This is a pretty simple way to jazz up the old hamburger, especially if you don’t want to serve it in a bun.

SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS
I’d never seen a recipe for meatballs battered and fried until I found this one. It’s quite normal to batter and fry pork pieces for sweet and sour pork, but meatballs? I imagine they’d be quite good, but hardly for the diet conscious.
CHICKEN BALLS WITH THAI DIPPING SAUCE
These are a great little idea – basically no chopping. Except for the chicken mince and the shallot the ingredients are things you’ve probably got in the fridge or cupboard. It’s just a matter of combining, shaping and frying the chicken balls and mixing up the sauce – easy as. While this recipe is for nibble size balls, you could easily turn them into patties for an easy entree.
SAUSAGE AND BEAN CASSEROLE
Sunday night tea at our house when we were growing up was always a very casual meal. Combining sausages, bacon, noodles and tomato was a dish Mum often made. This a slightly more fancy version with butter beans, kidney beans and green capsicum or zucchini, but it’s still an easy dish with ingredients you have in the cupboard or freezer.
SINGAPORE LAKSA
It’s sunny, but cold outside today so my mind automatically turns to making a pot of hot soup for dinner tonight. Instead of a thick vegetable one maybe I’ll make a seafood laksa instead. This is a meal in itself full of prawns, white fish, calamari, bean curd and noodles……luscious and bound to warm us all up.
CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM RICE LASAGNE – Gluten Free
I haven’t tried this rice lasagne, although I have made a chicken lasagne both with standard lasagne sheets and with Gluten Free ones. My original recipe uses plain flour like this recipe, but I simply substituted GF plain flour which worked fine. To be totally honest I’m not sure how close to lasagne this rice one would turn out, maybe it would be more a rice slice. I think you’d have to careful you didn’t overcook the rice or it could be quite soggy. Even so it’s probably worth a try.
STUFFED PORK CHOPS
This recipe is definitely not for those who don’t like meat and fruit cooked together. To be honest I’m not quite sure if I would like it. I find the banana in it a bit strange, but I guess the peanut butter, dates and chilli might be OK. I leave it up to you to decide.
TUNA AND CORN POTS
I’m not sure how many Australians still have a meat free day on Good Friday. It was a tradition that Mum used to stick to, but that was many years ago. I was reminded of that when I came across this tuna recipe and thought that it might be an easy thing to make on the day.
CHICKEN CORIANDER
This New Idea recipe suggests serving the chicken with a cucumber and red onion salad, which sounds like a good idea. Sadly though it won’t be a dish I’ll be making, as coriander isn’t popular in my household, I guess I could substitute parsley for it and hope for the best…..
LAMB AND BACON RISSOLES
I’m not sure which paper Mum saved this recipe from, but it says it’s a from NZ chef Kurt Sampson. He suggests serving them with a tomato chutney, mashed potato and green peas. They sound like an excellent accompaniments, although a few chips wouldn’t be bad either.
