                Gebraaide Piesangs (Fried Bananas)

Recipe By : Kook en Geniet; S. J. A. de Villiers; 1962
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Bananas -- (piesang)
Butter -- (botter)
Lemon slices -- (skyfies suurlemoen)

Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise. Melt a little butter in
a frying pan; add the bananas and fry until golden brown.

Serve with lemon slices as a garnish for meat.

Roughly translated by Hallie from Kook en Geniet by S. J. A. de Villiers;
1962.

Hallie's notes: We don't usually use the lemon slices and we serve it on
toast rather than with meat. Occasionally we squeeze a little lemon juice
over the bananas.

This recipe is from a book my mother-in-law sent me shortly after I was
married. Here is the actual wording that was in the book for those of you
who understand Afrikaans; anyone who knows Dutch can also probably read it.

...
Skil die piesangs en sny hulle in die lengte middeldeur.
Smelt 'n klein hoeveelheid botter in 'n braaipan en braai die piesangs
daarin tot hulle goudbruin is.
Dien met skyfies suurlemoen op of as garneersel by vleis.

                             Ghee

Recipe By :
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
8 ounces butter -- (2 sticks)

In a heavy skillet, over medium to medium low heat, heat the butter until
it is completely melted. Watch as the butter boils, first with large
bubbles and white milk solids floating on the surface, then with only a
fine white foam filling the entire surface. Stir occasionally. Soon, small
patches of golden brown will appear on the surface, and the overall color
of the butter will change from yellow to golden. Push aside the foam
periodically to check the color of the sediment. When the sediment turns
light brown, remove from the heat. (See note) Decant into a jar with a
tight lid. Warm, if desired, for serving over rice.

Note : If you heat until the sediment turns dark brown, the ghee will lose
it's flavor and taste like vegetable oil.

Yield : 1 cup

Recipe By :
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
2 lemons -- both zest and juice
4 tablespoons ginger root -- peeled and chopped

In a non reactive saucepan, combine water and sugar, bringing to a boil.
Simmer for 5 minutes or until sugar is dissolved.

As this syrup simmers, zest one of the lemons and squeeze the juice from
both, picking out any seeds but leaving bits of pulp.

Add lemon zest and juice, plus ginger to syrup and let steep until cool.
(For a smoother texture, strain out the ginger- but not necessary)

Freeze, according to the directions of ice cream machine.

NOTES : Variations: Ginger - Peach Sorbet - simply add 1/4 cup sugar to
the above syrup mixture. While the syrup is steeping, puree 5 or 6 very
nice, full flavored fresh height of the summer peaches, peeled, in the food
processor. Stir this puree into the syrup. Cool and freeze.

                            Greek Chicken

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 chicken breast halves, boneless -- cut
into 2 or 3 pieces each
2 lemons -- juiced, plus
1 lemon -- sliced and seeded
5 potatoes -- peeled and
cut into chunks
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup water
20 garlic cloves -- peeled, leave whole
Oregano...loads of the stuff!
[at least 1 tablespoon or more]
Salt and freshly ground black pepper -- to taste

Put the potato pieces in a casserole dish large enough to hold them; mix
the lemon juice and the olive oil together and pour over the potatoes.
Sprinkle liberally with the oregano, toss in the garlic cloves and salt and
pepper.

Place in a 350F oven for about 30 minutes until the potatoes are nearly
done. Lay the chicken pieces over the potatoes; add more oregano over all
the chicken; lay on the reserved lemon slices. Return the dish to the oven
and cook until the chicken is tender. Re-arrange the chicken, turn on
broiler and brown for a few minutes.

The smell of the garlic and oregano will certainly tease the taste buds!

                     Grilled Flank Steak in Orange Marinade

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Marinade:
12 ounces orange marmalade -- (1 jar)
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 tablespoons A-1 steak sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

3 pounds flank steak
Salt and freshly ground pepper -- to taste

1. In a large bowl, combine marinade ingredients and mix well. Set aside
1 cup of the marinade (see step #3 & #4) and add the flank steak to the
remaining marinade and coat well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

2. Preheat BBQ grill so it's pretty darn hot. Toss the steak on the grill
pour some of the marinade on top. After a minute to get a good sear,
flip the flank steak over and pour a bit more marinade on that side.
Discard any leftover marinade (since it had been on raw meat). Turn BBQ
down to medium. Flip again after 4 more minutes, and then remove after 4
additional minutes. This will be fairly rare; add a 1-2 minutes per side
for more well done.

3. While you let the flank steak sit for 5 minutes, microwave the cup
of marinade that you put aside earlier so it is hot.

4. Spread half of reserved marinade across the steak and cut again the
grain into thin slices. Provide the last of the marinade for those that
want a little extra on their pieces and start chowing down!

                Grilled Grouper with Mango Jalapeno Sauce

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 6 ounce grouper fillets -- skinned
1 teaspoon ground coriander
Coarse salt -- to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
6 cups finely chopped cabbage
Mango Jalapeno Sauce
2 cups pureed canned Indian mangoes
1 jalapeno chile pepper -- stemmed,
seeded and chopped
1/3 cup good quality olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Season the grouper fillets with the coriander and salt. Place a large
nonstick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned grouper
and sear for about 2 minutes or until the bottom of each fillet is lightly
browned. Turn and sear the other side. Roast in the oven for about 10
minutes or until the fish is set but still moist in the center.

While the fish is roasting, heat the oil in a large saute pan over high
heat. Add the mustard seeds and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2
minutes or until the seeds begin to pop. Add the cabbage and saute for
about 4 minutes or just until the cabbage begins to wilt. Remove
immediately from the heat. Tent the cabbage lightly with foil to keep warm.

Divide the cabbage among the 6 dinner plates. Place a grouper fillet on top
of each portion. Drizzle with some of the Mango Jalapeno sauce over the
fish and around the edge of the plate and serve.

NOTES : The skin of a grouper has an extremely strong flavor, so it should
be always be removed before cooking. The flesh is very lean but firm, which
makes it almost foolproof in the kitchen. Use grouper often both for its
flavor and availability. Grouper is a subspecies of sea bass, so it can be
substituted easily with or for sea bass.

1 1/2 teaspoons soft brown sugar

about 10 minutes, basting several times with a brush. Serve immediately,
garnished with the lemon wedges.
