Rec: Packet Cooking

Packet cooking is easy, which I think is the best sort of cooking. This is tastiest cooked over a grill, but it works beautifully in the oven as well. It's simple, low calorie and fast. This recipe serves four, but it can be halved for two, or quartered for one. I don't recommend making this for one, because it could just as easily be made for two or four, with the remaining servings frozen as is in the packet, then popped into the microwave for dinner on busy days. The best accompaniment to this is rice. A box rice is easiest, however, I'm posting a Spanish Rice recipe separately for those who are more ambitious. I've filched this recipe from The Change One Diet by the Reader's Digest people.

Snapper and Sugar Snap Peas in a Packet

3 cups sugar snap peas (fresh or frozen)
2 tablespoons lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
2 teaspoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
4 red snapper filets, 6 ounces each (or other delicate fish, such as flounder or sole)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, or prepare the grill.

Toss the sugar snap peas, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper together in a bowl.

Coat four 15-inch lengths of cooking parchment paper or aluminum foil with cooking spray. Place one filet on one-half of each paper then top with about 3/4 of the sugar snap peas. Fold the paper over the fish and peas and fold the edges all around to seal.

Put the packets on a baking sheet to go into the oven, or directly on the grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes.

Tired of Your Name? Try This Name Generator

Now that you have your Elf name, your Hobbit name, your Orc name, your stripper name and a host of other names, how about variations on your own name. This random name generator at the BabyNames site is a handy tool to find out who you might have been. After all, your name is quite a random and capricious event, as is occasionally made evident by parents who actually name their kids things like Ima Hogg. Well, if you're female you have an easy way out of that one in many cultures. It would be bad luck, though, if Ima ended up married to say a Mann or a Butler -- or worse. If I were Ima I probably would go by my middle name, even if it were, say, Gertrude. (In real life I don't have that option, since my parents didn't give me a middle name.)

Rec: Haggis, Tatties and Neeps

Sunday night is Burns Night so why not celebrate it like every good Scot with Haggis accompanied with Tatties and Neeps (mashed potatoes with a little nutmeg and Mashed Swede also known as turnip with a little ginger). In this recipe I have combined the two, sprinkled a little Scottish cheddar cheese over the top to make Orkney Clapshot but you can keep the two separate if you prefer.
(NOTE: The dictionary says that the Swedish turnip is actually the rutabaga. Plan accordingly.)


Haggis
1.2-1.5kg haggis (look for the best quality you can find, it is now found in many butchers and supermarkets around the world or order it in if you have to).


Tatties
600g mashing potato, peeled and roughly chopped
60ml milk
4 tbsp butter
a generous pinch of grated nutmeg
maldon salt


Neeps
600g Swede (turnip), peeled and roughly chopped
4 tbsp butter
3cm ginger, peeled and chopped or ground ginger
maldon salt and freshly ground black pepper


Orkney Clapshot
Tatties and Neeps
150g cheddar cheese, grated


To Serve
cooked kale, cabbage or spinach tossed in a little butter and season with a little salt and pepper
30ml whisky.



Haggis: Place the haggis in a large saucepan and cover it with cold water. Bring the water to a strong simmer then reduce the heat to a gentle steady simmer and cover the pan. Leave the haggis to cook for 40 minutes per 500g.


Tatties: Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover them with cold water, bring the water to the boil then reduce it to a strong simmer. Leave the potatoes to cook for 20-30 minutes until they are tender. Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pan. Return the pan to the low heat and dry the potatoes for a couple of minutes. Add the butter and milk to the pan and mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Add the nutmeg and a little salt to the potatoes and beat them to a smooth mash.


Neeps: Place the Swede (turnip) in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Place the pan over a high heat and bring the water to a boil, reduce the heat to a strong simmer and leave the Swede to cook for 20-30 minutes until they are tender. Drain Swede and return them to the pan. Place the saucepan over a low heat and cook the Swede to dry it out for a couple of minutes. Add the butter and ginger to the pan and cook them with the Swede for a minute. Mash the mixture with a fork or potato masher. Season the Neeps with a little salt and pepper and beat it until smooth.


Orkney Clapshot: Preheat a grill to high. Mix together "Tatties and Neeps" until they are well combined. Place the mixture in an oven proof container and cover it with the grated cheese. Place the container under the hot grill and cook it until golden brown. Serve



To Serve Haggis: Remove the haggis from the pan and cut it open with scissors or a knife. Serve the Haggis accompanied with Tatties and Neeps or Orkney Clapshot and your choice of greens. Drizzle a little of whisky over each serving of haggis (optional). Serve

Write & Email Santa Claus a Christmas Letter

This is it, you'ld better get those requests in and don't worry, he WILL answer. Don't forget to leave some cookies and milk or even a slice of pie. He doesn't mind diet cookies but soy milk gives him heartburn. So if you don't want reindeer poop in your stockings (or under the tree), I'ld go with the real thing.

The Thought For Today

"In the old days, it was not called the Holiday Season; the Christians called it "Christmas" and went to church; the Jews called it "Hanukkah" and went to synagogue; the atheists went to parties and drank. People passing each other on the street would say "Merry Christmas!" or "Happy Hanukkah!" or (to the atheists) "Look out for the wall!"" - Dave Barry

The prices aren't bad and they should make great gifts.

There are only a few blogs I follow (who has time?!), but one of my favorites of the few is that of YA writer Meg Cabot, she of The Princess Diaries. I know, you're saying, Princess Diaries?

Not cheap. Reproduces the subtle wit employed by P. G. Wodehouse's most famous character--the valet Reginald Jeeves politely affirms the beginning of the day. 126 different wake-up messages in the reserved voice of Stephen Fry When the alarm sounds, Jeeves speaks softly as he assuages your displeasure that the morning has indeed come: "Excuse me sir, I'm so sorry to disturb you, but it appears to be morning... Very inconvenient, I agree... I believe it is the rotation of the Earth that is to blame" or greets you with "Good morning, sir... I feel sure you have slept soundly, feel thoroughly refreshed, and await the day with the anticipation of an energetic gazelle. If you are not roused sufficiently, a series of beeps will ensue A press of the rosette at bed time initiates a three-minute relaxation message with ambient music. Made of wood and handpainted in a subdued lacquer. A button on the back illuminates the clock's face.
