Guest guest Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hello everyone, Thank you for letting me join the group. I just love recipes and now that I am suffering continual bad health, I think it is time I reviewed my food choices and get as healthy as possible. I live in Australia, am half a century old, have five children, two dogs and one cat. I have a recipe for you all and will look forward to trying out yours. This dish serves two. Potato Bake with Onions 500g (1lb) floury potatoes, quartered 2/3 cup whipping cream 2 T sunflower oil 1 egg, beaten 2 onions, sliced into rings and separated. Salt, pinch nutmeg 1 Granny Smith apple ( the green ones) 2 T sunflower or sesame 45g (1 1/2 oz) Parmesan cheese seeds. Grease or oil a heatproof dish. Preheat oven to 220C (450F/Gas7) Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Add potatoes and cook until soft. Heat oil in frying pan and add onion rings. Fry for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Set pan aside. Peel, quarter and core apple. Cut into fairly thin slices. Drain potatoes, return to dry pan and mash finely. Add cream and egg. Beat until smooth and creamy, then season with salt and nutmeg. Spoon half the potato mixture on to the base of the prepared dish. Smooth surface. Cover with half the onions, all of the apple and half the cheese. Spread over remaining potato mixture, then rest of onions and cheese. Sprinkle with sunflower or sesame seeds and bake for 15 minutes. Serve at once. This is a complete meal but can be served with a green salad or vegetables and trusty, crusty bread.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hi Anne, welcome to the garden! Your recipe looks delicious and I do believe that will be Sunday dinner. How goes your winter down there? Question: Any ideas on a taste alike recipe for Tim Tams? (I know, heresy!) My grandson is wanting those and his mum cannot afford to send any over right now. Found some places online to get them but then the shipping was enough to pay for the QE II to deliver them to my door. First class. *shudders* (For those who have not yet been blessed by a Tim Tam in the mouth, it is a cookie, aka biscuit. It is bliss. Heaven. Nirvana.) Nuts, now I want cookies again. (biscuits) Welcome again, Jeanne in Georgia Get on board. You're invited to try the new Mail Beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
