Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 3-1/2 cups fresh cauliflowerets

Lemon Rice infused with bright, fresh lemon and zippy dill and the option of
butter and feta for an easy, tantalizing side you will want to serve with
everything!

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 tablespoons olive oil
  * 1/2 chopped onion
  * 1 1/2 cups basmati rice well rinsed and drained*
  * 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  * 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  * 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
  * 1/2 cup water
  * 1/4 cup lemon juice
  * 3/4 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  * 1 TBS EACH fresh dill, parsley OR 1 teaspoon EACH dried
  * 1/4 tsp EACH pepper, dried oregano, ground cumin

ADD LATER (optional)

  * 1-2 tablespoons butter or more to taste
  * 1/4 cup feta
  * lemon juice to taste

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Sauté onions: Heat olive oil in a large sauce pan (with a lid)
      over medium high heat. Sauté onions until soft, approximately 5
      minutes.
   2. Sauté rice: Add rice, garlic and lemon zest and sauté for one
      additional minute. Stir in chicken broth, water, lemon juice and
      all seasonings.
   3. Simmer: Bring to a boil then reduce heat to LOW, cover, and cook
      12-15 minutes, or just until water is evaporated and rice is
      tender, stirring once at 8 minutes and replacing lid. If your
      liquid is evaporated but your rice is still quite undercooked
      (keeping in mind it will steam for 10 minutes once removed from
      heat), then add a little additional liquid and continue to cook.
   4. Let rest: Once water is evaporated, remove from heat, stir, cover
      and let sit 10 minutes.
   5. Add lemon: Taste and add 1-2 tablespoons additional lemon if
      desired (I add one tablespoon). Season with additional salt and
      pepper to taste.
   6. Optional: stir in 1-2 tablespoons butter or more to taste. You can
      stir feta into entire rice pot or add it to individual servings.

Notes:
You can also use brown rice and adjust the amount of water/broth and
cook according to brown rice directions.

    <title><![CDATA[Red Lentil Curry]]></title>
    <link>https://www.earthli.com/recipes/view_recipe.php?id=331</link>
    <pubDate>Sun, 29 Dec 2024 23:19:52 +0100</pubDate>
    <description><![CDATA[Published by kath on 29. Dec 2024 23:19:52
------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the kitchen of <a href="https://rainbowplantlife.com/vegan-red-lentil-curry/" title="Try out the earthli WebCore!">Rainbow Plant Life</a>

This luxurious, fan-favorite Red Lentil Curry will get you truly excited about
lentils! It’s an ultra-creamy and gourmet Indian-inspired meal made in one pot
with pantry staples. Whip it up on a weeknight in 45 minutes!

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 tablespoon refined or virgin coconut oil, or a neutral-flavored
    oil
  * 4 cloves garlic, minced
  * 2-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and minced or grated
  * 1 tablespoon minced fresh turmeric, or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  * 1-2 serrano peppers, diced (see recipe note below on spice level)
  * 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  * 1/2 teaspoon Indian red chili powder (if you only have regular chili
    powder, which is a blend, use 1 teaspoon)
  * 2 teaspoons curry powder
  * 1 teaspoon garam masala
  * Kosher salt or sea salt to taste (I use about 1 tsp kosher salt, and
    add more at the end)
  * Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  * 1 cup (180-190g) red lentils, or split red lentils (the split
    variety will cook a bit quicker)
  * 2 cups (480 mL) low-sodium vegetable broth
  * 1 (14-ounce / 400g) can crushed tomatoes (or half of a 28-ounce can)
  * 1 (13.5-ounce/400 mL) can full-fat coconut milk
  * 3 tablespoons unsweetened creamy almond butter
  * 1/2 a small lemon, juiced
  * 1/2 cup (~8g) fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  * For serving: Basmati or Jasmine rice and Indian flatbread such as
    roti, paratha, or naan

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Rinse the lentils in cold water until the water runs clear.
   2. Heat a large, deep skillet or large saucepan over medium-high heat
      and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the
      garlic, ginger, fresh turmeric (if using), and Serrano pepper and
      cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent garlic from
      burning.
   3. Add the cumin, coriander, chili powder, curry powder, garam
      masala, salt, and black pepper to taste, and cook for 30 to 60
      seconds until fragrant, tossing frequently to prevent burning. If
      using ground turmeric instead of fresh turmeric, add the ground
      turmeric now, along the the rest of the spices.
   4. Pour in the vegetable broth, and use a wooden spoon or spatula to
      scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add in the
      lentils and the crushed tomatoes and mix well. Reduce the heat to
      low and cover the pan with a lid. Simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or
      until the lentils are cooked through and have mostly softened. If
      you find that the lentils are not quite soft after 25 minutes, add
      a few spoons more of broth or water and cook for another 5
      minutes.
   5. Remove the lid and stir in the coconut milk, almond butter, along
      with salt and pepper to taste Continue cooking on low heat,
      uncovered for 5 to 8 minutes, until the curry has thickened and is
      creamy.
   6. Finally, stir in the lemon juice and cilantro, and turn off the
      heat. If you want your lentils to even creamier and more on the
      puréed side, use an immersion blender to lightly purée the
      curry.
   7. Serve the curry with rice and/or Indian flatbread and garnish with
      additional cilantro. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days.

*Kath's notes:

   1. I almost always make a double-batch of these lentils, but I don't
      double to coconut milk since I like a somewhat thicker
      consistency.
   2. I can't usually find the Serrano peppers. I did find ground spicy
      red pepper that I use in place of the fresh peppers.
   3. I also almost never have almond butter on hand and just omit it.
   4. If I have fresh baby spinach on hand, I usually throw some in
      after adding the coconut milk.

Corn Dog Mini Muffins Recipe
Slightly adapted from Iowa Girl Eats, makes 48 muffins

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1/2 cup melted butter
  * 1/2 cup sugar
  * 2 large eggs
  * 1 cup buttermilk
  * 1 cup corn meal
  * 1 cup all purpose flour
  * 1/2 tsp baking soda
  * 1/2 tsp salt
  * 1 pound Lit'l Smokies, cut into 1 inch pieces

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F
   2. Spray the cavities of two 24 cavity mini muffin pans with spray
      oil, or line the cavities with cupcake liners. 
   3. In a medium bowl, whisk the butter and sugar together until well
      combined. 
   4. Add the eggs to the butter mixture and whisk. Whisk in the
      buttermilk. 
   5. In a small to medium bowl, whisk together the corn flour, all
      purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. 
   6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in two batches,
      stirring to combine between each addition. 
   7. Using a tablespoon cookie scoop or a tablespoon, divide the batter
      among the 48 cavities in the pans. If you use cupcake liners,
      spray each one lightly with spray oil, one at a time, just prior
      to adding the batter. 
   8. Push the 1 inch pieces of the Lit'l Smokies into the batter so
      that it stands straight up.
   9. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until they are set and slightly golden
      on the edges. 
   10. Cool the muffins in the pan for five minutes before serving.
       Leftovers should be refrigerated and then reheated in the
       microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.

    <description><![CDATA[Published by kath on 19. Feb 2020 11:32:46
------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the kitchen of <a href="https://foodnouveau.com/recipes/how-tos/how-to-make-an-authentic-bolognese-sauce/">Food Nouveau</a>

Makes 12 servings.
This rich, authentic Bolognese Sauce is based on a registered Italian recipe for
Ragù Bolognese. This meat-centric sauce is completely different from the bright
red, tomato-based North American version of the sauce: it’s creamy, aromatic,
and surprisingly delicate in flavor. Italian Bolognese Sauce produces a simply
unforgettable pasta dish!

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
  * ¼ cup (60 ml) butter
  * 1 medium-sized yellow onion, diced
  * 4 small, or 2 large, carrots, peeled and diced
  * 2 celery stalks, diced
  * 4 garlic cloves, minced
  * 1 cup (250 ml) diced pancetta (about 4.5 oz/125 g)
  * 1 tsp (5 ml) kosher salt, or sea salt
  * Freshly ground black pepper
  * 2.2 lb (1 kg) lean ground meat (beef, veal, or a combination)
  * 1 cup (250 ml) dry white wine (such as Chardonnay)
  * 2 cups (500 ml) whole (3.25%) or partly skimmed (2%) milk
  * 1 can (28 oz/794 g) diced tomatoes, or crushed tomatoes
  * 1 cup (250 ml) beef broth

To serve
Freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Dried pappardelle, tagliatelle, linguine, or spaghetti
Fresh basil leaves (optional)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. In a large pot set over medium heat, add the butter and the oil
      and stir until the butter is melted. Add the onion, carrot,
      celery, garlic, and half of the salt (½ tsp/2 ml) and sauté for
      5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are soft. Add the
      diced pancetta and cook for a further 10 minutes, until the
      pancetta is golden and crisp.
   2. Add a third of the ground meat, stirring and breaking lumps with a
      wooden spoon between each addition. Adding the meat gradually
      allows the excess water and liquid to evaporate, which is key for
      the meat to caramelize properly. Once the meat is cooked, add a
      third more of the meat, stirring and breaking lumps as you go.
      Repeat with the remaining meat. When the meat is cooked and no
      lumps remain, set a timer to 10 minutes and keep cooking the meat,
      stirring from time to time. You want the meat to caramelize and
      even become crispy in spots. Golden bits of meat will stick to the
      bottom of the pot, which you will deglaze with white wine later.
      Watch over the pan at all times as you don’t want the meat to
      burn.
   3. Add the white wine into the sauce pan. With a wooden spoon, scrape
      all the brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Push the meat
      all around to make sure you scrape it all off. By the time
      you’re finished, the wine will be evaporated (2 to 3 minutes).
      Be careful not to let the meat stick to the pot again—lower the
      heat if necessary.
   4. Add the milk, tomatoes, beef broth, remaining salt (1/2 tsp/2 ml)
      and a generous grinding of black pepper. Bring to a boil and then
      lower to the lowest heat setting. Half-cover and simmer gently for
      2.5 to 3 hours, setting yourself a timer to give the sauce a stir
      every half hour. Start monitoring the texture of the sauce after 2
      hours: the sauce is ready when it’s thick like oatmeal. It
      should look rich and creamy, and no liquid should separate from
      the sauce when you push the sauce to one side. Taste and adjust
      the seasoning if needed.

      Set aside.
   3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla.
   4. With a wooden spoon, stir in the sour cream, bananas and chopped
      nuts.
   5. Stir in the dry ingredients.
   6. Pour into a greased loaf (8.5"x4.5") pan.
   7. Bake for approximately 50 minutes or until pick inserted into the
      middle of the bread comes out clean.

From the kitchen of <a href="http://joythebaker.com/2014/05/the-best-brown-butter-chocolate-chip-cookies/#comments">Joy the Baker</a>

Here’s why these are the very BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies around.
Using butter two ways (browned and softened) helps create a chewy and crisp
texture.  Chewy on the outside and crisp around the edges.
Adding just a touch more than 2 cups of all-purpose flour helps maintain the
not-totally-flat-and-frustrating quality of the cookie.
Brown sugar and an extra kick of molasses lend depth to the sweetness.
Dark chocolate and a touch of sea salt pair bitterness and salty tang to the
sweet cookies.
They’re perfect because of brown butter, sea salt… 

Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 cup (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  * 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  * 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  * 1 teaspoon molasses
  * 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  * 1 large egg
  * 1 large egg yolk
  * 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  * 1 teaspoon salt
  * 1 teaspoon baking soda
  * 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
  * 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
  * coarse sea salt, to sprinkle on top

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
   2. Place half the butter (8 tablespoons) in a medium skillet. Melt
      the butter over medium heat, swirling it in the pan occasionally.
      It’ll foam and froth as it cooks, and start to crackle and pop.
      Once the crackling stops, keep a close eye on the melted butter,
      continuing to swirl the pan often. The butter will start to smell
      nutty, and brown bits will form in the bottom. Once the bits are
      amber brown (about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes or so after the sizzling
      stops), remove the butter from the burner and immediately pour it
      into a small bowl, bits and all. This will stop the butter from
      cooking and burning.  Allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
   3. Beat the remaining 1/2 cup butter with the brown sugar for 3 to 5
      minutes, until the mixture is very smooth.
   4. Beat in the vanilla extract and molasses.
   5. Pour the cooled brown butter into the bowl, along with the
      granulated sugar. Beat for 2 minutes, until smooth; the mixture
      will lighten in color and become fluffy.
   6. Add the egg and egg yolk, and beat for one minute more.
   7. Add the flour, salt, and baking soda, beating on low speed just
      until everything is incorporated.
   8. Use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips and pecans and finish
      incorporating all of the dry flour bits into the dough.
   9. Scoop the dough onto a piece of parchment paper, waxed paper, or
      plastic wrap. Flatten it slightly into a thick disk, and
      refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. About 15 minutes before
      you’re ready to begin baking, place racks in the center and
      upper third of the oven and preheat your oven to 350°F.
   10. Scoop the dough in 2 tablespoon-sized balls onto the prepared
       baking sheets. Leave about 2 inches between the cookies;
       they’ll spread as they bake.
   11. Sprinkle the cookies with sea salt, to taste — as much or as
       little as you like.
   12. Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 minutes, until they’re golden
       brown. Remove them from the oven, and allow them to rest on the
       baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before moving them.

Serve warm; or cool completely, and store airtight at room temperature
for several days. For longer storage, wrap well and freeze.

From the kitchen of Classical Turkish Cooking - Ayla Algar

A dish that was first prepared for me by the lovely Kumbu Kim. It is simple, but
warming, light and delicious.

Serve with basmati rice and maybe a little Sweet Thai Chili Sauce to spice it
up.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 cauliflower (2 pounds or ca. 1 kg)*
  * 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  * 1 cup chopped onions
  * 1/3 pound (ca. 150 grams) ground lamb, beef or poultry*
  * 3 sprigs thyme**
  * 3 sprigs marjoram**
  * 1.5 cups meat/chicken stock or water
  * Salt and freshly ground pepper
  * Flat-leaf parsley

*I don't really measure these ingredients. I just use whatever I have --
any cauliflower and the standard-sized package of ground meat. The
recipe is not very fussy. 

**I use dried herbs if I don't have fresh, which is often. Especially in
the winter.

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Remove the stalk and leaves from the cauliflower. Blanch it in
      boiling salted water just a few minutes. Refresh with cold water
      and set aside.***
   2. Heat the butter in a heavy pan and cook the onions until they
      begin to brown around the edges.
   3. Add the meat and cook, stirring until it browns.
   4. Divide the cauliflower into florets and stir into the pan.
   5. Add herbs, meat/chicken stock or water, salt and pepper; cover and
      cook gently for 30 or 40 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender.
   6. Five minutes before the cooking is finished, stir in a handful of
      parsley.
   7. During cooking check for liquid and add some if necessary. Adjust
      seasoning, take out the herb sprigs and serve hot.

I like to serve it with basmati rice and maybe a little Sweet Thai Chili
Sauce to spice it up.

***I almost never blanch the cauliflower. I break it into florets and
add it to the pot after I finish browning the onions and meat. I don't
like the cauliflower to get too mushy.

From the kitchen of <a href="bit.ly/1edaPbX">Tasty Yummies</a>

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 1/2 cups diced butternut squash
  * 1 1/2 cups dried organic chick peas
  * 1 small onion, chopped
  * 2 cloves garlic, minced
  * 1 can organic coconut milk 
  * 1 bunch of fresh spinach, rinsed and roughly chopped (you could also
    use kale here)
  * 1 1/2 cups freshly shelled peas (you can use frozen here, if you
    wish)
  * 1-2 large tomatoes, diced
  * 3 cups vegetable broth or water
  * 3 tablespoons yellow curry powder 
  * 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  * handful of fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (save some for serving)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Rinse and sort through the dry chickpeas. 
   2. Cut the skin off the squash, remove seeds and cut into 1 inch
      square cubes. 
   3. Add all of the ingredients to your slow cooker besides the peas
      and spinach. 
   4. Cook on high for 6 hours. 
   5. About 20-30 minutes before serving add in the fresh peas and
      spinach, and give it a stir. 
   6. If your sauce seems to be a bit too thin or watery when it is done
      cooking, you could make a quick mix of cornstarch and hot water
      and pour a tablespoon or two of the mixture into the crock pot,
      allow it to simmer a bit longer. This will thicken it right up.
   7. Serve over brown basmati or jasmine rice topped with fresh
      cilantro, mint or basil and maybe even some shredded coconut.

From the kitchen of Smitten Kitchen

This is also just a great chocolate cake recipe. The cake is moist and
delicious!

Makes 20 to 24 cupcakes

You can bake the cupcakes a week or two in advance and store them, well wrapped,
in the freezer. You can also fill them before you freeze them. They also keep
filled — or filled and frosted — in the fridge for a day. (Longer, they will
start to get stale.)

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the Guinness Chocolate Cupcakes

  * 1 cup stout (such as Guinness)
  * 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  * 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process)
  * 2 cups all purpose flour
  * 2 cups sugar
  * 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  * 3/4 teaspoon salt
  * 2 large eggs
  * 2/3 cup sour cream

Ganache Filling

  * 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  * 2/3 cup heavy cream
  * 2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
  * 1 to 2 teaspoons Irish whiskey (optional)

Baileys Frosting 

  * 2 1/2 to 4 cups confections sugar; enough to reach desired
    consistency
  * 1 stick (1/2 cup or 4 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  * 3 to 4 tablespoons Baileys (or milk, or heavy cream, or a
    combination thereof)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Make the cupcakes:

   1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 24 cupcake cups with liners.
   2. Put the butter with the beer in a sauce pan over medium heat and
      bring to a simmer.
   3. Whisk in cocoa powder until smooth. 
   4. Cool slightly.
   5. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
   6. In a mixer bowl, beat the eggs and the sour cream together.
   7. Add the beer/butter/cocoa mixture and beat to combine.
   8. Add the flour mixture and beat briefly just to combine.
   9. Using a rubber spatula, fold the batter until completely combined,
      making sure to incorporate little pockets of flour on the bottom
      so that the batter is of equal consistency everywhere.
   10. Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 of the way if you want flatter
       cupcakes and 3/4 if you want domed.
   11. Bake for about 17 minutes, or until a toothpick or a slim knife
       inserted into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean.
   12. Cool completely to room temperature.

Make the filling:

   1. Chop the chocolate and transfer it to a heatproof bowl.
   2. Heat the cream until simmering and pour it over the chocolate.
   3. Let it sit for one minute and then stir until smooth.
   4. Add the butter and whiskey (if you're using it) and stir until
      combined.

Fill the cupcakes:

   1. Let the ganache cool until thick but still soft enough to be
      piped.
   2. Using your 1-inch round cookie cutter or an apple corer, cut the
      centers out of the cooled cupcakes. (I went about half to 2/3 of
      the way down and used a small knife to help me extract the
      centers.)
   3. Put the ganache into a piping bag with a wide tip and fill the
      holes in each cupcake to the top.

Make the frosting:

   1. In a large mixer bowl, whip the butter for several minutes until
      very light and fluffy. 
   2. Slowly add the powdered sugar, letting it incorporate, until the
      butter becomes thicker and stiff (you will know when this
      happens).
   3. Slowly drizzle the Bailey's (or milk or cream or a combination
      thereof) and whip until combined.
   4. Ice and decorate the cupcakes. (It was difficult to spread the
      frosting with the opening for the ganache. It was easier to pipe
      little stars of frosting with a piping bag.)

<http://www.turkishcookbook.com/2005/03/pilaf-with-orzo.php>; goes well with
"Flat Beans with Olive Oil"
<https://www.earthli.com/recipes/view_recipe.php?id=235>.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 3/4 cup long-grain rice
  * 3 tbsp orzo (check the pasta aisle)
  * 1 cup hot water or chicken stock
  * 2 tbsp butter
  * 1 tsp salt
  * Pinch pepper

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wash the rice several times with warm water and drain. Then cover the
rice with hot water and leave for about 15 minutes, then drain. Place
the orzo in a medium sized pot. Stir continuously on medium-low heat,
until the colour turns light brown. Add the butter and rice in the
cooking pot. Saute the rice with butter for 2-3 minutes while stirring.
Pour 1 cup of hot water or chicken stock in it. Add salt and pepper.
Turn the heat to low and cook until the rice absorbs all the water.

Take the cooking pot away from the heat. Open the lid, place a clean
kitchen towel across the top of the pot on the rim and put the lid on
it. Let the Pilaf stand for about 5 minutes. We call this brewing time.
Then serve.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the kitchen of <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Potato-Plum-Dumplings/Detail.aspx">Linda Mclean</a>

"Sweet dark plums are wrapped in a potato dough, and boiled before rolling in
sweetened toasted bread crumbs. My Austrian grandmother made these delicious
dessert dumplings for us every fall. These take some time to make, but to me,
they're well worth the effort."

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dough

4 large russet potatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter, softened
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup farina
1 cup all-purpose flour, or as needed

Filling

12 Italian prune plums
12 cubes white sugar

Bread Crumbs
 
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup white sugar
1 cup dry bread crumbs

Garnish

Additional melted butter and sugar for garnish (optional)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Scrub potatoes, and place them into a large pot with enough water
      to cover. bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 40
      minutes. Drain, and cool. When potatoes are cool enough to handle,
      peel, and press through a ricer into a large bowl. Set aside to
      cool. This part of the process can be done as much as one day in
      advance. 
   2. In a large bowl, mix together the prepared potatoes, salt, egg,
      and 1 tablespoon of butter until well blended. Gradually stir in
      the farina, and then the flour. If dough is still wet, more flour
      can be mixed in. Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead
      until smooth, about 5 to 10 minutes. 
   3. Split open each plum where it cracks, and remove the pit. Replace
      each pit with a sugar cube, and close. 
   4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness.
      Cut into twelve 3 inch squares. Place one plum into each square,
      and bring the corners around to the top. Pinch together all of the
      seams to seal. 
   5. Bring a large pot of water to a slow boil. Place about 4 dumplings
      into the water at a time. Once they float to the surface, continue
      to cook them for about 5 more minutes. Transfer cooked dumplings
      to a covered bowl, and keep warm. 
   6. Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of butter in a small skillet over
      medium heat. Stir in bread crumbs, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Continue
      to cook and stir until browned. Remove the bread crumbs to a
      plate, and roll warm dumplings in the mixture until entirely
      coated. To serve, place a dumpling or two on a plate, sprinkle
      with a little sugar and a little extra melted butter, if desired.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

  * 2 cups of milk
  * 1/2 cup brown sugar
  * 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Melt butter in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add
      onions and garlic and cook, stirring often, until softened, about
      4 minutes. Add spices and stir for a minute more.

      You might want to add a teaspoon of salt.
   5. Serve in individual bowls. Sprinkle the top of each with toasted
      pumpkin seeds.

*To make pumpkin purée, cut a sugar pumpkin in half, scoop out the
seeds and stringy stuff, lie face down on a tin-foil lined baking pan.
Bake at 350°F until soft, about 45 min to an hour. Cool, scoop out the
flesh. Freeze whatever you don't use for future use.

From the kitchen of The South Beach Diet Cookbook (orange)

Yummy frittata with lots of veggies. I usually use about twice the amount of
peppers and mushrooms as called for in the recipe and sometimes an extra
zucchini, too. One of the ingredients in the recipe is liquid egg substitute. I
never have this on hand and have a hard time finding it, so I just throw in a
couple of extra eggs depending on how many vegetables I've used.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 tbsp trans-free margarine
  * 1 onion, chopped
  * 2 zucchini, thinly sliced
  * 4 large mushrooms, chopped
  * 1/2 large red bell pepper, chopped
  * 1/2 teaspoon salt
  * 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
  * 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  * 4 large eggs, at room temperature
  * 1 cup liquid egg substitute
  * 1 1/2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Place the broiler rack in the lowest position (6" to 7" inches
      from the heat source) and preheat the broiler.
   2. Melt 1 tablespoon of the margarine in a large oven-safe nonstick
      skillet over medium heat.
   3. Add onion, zucchini, mushrooms, bell pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of the
      salt, the thyme and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper.
   4. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes, or until the
      vegetables are tender and no juices remain in the pan.
   5. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, egg substitute, the remaining
      1/4 teaspoon salt, the remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper and the
      cheese, if using.
   6. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of margarine in the skillet with
      the vegetables over very low heat.
   7. Pour in the egg mixture.
   8. Cook, uncovered and without stirring for 15 minutes or until only
      the top remains runny,
   9. Place the skillet under the broiler and cook for 2 minutes, or
      until the eggs are just set.
   10. Slide the frittata onto a large serving plate to serve.

From the kitchen of Yankee Harvest Recipes

Makes 4 fresh delicious hearty servings

These Ukrainian stuffed peppers cook on top of the stove, in a pot. Long and
slow, low heat cooking, is the secret to this delicious Ukrainian stuffed pepper
recipe. 

ETHNIC COOKING HINT: Sour cream is a staple in every Ukrainian kitchen.
Practically every meal has something made with sour cream. A very tasty
horseradish sauce is easy to make and is delicious anytime. See below for the
Ukrainian Sour Cream and Horseradish Sauce recipe.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 8 medium sized fresh sweet peppers (green, red, orange, yellow or a
    mix)
  * 1/2 lb. freshly ground beef, (or 1 lb. beef, if you do not like
    pork)
  * 1/2 lb. freshly ground pork
  * 1 raw large, fresh egg
  * 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice (washed).
  * 2 28 oz. cans of crushed tomatoes (or 9 to 10 peeled, garden fresh
    tomatoes).
  * 1/3 cup of chopped, fresh yellow onion
  * 1 medium fresh sweet carrot, finely shredded
  * 2 Tablespoons fresh sweet Hungarian paprika
  * 1 teaspoon salt
  * 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  * 1-1/2 Tablespoons granulated sugar (do not omit)
  * 2 whole Bay leaves
  * 1 cup water, only if needed by the recipe, (see below)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Cut about 1 inch off the top of each pepper. Discard seeds and
      membranes. Finely chop the pepper tops (you should have about 1/4
      to 1/3 cup). 
   2. In a mixing bowl, place the ground meat, raw egg, washed rice,
      carrot, salt and paprika.
   3. Mix well with a heavy spoon or your clean washed hands.
   4. Stuff the cleaned peppers, using all the prepared meat mixture.
   5. Stand the stuffed peppers up right in the cooking pot.
   6. Add the crushed tomatoes, bay leaves, sugar, onions, ground pepper
      and chopped tops of peppers over the peppers.
   7. Cover and slowly cook for 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
   8. If the tomato sauce thickens up too much, add additional water as
      required. 
   9. To serve, spoon the delicious sauce from the pot, over the stuffed
      peppers. Serve with fresh baked bread and your favorite beverage.
      Enjoy...!

Ukrainian Sour Cream and Horse-Radish Sauce:

  * 2 cups fresh sour cream
  * 3 tablespoons grated horseradish
  * 1 teaspoon white granulated sugar
  * 1/2 teaspoon salt 


   1. Mix all the ingredients together in medium stainless steel mixing
      bowl.

   3. Serve the horse-radish sauce at room temperature with your meal.

Makes about 2 1/4 cups.
HINT: Reduce the horse-radish if you like it milder. Add more

From the kitchen of Jayne Freeman and Deb-OR-ah

Very moist banana bread. My favorite recipe for banana bread now. You can easily

    cream on hand)
  * 1 cup (or more) mashed bananas (about 2-3 brown mushy ones - or
    more)
  * 1 cup walnuts (optional)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (175 Celsius).
   2. Grease and flour (or use baking spray) one loaf pan (approx. 9" x
      5").
   3. In a small bowl, mix the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
   4. With a hand mixer, beat the softened butter, sugar, eggs and
      vanilla until well-combined.
   5. With a wooden spoon add the sour cream, bananas and walnuts, if
      using.
   6. Mix in the dry ingredients.

lebhaft und leicht. Sein Bouquet ist harmonisch und von roten Beeren
geprägt. Preis: Fr. 12.90/75 cl

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 Onion
  * 4 Tomatoes
  * 4 Green hot peppers
  * 5 tbsp Butter
  * 8 Eggs
  * Salt
  * Pepper
  * 1 tsp Mild paprika powder

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Chop the onion finely.
   2. Cut a cross in the top of the tomatoes and put them in hot water.
      Remove the skins.
   3. Cut the tomatoes into small pieces.
   4. Wash the peppers and cut them into very small rings.
   5. Heat the butter in a big skillet. 
   6. Sautee the onion until soft, then add peppers and tomatoes and
      simmer until there isn't so much liquid left. 
   7. Beat the eggs with salt and pepper and paprika powder. Pour
      mixture over vegetables. 
   8. Let the mixture cook, then fold it over on itself and keep
      spreading it until all the eggs are cooked.

Serve on nice fresh homemade or Turkish bread.

Be careful with the peppers. Peppers used here are the Turkish kind, a
cross between paprika and hot peppers. Remove the seeds to make them
less hot.

If Bali is the ultimate island, then this dinner is the ultimate Bali taste.
Chicken braised in coconut milk (Opor Ayam) is a true classic of Indonesian
fare. We did change the chicken to white meat instead of the traditional
drumstick or wing. New traditions can sometimes be better than old ones.

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  * 1 pound chicken (or turkey) breast tenders
  * 1 tablespoon chicken broth
  * 1 medium onion, minced
  * 2 cloves garlic, minced
  * 3/4 teaspoon dried cilantro
  * 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
  * 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
  * Pinch of ground turmeric
  * 1 cup light coconut milk (no sugar added)
  * 2 tablespoons macadamia nuts, finely ground
  * 1 teaspoon sugar substitute
  * 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
  * 1 tablespoon tamarind paste
  * 2 teaspoons water
  * Chopped scallion, for garnish

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-heat. Add the chicken and
cook for 5 minutes per side, or until browned and no longer pink in the
center. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.

Heat the broth in the same skillet. add the onion, garlic, cilantro,
ginger, lemon peel, cumin, and turmeric and cook for 5 minutes, or until
the onion is tender but not browned. Stir in the coconut milk, nuts,
sugar substitute, and red pepper (you may need to add a little more oil
and/or water here). Return the chicken to the skillet, cover, and simmer
for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove the chicken to a plate and keep warm. Do not discard the sauce in
the pan.

In a small bowl, combine the tamarind paste and water. Stir in the sauce
in the skillet and gently boil until thickened and the mixture measures
about 1 cup.

Evenly divide the chicken among 4 serving plates. Top with sauce and
garnish with scallion.

   2. Add half of the water

From the kitchen of Julie Sahni

This is the most aromatic and fragrant of all Indian spice blends. Used
throughout North India in all types of dishes - from appetizers and soups to
yogurt salad and main courses - this blend is indispensable to Moghul and North
Indian cooking. It is widely available, but my homemade version is more fragrant
and, of course, fresher. 

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 2 tablespoons cumin seeds 
  * 2 tablespoons coriander seeds 
  * 2 tablespoons cardamom seeds 
  * 2 tablespoons black peppercorns 
  * 1 (3-inch) stick cinnamon, broken up 
  * 1 teaspoon whole cloves 
  * 1 teaspoon grated nutmeg 
  * 1/2 teaspoon saffron (optional)

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Put the cumin, coriander, cardamom, peppercorns, cinnamon, and cloves in
a dry heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the spices, stirring
occasionally, until they turn several shades darker and give off a sweet
smoky aroma, about 10 minutes. Do not raise the heat to quicken the
process, or the spices will brown prematurely, leaving the insides
undercooked. Cool completely. 

Working in batches if necessary, transfer the mixture to a spice mill or
coffee grinder and grind to a powder. Stir in the nutmeg and saffron.
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. 

Garam Masala keeps for 3 months. 

Yield: Makes about 1/2 cup

From the kitchen of <a href="http://www.honeysucklewhite.com/recipes/recipe.jsp?RECIPE_ID=10385">Honeysuckle White</a>

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1/2 cup lemon juice (concentrate is fine)
  * 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
  * 3 cups red wine (cheap is fine!)
  * 4 cups apple cider vinegar
  * 2 tablespoons onion powder
  * 2 tablespoons paprika
  * 3 tablespoons parsley
  * 2 tablespoons black pepper

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Combine all ingredients in a covered container. Stir. Insert meat into
container. Add enough water (if needed) so that liquid totally covers
meat. Cover container and place in refrigerator. Let sit for at least 2
hours. 4 hours is better. 5-6 hours is great. (8 hours or more is
practically cooking the meat without fire!) Take container to grill.
Remove meat portions from container and place directly over fire.
Delicious! 

USE IT TWICE. If you are cooking with a smoker that uses a water pan or
steaming pan, after you have removed the meat from the container, pour
the liquid into the water pan. Extra flavor will steam into your meat as
it cooks.

From the kitchen of Kathleen Van Evera

I actually got this recipe from Gabi Von Ballmoos. 

Adjust the amounts of spices to suit your personal taste.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * large pot of water
  * 2-5 dried red chili peppers [1]
  * 3 10cm cinnamon sticks
  * 18-22 whole cloves
  * 18-22 cardamom pods, or about 11/2 teaspoon ground cardamom in
    cheese cloth or a tea ball
  * 3 black tea bags or equivalent of loose black tea
  * milk (optional)
  * sugar (optional)

------------------------------------------------------------------------


[1] Use two if you're not used to spicy foods -- and five if you like-a
    the spicy.

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Add chili peppers, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves and cardamom to
      large pot of water. 
   2. Heat to boiling.
   3. Reduce heat; simmer 20 minutes. (I press the chili peppers against
      the side of the pot once or twice for a little extra kick. ;-) )
   4. If you'd like to add black tea, do so now and steep to desired
      strength. (I usually steep it for about another 20 minutes.)
   5. Remove the spices.
   6. If desired, add milk and/or sugar to taste. (Milk and sugar take
      away some of the bite if your Chai is a little too spicy. Milk and
      sugar can also be added individually after served.)
   7. Pour into serving containers.

      aside.
   5. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and
      fluffy. 
   6. Beat in eggs one at time, then stir in vanilla.

      boil. 
   3. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until the vegetables are just
      tender, about 4 minutes. 
   4. Add the snow peas, scallions, ginger and garlic. 
   5. Cook uncovered, until the snow peas soften. 
   6. Meanwhile cook the fettuccine according to package directions.

      remaining 1/4 cup water in a bowl.

Sooooo yummy. When I made it, I didn't have any turmeric, carrots, raisins or
nuts, so I didn't put them in. It was still delicious. And I didn't use as much
oil either. I used maybe half of what the recipe calls for.

  * 6 tablespoons vegetable oil
  * 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  * 1 garlic clove, chopped
  * 10 whole cloves
  * 1 cinnamon stick
  * 10 cardamom pods
  * 2 bay leaves
  * 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder (optional)
  * 1 1/2 cups basmati rice
  * 3 cups hot water
  * 1 teaspoon salt
  * 1 cups frozen mixed peas & carrots
  * 1/2 cup golden raisins
  * 1/4 cup almonds or cashews

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Heat the oil in a large pot. 
   2. Sauté the onion until soft, and add the chopped garlic. 
   3. Then "splutter fry" the cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, bay leaves and
      turmeric powder for 30 seconds to 1 minute. 
   4. Lower the heat and add the rice. 
   5. Continue to fry and stir until the rice is well-coated with the
      spices and starts to become transparent. 
   6. Add hot water (exactly double the measure of basmati rice), add
      salt and cover the pan. 
   7. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. 
   8. Stir in peas and carrots and cover. 
   9. Check the rice every 5 minutes or so to see whether the water has
      been absorbed and the rice has become tender (taste a grain to
      test it). 
   10. When the rice is done, fry the raisins and almonds in a little
       oil and mix into the rice. 
   11. Do not overcook the rice -- it will get sticky.

A yummy side dish for jerked meat. I used canned pineapple as dissecting a fresh
pineapple is a little too dangerous for my citrus allergy. I didn't have any rum
on hand so I just substituted a little pineapple juice instead.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 fresh pineapple
  * 1/4 cup rum
  * 1/4 cup brown sugar
  * 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Core pineapple and cut into 8 slices. 
   2. Place in a shallow non-reactive dish or resealable plastic bag
      with rum, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. 
   3. Marinate in refrigerator 1 hour or overnight.
   4. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
   5. Cook pineapple 15 minutes, turning once, until outside is dry and
      char marked. 
   6. Serve with reserved marinade.

one cup is enough.

  * 1 sprig fresh thyme
  * 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  * 1/8 cup chopped green onions
  * 1 hot red chile pepper, sliced
  * 2 1/4 cups uncooked brown rice

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Combine beans and coconut milk in a large saucepan; cook for 2
      hours on low heat.
   2. Stir in thyme, garlic, onions and 3 slices chile pepper; simmer
      for 7 minutes. 
   3. Stir in rice and bring to a boil. 
   4. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes, or until all liquid
      is absorbed and rice is tender.

      fine disks.
   3. Finely chop the onions.
   4. Mix the broth, vinegar, salt, sugar and onions and bring to a
      boil. Add the mustard and the oil to the onion and broth mix. 
   5. Pour over the salad and thoroughly mix.
   6. Add pepper and salt to taste. 
   7. Let sit for at least 30 minutes.

From the kitchen of Jean-Georges: Cooking At Home with a Four-Star Chef (Broadway Books, 1998)

Makes 4 servings

A more-or-less traditional Thai dish that has been on the Vong menu since its
opening, this combines bright flavors and a lovely combination of colors. The
soup is yellow, with brown shiitake, white chicken, and bright green cilantro
peeking through the broth.

The base of this can be prepared in advance and, in fact, tastes better when it
is done a day ahead.

To turn into a main course, increase the amount of chicken to a pound or more,
and serve with white rice, which can be eaten on the side or spooned into the
soup.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 stalk lemongrass 
  * 1 tablespoon canola, grapeseed, or other neutral-flavored oil
  * 1 medium onion, minced 
  * 1 clove garlic, minced 
  * 2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste or curry powder
  * six 1/8-inch-thick slices galangal or ginger, not peeled
  * 3 lime leaves, dried or fresh
  * 4 cups rich chicken stock
  * 12 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast
  * 2 cups shiitake mushrooms
  * one 13- to 14- ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
  * Juice of 2 limes
  * 2 tablespoons nam pla or nuoc mam (Asian fish sauce)
  * 3 scallions, trimmed and minced on the diagonal
  * 1/4 cup minced cilantro

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Trim the lemongrass of its outer sheath and hard ends, whack it in
      a few places with the back of a knife, then cut it into 2 or 3
      pieces.
   2. In a deep skillet or medium saucepan, combine the oil, onion, and
      garlic and turn the heat to medium. 
   3. Cook a minute, stirring, then add the lemongrass, curry paste,
      galangal or ginger, and lime leaves. 
   4. Cook, stirring, for 3 or 4 minutes, then add the stock. 
   5. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium, and cook at a
      moderate boil for about 15 minutes. 
   6. (You may prepare the recipe in advance up to this point;
      refrigerate in a covered container for up to 2 days.)
   7. While the broth cooks, cut the chicken breast into 1/2- to
      3/4-inch cubes. 
   8. Remove the stems from the shiitakes and discard or reserve for
      stock; cut the caps into quarters or eighths.
   9. Add the coconut milk, then the chicken and the mushrooms to the
      broth. 
   10. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the chicken is done.
   11. Stir in the lime juice and nam pla; taste and adjust the
       seasoning. Divide among 4 bowls, then garnish with the scallions
       and cilantro and serve. 
   12. You may remove the galangal and lemongrass before serving, or
       leave them in; they are delicious to gnaw on at the table.

Day 1:  You receive fermented batter in a bag.
Day 2:  Squeeze bag several times.
Day 3:  Squeeze bag several times.
Day 4:  Squeeze bag several times.
Day 5:  Squeeze bag several times.
Day 6:  Add the following ingredients:
           1 cup milk
           1 cup sugar
           1 cup flour
           Squeeze bag several times.

Day 10:  In a large non-metallic bowl, combine the batter and
           1 cup milk
           1 cup sugar
           1 cup flour
           Mix well with a wooden or plastic spoon.
           Pour four 1 cup starters in one-gallon zip lock bags and
date.
           Give these away to friend or neighbors with a set of these   
instructions.
           Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

           Add to the remaining batter:
           1 cup oil or 1/2 cup oil and 1/2 cup applesauce
           1 cup sugar
           1 teaspoon vanilla
           3 large eggs
           1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

cinnamon and sugar mixture.  Pour in batter.  Sprinkle top with
remaining cinnamon and sugar mixture.  Bake for 1 hour or until mixture
comes out clean.

           It is normal for batter to thicken, bubble and ferment.  If
gases build up in bag, release and reseal.


(To not make all the batter to give away, do not feed on last day.  Keep
one bag to start again.)

A easy-to-make alternative to the Tiramisu made with cookies.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * Angel Food Cake
  * 1 8-ounce container mascarpone or 1 8-ounce package cream cheese,
    softened
  * 1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
  * 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur
  * 2 cups whipping cream
  * 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
  * 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur
  * 3/4 cup strong black coffee
  * 1/4 cup coffee liqueur

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

For filling, combine mascarpone cheese, the 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and
3 tablespoons liqueur.  Beat with an electric mixture until smooth.  Set
aside.

Combine whipping cream, the 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons
liqueur; beat until stiff peaks form.  Fold 1/2 cup whipped cream
mixture into mascarpone mixture.  Set mascarpone filling aside.

To assemble, cut cake horizontally into three even layers.  Place first
cake layer on a large serving plate.  With a long-tine fork or skewer,
poke holes in tops of each cake layer.

Combine coffee and the 1/4 cup liqueur; drizzle over each layer.  Spread
half of the mascarpone mixture on top of the first cake layer.  Add
second layer, then spread with the remaining mascarpone filling.  Then
top with the remaining cake layer.  Frost entire cake with the whipped
cream mixture.  Cover and chill up to 2 hours.

To serve, if desired, drizzle Mocha Fudge Sauce over cake or sprinkle
with unsweetened cocoa powder and chocolate curls.  

Mocha Fudge Sauce:  Heat 1 jar fudge ice cream topping until warm.  Stir
in 3 tablespoons coffee until easy to stir.

An excellent accompaniment to any roast or grilled meats, this also makes a
great lunch or brunch dish with a green salad and fruit for dessert.

Makes about 4 generous servings as a side dish, less as a light main course.

Ingredients
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  * 1 1/4 pounds boiling potatoes, simmered in water to cover until
    tender, drained and cooled
  * 1/2 cup finely sliced scallions, white and a little of the green
    part 
  * Salt and freshly ground pepper
  * 1 cup heavy whipping cream or 1/2 and 1/2
  * 2 large eggs
  * 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (add fresh chives, marjoram or thyme,
    if available) 
  * Salt, freshly ground pepper and freshly grated nutmeg
  * 4 ounces (about 1 cup lightly packed) coarsely grated Swiss Gruyere
  * One 1 1/2 to 2-quart gratin dish or other baking dish, buttered

Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1. Set a rack in the middle level of the oven and preheat to 425
      degrees.
   2. Peel and slice the potatoes thinly -- it doesn't matter if they
      break up.
   3. Arrange half the potato slices in the prepared dish and season
      with salt and pepper.  Scatter the scallions on the potatoes, then
      cover with the remaining potatoes and season again.
   4. For the custard, whisk all ingredients except the cheese together
      and pour over the potatoes.
   5. Bake the gratin for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until just set. 
      Sprinkle with the cheese and continue baking for about 10 minutes
      longer, to melt and color the cheese. 
   6. Allow the gratin to cool for 5 minutes, then serve immediately.
