Chicken, Olive and Lemon Tangine

Posted: 10 Aug 2013 07:24 AM PDT

This is another find from the Weekly Times, a paper I love, and also another wonderful recipe from Jeremy Vincent. I am noting some of Jeremy's suggestions and Tips as written-- If you haven't got a tagine, a saucepan or lidded casserole will suffice. The recipe method below utilises a saucepan or casserole for the cooking. If you are using a tagine, prepare the chicken to the browned stage in the saucepan, remove it from the saucepan and cook the onion and spice as below. Instead of returning the ingredients back to the saucepan with the stock, arrange (optional) sliced potato on the base of your tagine, then the chicken around the centre on top of the potato slices. Pour the onion and spiced stock over the chicken, scatter with the olives and dot with the butter and pieces of lemon before topping with the tagine lid and baking. Save the coriander and parsley for scattering on top when the dish is cooked. TIPS WITH A TAGINE The tagine doubles as both a cooking vessel and serving dish which holds the food warm. Since you won't be stirring during the cooking, take care how you arrange or layer ingredients for a beautiful table presentation. Oil is essential to tagine cooking; don't be overly cautious in using it or you'll end up with watery sauce or possibly scorched ingredients. In most recipes for 4 to 6 people, you'll need between a 1/4 to a 1/3 cup of oil (sometimes part butter), which will mix with cooking liquids to make ample sauce for scooping up with bread. Choose olive oil for the best flavour. Try not to interrupt the cooking by frequently lifting the lid to check on the food; that's best left for adding ingredients or to check on the level of liquids toward the end of cooking. -- posted by Tisme

Lemongrass Chicken Pad Thai

Posted: 10 Aug 2013 09:33 AM PDT

I'm not sure how this recipe found me. It arrived in my inbox last week. It's a Ming Tsai recipe which states: Everyone loves chicken pad thai, Thailand's deliciously spicy noodle dish. The noodles used are rice sticks, which, besides being delightfully chewy, are gluten-free (for those allergic to it) and "cooked" simply by soaking. My version is easier to make than many others — I've eliminated the traditional tamarind, which is hard to find and fussy to prepare — but nothing is lost in the flavor department, I promise. I include the traditional scrambled eggs, but you can omit them, if you like. You'll still have a wonderfully satisfying dish. **I did some looking around because I wanted to add the tamarind back in! I have a jar of tamarind concentrate that I found at a Middle Eastern store,** -- posted by Elmotoo
