Chicken loaf

Hi everyone,

With summer around the corner, we'd all like to have nice quick and tasty meals to have whether hot or cold. So I put this recipe together and yes it was great, it turned out better than expected.

Here goes....

CHICKEN LOAF

500g chicken mince
150g fetta cheese - crumbled
1 egg
1cup quick oats
3tea sugar (raw) but if u dont hve white is just as good
1 tea salt
splash port
splash whorchestshire sauce
chilli flakes

lastely I added a teaspoon of dukkah a seasoning of sesame seed, cumin, coriander, sumac and almond . This is only if you wanted a middle eastern taste, but other flavours work just as well.

NB you might be able to find this in the supermarket or look for it in your local delicatessan.

Now the easy part, just add all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

Made a gully down the middle of the loaf afterthe meats being put into the loaf tin and put tomato sauce on. Gently cover the tomato sauce with the chicken mix.

I used a loaf tin lined with baking paper which helped keep the juices from being dried up while the loaf was cooking and being able to spoon it back over the meat afterwards. lol makes for easy cleaning too.

Bake in a pre-heated oven set around 200 degress for about 45 to 50 minutes.

Served my chicken with steam vegies.

Enjoy!!!!!

yummy easy museli slice/granola

Hey guys,

Just came across a very easy and yummy recipe for museli slice/granola cereal
I have modified it to my personal taste, so enjoy experimenting with different foods. This was so yummy to eat as a snack....

Pre heat the oven to about 175 degrees

11/4 cups rolled oats
1 Tbsp Brown sugar
1/4 to 1/3 shredded coconut
1/4 cups crushed almonds
1/4 cups sunflower and pumpkin seeds
1/3 to 1/2 cup crasins, saltanas
50g melted butter
1/4 cups honey
1/4 tsp cinnamon
dash vanilla essesence

Melt butter, and add honey, vanilla essesence
Mix all dry ingredients well
Add the wet ingredients to the dry stuff and mix well

Once all the ingredients are mixed well spread well on a baking sheet
and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, depending on your oven

I left the slice to cool on the baking sheet so it could harden up to a massive slice, while cooking it will spread out out a little.
If your looking for more of a breakkie cereal break the slice up while still warm so u can get the clusters needed. I just break the slice up I have it as a cereal.

Store in an airtight container when cooled.

NB just remember all of the above ingredients is to ur own judgement whether you want it to be nutty, fruity, or how sweet you want the museli to be.

Hi everyone,

Tasty Spaghetti

You need

about 700g good mince meat (chicken is great too)
2 -3 lge cloves of garlic diced
1 med onion diced.
1 tin tomato soup (400g)
1 tin tomatoes (400g)
rock salt, cracked pepper, raw sugar(optional), mixed herbs (oregano, italian parsley, thyme, rosemary)
2 - 3 Tbsp portwine
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Heat up saucepan before adding about 1 Tbsp oil (I use olive), let the oil heat up before adding onions and garlic, saute till the onions soften and brown a little.
Next add the mince and brown, stiring to keep from sticking to the bottom.
Add about 1 tspn rock salt (trust me it's not a lot of salt for that amount on meat) and pepper
Add port and let cook for a couple of minutes , next add the whorchesterhire sauce.
Add herbs, tin soup and tin tomatoes.
Taste - if to your liking let simmer otherwise add

I at this stage I would add more of what I think it needs. (I like my dishes to be on the sweeter side so I would maybe add sugar and pepper to bring the flavour out.)

Serves 4 - 6 people

Serve with pasta and a nice green salad
any sort of lettuce variety
tomatoes chopped
red onion (thinly sliced)
carrot (thinly sliced)

Dressing
Balsamic vinegar
olive oil
salt
pepper
honey (use icing sugar if you haven't got any)
wholegrain mustard

all ingredients into a bottle and shake.

BON APPETITE

Remember there is no right or wrong, it depends on your taste buds.

Hey Everyone,

Hope you all enjoyed the sunny day we had today.

With nights getting cooler, nothing better than a nice hot chicken soup.
You need about 1kg of chicken (skinless thigh with bones is best or a whole chicken - remove some of the fat and skin), 1 to 11/2 water, carrots , celery, and any other veg you want, salt, sugar and pepper. Bring the water to a boil and add the chicken with seasoning. Scope the impurities off the surface. Boil for about 1/2 hour before adding the carrots and other vegies. Boil for about another 1/2 hour. Check the soup is to your liking. Can add extra seasoning if needed.

This really goes well with the chicken soup
Garlic and ginger condiment.
Dice about 3 to 4 Tbsp garlic and ginger finely, add about 1 plus tsp salt. Heat 3Tbsp of oil till just about smoking and pour onto ginger and garlic placed in a china bowl. NB PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN POURING OIL .

Serve it with steamed rice.
