                 Salmon Lasagna with Roasted Pepper Sauce

Recipe By     :Cooking at a Glance - Pasta
Serving Size  : 8     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-10 Oct 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  12            ounces  skinless fresh or frozen salmon fillets
                        or two 6-1/8-ounce cans boneless,
                        skinless salmon,
                        drained and broken up
  2              large  red sweet peppers
     1/3           cup  Pesto (commercial or homemade)
  9                     dried lasagna noodles
     1/2           cup  dairy sour cream
  1         tablespoon  all-purpose flour
     1/4      teaspoon  salt
     1/8      teaspoon  pepper
  1                     beaten egg
  1                cup  ricotta cheese
  1       8 ounce package  cream cheese, softened

Thaw salmon, if frozen. Halve the red sweet peppers; remove stems,
seeds, and membranes. Place peppers, cut-sides down, on a foil-
lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 425 degrees oven for 20-25
minutes, or till skins are blistered and dark. Remove from baking
sheet. Immediately place in a paper bag. Close bag; let stand about
30 minutes to steam the peppers so skins peel away more easily.
(Or, place the bag in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.) Using a sharp
knife, remove the skin from the peppers, pulling it off in strips.
Discard skins. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.

Meanwhile, prepare pesto as directed. Set aside. If using fresh or
thawed frozen salmon fillets, in a large skillet bring about 1 1/2
cups water to boiling. Meanwhile, measure the thickness of the
salmon fillets. Add salmon to skillet. Return just to boiling and
reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 4-6 minutes per 1/2 inch thickness.
Drain, discarding cooking liquid. Use a fork to break fish into bite-
size pieces. Set aside.

In a large saucepan or pasta pot bring 3 quarts water to boiling.
Add pasta. Reduce heat slightly. Boil, uncovered, for 10-12 minutes,
or till al dente, stirring occasionally. (Or, cook according to
package directions.) Immediately drain. Rinse with cold water; drain
again.

In a food processor bowl or blender container, process or blend the
roasted peppers till nearly smooth. Add sour cream, flour, salt, and
pepper. Process or blend till combined. Set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl combine egg, ricotta cheese, and cream cheese.
Stir in pesto and cooked or canned salmon.

TO ASSEMBLE: Lightly grease a 2 quart rectangular baking dish. Arrange
3 of the noodles in the bottom of the dish. Spread with one third
(about 1 1/4 cups) of the cheese mixture. Repeat layers twice. 
Carefully spread roasted red pepper mixture over the top layer.

TO SERVE: Bake, uncovered, in a 375 degrees oven for 30-35 minutes, or
till heated through. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Pesto:
Source: Cooking at a Glance - Pasta
Makes 3/4 cup

A little pesto has a lot of flavor, so for a simple side dish, plan on
using about 1/4 cup of pesto tossed with 4 ounces dried or 8 ounces
fresh pasta, cooked and drained.

1  1/2 cups firmly packed fresh basil leaves
   1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
   1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
   1/4 cup pine nuts or slivered almonds
1      large clove garlic, sliced
   1/8 teaspoon salt
   1/4 cup olive oil

In a food processor bowl or blender container combine basil, Parmesan
cheese, Romano cheese, pine nuts or almonds, garlic, and salt. Pour in
olive oil or cooking oil. Cover and process or blend with several
on/off turns till a purée forms, stopping the machine several times and
cleaning the sides with a rubber spatula.

Store any remaining pesto in 1/4-cup portions, wrapped and frozen for
up to 1 year or refrigerated for up to 2 days. Before using, bring to
room temperature.

NOTES : "We always have plenty of pork sausage around so when I need a
quick supper, I use this handy recipe," relates Virginia. "The colorful
vegetables give this dish a perky look to match its flavor."

Bobbie's Note: Very good, but next time I would use a few less potatoes. I
used Southern Style frozen hash browns (small cubes).

      Savory Garlic Ginger Chickpea Fritters with Thai Peanut Sauce

Recipe By     :Jaquetta
Serving Size  : 0     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-10 Oct 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1                can  chickpeas
  1           teaspoon  ginger
     1/2      teaspoon  finely minced or crushed garlic
     1/4           cup  finely chopped green onion
     1/2         small  to medium ripe lime, juice only
                        Salt, cayenne pepper, and cumin to taste
  2        Tablespoons  Consorzio mango salad dressing -- (2 to 3)
                        OR mango chutney
  2        Tablespoons  flour (up to 3) -- Enough to bind and
                        thicken
                        **Peanut Sauce**
  4        tablespoons  Chunky or smooth peanut butter
  2        tablespoons  coconut milk
                        A little bit of mint if you'd like -- same
                        goes for a
  1               dash  chili oil

Drain your chickpeas then mash the them with a fork in a large bowl and
add the minced ginger and garlic (you can use more or less of both
depending on how strong you like your flavors, same goes for the spices).
Next add the salt and spices along with the mango dressing and lime juice.
Now add enough flour so that the mixture sticks together when you remove
the fork, but not so much that it gets too gluey or doughy. Make it sure
it's all mixed well.

Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a nonstick pan on medium heat
and put tablespoon of the chickpea mixture in the pan and press it down
with your spatula so it takes on patty form. Be sure to turn the fritters
often and raise the heat once they begin to look cooked. This will give
them a nice a nice slightly crispy outside and chewier inside.

*For added texture and crunch, cornmeal or a grind of roasted pistachios
or walnuts are also nice to sprinkle on the fritters while they're frying
For the peanut sauce, simply combine your peanut butter, coconut milk,
mint, and chili oil and microwave or heat on the stove top until smooth
and creamy.

NOTES : Serve over couscous or rice and top them with a bit of peanut
         sauce. They're great as an entree with or as an appetizer with
         simply the peanut sauce. They're also really good the second day
         cold!

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  4 3/8             lb  (2 kg) sour cherries
     1/2           cup  (125 ml) water
  1               Tbsp  (15 ml) bottled lemon juice
  7               cups  (1750 ml) granulated sugar
  2            pouches  (170 ml) BERNARDIN Liquid Pectin

For the best possible results - use only fully ripe fruit, exact
measures of ingredients indicated and add ingredients in order
specified. Combine fruit and sugar, boil hard 1 minute and then stir
in liquid pectin.

Wash, stem, pit and pulse cherries in a food processor or finely chop.
Combine with water in a stainless steel saucepan and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover and boil gently 10 minutes. Remove from heat.

Pour prepared cherry mixture into dampened Jelly Bag or cheese cloth-
lined sieve suspended over a deep container. Let drip to collect
juice. For quicker results, squeeze bag; juice maybe cloudy.

Place 7 clean 250 or 236 ml mason jars in a boiling water canner; fill
with water, cover and boil hard 10 minutes* to sterilize jars. Boil 
lids 5 minutes--not longer--to soften sealing compound. Keep jars and 
lids in hot water until ready to use.

Measure 31/2 cups (875 ml) cherry juice into a large, deep stainless
steel saucepan. Stir in sugar. Over high heat, bring mixture to a full
rolling boil. Stirring constantly, boil hard 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Immediately stir in Liquid Pectin, mixing well. Skim foam.

Pour jelly into hot sterilized jars to within 1/2 inch (0.5 cm) of top
rim (headspace). Using nonmetallic utensil, remove air bubbles. Wipe
jar rims removing any stickiness. Center lids on jars; apply screw
bands securely until fingertip tight. Do not overtighten. Place jars in
canner.

Cover canner; return water to a boil. At altitudes up to 1000 ft (305m),
process -boil filled jars- 5 minutes.* Remove jars without tilting. Cool
upright, undisturbed 24 hours; DO NOT RETIGHTEN screw bands. After 
cooling check jar seals. Sealed lids curve downward. Remove screw bands; 
wipe and dry bands and jars. Store screw bands separately or replace
loosely on jars, as desired. Label and store in a cool, dark place.

Makes about 7-250 or 236 ml jars

*At altitudes higher than 1,000 ft (305 m) increase processing time.

Art's Addition:   Be sure to adjust your processing time according to
                  altitude. Most charts are calculated to altitudes of
                  1,000 feet or less. You must increase the processing
                  time by five minutes for altitudes of 1,000 to 3,000
                  feet, ten minutes for 3,001 to 6,000-feet, fifteen
                  minutes for altitudes of 6,001 to 8,000-feet etc.

  1                cup  canned pumpkin
  1              large  egg
  2        tablespoons  granulated sugar
  2        tablespoons  golden brown sugar
     1/4           cup  all-purpose flour
  2        tablespoons  all-purpose flour

NOTES : Fritters are a favorite snack in South Africa and are well suited
              to breakfast.  They are traditionally fried in oil, however,
              butter adds a crispy crust which is enhanced by cinnamon sugar.

--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                        Peanut oil for frying
  1              pound  sweet potatoes -- peeled and cut in
                        1/2-inch pieces
                        boiling water
     1/2           cup  flour
  1                     egg -- beaten
                        Salt and freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
                        

In a heavy saucepan or deep-fryer, heat about 2 inches of oil to 375°.
Grate the sweet potatoes into medium-sized bowl; cover them with boiling
water and let them stand for 15 minutes. Drain off the water and slowly
add the flour, egg, salt and pepper, stirring to make sure that they are
well mixed. You should have a thick paste that will hold its shape when
picked up in a tablespoon. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit of warm
water. If it is too thin, add a bit more flour.

Drop the mixture, a few tablespoons at a time, into the hot oil and cook
the fritters for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they float to the surface,
turning them once to make sure that they are slightly browned on each
side. Drain on absorbent paper and serve hot.

Washington Post   12/20/95"

NOTES : Author's Note: The sweet potato fritters that begin this night's
        menu are a South African invention. They, like variations of this
        dish throughout the continent, combine the sweet potato, a New
        World tuber, with an African culinary technique.

        One of the tricks to great fritters is to use clean oil and to
        make sure that the oil is hot enough before beginning. These
        fritters can be accompanied by a spicy hot sauce when served as an
        appetizer course. Alternatively, they can be lightly dusted with
        sugar and served as a dessert.

  12                    pitted prunes
  12                    dried apricots
  8             pieces  dried mango
  8                     dried apple rings
  1             medium  orange -- juice of
  2        tablespoons  orange liqueur -- (25 mL)
                        or sweetened orange juice
  1           teaspoon  ground cinnamon -- (5 mL)
  1              pinch  ground nutmeg
  4                     whole  cloves
                        **Sauce**
     1/3           cup  cream cheese -- (75 mL)
     1/2           cup  plain yogurt -- (100 mL)
  1         tablespoon  liquid honey -- (15 mL)

Place all of the fruit in a shallow glass dish.

Mix the juice of the orange, liqueur or sweetened orange juice and the
spices; pour over fruits. Cover and leave to macerate (like marinate 
but for fruit instead of meat) for 1 hour, turning occasionally.

Remove the fruit and reserve the liquid.

Thread the fruit onto four wooden skewers that have been cut in half (or
you can use short ones).  Place in a steamer over boiling water; cover 
with a tight-fitting lid and steam for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile mix the reserved liquid with the cream cheese, yogurt and 
honey.

Remove the skewers from the steamer and serve with the sauce.

Description : "Dried fruits have an intense flavor and take on other
flavors such as orange and alcohol with wonderful results. Serving them as
kabobs makes them even more tempting.

                   Split Pea Fritters (Meenakshi Vada)

Recipe By     :
Serving Size  :       Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-10 Oct 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1                cup  yellow split peas
  3               cups  hot water
  1       1 inch piece  fresh ginger -- peeled and roughly chopped
  2                     fresh hot green chilies -- roughly chopped
  2          teaspoons  all-purpose flour
  1           teaspoon  salt
  2        tablespoons  water
     1/2           cup  chopped shallots
     1/2           cup  finely chopped toasted cashew nuts
     1/4           cup  finely chopped fresh cilantro
  12                    curry leaves -- or 24 dried, finely shredded
                        vegetable oil for deep frying

Pick over peas, removing any stones or misshapen or discolored peas.  Place
in a bowl and add the hot water.  Soak for 3 hours, then drain.  Transfer
the peas to a food processor or blender.  Add the ginger, chilies, flour and
salt and process until the peas are pureed, add the 2 tablespoons of water
during the processing.  The mixture should be neither too coarse nor too
smooth, with a texture similar to that of cooked hot breakfast cereal or
cooked polenta

Transfer the batter to a bowl and fold in the shallots, cashew nuts,
cilantro, and kari leaves, if using.  Check the seasonings, adding more
salt if necessary.

In a deep fryer or large frying pan, pour in oil to a depth of 1 1/2 inches
and heat to 375?.  Meanwhile, spread a piece of plastic wrap about 10 inches
long on a work surface.  Scoop out heaping tablespoons of batter and place
them on the plastic wrap 2 inches apart.  light press each portion of batter
to form a patty.

When the oil is ready, using a spatula, gently slip the patties, one at a
time, into the oil.  Cook only as many patties at one time as will fit
comfortably in a single layer.  Fry, turning frequently, until both sides
are browned, about 5 minutes.  Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper
towels to drain.  If serving them hot, keep them warm in a low oven while
making the remaining fritters.  Serve hot or at room temperature or with
spicy sauce.

           Split Pea Fritters in Spicy Sauce (Pakode ki Bhaji)

Recipe By     :
Serving Size  : 0     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-10 Oct 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/4           cup  vegetable oil
  2                     yellow onions -- sliced
  1           teaspoon  cumin seeds
  1         tablespoon  peeled and grated fresh ginger
  1         tablespoon  ground coriander
  1           teaspoon  minced garlic
     1/2      teaspoon  ground turmeric
  2                     tomatoes -- chopped
  3               cups  water
     1/2        recipe  Fragrant Fresh Split Pea Fritters with
                        Cashew Nuts
  1           teaspoon  garam masala
  2        tablespoons  chopped fresh cilantro

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm the oil.  When hot, add
the onion and cumin and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are
light brown, about 7 minutes.

Add the ginger, ground coriander, garlic and turmeric.  Let the spices
sizzle for a few seconds.

Add the tomatoes and 2 cups of the water and bring to a boil over high
heat.  Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the sauce has the
consistency of light cream, about 10 minutes.  Add the split pea fritters
and the remaining 1 cup water.  Mix well, re-cover, and simmer for 10
minutes longer to blend the flavors.  Sprinkle with garam masala and
cilantro and serve at once.

Cuisine:  "Indian Food"

Serving Ideas : Serve with a rice dish, a stir fried vegetable, and salad.

NOTES : This dish was originally created to use up split pea fritters, 
but the new invention was so tasty that Indian cooks began making the 
fritters just for this dish.  Pakode ki bhaji really benefits from keeping.
The fritters slowly soak up sauce and turn even more flavorful, moist and
plump.  To hasten the process, presoak the fritters in hot water for five
minutes before adding them to the sauce.
