and the first attempt at butternut squash soup doesn't kill us, I'll post those recipes. The butternut squash cake with maple/pecan icing that I made a couple wks ago turned out well, so I have high hopes. ;D

lemon bars
« Reply #183 on: November 09, 2010, 01:28:27 am »
i do have a two recipes worth posting right away.

one, for my friend JeffInNYC, is for lemon bars:

Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour

4 eggs
1 1/2 cups white sugar
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 lemons, juiced

Directions
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2.In a medium bowl, blend together softened butter, 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup sugar. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
3.Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm and golden. In another bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/12 cups sugar and 1/4 cup flour. Whisk in the eggs and lemon juice. Pour over the baked crust.
4.Bake for an additional 20 minutes in the preheated oven. The bars will firm up as they cool.
5.When cooled, sprinkle lightly with sifted powdered sugar and store in the refrigerator

the other is for Amish Friendship Bread. I used to have a starter for this while I was living in OH and made muffins every 10 days for a couple years. (search for "Amish friendship" and "leatherman' and you'll see all the times I talked about them LOL) Not only did my friends love them, but I got better treatment for my partner while he was in the hospital in the oncology ward after I delivered batches of muffins every couple of weeks to the nurses. LOL I gave a batch to my doctor every Christmas, and took  bunches home to NC for the holidays. The last batch I made, before giving away my starter, went to my doctor just before I left his office for my final appt with him and moved down to SC. I just put together a new starter today and will be back in the muffin baking business soon. LOL

Amish Friendship Bread
Beginning with a starter amount of batter which you "feed" over a course of several days, you are able to bake a loaf or muffins every 10 days. Keeping a portion of the batter to start the next cycle, there's always some leftover to pass out to friends.

If you don't have access to a starter batch of batter, you can start your own.

Making your own starter - Active Dry Yeast Method
2 cups Warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 packet (or 1 tablespoon) Active dry yeast
2 cups All-Purpose flour

Into a clean, 2-quart glass or ceramic bowl, jar or crock, pour the water. Dissolve first the sugar, and then the yeast. Gradually, stir in the flour. Cover the container with a clean cloth (not plastic wrap or waxed paper -- you want the air to be able to get through) and put it in a warm place (between 80 and 85 degrees, ideally). The mixture will start to "work" almost immediately with small bubbles forming on the surface. Stir it once per day and, in three to five days, the bubbling will subside. Give it a good, healthy sniff and, when it has a clean, yeasty, sour smell, it's ready. Give it a final stir (it should have the consistency of pancake batter), cover loosely and refrigerate. The first time you make a cake with this traditional starter, it won't be quite as sweet as it will be the second time. You can either add a bit more sugar to the cake batter to compensate or try it as is.

You can just let the container of batter sit at room temperature normally. However, if the ambient temperature gets too hot and you might be afraid of the batter spoiling, store it in your refrigerator. Just remember to let it warm up to room temperature before baking with it, or feeding it. Also allow it to sit out after feeding until it gets bubbly once again before putting it back into the refrigerator.

Feed the starter you don't use in the cake with equal parts of milk, sugar and flour, enough just for you. Or, in friendship spirit, make enough to divide and share.If you give some away, remember to feed your starter so you'll always have the two cups you need for the recipe and a cup left over to grow some more.

Desserts:
don't forget Teddy's Yabba-Dabba-Do Squares ;) cause they sound really good. I plan to try them once we eat through our two pumpkin pies. And since we polished off a whole pie last night, I should be making the YDD squares in another day or two.  :D

Yabba-Dabba-Do Squares

1/4 c. butter
1 (10 oz.) pkg. marshmallows or 4 c. miniature marshmallows
6 c. Fruity Pebbles cereal

Melt butter in large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted; remove from heat. Add cereal and stir until well coated. Using buttered spatula or waxed paper, press mixture evenly into buttered 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan. When cool, cut into squares.

Not sure anyone else will like these, but I do  :-\ One of the few things I "cook" despite the fact that they are a pain in the butt to make

Snack/Nachos

Bag or two of Doritoes
Package of Mild Mexican Velveeta
Can of Frito Lay Bean Dip

You assemble them one chip at a time..

Cube the velveeta into "micro" cubes...
Spread a small dab of bean dip on each Dorito chip
Place a cube of cheese on top of the bean dip on each chip
Layer on a platter

Nuke in the microwave for a minute or two...Long enough for the bean dip to heat up and the cheese to melt; not too long because you don't want the chips to get too soft
 
Serve with jalepeno slices, salsa, guac...

Probably sounds hokey, but they really are good  ;)
