Recipes!
Here you are, the recipes for august and september methinks…
Recipe 1: Tuna “salad”:
You will notice I use the term ’salad’ quite loosely here, much in the same way that a Real Greek salad (away from the tourist attractions) actually doesn’t contain a single leaf of said vegetable.
1 can tuna (in water!!)
1 tomato
1 tbsp oregano or pizzamix
1 tbsp grillmix
1 dash/to taste of Worchestershire sauce (any brand should do, we used Heinz)
1 tsp garlic powder
some peppermix
some grated cheese of your choice
Chop the tomato into bits, put everything in a bowl or large soupdish and mix. Ready. Enjoy!
Fast and - dare I say it - delicious even.
Recipe 2: Beef and noodles:
This food came about as I was going to make jerky of the beef, but then didn’t have time to put it in the oven. So, what we got was a wicked stew of extremely delicious beef strips with noodles! Try it, I dare you. No, I double dare you..!
1 kg / 2,2 lbs of lowfat beef cut into strips
3 servings of noodles
Marinade:
0,5 dl / 1/4 cup Soy sauce
0,5 dl / 1/4 cup Worchestershire sauce (any brand, but again we used Heinz..)
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp ground pepper (black, white, mix…any kind really)
+optinal seasonings to taste, such as cayenne, chili, A-1 steak sauce, dragon, whatever.
Marinade the beef strips at least overnight (we use Tupperware’s Season-server(R) container).
Fry the strips regularly in a large frying pan, as you would any beef (I used a steel pan with Ceratec lining). Cook the noodles or have them ready.
When you’ve fried all the beef, throw in the noodles and fry them too for a bit. Now, if you have any marinade left in your marinating pot/can/bowl, throw it in and let simmer for a few minutes. Done.
Enjoy!
As a last thought, I think both Tupperware and Iittala/Hackman ought to pay me for this wonderful plug on their respective products. If they don’t think so, then I’ll add this: They’re the best manufacturers of, of, of - um, kitchenware and plastic thingies ever!!
