The Creole Lady´s Sunday Casserole
2007-04-13 13:32:00 This recipe was once upon a time (in the mid -70s) obtained from a friend. Still very popular. The origin is unknown. Descendants of European settlers in the New World colonized by Spain, Portugal, France, and in some cases England, are Creole. In spite of the name, maybe this casserole has a European origin after all.INGREDIENTS:Serves 6* 1 fillet of pork (900 g), sliced* 2 big or 4 small hot sausages, Chorizo, Kabanoss, or the like, sliced* 1 ½ teaspoon salt* ½ teaspoon pepper* 1 teaspoon marjoram* 1 tablespoon wheat flour* 1 jar (195 g) sweet pickled pearl onions* 1 jar (225 g) black olives, pitted, divided into halves* 1 red bell paprika, deseeded, cut into pieces of ½ cm* 1 dl pickled cucumber (or cornichons), finely diced* 4-5 dl creamMETHOD:1.

Porter Steak and Sauce
2007-04-02 10:40:00 When Tumerica at What I ate asked me for a recipe of Porter Steak , I was sure to find a recipe at once, in English, somewhere. I did not find anything similar to the Swedish recipe..... I went googling for Porter Steak. I ended up with nothing. This is a dish well known in Sweden. Whoever invented this recipe in the first place, it was not me.Porter is a style of beer in the ale family. It has a dark colour. It took its name from its popularity with the thousands of street and river porters (but not market porters) of London, who drank it to refresh themselves as they carried goods and parcels off and on ships in the Thames and around the streets of London.With the porter added to the sauce you get a whole new level of flavor. A top round steak is perfect for the Porter Steak. But any boneless cut of meat will do. This is a classic recipe:INGREDIENTS:* 1 kg boanless beef or similar* 1 bottle Porter (beer) , 33 cl* 1 dl sweet black currant juice (concentrated)* 1 dl soy* 7-10 juniper... More About: Sauce

Pour into plastic containers and freeze.This is a summer cooler in the northern part of Sweden , where we don't have black elder. (Black elder can be grown in southern Sweden, but not in northern part due to severe vinters). Black currant leaves (Ribes nigrum) have a delicious scent. This is as good as elderflower syrup - almost identical in taste. To drink, put a lemon slice in a glass, add about 1/3 of syrup, and pour in water. Ah......NB!
