Tongue Ticklers

Postby Chris C » Sun Nov 06, 2005 11:10 am

Okay, I bragged about the meals we cooked in our new cast iron this past weekend in the great out-of-doors, so here are a couple of the recipes:

Fran's Enchilada Casserole (family recipe)

1 to 1/12 lbs. ground beef 1 can chopped & drained green chilies
1 choped med. onion 1 can cream of chicken soup
1 lb grated cheddar cheese 1 pkg corn torillas
1 can stewed tomatoes
(or Rotel tomatoes with chilies)


Fry ground beef and drain wel. Mix together onion, tomatoes, cream of chicken soup and chopped green chilies. Starting with tortillas, alternate layers of meat, cheese, soup mixture and torillas in cassarole dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
(Note: We have an 8" dutch oven, so we cut these ingredients by a third, and it was still too much food for two people!)


Beef Stroganoff (from Joy of Cooking)

Cut into 1/2 inch slices across the grain: 1 1/2 lbs. fillet of beef.
Pound them until thin. Cut into strips about 1 inch wide. Melt in a pan: 1 tablespoon butter. Saute in the butter about 2 minutes: 3/4 tablespoon grated onion. Saute beef quickly in the butter about 5 minutes, until browned evenly. Remove and keep hot. Add to the pan: 2 tablespoons butter. Stir and saute in the butter: 3/4 lb. sliced mushrooms. Drain and add the beef. Season with: Salt and pepper. A grating of nutmeg. (or 1/2 teaspoon basil) Add and heat briefly: 1/4 cup dry white wine. Then add: 1 cup warm whipping cream or cultured sourcream. Serve with: Green Noodles.

The Stroganoff is best cooked in a cast iron skillet if using a propane stove.

These are both really good recipes and will draw a crowd. We both ate until we were miserable and still had food left over.

Enjoy!

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.
