                Easy Fisherman’s Stew - Mediterranean 3 pts

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 9-03 Mar 2006

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion -- chopped
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1 cup bottled clam juice

tomatoes. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until
the potatoes are almost done.

NOTES : This wonderful stew is hearty and nourishing, the perfect antidote
to winter’s chill. You can put aside any fear you have of cooking fish with
this recipe. Stews keep fish moist and flavorful, and require less work
than grilling or broiling. A Mediterranean classic, this stew takes 25
minutes or less to prepare, and it’s loaded with health benefits. The
tarragon and parsley add a great flavor, but you can also substitute it
with oregano, paprika, or a touch of saffron.

                       Easy Seafood Paella For 1

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 9-03 Mar 2006

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1 cup uncooked short grain white rice [not arborio]
1/2 cup clam juice -- (optional)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 pinch saffron
1 teaspoon mild paprika
1 can Hunt's Tomato Sauce -- (small can)
[not tomato paste]
3 Bay scallops
3 clams -- rinsed and scrubbed
5 mussels -- scrubbed
5 large shrimp -- (deveined), shell on
1/2 cup frozen green peas
Salt and pepper to taste

Use a Paella pan or a shallow stainless steel pan (with handles).

Heat oil in large paella pan over medium-low heat until hot. Add garlic and
cook just until garlic sizzles. Do not let it go brown, as it would be
bitter. Add rice, cook and stir 10 minutes or until rice is translucent.
Stir in clam juice, wine, lemon juice and paprika; mix well.

Mix saffron in 1/4 cup hot water in small bowl; stir until saffron is
dissolved. Add mixture to rice. Stir in tomato sauce. Bring slowly to a
boil. Turn down to low heat. Do not cover. Add vegetable broth if the
liquid evaporates too fast. Cook until rice is al dente. Stir in scallops,
peas, clams, mussels and shrimps. Cook until shrimps shells turn pink,
mussels and clams open and peas are soft. Serve as is, in cooking pan.

N.B. : Paella pans are made of polished carbon steel. Use on gas or
electric stovetops or place on the grill. The thinness of the steel allows
the heat to penetrate quickly to produce the socarrat (caramelized, hard
crusted and crunchy thin layer of rice that forms on the bottom of a proper
paella pan during cooking). Paella pans do not have lids. They require hand
washing and immediate drying then the thin application of non-toxic oil
such as mineral oil or vegetable oil to prevent rust. If rust occurs,
remove it with steel wool and apply oil. (www.surfasonline.com)

                             Easy Sheppard Pie For 1

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 9-03 Mar 2006

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups instant mashed potatoes
[Betty Crocker or Shiriff]
1 egg -- beaten
1 cup milk 3%
Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup grated Parmesan
For the meat filling:
1 tablespoon finely chopped onions
1/2 pound mixed ground meats
[beef, veal and pork]
1 dash paprika
1 pinch ground chilli peppers
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional: 1/2 cup whole kernel corn
[canned, blanched and rinsed]

Prepare mashed potatoes according to package instructions.
(Optional: Add one egg and use whole milk.)
When ready, set aside.

For the meat filling:

Fry ground meats in a hot pan with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add
onion and spices. When meat is browned, lower heat and cook until all
juices are nearly evaporated. Then (and only then), add salt to
taste. Set aside.

Spread half the mashed potatoes in a buttered baking dish. Spread on
top meat mixture (after adding kernel corn to it, if desired). Cover
with other half mashed potatoes.
Sprinkle grated parmesan on top.
Rewarm in oven at 350 degrees F. for 10 minutes. Broil for 2 minutes or
until Parmesan melts and turns golden.

This is a French Canadian staple. In Quebec it is called "Pâté
chinois". According to Wikipedia, its name comes from "China Pie".
Some say that French Canadians brought back this recipe from the town
of China (Maine) to the province of Québec. In France, it is called
"Hachis Parmentier". Antoine-Augustin Parmentier, a pharmacist,
brought potatoes back in favour. Until then the French thought that
potatoes were good only to feed pigs (!). The French Canadian version 
contains kernel corn, while the French one
doesn't.

Preparation time: 10 minutes. Cooking: 15 minutes.

                           Eggs Florentine For 1

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 9-03 Mar 2006

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 box frozen spinach
2 eggs
1/4 cup 35% cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Paprika
For the béchamel sauce:
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup milk -- (6 ounces)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Pepper

Cook spinach according to instructions. Drain and reserve.

Cook eggs until hard-boiled (15 minutes). Run cold water over them; then
scale them and cut them lengthwise.

Chop spinach and mix them with 35% cream.

In a lightly buttered oven dish, spread spinach mixture and set egg halves
on top. Cover with béchamel sauce. Sprinkle paprika on top. Rewarm at 350
degrees F. (uncovered) for 10 minutes; then broil until golden. Serve
immediately.

Béchamel Sauce:

On low heat mix flour and butter until bubbly. Mix thoroughly. Remove from
heat source. Add cold milk and stir rapidly, avoiding clumps. Bring back
to heat source and stir on medium heat until sauce is thickening. Add
grated parmesan cheese and pepper. Parmesan cheese is salty so I suggest
you don't add too much salt to the béchamel. Should clumps form you can
strain the sauce through a sieve.

Side dish: A green salad.
