| Moqueca de peixe (bahian style fish stew) |
|
Yield: 4 Servings |
|
3 Sprigs fr. cilantro 1 Md-sz ripe tomato -quartered 1/2 Md-sz green bell -pepper seeded 1 Md-sz onion quart. Salt and black pepper 2 lb Fish fillets (cod |
|
| -scrod haddock or any -white firm-fleshed -fish) 1 tb Fresh lemon juice 1/2 c Thin coconut milk* 2 tb Dende* 2 tb Peanut oil *Heat a coconut in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes so it will develop fault lines. Remove from oven and, holding it in a cloth (it will be
hot) over a large bowl, hit it along the fault lines with a hammer or
heavy mallet. The coconut will open. Reserve the liquid, remove the
meat from the shell and take off the brown outer pieces with a
pairing knife. Grate the coconut meat, either with a hand grater or
in a food processor. Wrap in cheesecloth and pour 1/2 cup warm water
over it while holding it over a bowl. Squeeze the liquid from the
coconut into the bowl. This is thick coconut milk. Add the reserved
coconut water and grated coconut residue. This is the only way to get
the true Brazilian taste. Otherwise, you can buy a bottle of coconut
milk from specialty stores (and it is pretty hideous). African
markets in the United States. Chop the coriander, tomato, pepper, and
onion in a food processor until you have a coarse paste. Then place
the mixture in a large, heavy skillet over low heat. Add the salt and
pepper and cook for 15 minutes. Add the fish fillets to the mixture
and continue cooking for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Add the
remaining ingredients, stir and allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Serve
the moqueca hot with white rice and Farofa.

Title: MORE FILLINGS FOR TASSIES
Categories: Breads
Yield: 6 Servings
6 1/2 tb Sugar
1/4 c Butter
1/4 c Lemon juice
2 Eggs
1/4 To 1/2 tsp lemon peel
SOURCE: Natl Cooking Echo 19 Jun 90
Contributed to the echo by: Debra Heng
I haven't made these lemon ones yet, but I scaled down a larger
recipe from some cookbook to resemble the pecan tassie proportions,
hoping to have enough lemon filling for a batch of tartlets. So it
may or may not be enough, thought I'd let ya know.
LEMON TASSIE FILLING
In a small saucepan over low heat, cook the 1 st three until
dissolved. Beat the eggs with a mixer and add the hot mix very
slowly, mixing constantly. Then return mix to the saucepan and cook
for about 3 minutes until it's of pudding consistency. Stir in lemon
peel. Let cool to room temp. Fill each tartlet with about 2 tsps of
the lemon mix. Bake at 350 F for 20-25 mins., or until golden.
The back of the tart tamper package also suggested some other
fillings, like cherry or blueberry pie filling, or vanilla pudding
topped afterwards with a strawberry or a few blueberries (glaze with
some heated currant jelly).
