Ajvar
Recipe By :
Categories : Appetizers Yugoslavia.com

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
8 fresh red paprika (mild or medium-hot to
taste, 8 to 12 red paprika)
4 medium-size eggplants
1/2 cup olive oil or corn oil -- (1/2 to 3/4 cup)
1 large onion -- minced
3 large garlic cloves -- chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice (1 to 2 tablespoons)
OR
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (1 to 2 tablespoons)
Salt and pepper -- to taste
Chopped fresh parsley -- for garnish
Roast the paprika and eggplants over charcoal or a gas flame, or bake them
in a preheated 475�F oven, until the skin is blistered and black. Place
the roasted vegetables in a paper bag and let them steam in their own heat
for 10 minutes. Peel off and discard the burnt skin along with the steams
and seeds. Mash the peppers and eggplant pulp together to form a
homogeneous mass � completely smooth or slightly chunky, as desired. You
can do this with a fork or in a food processor.
Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet and saut� the onion until
very soft. Add garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat
and stir in the pepper-eggplant pulp, mixing well. Slowly drizzle the
remaining oil into the mixture, stirring constantly to incorporate all of
the oil. Add lemon juice or vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste.
Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with parsley.
Serve as an appetizer to spread on thick slices of country-style white

bread or flat pita bread, or use as a side dish to accompany grilled or
roasted meats.
6 to 8 servings, as an appetizer or side dish.

NOTES : Pronounced eye-vaar, this is a name to a popular type of appetizer

or side dish made of roasted paprika, unripe tomatoes, and even
string beans can be combined into ajvar. Fresh ajvar is always
made during summer and early autumn, just after the paprika
harvest, when many households also can or bottle their own ajvar
for use throughout the year.

Aloo Paratha
Recipe By :
Categories : Amma's Indian Recipes Appetizers
Breads Snacks

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
250 grams whole wheat flour (atta)
4 big potatoes (aloo)
1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon ginger paste
4 teaspoons coriander leaves -- (finely chopped)
Salt -- to taste
Boil potatoes, peel and mash them. Add ginger, cumin, salt and coriander
leaves and mix well.
In flour, add 2 teaspoon butter and sufficient amount of water (about 1

1/4 cups) and make it into dough like bread dough (basically add enough
water to form the dough into a ball).
The dough is made into small balls and the balls are flattened (not
rolled, just flattened between the hands). The potato mixture from step 1
is also made into balls, about the same size as the dough balls, and
placed on top of the flattened ball of dough. The dough is then shaped
around this top ball so that you're left with a dough ball again, but with
the mashed potato mixture at its center.
Carefully roll the dough, until it is thinly spread with the potato
mixture still inside the center. The thickness should be roughly equal to
half the thickness of pita bread or about one and a half times the
thickness of a tortilla (it's surface area should be about that of a
tortilla).
In a wide nonstick pan on medium heat add 3-4 teaspoons of butter and
place the rolled dough inside. When small bubbles start appearing on the
surface, turn it over and cook for a few more minutes. Then turn it over
again and add about 2 tsp. of butter. Do this until both sides of the
rolled dough are golden brown. An Aloo Paratha is ready!

Some people prefer a strong aroma of asafoetida while others do

not. In case you prefer it stronger, add asafoetida to the skillet
just before adding rice instead of adding as mentioned in the
recipe. (Rice retains the flavor of asafoetida much better than
oil.)

NOTES : Making a newer, slimmer appearance is today's version of Beef

Stroganoff. Named for the Russian diplomat, Count Stroganov, this
typically high-cholesterol dish gets its more slenderizing creamy
sauce from low-fat sour cream. And because the lean beef is sliced
paper thin, it takes just minutes to prepare. What's more, an
entire pound of chunky quartered mushrooms in this version means
less meat is needed to achieve the recipe's characteristic
heartiness.

1 tablespoon green chiles (chopped)
1/2 cup coriander leaves
10 mint leaves

Grind Set 3 into a powder. Add to the powder all the ingredients of Set 2
and Set 1, except for the cashew nuts. Mix thoroughly.
Now add cashew nuts and mix well. Keep adding a few drops of water while
mixing so that the mixture is semi-dry, just moist enough to form into
balls. Break the dough into little balls, or any other shape you desire
(small enough to fry easily).
Heat oil in a wide skillet. When the oil is moderately hot, reduce heat to
low. Add dough balls (pakoras) and fry over low heat such that they turn
light golden brown. Do not fry until deep brown, because cashew nut gives
a burnt smell if over-fried.

Ajvar
Recipe By :

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
8 fresh red paprika (mild or medium-hot to
taste, 8 to 12 red paprika)
4 medium-size eggplants
1/2 cup olive oil or corn oil -- (1/2 to 3/4 cup)
1 large onion -- minced
3 large garlic cloves -- chopped
OR
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (1 to 2 tablespoons)
Chopped fresh parsley -- for garnish
Roast the paprika and eggplants over charcoal or a gas flame, or bake them
in a preheated 475�F oven, until the skin is blistered and black. Place
the roasted vegetables in a paper bag and let them steam in their own heat
for 10 minutes. Peel off and discard the burnt skin along with the steams
and seeds. Mash the peppers and eggplant pulp together to form a
homogeneous mass � completely smooth or slightly chunky, as desired. You
can do this with a fork or in a food processor.
Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet and saut� the onion until
very soft. Add garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat
and stir in the pepper-eggplant pulp, mixing well. Slowly drizzle the
remaining oil into the mixture, stirring constantly to incorporate all of
the oil. Add lemon juice or vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste.
Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with parsley.
Serve as an appetizer to spread on thick slices of country-style white

city, required lengthy simmering in its old-fashioned form. Now it
cooks up in less than half an hour, and its fragrant lacing of

with skinless, boneless chicken breasts and heaps of mushroom

NOTES : Chicken with Piquillos, Tomatoes and Olives is an adaptation of a

traditional Spanish dish, pairs piquillo peppers and pitted green
olives both available on supermarket shelves-with quick-cooking
skinless, boneless chicken breasts and fresh vegetables. Sweet and
slightly piquant piquillo peppers, which are grown in northern
Spain, are roasted over an open fire, peeled and packed into jars.
They add a distinctive Spanish accent to this speedy skillet
supper.

Gateau au Chocolate L'eminence Brune (Bittersweet Chocolate Cake)

Recipe By :
Categories : Cakes Chocolate Manufacturers Assn.

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
THE CHOCOLATE
2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee
1/4 cup boiling water
7 ounces semi-sweet baking chocolate
2 ounces unsweetened (bitter) chocolate
THE CAKE PANS

2 8" � 1 1/2" round one-piece cake pans (4
cup capacity)
2 teaspoons soft butter
2 rounds wax paper -- cut to fit bottom of pans
1/4 cup flour
THE BATTER
4 large eggs -- if chilled, set in tepid water for 5 minutes
3/4 cup sugar -- extra-fine granulated if possible
4 ounces soft unsalted butter (one stick)
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons additional sugar
3/4 cup cornstarch
FOR THE CHOCOLATE AND BUTTER GLAZE

1 teaspoon instant espresso coffee
2 tablespoons boiling water
4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate
2 ounces unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and set rack in lower-middle level of the
oven.
_______________
The Chocolate
Blend the coffee and water in the pan, set in larger pan of simmering
water, and remove from heat. Break up the chocolate, stir it into the
coffee; cover and set aside to melt slowly until you are ready to use it.
_______________
The Cake Pans

Smear butter inside both cake pans, covering them completely. Place wax
paper in bottom of each, butter it, then roll flour around in first pan to
coat inside completely. Knock flour out into second pan, coat it, and
knock out excess flour.
_______________
The Batter
Separate the eggs, dropping the whites into the beating bowl, and the
yolks in the mixing bowl. Start beating the egg yolks, gradually adding in
the sugar, and continue until yolks are thick, pale yellow, and, when a
bit is lifted in blades of beater, it drops off in a thick ribbon that
slowly dissolves on the surface of the mixture � about 3 minutes of
beating.
_______________
Finishing the Chocolate

Chocolate should now be soft. If not, remove pan and reheat water; remove
from heat, set chocolate pan in again, and beat the chocolate with the
portable mixer until perfectly smooth. Beat in the butter, 2 tablespoons
at a time, then gradually beat the chocolate and butter into the egg-yolk
mixture.
_______________
The Egg Whites

Immediately change beater blades, (or rapidly and thoroughly wash and dry
dirty blades), and proceed to the egg whites. Start beating at moderately
low speed for a minute or so, until foaming, and beat in cream of tartar
and salt. Gradually increase speed to fast and continue beating until egg
whites hold their shape in soft peaks; they are now ready to be folded
into cake batter. (Time: 2 to 4 minutes, circulating beater consistently
around bowl for fastest action.)
_______________
Folding
Being sure chocolate and egg-yolks mixture is smooth and soft � stir over
hot water if yolks have stiffened � sift in one-quarter of the cornstarch,
and scoop in one-quarter of the egg whites; stir in with rubber spatula.
Then scoop rest of egg whites on top, sift in one-third of the remaining
cornstarch, and begin to fold as follows: Plunge rubber spatula down from
top center of egg whites to bottom of bowl, bring to edge of bowl, then
turn it as you lift it back up to the surface, thus bringing a bit of the
chocolate up over the egg whites. Rapidly repeat the movement several
times, rotating the bowl as you do so. Sift in half the rest of the
cornstarch, continue with several rapid scoops of the spatula, then sift
in the last of the cornstarch, and continue folding until blended. The
whole process should not take much more than a minute, and your object is
to deflate the egg whites as little as possible.
_______________
In the Cake Pans

At once turn the batter into the two prepared cake pans, running it up the
edge all around with your spatula to prevent cakes from humping in the
middle as they bake. Pans will be about half full. Bang once on work
surface to settle batter and place in preheated oven, one near rear corner
of the rack and the other diagonally across near the front corner.
_______________
Baking
Set timer for 15 minutes. Cake will rise to about top of pans and are done
when only the center shakes a little when moved gently. A cake tester
should come out almost clean when inserted around the edges, but have a
number of wet brown specks attached to it when plunged in the center 2
inches.
_______________
Cooling and Unmolding

Set pans on rack, for air circulation, and let cool. Cakes will sink
slightly, and will shrink from sides of pan. Because cake texture is very
soft and delicate, you will find them easier to unmold when chilled and
firm; thus, when cool, wrap and refrigerate for an hour or so.
_______________
Filling, Icing, and Serving

Melt chocolate with the coffee as described above, then beat in the
butter. If too liquid for easy spreading, beat over ice cold water until
lightly thickened. Unmold one of the cakes directly onto serving plate and
stick pieces of wax paper underneath all around to catch icing dribbles.
Spread top with a 1/4 inch layer of icing. With the help of a
flexible-blade spatula, unmold second cake on top of the first. Cover top
and sides with icing. Peel out the wax paper strips from under the cake.
If you are serving soon, leave at room temperature; otherwise, cover with
an upside-down bowl and refrigerate. Let come to room temperature for an
hour or so before serving to let the chocolate icing regain its bloom and
the cake its texture. 8" x 2" cake.

NOTES : This is a very special chocolate cake � very chocolaty, brown,

bittersweet, and buttery, yet very light and delicate in texture.
It really needs no icing at all, but is nevertheless filled and
covered with a glittering chocolate-butter glaze. Like most French
chocolate cakes it is moist, and, even by other standards,
slightly underdone. As for technique, rather than being a
whole-egg batter, this is the separated egg method where you beat
the yolks and sugar, add the melted chocolate, and fold in
stiffly-beaten egg whites. To keep the cake light, sifted
cornstarch rather than flour goes in. You can make a chocolate
cake with no starch at all, by the way, but to my mind you produce
more of a chocolate pudding than a cake.
From the Chocolate Manufacturers Association Luncheon at the home

of Julia Child in Cambridge, Massachusetts in September 1995
Equipment:
� For melting chocolate, a covered 6-cup saucepan and a second pan
of simmering water that will hold the first
� a clean dry beating bowl for the egg whites
� a 3 to 4 quart mixing bowl for the yolks
� a portable electric beater with, if possible, 2 sets of blades
� a sifter set over wax paper
� a cake tester or wooden toothpick.

Kobbari Annamu (Coconut Rice)
Recipe By :

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups basmati rice
1 medium coconut
Salt -- to taste
15 cashew nuts
3 1/2 cups water
3 cardamom
4 whole clove
1 pinch turmeric
Wash basmati rice, drain and keep aside. Meanwhile remove meat from the
coconut, cut it into 1-inch cubes, add 3 cups water to it and grind it
thoroughly. Filter this mixture and retain the liquid. Keep it aside.
In a deep skillet, heat butter on low. Then add cardamom, cinnamon,

turmeric, cloves, cashew nuts. Fry until cashew nuts are pale brown.
Add finely chopped onion and add the basmati rice when onions are brown.
Stir for five minutes. Then add salt and coconut milk, which was extracted
above and raise the heat to high. *(see notes)
When the liquid starts boiling, lower heat, cover with a lid and simmer.
Stir occasionally and simmer till all the liquid is absorbed.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat butter and sugar. When sugar melts and
turns brown, add rice and fry for 5 minutes on high heat. Then add water
and salt and let it come to a boil.
Lower heat and let it cook until the water content decreases to less than
half. Then add milk (in which the saffron is soaking) and simmer on low
heat. Simmer until all liquid is absorbed.

NOTES : *You might have noticed that in this recipe we have used only 2
cups of basmati rice for four servings while in the other rice
recipes we have used 2 1/2 cups for the same four servings. The
reason for this is that coconut rice is richer and feels heavier
than the other rice dishes. Hence 2 cups will do for 4 servings.

Pork-and-Paprika Stew (Leskovaccka Muchkalica)
Recipe By :
Categories : Pork Yugoslavia.com

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 pounds boneless pork -- thinly sliced and cut into long strips
about 1/2 inch wide
3 medium onions -- cut crosswise thinly and separated into rings
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons hot paprika powder
1 green bell pepper -- seeds removed, cut lengthwise into
strips
1 red bell pepper -- seeds removed, cut lengthwise into
strips
1 yellow bell pepper -- seeds removed, cut lengthwise into
strips
2 serranos, fresh or canned (2 to 3) -- cut crosswise into
small rings
1 cup beef stock
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 large garlic cloves (2 to 3) -- minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 bay leaf
Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of oil together in a large

pot. When the oil is very hot, add the pork in batches and brown on all
sides, about 5 minutes. Remove pork.
Add the remaining butter and oil to the drippings in the pan. When hot,
add the onions and cook them over medium heat, stirring constantly, until
they are soft and golden colored. Sprinkle the flour and paprika powder
over the onions and cook for 2 minutes longer, stirring constantly. Reduce
the heat and add the pork and the sliced peppers, beef stock, tomato
paste, minced garlic, salt, and bay leaf. Stir to mix well. (There will
seem to be not enough liquid in the mixture, but don't panic and add more
stock. As the paprika cooks, it will release plenty of moisture.) Increase
the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce heat to low, cover
the pot, and let the muchkalica simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Stir the
mixture occasionally.
Serve muchkalica with white rice, a green salad, a side dish of thick
Bulgarian-type yogurt, and hot cornbread� all washed down with cold beer
or a strong red wine.

Raspberry/Blackberry Trifle
Recipe By :

RASPBERRY LAYER
1 1/2 cups frozen whole raspberries
3 tablespoons sugar -- or to taste
1 tablespoon raspberry or other berry liqueur (1 to 2
tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen whole raspberries
BLACKBERRY LAYER
1 1/2 cups frozen whole blackberries
3 tablespoons sugar -- or to taste
1 tablespoon raspberry or other berry liqueur (1 to 2
tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen whole blackberries
LIGHT CUSTARD
4 1/2 cups skim milk
5 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
4 teaspoons clear vanilla extract
OR
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 medium angel food cake (about 17 ounces)
2 tablespoons raspberry or other berry liqueur
Berry Layers: Thaw 1 1/2 cups of raspberries and process in blender or

food processor to make a pur�e. (NOTE: Measure all berries in fresh or
frozen state.) Strain through a fine sieve to remove seeds. Stir in sugar
and berry liqueur. Refrigerate for later use. May be made several days
ahead. Follow same procedure for blackberry pur�e. (HINT: Pint squirt
bottles are helpful tools in storing pur�e as well as in assembly of
finished Trifle.)
Light Custard: Using double boiler, heat 4 cups milk until steam rises
from the surface.
In a separate bowl, combine eggs, remaining 1/2 cup milk and 1 cup sugar.
Sift in cornstarch, and whisk until well blended.
Remove scalded milk from heat, and gradually whisk in egg mixture. Return
pan to top of double boiler and whisk constantly over medium heat until
very thick and smooth, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla
or almond extract. Transfer to bowl, press plastic wrap onto surface, and
allow to cool slightly.
Assembly: Cut cake in 1" to 2" cubes. (This can be done ahead, placing
cubes in sealed plastic bag.) Arrange 1/2 the cake squares on the bottom
of the trifle bowl, including any irregular shapes. Sprinkle with 1
tablespoon berry liqueur and evenly distribute raspberry pur�e mixture
over cake layer. Arrange berries evenly in a layer, especially around
sides. Spoon 1/2 the custard over berries. Repeat with remaining cake,
liqueur, blackberry pur�e, blackberries, any additional fruit and custard.
Cover and chill at least 4 hours or one day ahead. Garnish with additional
berries and fruit in the center just before serving.

NOTES : Contrary to its humble and unassuming name, "English Trifle," this
very traditional English sweet pudding is anything but a mere
trifle. This lusciously layered m�lange of sherry-soaked
spongecake and cr�me anglaise adorned with jam, fresh fruit and
whipped cream, is indeed conventional in its liberal use of
fat-laden ingredients. But hold on to your waistline, this
lightened version featuring fresh or frozen raspberries and
blackberries and a lightened custard weighs in at just 2 grams of
fat per 3/4 cup serving, with a taste and presentation that would
compel even Shakespeare to partake. (Shakespeare was well aware of
these delicious fruits, as it is from Shakespeare's King Henry IV
that the popular English saying "plentiful as blackberries" is
derived.)

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
STUFFING
3 medium potatoes
1 cup green peas
1 cup shredded cabbage
2 medium onions
2 long green chiles
2 tablespoons chopped mint leaves
1/2 cup chopped coriander leaves
3 tablespoons oil
Salt -- to taste
DOUGH
1 1/2 cups refined wheat flour (maida)
3 tablespoons oil
Salt (1/2 teaspoon) -- to taste
Oil -- to deep fry
Boil potatoes, peel and slightly mash. Boil peas and cabbage. Keep aside.
In a nonstick pan, heat oil, add chopped onions and cook until light
brown. Add ginger paste, coriander, mint, green chili and fry for one
minute. Now add salt and the boiled peas, cabbage and mashed potatoes.
Stir well. Let cook for a minute, remove from heat and keep aside.
Making the samosas: Mix flour and salt. Now warm oil and add to the flour
and salt mixture. Mix well. Gradually add about 3/4 cup water to the
mixture and make into a dough. The consistency of the dough is slightly
harder than bread dough.
Divide the dough into 13 balls and flatten the balls with a rolling pin
into circles. Cut these circles into two equal parts (half circles). Wet
the edges of each half circle, place sufficient amount of stuffing in the
middle of the half circle and fold the corners in so that the end result
looks like a stuffed triangle. Pinch the edges lightly; they should seal
easily because they are wet.
Now in a wide skillet, heat oil over medium and when oil is hot, fry the
stuffed samosas until they become pale brown in color. Remove from skillet
and keep aside. After frying all the samosas to a pale brown color, refry
them once again to a deep brown color over medium heat. Is a great
appetizer. Cooking Time: 20 minutes for stuffing; 20 minutes frying
samosas. Can be served with ketchup or hot sauce.

NOTES : Spain is quite famous for its seafood stews, and Shrimp Zarzuela
reflects this culinary heritage. Golden Spanish olive oil, unique
sherry wine vinegar, sweet paprika and fragrant saffron are the
Spanish flavors that give this one-pot meal its character. The
traditional seafood dishes of Spain use a variety of shellfish
from the Mediterranean Sea; we simplified the recipe by focusing
on ever-popular shrimp. Round out either of these meals by serving
a premiere cheese from Spain, such as Manchego or Cabrales.

The concept of wraps is nothing new. Their popularity reaches

around the globe with almost every ethnic cuisine contributing its
own wrap version � from burritos to sushi to spring rolls. Wraps
shops have cropped up around the country, but you don't have to
eat out to enjoy the flavors of the world. Wraps are quick and
healthy, and easy to make at home when using versatile,
good-for-you ingredients like pork and naturally fat-free honey.
Pork, the world's most popular meat, is frequently featured in

wrap recipes because it pairs so well with a broad range of
seasonings and flavors. Easy-to-prepare pork roast is shredded and
combined with fillings like vegetables, rice and beans. Quick
sauces with the diverse flavors of Thai, Tex-Mex and Mediterranean
cuisines, can be tempered with the natural sweetness of honey.
Choose a tortilla, pita or lettuce leaf and you're ready to roll.
Healthful, tasty fillings wrapped into a neat, hand-held package �

that's how the world wraps.

Uthappam-H2
Recipe By :
Side Dishes Snacks

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 cups white rice
1 cup split black gram
1 teaspoon baking soda
Salt -- to taste
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onions
4 medium green chiles -- finely chopped
2 teaspoons cumin
15 curry leaves -- chopped
3 teaspoons for each uthappam oil (3 to 4 teaspoons)
For Batter: Mix rice and black gram together. Wash thoroughly and soak in
sufficient amount of water for six hours. Then drain the water, add salt,
and grind in a processor while adding about 3 cups of water (consistency
should be that of beaten yogurt, not watery, but definitely not doughy).
Put it in a deep pot, cover and leave aside in warm room temperature to
ferment for two days. The batter should have risen and little bubbles may
also appear on the surface. It must be well fermented.
When you are ready to cook the uthappams, add one teaspoon of soda to the
batter and stir it. If you want to leave aside some batter for another
time, only add the soda to the portion you are going to cook.
For Cooking the Batter: Add finely chopped onions, chopped green chiles,
cumin, and chopped curry leaves to the batter and stir. In a wide,
nonstick skillet (about the diameter of a ping-pong paddle), add two
tablespoon of cooking oil, heat over medium, and pour enough batter to
cover the entire bottom of the skillet, to about 3/4 inches thickness.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of oil on top and cover with lid. After 10
minutes, turn it upside down and cook likewise for 10 minutes on low heat.
You will know it's done when it's brown. Remove from heat.

Serving Ideas : Tastes good by itself. Can be a filling snack, but also a good
substitute for lunch or dinner. Uthappam goes very well with Indian pickles,
especially mango pickles or lemon pickles (available in Indian stores). Always buy
the most recently made pickles. One more thing: You can also add peas, finely
chopped cauliflower, boiled carrots, etc. to the batter, but tomato will not work.
NOTES : Preparation time: 2 days (for batter), 12 minutes (cooking time
for each Uthappam).
