Roasted Chicken with Oregano and Lemon
2008-08-04 02:33:00
Have you tried my Roast Chicken with Garlic and Lemon? I got a new fan (for this recipe). My sister! She likes it so much that she even recommends it to her demonstrator (for Sharp Water Oven) to try it. Not too long ago, the lady, Irene, if I remembered correctly, just called me to clarify the recipe.I'm going to tell my sister, she should really ask her demonstrator to try this instead. It's similar, less hassle but tasted just as good. I'm not sure if will be the same if you are using a conventional oven but the meat was still succulent though the breast meat is not as moist as the Roast Chicken with Garlic and Lemon. Blame me for being lazy. I didn't parboil the chicken, I didn't cover the chicken with foil too. I just put it in the oven and let the oven do it's job. But my husband said it's better than Roast Chicken with Garlic and Lemon.But I got to warn you. Just like the Roast Chicken with Garlic and Lemon, it has a sour lemon taste. So if you are use to eat chicken ...

Tomato Soup with Ginger and Oregano
2008-04-21 05:39:00
When we were on vacation last week, I had tried a couple of interesting cobbled together creations. Well, we had this condo with a really well equiped kitchen so I felt that it would be quite a waste not to use my time at least doing what I so love doing, - cooking. However, naturally since the supplies in terms of spices etc were minimal these turned out to be different from what I might have otherwise done. However, this soup worked wonders with grilled cheese that I made with pepperjack cheese to lend a little zing. Tomato Soup Recipe Makes 4-6 servings Ingredients 2 tbsp olive oil2 onions finely chopped4 cloves of garlic finely chopped1 large piece of ginger, peeled and grated8 vine-ripened tomatoes quartered1/2 cup canned tomato puree2 tbsp crushed peppercorns1.5 tsp salt3 tbsp butter1 tsp garam masala powder1 tsp fresh oregano1 cup lowfat (2%) milk Method of Preparation 1.

Thyme, oregano and citrus-roasted chicken
2008-03-11 21:08:00
Another chicken recipe for you and it's another from Diana Henry as well! After the amazing success of the Roast Chicken With Picada recipe I splurged and bought the book, Crazy Water, Pickled Lemons. The book is a collection of recipes from the middle East, North Africa and the Mediterranean, such as Khoresh, a stew from Persia that uses oranges and fruit to flavour it, or how about the unusual but delicious sounding stuffed figs with chocolate.There are some fantastic pictures in there as well as brilliant ideas, I can't wait to try the orange cake made with whole pureed oranges.What caught my eye when I first opened the book though was Thyme, oregano and citrus-roasted poussins.The stunning colours in the picture made it jump out and I just had to try it. The recipe is simple to follow and is a bit different to how I normally cook, it does call for Poussins but i used chicken legs it it came out great.The chicken is marinated in a mixture of orange and lime zest, as well as th...
Oregano for Joy
2008-01-11 22:45:00
Oregano means "joy of the mountain" and is derived from the Greek oras, meaning "mountains," and ganos, meaning "joy". In Greek mythology, Aphrodite created oregano as a symbol of happiness. The Greeks placed oregano on graves to help spirits find happiness in death. So does oregano really make you happier? Though there's no scientific research to back it up, many people report that oil of oregano eases symptoms of depression and anxiety, so there may indeed be something to this herb's uplifting properties.

Oregano – Not Just Adding Spice, Also a Known Medicinal Plant
2007-12-14 04:01:00
Most people thought that oregano is just a spice that adds tastes to their pasta, pizza and other foods to satisfy their delicate tastes. But for me, it’s the other way around. Here in the Philippines, oregano is well known for its herbal powers. It can cure colds, headaches and other illness. It’s just this year when I discovered that oregano can be a spice to some foods. In Europe, its most widely used as spice because Europeans love pasta and pizza.Oregano as a spiceA number of species of Oregano are native to the Mediterranean, all of which are traded as spices. Fresh Mediterranean or European oregano is sometimes available in gourmet produce sections of supermarkets and in Italian or Greek markets. Choose bright-green, fresh-looking bunches with no sign of wilting or yellowing.Here in the Philippines, you can buy dried oreganos on the supermarkets at their spices section.Oregano as a medicinal herbOreganos come from a plant family of lamiaceae, a mint family with a scientif...

Presto Pasta Night #30: Mafaldine with beef ragout and oregano
2007-09-19 00:00:00
I am always looking for pasta shapes, which are hard for me to find. This week I found mafaldine. This fairytale name belongs to a veritably "regal" shape of pasta, since the Mafaldine were dedicated by Neapolitan people to Princess Mafalda di Savoia. They have a long form, like a ribbon enriched by precious curling, which stays in its shape even after cooking. Their secret is a certain irregularity in the consistency, between the flat centre part and the curling on the edges: a characteristic that allows this shape to blend with the most refined sauces while maintaining the pasta's flavour. Mafaldine love rich and sumptuous recipes that evoke erstwhile banquets of Italian noble families.

:: Oregano Lamb Chops and Carrot and Cabbage Salad
2007-07-24 20:38:00
Now generally I am a Chicken and fish fan so this dish mostly came about because my girlfriend gently suggested that I should cook something other than chicken tonight! Not one to dissappoint I head to the butchers with this in mind and picked out some lamb chops. Ok I know carrot and cabbage mixed together is coleslaw but there's something off putting about coleslaw which make my mind conjure up images of soggy cabbage drenched in watery cheap mayonnaise. Ew! So that why I'm sticking with carrot and cabbage salad!Oregano Lamb Chops4 good quality lamb chops3 cloves of garlic chopped finely3 tablespoon of olive oil1 tablespoon of good quality balsamic vinegar2 teaspoons of dried oreganoA good pinch of sea salt and ground pepperPut the lamb chops in a ziploc food bag and add the chopped garlic plus the rest of the ingredients to the bag.

Quick and Easy Oregano Chicken
2007-04-19 09:48:00
My spice cupboard might well be stocked with 50 or more different spice herbs, salts and powders. Spices and herbs do not change the chemistry of cookery. They are only added to taste, bearing in mind that there is a difference in pungency and intensity of flavor. Oregano, for instance, is more potent than tarragon.In Sweden, the dish most associated with oregano, is pizza. However, its rich spicy flavor makes it a perfect match for tomato based sauces, seafood and meats too. Oregano can be used either fresh or dried. If you are using the dried herb, use half the amount of it as you would the fresh called for in the recipe. The dried oregano is often (not always) more flavorful than the fresh one. To color the chicken, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.This chicken meal is so delicious and creates an elegant yet uncomplicated meal. Best served with cooked potatoes and vegetables. When my grandchildren visit, I have to double this recipe. They like it. But they do not really like v...
