Recipe By : Thai; a Cookshelf book; 2004
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-05 May 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 large ripe mangoes
1 lime
1 stalk lemon grass -- chopped
3 tablespoons superfine sugar -- (45 mL)

Halve the mangoes; remove the pits and peel off the skins.
Slice the flesh into long thin slices and arrange them in a shallow layer
in a wide serving dish.

Remove a few shreds of the rind from the lime for decoration.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze out the juice.
Place the juice in a small pan with the lemon grass and sugar.
Heat gently without boiling until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Remove from the heat and cool completely.

Strain the cooled syrup into a pitcher and pour evenly over the mango
slices.

Scatter the lime strips over top; cover with plastic wrap and chill before
serving.

Cook's tip: To serve this dessert on a hot day, particularly if it is to
stand for a while, place the dish on a bed of crushed ice to keep the fruit
and syrup chilled.

                               Marinated Grilled Vegetables

Recipe By : Rocco Dispirito
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-05 May 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 piece fresh ginger -- peeled and smashed
2 cloves garlic -- minced
1 tablespoon parsley -- chopped
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/2 cups olive oil
salt -- to taste
freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
2 yellow bell peppers -- halved and seeded
2 red bell peppers -- halved and seeded
3 zucchini -- halved lengthwise
3 yellow squash -- halved lengthwise
3 red onions, cut into 1- inch rings -- crosswise
2 bunches scallions, roots and greens trimmed 1-inch

In a very large bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, parsley, vinegar and olive
oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside 1/2 cup of the marinade.
Season the vegetables with salt and pepper and toss well to combine. Let the
vegetables marinate about 1 hour.

Preheat the grill. When it is too hot to hold your hand six inches above the
grill for more than 5 seconds, it's ready. Grill the vegetables until
charred and tender, about 8 minutes for zucchini, squash and scallions, 10
minutes for peppers and 15 minutes for the red onions.

Transfer the vegetables to a large serving platter and drizzle with the
reserved marinade. Serve at warm or room temperature.

                             Martha's Low-Carb Shrimp Stuffed Peppers

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-05 May 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Dreamfields spaghetti
Chopped onions
2 garlic cloves -- minced
Hot pepper flakes
Paprika
Mushroom broth -- or beef broth
1 pound medium/large headless shrimp
Soy milk
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 yellow bell peppers
2 red bell peppers

I boiled up a small bunch of Dreamfields spaghetti and when it was done,
took scissors and cut it into 2-inch pieces more or less.

I started olive oil in a hot skillet, added a 'handful of chopped onions',
and 2+ cloves minced garlic.
I tossed in some hot pepper flakes, paprika, and lowered the heat so the
garlic didn't burn.
Added some mushroom broth (beef broth would be good too), and let this just
cook down a little.

Add the (peeled) shrimp and cook just until it turns pinkish, not quite
done.

I added some soy milk (heavy cream would have been ideal), and I did cheat
with about 1/4 cup of cornstarch to thicken it up. If it's too thick too
soon, keep the mushroom broth handy to thin it down. Soy milk gives a nutty
taste, but if you have real milk, that'll work too.

Drain the spaghetti and add it to the shrimp skillet.

Now, it would be great to stop here and just add a salad and some bread.
But, lo-carb, you know,,, so I stuffed the peppers with it and put them in
a saucepan that could go in the oven, added more mushroom base with water
to go about 1/2 way up the sides of the peppers. I didn't cook it long
enough for the peppers to be tender, but it should cook about 45 minutes on
350F., making sure the sauce doesn't boil out.

(Another method would be to parboil the peppers before stuffing to speed up
the baking process.)

These were very rich, delicious, and I had leftover 'innards' (spaghetti
and shrimp mix) to rewarm the next day.
