Veal is a meat I don’t often cook with these days, it was used a lot more when I was growing up. In this recipe you could substitute beef, but it’s worth using veal if you can buy it, as it’s quite tender and makes a great pie filling. The polenta base and rounds on the top make this into a very hearty pie.
There’s two things I like about this recipe. Firstly, the combination of apples and raspberries together in the filling – I like the sweetness of the apples and the tartness of the raspberries. And, secondly the addition of rice bran in the crumble mix. I find some crumbles a bit dull, but the mix of rice bran, rolled oats and crushed nuts makes this one tasty.
Unfortunately there’s no picture with this recipe, which is a shame as I think a lamb casserole with a crumble topping is a little unusual and would not only taste good, but would look good as well. It would be a good casserole to make for a group and could easily be made gluten free by simply using gluten-free plain flour.
Coffee and macaroons…………yum, but just for a change what about trying these macaroons made with white chocolate. The added bonus is that they’re gluten free.
Monday is the first official day of winter so I thought it might be a good time to add in this really hearty soup. Add a bit of crusty bread and it’s a total meal in itself.
I know going into winter is hardly the right time to post an ice-cream recipe, but for some people it doesn’t matter how cold it is it’s never too cold for a bowl of ice-cream. This one has the added bonus of crunch peanut butter and chocolate, so who cares if it’s cold outside turn the heating up and enjoy it……………
Here’s a very Australia soup to try!!!! Let’s face it who else in the world, except for an Australian, would add vegemite to their soup. I think it looks delicious and definitely intend to make it this winter.
During this enforced lockdown our amazing 9 year old granddaughter has been cooking up a storm. This week she cooked a three course meal for all of us (the four in her household, plus three visitors) which was delicious. So when I saw this old marshmallow slice recipe that Mum kept from her bowling club, I thought it might be something she’d like to make, especially as the ingredients are everyday things that will be in the pantry. I hope she makes it and keeps a piece for us.
This recipe comes from a Woman’s Day Everyday Food supplement. I’m not sure I’d describe this as an everyday food, but it certainly is a yummy slice for a special occasion or maybe just for a special treat.
Last year I was looking for a recipe for a zucchini loaf to take on a family picnic. I found this chocolate variety and decided to add a chocolate cream cheese frosting that I use on another cake. It worked really well and was a great hit with the family.
