This is a very 80s pre dinner nibble. There was a few of these bread filled recipes around then, most though were more robust versions, with mince meat etc. This ham and cheese one is a bit lighter.
HAM AND CHEESE ROLL
Reply
CHICKEN AND RICE LAKSA
I must admit I haven’t tried this recipe out, but I like that it seems pretty easy to make. I’m sure that it’s very tasty and filling. It’s best made close to serving though.
POTATO PATTIES
Next time you cook mashed potato, do a bit extra and keep it aside to make these quick and easy patties. They’re great by themselves or served up with a salad.
AVOCADO PISTACHIO PATE WITH HERB TOASTS
If like me you find bought avocado dip/guacamole a bit bland, perhaps it’s time to make this version which has a great pistachio nut topping. You can take the easy way out and team it with biscuits, but these easy herb toasts will make it even better.
ONION CHEESE SCONES
I’ve taken the liberty of changing the name of these Onion Cheese Cornettes to scones. As I think cornettes should be an entirely different shape. They look more like scones to me – cheesy scones filled with a cheesy onion topping.
CAULIFLOWER IN HERBED TOMATO SAUCE
Years ago cauliflower only appeared on our plates as an over boiled soft mush, except that is for when it was accompanying roasts, when the much more delicious cauliflower in cheesy white sauce appeared. Thankfully, today it is used a lot more creatively, such as cauliflower rice, roasted, added to curries, soups and casseroles. This is tomato version is yet another way.
RICE PANCAKES WITH MAPLE BUTTER
I reckon these pancakes will keep you going well past lunch and probably to dinner time. Just as easy to make as ‘normal’ ones, but very filling, especially covered in maple butter, ice cream and raspberries, as pictured.
BEEF AND EGGPLANT TAGINE
Don’t have a Tagine pot to cook this recipe in? There’s lot of alternatives you can use. Dutch Oven: Excellent for browning meat on the stove, then transferring to the oven for slow cooking.
Slow Cooker (Crock-Pot): Perfect for the low-and-slow, hands-off approach.
Heavy Frying Pan: Use a large, wide pan with a tight lid for stovetop cooking.
Baking Dish with Foil: Use a dish covered tightly with foil for oven-baked tagines. Whichever way you choose, it will taste delicious.
FOUR FRUIT JAM
I always think of jam making happening when people have an abundance of fruit from their backyard fruit trees. But as this recipe uses only 1 orange, 1 lemon, 1 grapefruit and 1 apple, you really don’t need a backyard tree supply to make it. A visit to the local shops will do and you’ll have jam for your morning toast.
CHICKEN MUSHROOM AND PEA RISOTTO
Like all risottos this recipe requires some patient stirring, but the soft Arborio rice combined with chicken, mushrooms and peas makes it all worthwhile.
