Recipe: Leftover Chicken Pasta with Artichoke Hearts, Sun Dried Tomatoes, O
2008-05-19 16:00:00 I really thought twice about posting this recipe. It is so simple, but isn’t that what The Leftover Queen is all about? Simple, yet delicious meals using leftovers and ingredients you already have at home? I also decided to post this, because it is the first thing I actually “cooked” in my kitchen when we came back from our Honeymoon, and therefore it is sentimental, as am I. We stopped at my mom’s house on the way back from the airport to say hi and pick up our kitty. She had a nice chicken dinner ready for us. I was so food-ed out from the trip and the chicken breast was so big, that when I was full, it looked like I had barely touched it! So she wrapped it up to go - just like a good mamma! The next day, I was faced with a kitchen that was mine but unfamiliar after almost 2 weeks without really cooking. The fridge was empty, but luckily the pantry was still full of canned and jarred goods, including artichoke hearts and sun dried tomatoes. I love chicken...

Freezing Tomatoes

I have found several ways to prolong it but shortly I am going to be supermarket bound again! Yesterday though i took the girls to our local U-Pick and as I was at the cash desk checking out they had some irregular tomatoes (smaller ones than what you would normally buy) for real cheap. I bought 2 baskets of them knowing that I would pull out my handy ricer and get them frozen for a meal later on down the road when nothing but fresh, homegrown tomatoes would do!I wanted to share with you the process because most of you are just coming into the summer season.

Growing Tomatoes--Harvesting History And Health
2008-03-18 04:22:00 Spaghetti sauce, ketchup, salsa, and soup--none would be the same without tomatoes. It is hard to imagine a life devoid of this delectable fruit. Fruit? Tomatoes are the reproductive part of the tomato plant, so botanically speaking they are fruits. However, for horticultural and culinary purposes, tomatoes are vegetables because they are most often used in savory dishes. Tomatoes were not always so popular, though. They had a rough history from the mountains of Peru to our dining room tables. Tomatoes in History Tomato plants originated in the "New World," or western hemisphere. Most likely originating in Peru, tomatoes were domesticated into the plants we know today in Central America. Hundreds of years of cultivation changed a weedy, seemingly useless plant into a prolific producer of tasty fruit. Brought to the Mediterranean regions by Spanish Conquistadors, and used widely for centuries, it took much longer for Europeans to embrace the tomato. Tomatoes are part of the plant fam...

The 'lycopene' pigment present in tomatoes not only imparts the attractive red colour but also helps lower LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) in the blood.

Sage Beef with Feta & Tomatoes
2008-02-16 14:04:00 salvia/sage I bought a bottom-round roast last week. Roasts, regardless of how small, are always too big for just me, so I was thrilled when the the butcher was nice enough to cut in half. After freezing both halves, I unfroze one the other day thinking I would be home early enough to cook dinner. Yeah right. It sooo didn't happen. That meant the defrosted meat had to be cooked or tossed.... immediately.A friend visiting for the weekend had to delay arrival one day, so I figured I would make the beef Friday. I decided to make Sage Beef with Feta & Tomatoes. While preheating the oven to 500 degrees, I seasoned the meat with salt, pepper, and Essence (one of my staple seasonings - if you haven't noticed). Then, I lined a pan with foil, forming foil walls to help with splattering, and roasted the meat. Cooking time? Five minutes for each pound, plus 5 extra minutes at the end. Then, without opening the oven door, I shut off the temperature and the meat rest for two hours.After th...

Presto Pasta Night #48: Tagliatelle with herbs and tomatoes
2008-01-31 00:00:00 My elder son - he cooks as John Kabys - had a movable holiday. So we had a lot of time to modify the recipe from page 30 of the Essential Pasta Cookbook, Spaghetti with herbs and tomatoes for Ruth's Presto Pasta Nights. The homemade pasta recipe is always the same: 300 grams flour, 3 eggs size M and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place eggs, flour and salt in mixer bowl. Attach bowl and flat beater. Turn to speed 2 and mix until crumbly. To test for correct dough consistency, pinch a small amount of dough together after mixing with the flat beater. If the dough stays together without sticking your fingers, it should work well. Remove dough from bowl and knead by hand for 1 or 2 minutes. Divide dough into 5 pieces before processing with the roller attachment. Roll out pasta and cut into into desired shape. While John Kabys was shaping and cooking the pasta, I made the sauce and both came together to Tagliatelle with herbs and tomatoes Great! -=========REZKONV-Recipe - RezkonvSuite v1....

Frugality, Canned Tomatoes, & Moroccan-Spiced Fish
2008-01-29 02:49:00 Staying on my cheap (who, me?) theme, it?s on to one of my quick fish suppers; it?s easy to make yet results in all sorts of interesting flavors and textures. The inspiration behind its creation is a Moroccan fish tagine I made a while back (tagine is the word for both the cooking vessel and the spiced stew cooked within). While delicious, the tagine required marinating the fish in 3/4 cup of spiced olive oil for 24 hours, roasting for an hour and 45 minutes, and spending about 40 dollars on ingredients?not exactly weeknight fare (at least, not at my house).Off to the drawing board!I simplified the steps (e.g., no marinating, and stovetop simmering instead of oven roasting) and ingredients (e.g., canned petite-dice tomatoes instead of fresh, fresh lemon instead of preserved lemon, cinnamon & cumin?also traditional Moroccan spices?instead of saffron); it?s a snap to pull off (you can keep almost all of the items in the freezer or pantry) but the flavors are still captivating.I ...
Growing Heirloom Tomatoes
2008-01-28 02:57:00 Heirloom tomatoes ? also known as heritage tomatoes ? are some of the many older varieties from which seeds have been saved over the years and passed from one generation to the next. Most tomatoes purchased today in supermarkets or grocery stores are hybrids which have been bred to produce higher yields, uniformity of shape and color, shipping durability and longer shelf life, rather than flavor.Heirloom tomatoes are prized firstly for their amazing flavor. In addition to their outstanding flavor they frequently have a distinctive shape and come in a range of colors from purples to orange to green and more. Many heritage tomatoes are every bit as hardy as the hybrid varieties.Heirloom tomatoes have become increasingly popular and more readily available in recent years. These tomatoes, in particular, bring as much to the garden as they do to the plate and they can't be beaten for their outstanding flavor and the beauty they add to recipes and dishes with their many shapes, sizes, an...
Savoury Muffins with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Cottage Cheese(Paneer)
2008-01-14 16:22:00 When we think about comfort foods, we tend to give in a bit more towards chocolate or desserts, but for some of us, savoury dishes go more towards comforting our palettes than sweet ones. I am one of those with a huge sweet tooth, and almost always give in to my dessert temptations; but lately, I'm trying to extend my skills by experimenting a lot more with new spices and herbs, and combining classic ingredients in a contemporary style to create a savoury tantalizing dish. This weekend, I decided to realize one of my whims - I'm a huge fan of muffins, and so I thought why not make a Savoury Muffin! when Indians think of comfort food, 9 people out of 10 zero in on "Paneer", or Cottage-cheese. So I too chose paneer as my main ingredient, then started adding other stuff, some inspired by my sense of taste and smell, some purely by instinct, and some simply because they are favorites!:) So what things finally made it into my muffins?? well, it was mainly Sun-dried tomatoes, cottage-ch...

Hot Tomatoes by Angelo Mc Donnell
2008-01-06 00:00:00 Recently, Irish born chef Angelo Mc Donnell sent me his latest book, Hot Tomatoes. Angelo is the group Executive chef of the Igor Group, a 32 outlet F&B company in Hong Kong where he has resided for the past 14 years. An avid competitor in competitions he has won numerous accolades for his innovative cuisine and is the Hong Kong national culinary team captain. So when he sent me his 2nd book (Angelo’s first book was Bold Appetizers), I knew it would be good. As soon as I opened Hot Tomatoes, I was amazed to see bright 4 red and luscious tomatoes being smashed with a rubber mallet in first few pages of the book. I was intrigued and wanted more.

Rasedaar Aloo-Gobhi (Fragrant Potato-Cauliflower Curry)
2007-12-26 04:29:00 Aloo-Gobhi sabzi (Potato-Cauliflower Vegetable) happens to be one of my favourite vegetable combinations. There are so very many ways in which this vegetable combination is cooked and dished out. Yet it is only in winter that one gets the opportunity of enjoying it in this fragrant curry form. Primarily because this recipe uses loads of Dalchini or Cinnamon. Cinnamon which is an essential spice in Indian cooking, is regarded by Ayurveda as a warming spice. It is, in general, used in combination with other spices that complement its flavour and often in its bark form. Also it is used to flavour savoury vegetables and meats from the main course rather than sweets and desserts! Cauliflower curry with cinnamon is a perfect example of this. I find it to be a comfort food - tasty, warming, and utterly delicious once served on a bed of Basmati rice. Ingredients:1 medium-size cauliflower4 small red potatoes2 medium onions1 tin tomato puree1 tsp tamarind extract8 Curry leaves4 tbsp dried uns...

Cinnamon Flavoured Tomato Rice/Thakkali Sadam/Thakkaali Choru
2007-12-22 06:43:00 When Sunita announced her event Think Spice..Think Cinnamon for this month, I groaned inwardly cuz this is one spice I use only in Biriyani and other flavoured rice dishes. That too, with other spices. But the event kept prodding the back of my mind and soon I decided to read up a bit on the spice to see if it can be used in any other simple dish.To my utter surprise and delight, I found so much material on this humble spice that I was quite astounded. Here are some quick facts on the benefits of Cinnamon.Cinnamon has a long history both as a spice and as a medicine.It has a lot of health benefits like anti-clotting abilities, anti-microbial qualities, ability to control blood sugar levels and its mere scent can boost brain activity.Cinnamon has also been used to provide relief when faced with the onset of a cold or flu, especially when mixed in a tea with some fresh ginger.source: whfoods.comWhen I realised this, I decided to try one of my favourite flavoured rice dishes - Tomato R...
Winter Warmers: Hot Mango Salsa
2007-12-14 06:01:00 Mango is a great favourite on the Indian sub-continent. Indeed, as a mango lover one can't help but be passionate about this beautiful fruit. Every summer, desis in the US bemoan lack of access to the over a 100 varieties of mango available freely on the Indian sub-continent. And every so often I get a mango craving and I am tempted to buy one of the beautiful orange, yellow, and green mangoes in the local supermarket. Yet, these mangoes are very fibrous they don't do too well on a dessert plate. So to satisfy my mango cravings I began to experiment using these sweet fleshy fruits in new ways. I remember standing in my kitchen, mango staring at me when memories of eating sour kairi (raw mango) with rock salt and red chilli powder on a hot summer's day, flashed back to me. Mmmmm, the texture of the raw mango mingling with the sharp and mellow flavours was just heaven. And well, just like that I decided to do the same to the nice ripe mango on the kitchen table.

Tipsy Stewed Tomatoes
2007-12-10 11:20:00 Stewed tomatoes were first marketed in the the late 1940's, but prior to that folks put up their own stewed tomatoes in preserve jars in order to have the availability of tomatoes during the winter months when they couldn't grow them for consumption. This recipe was given to me a few years back by a bartender in Montauk which is out on the East End of Long Island. His name? It remains lost in a fog of time and vodka. I do remember this-- his version called for a bit more whiskey than what I use here!Ingredients:
