Baked Eggplant Stuffed with Ham and Shrimp

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-02 Feb 2008

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 medium size eggplants
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 cup chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup chopped green sweet bell pepper
4 garlic cloves -- crushed
1 teaspoon whole thyme
2 bay leaves -- crushed
1/4 pound cured ham -- diced
[buy a slice of good ham from your butcher,
not the bland, boiled stuff]
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco -- or more to taste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
2 eggs -- beaten
1 cup bread crumbs
1 pound shrimp -- peeled and
cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1/2 pound crab meat
Grated Parmesan or Romano cheese for garnish

Cut off the stems of the eggplants and cut them in half, lengthwise. Boil
in salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove and drain. Scoop out
most of the center of each and coarsely chop the scrapings. Set aside.

In the oil, saute the yellow and green onions, parsley, green pepper,
garlic, thyme, bay leaves, ham, salt, pepper, Tabasco, Worcestershire and
eggplant scrapings. Simmer gently for 1/2 hour. Take off the burner and
stir in the eggs and then the bread crumbs. In a separate pan, saute the
shrimp in 2 tablespoon butter for 2 minutes or until it changes color. Add
to the eggplant mixture along with the crab meat.

Divide the mixture among the eggplant boats and sprinkle with cheese. Place
on a greased baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F. for 30-40 minutes or
until the top is browned.

Bobotie with Yellow Rice

Recipe By :
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-02 Feb 2008

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
For the yellow rice:
2 cups rice
3/4 cups raisins -- soaked in water
for 20 minutes then drained
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 dash salt
2 cinnamon sticks
For the bobotie you will need:
1 kilogram minced lamb -- (about 2 pounds)
125 milliliters milk -- (1/2 cup)
1 slice white bread -- (thick slice)
crust removed and soaked in milk
2 onions -- roughly chopped
Butter
Salt
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 chilli -- finely chopped
[optional & only if you like your food quite hot]
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon chutney
8 almonds -- crushed (optional)
[8 to 10]
3 eggs
1 garlic clove -- crushed
and finely chopped
6 bay leaves
1 orange -- sliced in wheels
1 lemon -- sliced in wheels
Oil for cooking

For the yellow rice:
Place all the ingredients, including the raisins in about 750 ml (3 cups)
water, bring to the boil and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. If there is still
excess water in the pot when the rice is tender, pour it out carefully. Dot
the rice with a few blobs of butter and give it a sprinkling of cinnamon
sugar. Cover and keep warm.

For the bobotie:
Heat the oil in a frying pan; add the garlic, onion and curry powder. Cook
over medium heat for three minutes, then add the minced meat. Fry until the
meat is almost done then, using your hands, squeeze the milk from the
bread. Discard the milk and add the bread, vinegar, lemon juice, sugar and
chutney to the mince. Fry for a minute or so and then remove from heat.

Take a pie dish and place three bay leaves, two wheels of orange and two
wheels of lemon at the bottom. Now scoop the mince mixture into the dish.
Decorate the sides of the dish with the rest of the lemon and orange
wheels, wedging them between the mince and the sides of the dish so that
only a third protrudes. If you like using almonds, push them into the
mince.

Beat the eggs and 125 ml (1/2 cup) milk; pour over the meat. Put three bay
leaves on top of the milk mixture. Place the dish uncovered in the oven and
cook for 30 minutes at 160C (325F).

Serve with a plain green salad or chopped tomato, fresh chile and onion,
sprinkle with a little vinegar.

Serve bobotie hot with the yellow rice.
