A Two Course Rice - (Arroz Abanda)

A Two Course Rice - (Arroz Abanda)

Ingredients :

3 lb Fish and shellfish
(shrimp, clams,
mussels, squid, lobster,
sea bass)
5 cup Fish stock or water
2/3 cup Olive oil
1/2 head Garlic
2 cup Rice
1/3 cup Tomatoes - peeled
seeded and chopped
a squirt Dry white wine
1 pch Paprika
1 sprg Parsley chopped
FISH SAUCE
1/2 cup Olive oil
2 x Garlic cloves
2 x Egg yolks
3 sm Tomatoes
1 tsp Sugar
1 dsh Tabasco sauce
1 dsh Worcestershire sauce
a few drops Lemon juice
Salt to taste

Method :

• Cover the cleaned fish and shellfish
with cold water (or fish stock if you have
it). The amount of liquid should be no
less than 5 cups. Bring it to a boil and
simmer until the fish is cooked through
and the mollusks have all opened. Strain
fish and set aside, saving liquid.
• Brown garlic over a low fire in 2/3
cup olive oil. Add parsley, paprika, and
tomato in quick succession. Force the
resulting mixture through a sieve onto 2
cups of raw rice and brown the rice in
the olive oil for 3 to 5 minutes. Bring 5
cups of the liquid in which the fish
cooked to a boil and pour it into the rice.
Cook over a high fire for about 10
minutes. The rice will bubble at first;
when it begins to make a popping noise,
reduce flame and cook 10 minutes more
on slow fire. Sprinkle white wine on top
of rice and cook briefly on even hotter
fire than at first. The rice should be so
dry that you can tilt the pan on its side
without having a grain fall out.
• Serve the rice first, alone or
decorated with a few mussels and clams.
As a second course, serve the fish,
cooled, with an "All-I-Oli Sauce" (recipes
for which are included in this database),
or the following Fish Sauce: Pound two
garlic cloves in a mortar, pour in a little
of the 1/2 cup of olive oil, add the two
egg yplks, and mix until thick. Fry the
tomatoes, whole, and peel them. Little
by little, add the rest of the olive oil, the
fried tomato, and the sugar. Season with
salt, tabasco, Worcestershire, and a few
drops of lemon juice. The finished sauce
should have the consistency of a mayonnaise.

Christmas Spiced Cranberry and Claret Jelly Recipes

Christmas Spiced Cranberry and Claret Jelly Recipes


Christmas Spiced Cranberry and Claret Jelly Recipes. Flatbottomed if it's not Noel, it's much a deal to e'er acquire any home-made cranberry treat on histrion in your cupboard to suffice with scheme or cut fearful or pâté - it livens up so more things and gives you a sensing of sexy cranberries all assemblage moonlike.





Procedure:

First of all, place the cranberries, cinnamon stick, juniper berries, cloves and 18 fl oz (510 ml) water in your largest saucepan and simmer them over a gentle heat for 25-30 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and become tender and mushy. Then empty the entire contents of the pan into the sieve, lined with the muslin (or gauze) and placed over an equally large bowl or jug, and leave it to drip for a minimum of 8 hours or, preferably, overnight. Do not be tempted to press the cranberries; the juice may become cloudy, but it's important to leave it alone to drip away.
The next day, chill three or four saucers in the freezer compartment of the fridge. Now measure the juice and, for every 1 pint (570 ml), weigh out 10 oz (275 g) of sugar. Pour the juice back into the rinsed pan, add the sugar and stir over a gentle heat
until all the sugar has completely dissolved. Then add the claret, bring the mixture up to a fast, rolling boil and boil hard for about 10 minutes. (I always use a timer.)
After 10 minutes, test for a set. Remove the pan from the heat while you do so. Put a teaspoonful of jelly on to one of the chilled saucers, pop it back into the fridge for a few seconds, then push a finger gently through it. If the surface of the jelly wrinkles, setting point has been reached. If not, continue to boil and re-test at 5-minute intervals. Once the jelly has set, leave it to settle for 15 minutes or so, then pour it into the hot, sterilised jar (see below), filling it as full as possible, cover straightaway with a waxed disc, then seal tightly and label when cold. Store in a cool, dry, dark place.
To sterilise jars, wash the jars and lids in warm, soapy water, rinse well (again in warm water), then dry them thoroughly with a clean tea cloth, place them on a baking tray and pop them in a medium oven, gas mark 4, 350°F (180°C) for a minimum of 5 minutes. Add their contents while they are still hot.
Note: it is never practical to state the exact yield in a jelly recipe because it all depends on the ripeness of the fruit and the time allowed for dripping.

Christmas Pickled Shallots in Sherry Vinegar Recipes

Christmas Pickled Shallots in Sherry Vinegar Recipes


Christmas Pickled Shallots in Sherry Vinegar Recipes. One Xmas practice in our phratry is backward from midnight Collection to freshly scorched, distinct sausage rolls and equally fresh pickled onions. I person now observed that shallots with a immature sherry condiment accomplish a diametrical, kinda primary variant. They do run to terminate rather quick, I chance, so if you can transport to pol them, why not attain equivocal the abstraction beneath?



Procedure:

You need to begin 2 days ahead by placing the shallots in a 2 pint (1.2 litre) bowl. Then mix 1 pint (570 ml) water and the salt together, pour this over the shallots and leave them covered with a cloth for 2 days.
When you're ready to start pickling, bring the vinegars and mixed berries up to simmering point in a saucepan, then leave them to get quite cold. Meanwhile, drain the shallots in a colander, pat them dry with kitchen paper, then pile them into a 1 litre jar, which has been washed thoroughly in warm soapy water, rinsed, dried, then placed in a moderate oven for 5 minutes to sterilise. Pour the cold vinegar (plus the spices) into the jar, seal it tightly and leave in a cool place for 1 month before eating.

Christmas Pickled Beetroot with Shallots Recipes

Pickled Beetroot with Shallots

Pickled Beetroot with Shallots. Beetroot is vastly underestimated, in my judgement. Perhaps that's because the ironlike lager vinegar of the advertizing pickling masks the faithful kind of the beet, or maybe it's because of overboiling. But when ready in the pursuing way it provides a marvelously seasoned and rough support to parky cuts at Christmastime moment. To disinfect the jar, wet it good in enthusiastic cleaner nutrient, lave and change in a minimalist oven for 5 transactions.




Procedure:

Trim the beetroot and wipe them, but leave the skins on. Then wrap them all up together in a parcel of foil. Place the parcel on a baking sheet and bake them for about 3 hours or until they feel tender when pierced with a skewer. Now remove them from the oven and, as soon as they are cool enough to handle, peel off the skins and slice the beetroot thinly. Peel and thinly slice the shallots too, then layer the beetroot and shallots in the sterilised jar. Next place the vinegar, berries and salt in a small saucepan, bring up to simmering point, and pour the whole lot straight over the beetroot and shallots to cover them completely. Seal the jar immediately, label it when cold, then store. The beetroot doesn't need to mature – it can be eaten within a day or two and will keep well, provided it is always totally immersed in the vinegar (so you may need to top it up after you use some).
