Water Spinach
2009-07-02 19:36:00
This Asian vegetable looks like a mix of watercress and spinach. It grows in similar conditions as watercress and has the nutrition value like spinach does. It tastes similar to spinach but is crunchy. It is very easy to prepare. Most simple way is to pour some oil in a heated skillet, add some garlic, add the water spinach and stir fry for a few minutes.There's many ways to prepare water spinach by itself as a side dish. Here's a few alternatives:Stir fry with oil, garlic, rice vinegar or dry sherry, and soy sauce.Stir fry with oil, garlic, chili pepper, oyster sauce, and shrimp paste or bean paste.Stir fry with oil, chili pepper, garlic, ginger, and shrimp paste.Stir fry with oil, garlic, fermented bean curd.

Suppe der Woche: Spinatsuppe mit Parmesancrisps und saurer Sahne
2009-06-25 15:19:00
Als ich bei Rike das hier rezensierte Kochbuch durchblätterte, war es nur noch eine Frage der Zeit, bis mein Widerstand, neue Kochbücher anzuschaffen, brechen würde. Für mich völlig unerklärlich fand sich das vegetarische Kochbuch im Briefkasten. Als erstes habe ich daraus die Spinatsuppe mit Parmesancrisps und saurer Sahne ausprobiert. Eine gute und schmackhafte Möglichkeit den übriggebliebenen Spinat von diesem Gericht aufzubrauchen. Meine jungen Mittagesser waren auch begeistert. Im Original werden die Parmesancrisps in der Pfanne zubereitet, ich habe mich für eine bereits erprobte Backofenmethode entschieden. Den Gemüsetee, der nicht kocht, sondern nur zieht, habe ich durch langsam gekochten Gemüsefond ersetzt. ==========REZKONV-Rezept - RezkonvSuite v1.4Titel: Spinatsuppe mit Parmesancrisps und saurer SahneKategorien: Suppe, VegetarischMenge: 4 Portionen Zutaten 2mittl. Kartoffeln, ca. 400 g1/4Ltr. Gemüsetee, Ulrike: Gemüsefond100Gramm Junge Spinatblätter1/2  Knobl...

Yummilicious Paratha Frankies
2009-04-28 15:43:00
Hi everybody! I am back after my long break again. These long breaks are becoming an annoying habit you might say , but it is one that I definitely intend to break very soon. Anyway, how have you guys been? I have missed you all too. What I have for you today is something I thought of today morning at 5.00 o'clock when I was disturbed out of my sleep and just could not go back to sleep again. And our mind you know has this annoying habit of immediately kicking into action with all kinds of thoughts rushing in which makes it even more difficult to sleep. So my mind turned to the most nagging of thoughts and that was what to pack in the lunch boxes. Fortunately there was paratha dough already ready in the fridge, but as that was what we had had for dinner there was no way I could repeat the same in the lunch boxes . Well not as an ordinary paratha anyway. But then I remembered the block of paneer in the fridge and the mixed frozen veggies in the freezer and I had my lunch boxes all p...

Spinach and Mushroom Polenta Quiche
2009-03-24 17:55:00
The recipe for the Spinach and Mushroom Quiche was adapted from The Modern Vegetarian Kitchen by Peter Berley. Instead of using a pastry crust for the quiche, I decided to use cooked polenta as the top and bottom layers. The original recipe did not use any butter for their pastry crust. The recipe for the polenta from the package calls for butter, but we could always use a substitute for it.Here?s the recipe for the filling, which was adapted from the Vegetarian Spinach and Mushroom Quiche recipe.Ingredients:5 tbsp olive oil1 cup diced onion2 leeks, mostly white parts finely chopped10 oz white mushrooms, sliced2 tbsp white wine or water1 1/2 tsp salt3 garlic cloves, crushed10 fresh basil leaves, chopped1 lb firm tofu, rinsed and patted dry2 tbsp lemon juice1 tbsp rice vinegar2 lbs fresh spinach, washed and roughly choppedDirections:Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large pan.Add the onions, leeks and mushrooms and cook for about 10 minutes, until the vegetables are caramelized.Add the win...

Fritatta
2009-01-16 14:22:00
Fritatta is something I have always been fascinated with but never cooked. For that matter until a few days back I had not even tasted a fritatta. But somehow it just always managed to catch my attention from pictures in food magazines and food blogs and of course food shows on TV. On one of my shopping trips I even bought a oven proof pan particularly with the intention of making a fritatta. I just loved the idea of eating a big fat omellete filled with all kinds of delicious veggies, cheeses and mushrooms.Well last week I was at the surgery (that's what a doctor's dispensary is called in UK) to see my GP . ( Reason for which was I had a nasty fall 2 weeks back and have been making quite a few trips to the doctor's for treatment on my leg which I hurt very badly.) So while I was sitting in the waiting area for my name to appear on the electronic display I was browsing through a magazine and once again my attention was drawn to a very yummy pic of fritatta. I memorised the ingred...
Aloo Palak - Potatoes in a Spinach Gravy
2008-11-12 07:46:00
I really can't believe how fast time is flying. Its been week since my last post. I have been making mostly simple sabzis the past week since we have been apartment hunting almost every evening after work. A subzi and some steamed rice is all I have energy for after work and poking around strangers' houses.Aloo PalakAloo Palak is a sure-shot winner at home since TH loves both potatoes and palak. And its generally a quick recipe for me since I chop the spinach during weekends and freeze it or sometimes buy it chopped.Aloo Palak is originally a Punjabi recipe, (which reminds me - what happened to RCI??) and the authentic recipe includes addition of some methi or fenugreek leaves to it. My version is very customized to my laziness so you may or may not find it to resemble something you would get in a Punjabi restaurant ;)What I Used:Palak / Spinach / Cheera - 2 cups, choppedPotatoes / Aloo - 2, cubedOnion - 1 small, chooped (I used 5-6 shallots so that works as well)Garlic pods - 2 ...

Keerai Masiyal - Cheera Curry - Mashed Spinach Curry
2008-09-29 06:53:00
This is a true blue Tamil Brahmin recipe and a great and easy way to include greens in your weeknight dinners. I used Amaranth Leaves for this, since they are always available in the Chinese wet markets here. Amaranth, also known as pigweed (anyone else find that name strange?)in English, Thotakura in Telugu, Araikeerai or Mulaikeerai in Tamil, is fast becoming my favorite kind of leaf-food. What's even better is, they are available cleaned and it just requires me to lightly wash it before cooking, as opposed to the tedious process of cutting the roots off and going inch by inch over the vegetable from root to tip looking for a grain of sand you are inevitably bound to miss and your husband is sure to bite into first thing at dinner.Chopped Amaranth LeavesI used amaranth leaves to make Palak Paneer too and this time around, didn't have the patience to try something that elaborate. 10 minutes of rummaging around in my recipe collection brought me to this nice and easy recipe for K...

Palak Paneer/Cottage Cheese in Spinach Gravy
2008-07-22 10:58:00
TH loves Palak Paneer. If you give him butter naan and palak paneer every day, I don't think he would tire of it so easily.

Skillet Spinach
2008-06-04 18:36:00
This is one of my favorite side dishes. You can make it as low fat as you want, it’s still going to be delicious (assuming you like spinach). My version is adapted from Home Cookin’ (Compiled by Junior League of Wichita Falls, Inc., Wichita Falls, TX. It’s been a long time since I’ve referred to the cookbook recipe. I’m surprised to see it calls for three eggs. I don’t think I’ve ever made it according to the published recipe. It’s a great side dish because it’s good to eat and easy to make and also because although the main ingredient is spinach it’s not runny — the liquid from the spinach gets absorbed by the roux you make at the start. If I know I’m making it for dinner that evening, I’ll leave the packages of frozen spinach out on the counter to thaw. Anyway, here’s my version: 1 T butter or margarine (I use SmartBalance) 1 T chopped onion 1 T flour 2 10-oz. packages frozen spinach (still frozen ...

Pistachio Cashew & Spinach Roast
2008-04-21 12:29:00
pane/loafI have bought Tofu a couple of times, telling myself I am going to try it, but don't. I bookmark recipes, get the tofu, the expiration date passes, and it gets tossed. I am one of those people that can't bring themselves to get past its texture. Call it post tramatic stress from a bad tofu-experience from the vegetarian dining hall during undergrad in the early 90s. Call it silliness. Who knows!Well - Sunday marked the day I broke free from the shackles of tofu fear. And, I have Lisa Rene to thank for it. I saw her Pistachio Cashew & Spinach Roast and thought, that's it - a must try for sure! So, when I was at the Farmer?s Market, trying to remember the ingredients, I bought soft tofu and pistachios. I was supposed to by firm tofu ooops!), but decided to try it anyway. My pantry also neglected to have garam masala and turmeric, so my loaf didn't have them, plus I chose to leave out the serrano pepper - substituting it for a dash of red pepper flakes.Overall, it was ...
Chicken Tomato and Feta Patties on a Spinach Salad
2008-04-20 10:12:00
This is really quick to make, tastes great and if like me you are only making these for yourself and hubby, they make great leftovers for the next day, as my son and I found out. You will see from the photo I shaped into quite large patties, I don't usually do this I just wanted this for photo purposes. I make three patties per person and as you can see, if you made them this size, it would just be too much. Also it makes for a shorter cooking time if shaped smaller.If you have read the earlier post I wrote on the natural cutting boards I brought back from OZ you can find a description with a couple of photos under my natures cutting boards page. I will be uploading more photos once I can get something nice as a backing to make them stand out. I will also let you know the separate web address for them once it is finished.Ingredients800g Chicken mince3 Tablespoons drained semi-dried tomatoes, chopped coarsely1 Teaspoon garlic powder1 Egg1/2 Cup breadcrumbs200g Fetta cheese, crumbled...

Trader Joe's Spinach & Feta Cheese Stuffed Salmon- NATIONWIDE
2008-04-17 19:35:00
A couple of nights ago, Mrs. Chicken Fried prepared some Spinach and Feta Cheese Stuffed Salmon Filets which we purchased at Trader Joes.We love prepared meals which include all the ingredients but still allow you to cook them, but have had mixed results from the prepared dishes we get at warehouse stores.However this was not the case with our latest meal from Trader Joes. We grilled the salmon and within minutes we had a wonderful restaurant quality meal. While this prepared meal had all the necessary ingredients, you would be best advised to flavor to your liking, and the only improvement I would add would be a dash of sea salt. Other than that though, The salmon was tender and flavorful. The Feta and Spinach really added to the personality of the dish, with the it combination of the smooth rich tasting Feta and the earthy nuttiness of the spinach. It was a perfect topping for the salmon.We combined this dish with Rice Pilaf courtesy of Rice-A-Roni, and some non-fermented red...
Red Chori Palak Curry / Azuki Bean Spinach Curry
2008-04-17 00:40:00
It is alarming the way the food prices are sky rocketing these days. Every time we go to the grocery, we notice an increase in the price even for the essential commodities like bread, pulses, milk, vegetables etc. We seem to be getting lesser and lesser for the same amount each year. I personally feel the prick most when I see the prices of Toor Daal and Uraad Daal go.  These were the most frequently used Daals at home growing up and it is painful to see their prices shoot up at such alarming levels. Anyways, the silver lining about this is that it pushes me to look for other alternatives and try out something new and different.  On one such escapade to the Indian grocery I saw this Red Chori and after some keen contemplation decided to give it a try. I did not want to do anything fancy for the first time, so I decided to make the usual curry. I did not regret the decision as I liked the taste and the flavor seemed pretty familiar too. I feel that when this is correctly cooked nea...
