28 Sep 2016 Danish Meatloaf

This is the meatloaf recipe everyone liked better than I did.  I still favor my Grandma Anderson's recipe but since the family liked it, here it is.

In a small bowl, combine to soak
1/2 c milk
1 egg
1 c toasted bread, cubed or 1/2 c dried bread crumbs
Let stand 5 minutes.

In hot skillet, sauté
1/2  medium onion, diced
1 T butter
Remove from heat, add
1 t fresh chopped parsley or 1/2 t dried
Allow to cool.

Mix together:
1 lb ground beef
1 T ketchup
1/2 t salt
1/4 t black pepper
1/4 t paprika
1 clove garlic, minced or generous sprinkle of garlic powder 
1/4 t thyme
1/2 t Worcestershire sauce
Add in cooled onion & parsley mix
combine well then add in the milk-crumb mixture

Shape meat into a loaf or into a loaf pan
Bake at 350ºF for 1 hour

Turns out if you want, you can shape them into patties and fry in butter until cooked through and have single serving meatloaf burgers instead of one big loaf.

05-09 Mother's Day Eggs

"Eggs a la Goldenrod" is a Cooper recipe. Grandma says she has eaten it at a restaurant. This has become our Mother's day breakfast tradition served with fresh fruit (I like the grapes and strawberries), sometimes crispy bacon, fried apples and orange juice. Guess that is what you kids always thought was the perfect breakfast =) I have always liked it! Prepare 6-8 hard boiled eggs (It makes about as many servings as eggs used) Separate the yolks from the whites. Chop the whites Crumble the yolks To make sauce, melt over medium heat: 6 T unsalted butter Then whisk in 6 T flour Add in slowly, whisking constantly 3 c milk (don't use nonfat) Sprinkle with salt and pepper When thickened and bubbly, stir in whites and remove from heat. Serve this sauce over a piece of toast Sprinkle on 1/6 of the egg yolks and paprika Viola!

Nordic curry

This is a mild anytime curry.  Takes 10-15 minutes. The original (dairy) sauce is from Magnus Nilsson. I double the sauce so there's plenty. Especially because I like to add vegetables and proteins. I always add the apples, sometimes skip the onion. Leftover roasted root vegetables tasted great. Regular supermarket yellow curry powder is perfect. Serve it over rice or with naan. Be generous with the salt and pepper.  Melt 4 T butter over medium heat in a sauté pan (wide, shallow).  Sprinkle in 4 T yellow curry powder and stir to combine.  Add 1-2 tart apple (Granny Smith), cored and chopped or cubed & 1 onion, finely chopped. When apples and onion are softened, sprinkle them with 2 T flour .

When smooth, add in 1 1/2 c milk OR coconut milk in the same manner. Allow to begin to bubble and thicken before serving. Season gen...
