Hi To all,
Is there a method to store extra mushrooms in case I don't want to use
the entire quantity at one go as mushrooms spoil very quickly?
Thanx. I would appreciate it if someone writes back.

I have used this recipe many times and have never had it fail. it is
super easy
This is a must, you must use Duncan Hines BUTTER Cake mix.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Using a bundt pan, spray with Pam and then dust entire pan with sugar,
i do this for ever cake instead of flour.

Duncan Hines butter cake mix
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sour cream
Mix the three together with mixer.
Then add 4 eggs one at the time mixing real good after each addition.
Mix a good 2 minutes after last egg
then add 1/4 cup poppy seed and mix in
pour batter into bundt pan and cook for 50 minutes or until tested done
this is such a good cake and my grandkids love it to

Caroline, thank you for the lovely fondue recipe.  It sounds
scrumptious!

I made a Cheesy Meatball Fondue recipe last night and the dipping sauce
is lovely.  I'm sorry it is all in metric, but I am not all that good on
conversions.  This would also be great as finger food at a party not
using the fondue set.  I made it with the Sweet Chilli Sauce.

Cheesy Meatball Fondue



675gms lean ground beef mince

1 tablespoon finely chopped onion

½ cup fresh breadcrumbs

Salt and pepper

110gms Kraft cheddar cheese (diced small)

1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce (or tomato paste)

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

2 teaspoons dry mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1/1/4 cups chicken stock

2 teaspoons flour

Juice from 1 orange



Mix together beef, onion and breadcrumbs.  Season meat mixture with salt
and pepper and divide into 30 balls.  Flatten each ball and place a
piece of cheese in centre then mould meat around the cheese sealing it
well to enclose cheese completely.  Lightly fry meatballs in olive oil.



To make the tangy sauce, put chilli sauce (or tomato paste), red wine
vinegar, honey, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and stock into a saucepan
and simmer for 10 minutes.



Blend flour smoothly with orange juice then stir into the sauce and
simmer for 1 minute, stirring constantly.  Transfer to a warm fondue
pot.



Serve with meatballs.



Serves 6-8

I still do things the way I was taught. Sort through the beans or peas
and pick out any bad looking ones. Rinse them in cool water and drain.
Cover them with enough water to totally cover the beans plus about 2
cups of water and soak them for 8 hours or so or overnight. I've always
left them sit on the counter overnite. Drain and rinse them the next
day and add them to your recipe. Lots add a bit of baking soda to the
soak too as they claim it helps with the gasiness...to put it a NICE
way! Ha!
Good Luck!

hi Mustafa,
risolles or kroket (croucette ?) might be a bit different, because
they are using flour made skin, like woonton, a Chinese delicacy

while perkedel [or bergedil like our Malaysian friend in Thailand]
did not using flour made skin, but straight to the fry pan with hot
cooking-oil

Subject: [Kraft-Meals- Made-Simple] CUBAN POTATOE BALLS

Cuban Papas Rellenas recipe - Stuffed Potatoes
Cooked papas rellenas pictured below*

2 lbs large potatoes (peeled and cut into quarters)
1 lb picadillo (seasoned ground beef)

Vegetable oil for frying

1 cup dry bread crumbs
4 eggs
1 tsp salt

Add salt to a pot of cold water, and boil the potatoes until they are
soft. Drain the potatoes, and then mash them, then set aside to
allow them to cool.

Separate the egg yolks from the whites in two bowls. Mix the egg
yolks into the mashed potato mixture, whisk the egg whites for a
minute.

Take a 1/4 of a cup of the mashed potatoes, and form it into a ball.
Make a dent in the ball, to give it more of a bowl shape. Fill the
indentation with a tablespoon of picadillo, and then reseal it.

Reshape the potato as a ball again. Dip the ball in the egg whites,
then roll the ball around in bread crumbs until it is coated. For a
better coating, or for a crunchier texture, you may dip the ball into
the egg whites again and coat it with another layer of bread crumbs.
Refrigerate the potato balls for at least four hours before frying.

To fry, pour enough oil into a skillet or frying pan to cover half of
the balls, the oil should be at least 350°. Place several balls into
the frying pan and cook on each side until golden brown, usually 2-3
minutes, taking care not to overcook. Drain the stuffed potatoes on
paper towels, do not stack them.

The other cooking method is to deep fry the papas rellenas at 375°
until golden brown, they cook best deep-fried when they are frozen.

To Make the Picadillo:

1 lb ground meat
1 large onion, chopped
2-3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small can tomato sauce
1/4 cup dry white wine
Pimiento stuffed olives
Salt and pepper to taste

In a large skillet, brown the ground meat, onions and garlic. If meat
is not too lean, pour out whatever fat you render.

turn heat down to medium low. Add the tomato sauce and wine. While it
simmers, chop up the pimiento stuffed olives and add to meat mixture,
it is ok to add a little bit of the brine, if you wish. Adjust the
seasonings per taste.

   hi Pat ...

   we, normally did not cook first the minced beef. just raw, mixed with mesh
   potatoes and fry till golden brown.
   choice of meat will be important too. using minced beef, sirloin buttor rump
   will be better. some of the fat makes it even delicious

Pat asked how much a stick of butter is and I saw someone else was
having a problem working out an equivalent ingredient.

I found a site that has a dictionary of terms
http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/equivalents_substitutions.asp
   where you can find an equivalent ingredient or at least an
explanation for some things.

Pat, I also found this explanation of a stick of butter. I figure our
Australian 125 g is close enough. Well, in my slapdash kitchen it
would be!

1 stick of butter = 1/4 pound
1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup
1 stick of butter = 8 tablespoons
1 stick of butter = 4 ounces
1 stick of butter = 113 grams

Hope this helps.

RED VELVET CUPCAKES

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
2 large eggs, room temperature

I don't know  how anyone  else does with there extra mushrooms but I freeze mine
in storage containers. and I take out what I need at the time. I buy mushrooms
when the store marks them down then I freeze them into servings.  or just freeze
the whole bunch together.

Hi To all,
Is there a method to store extra mushrooms in case I don't want to use
the entire quantity at one go as mushrooms spoil very quickly?
Thanx. I would appreciate it if someone writes back.
Shilps.

Laura, I go to the candy store and buy disected coconut, then I buy three boxes
of Jello coconut pie filling. I open the boxes and add 5 cups of milk and the
disected coconut and cook it till it boils. I remove from heat and add about one
and a half teaspoons of coconut flavoring and pour it into a baked pie crust.
Everyone who has bought one says they are the best homemade pies that they have
ever tasted. They are made from my home but I make them just like I told you. My
husband says they are the best when they set in the fridge overnight. Hope this
helps . Shelba

I am Shelba. I love to cook. I live in Illinois. Just me and my husband
and dog. (Tucker). I came from a big family of 10 kids and helped my
mother with all the chores till I left home. I have always cooked since
I was old enough to stand on a chair at the stove and help my mom. I
have 5 children of which only one is a girl. The guys love to cook as
well as my daughter. In fact some are as good of cooks as their wives.
