'98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 pounds fish fillets for 6-to 8-oz per serving salt and pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 medium red onion -- thinly sliced 1 bell pepper -- thinly sliced 2 garlic cloves -- minced 1 teaspoon fresh ginger -- peeled and minced 1/4 cup fish sauce OR substitute chicken broth ***SAUCE*** 1/4 cup chicken broth 1/4 teaspoon curry paste -- or more to taste red or yellow or green curry paste 1/3 cup coconut milk regular or reduced-fat 1 tablespoon brown sugar; optl -- or more to taste 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves -- thinly sliced 2/3 cup diced fresh tomato ***SERVE*** hot cooked rice Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add fish and lightly brown on one side. Flip fish over; add onion, peppers, garlic, ginger and fish sauce and cook other side until fish is firm. (Total cooking time will depend on the type and thickness of fish. An average catfish fillet that's -3/4-inch thick should be cooked approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Thicker cuts will take a few minutes more.) Transfer fish from skillet to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Increase heat to high and add chicken broth, curry paste and coconut milk to skillet. Stir to blend and bring to a boil. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until sauce begins to thicken. If the sauce is a bit too spicy or if you would like a sweeter sauce, stir in brown sugar to taste. Just before serving, stir in basil leaves. Pour sauce over fish and garnish with tomato. Serve with steamed white or jasmine rice. ARCHIVES: Article by Ann Burger, Charleston.net 28-0ct-98. Desktop of Pat Hanneman (kitpath@earthlink.net). FareShare Gazette 10/28/98.

* Exported from MasterCook * Flax and Pumpernickel Loaf Recipe By : Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Breads - Yeast Volume 1, Oct. '98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 1/2 cups warm water 2 tablespoons honey 2 teaspoons dry yeast 2/3 cup milled flax (Get it in a health food store and mill it yourself with your coffee grinder) 2/3 cup pumpernickel 4 cups White wheat flour (King Arthur makes this) 1 tablespoon salt 2/3 cup all purpose flour Pour the water into a mixing bowl and stir in the honey and yeast. After the yeast has proofed, stir in the flax, pumpernickel and one cup of the whole wheat flour. Let this sponge work overnight or all day. Stir in the salt, and enough of the remaining whole wheat flour to make a good dough. Turn it out onto a flour covered surface and knead for 4 to 5 minutes. It will be somewhat sticky but use only enough more flour to keep it from sticking to you or the kneading surface. Give the dough a rest while you clean out and grease your bowl. Continue kneading another 2 or 3 minutes or until it's as smooth and springy as a whole wheat dough can be. Place the dough in the bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in bulk. Knock the dough down, shape and place in a 4 1/2 x 8 1/2 loaf pan, or make round loaves and place on cookie sheet. Let rise until it domes over the top of the pan, or about doubles. Place in a preheated 400º oven, bake for 15 minutes. Turn the temperature down to 350º and continue baking for a further 2 minutes.

Fruits seeded ... with a Cajun-spiced striper included pear, nectarine, pineapple, mango, cantaloupe and orange. Leysath says to use your imagination, along with the best fruits in season - apple, watermelon, grapefruit, kiwi, peach, papaya, etc. "Serve your fruit salsa with any variety of cooked fish," he says. "I like to season the fish with a little hot spice, such as ground cayenne pepper. Try serving room- temperature fruit salsa with Cajun-spiced blackened fish." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
