Yesterday I made 10 dozen sausage rolls for the freezer. They make
great snacks for times when the teenagers say "I'm hungry". Seven
dozen actually made it into the freezer!

Dinner last night was a beef stew topped with parsley dumplings served
with honey carrots and steamed snake beans and broccolini.

I have some butter puff pastry left over from the sausage rolls and a
bunch of shallots from a friend so I am going to make this for lunch.

Husband went fishing yesterday, he came home soaked to the skin but
bearing one of these

and a monster one of these

http://www.fish.wa.gov.au/Species/WA...s/default.aspx

They are two of my favourite fish.The dhufish has been filleted and
now resides in the freezer. The pink snapper just fits in my baking
dish (with its head removed) and will be dinner tonight. I will encase
in foil, put some herbs, onion and lemon in the gut cavity and over
the top, splash in some chardonnay, seal up the foil and bake. I will
make a butter/lemon/white wine sauce with the juices and serve over
buttery mash with a salad on the side.

If the weather is fine over the weekend I will take a bunch of the
grand kids to our favourite mussel collecting spot and harvest some to
make chili mussels.

I did not cook last night. We took my mom out to eat.

Still using up freezer food. Wouldn't you know that husband developed a
mouth ulcer when I planned to serve him hot salsa. So instead he has gauc
and sour cream. I have salsa verde. We are both having beef taquitos (365,
Whole Foods), pinto beans from scratch and some rice made with green
peppers, cilantro, tomato sauce and vegetable stock. I didn't want to make
it spicy.

Daughter is having mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, raw carrots and red
peppers.

Interesting! Thanks! Not sure the teens here would eat those though.

Not something I could eat. I think puff pastry has butter in it and I'm not
a big sausage fan. I just can't envision teens wanting to eat such a thing.
But maybe that's because most of the ones I am familiar with are dancers and
they tend to eat stuff like grapes and carrots.

Maybe where you live. Here, people are pretty health conscious and I don't
see too many of them talking about or eating things with sausage in them.

Hmmm... Perhaps sausage is more commonly eaten in some places versus
others. I don't hear of too many people eating it here. Perhaps once or
twice a year I will make kielbasa or Polish sausage, mainly because I find a
good sale. Perhaps Bratwurst once a year. Husband is really the only person
who eats this stuff and I don't think they are his favorite foods. A little
more often I will do breakfast type sausages only because they are cheap and
quick to fix.

I keep hearing and seeing of that sausage ball recipe that has Bisquick in
it. Supposed to be a great party food but I've never been to a party where
they served it.

I did go to parties in CA where they commonly served a cheese dip of Rotel,
Velveeta and sausage but I'm not sure what kind of sausage. It was okay but
I think it would have been better with either no meat or ground beef.
Sausage is just so fatty. I can only eat it once in a while and in small
quantities.

I don't remember having sausage too often when I was growing up. I think we
had bacon more often than sausage and we didn't have that too often either.

Really, does your computer not have a search engine? You couldn't have
looked this up on your own?

We also had beef stew. It was made out of the trimmings from a beef
tenderloin, so it was *really* good. (We buy whole tenderloins a
couple times a year when they are on special, and cut them into
steaks. The stuff trimmed off is used for stew or stir-fry.) Sliced
carrots and cubed potatoes in the stew. No dumplings, but I had a
piece of bread and gravy, which was just about as good.

It's so hot here that beef stew would seem a strange thing to be
cooking, but I just had a hysterectomy a couple of weeks ago, and my
appetite has been trashed. It's just starting to come back a bit. Beef
stew is what I fancied, so that's what my husband made for me.

I made mine from cubed chuck.

I know where you are coming from. Whenever I get sick I lose my
appetite so I eat whatever it is I may feel like, even if it a
smoothie.

Of course I could have looked it up but that doesn't mean that the recipe I
see is what the OP made.

Not much point in being in a discussion group if you just google everything.

True and as I said, I would have no way of knowing what was actually made.
That link also brought up a sandwich recipe.

The tarte tatin is just about ready and smells great. I will slice up
a couple of tomatoes to go with it.

Shallots. It was caramelised, gooey and delicious.

>How do you make your sausage rolls?


I use a good quality plain beef sausage mince from my butcher, it
needs to have enough fat that they are juicy without being so fatty
that fat runs out everywhere. If you cannot buy loose sausage mince
you can take the skins off sausages and use that meat. For every kilo
of sausage mince add:

1 small onion very finely diced
6 slices of stale white bread, crusts removed soaked in water and
squeezed out
a good shake of dried mixed herbs (or herbs of your choice)

Mix with your hands until the bread is completely broken up and
distributed through the mix, you should not be able to see any lumps
of bread.

This mix will give you three dozen sausage rolls and will use up 4.5
sheets of pastry.

Lay a sheet of pastry out on a board large enough to hold it. Put
mixture all along the closest edge to yourself. You want to be able to
get two logs out of every sheet so don't overload or you will end up
using more than half a sheet of pastry. Roll over about a half turn
and then flatten the uppermost surface, this will be the inner
overlapped join under the roll. Roll over until this surface is
underneath and overlapped, make sure you have used some water, egg or
milk to wet the seam so it sticks. Cut the pastry along side the log
and repeat for a second log. Paint each roll with egg wash and cut
into halves and halves again, making 8 sausage rolls per sheet of
pastry.

Bake in a 220C oven for 20 - 25 minutes. I put them on baking paper.
The better spaced you have them the better they will cook on top and
sides without the bottom burning.

Serve with ketchup, bbq sauce or whatever takes your fancy.

Thi is my basic recipe and the favourite of my family, but I have made
many variations with a mixture of beef and pork. garlic, chili, fresh
herbs etc.
