i spent all day in the kitchen a couple of days ago making tiropitikia(greek name for it), basically they are cheese triangle/pastry things... VERY fiddly cos of the filo pastry but SOOOOOO completely delicious

----

150g feta cheese
60g tasty cheese
1 egg, beaten
440g thawed filo pastry
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

Crumble feta cheese in small bowl; mash with fork. add grated tasty cheese. Stir in eggs until well mixed. Cut filo leaves lengthwise into 3 strips. Cover with wax paper, then with damp towel to prevent drying.

Using 2 layers filo at a time, place 1 heaping teaspoon filling on end of 1 strip; fold end over from one side to the other (to form a triangle) to opposite end. Place on greased cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining filling. Puffs can be covered and refrigerated no longer than 24 hours at this point.

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.

Brush puffs with margarine. Bake until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Makes about 36 triangles.

Now guys the other day i was watchin tv and got the best recepie ever!

LIQUID KEBABS

First u take one lamb kebab (any meat is fine but lamb in this case)
place the kebab in a blender, making sure that the lamb, lettuce etc is evenly mixed around.
put the blender on high for a couple of seconds to mix things up a little then add 1 cup of water.
put blender on high again for approx 10 seconds or so
now add 1/2 can of beer, preferably VB, blend for 1 minute adding more beer to gain desired consistancy.
Now pour into large milkshake glasses and serve.

trust me this is the ideal recepie for those on the move, at the beginning of the week mix up several glasses worth and keep in the fridge. Then when ur late for work and havent had breakie yet or want lunch on the run, simply pop in the microwave for 1 min and bobs ur uncle!

Nachos:

Here's the recipe I learnt in food tech back in year 8 or 7, and I've used it as gospel ever since. As a guy, and as someone who burnt soup in this said food-tech class, I can say that this is nice and easy, & it tastes nice when you find your taste :)

ULTRA-BASIC MICROWAVE YEAR 8 FOOD-TECH NACHOS:

Ingredients -

1pkt of whatever ham, cut into little squares about 1cm3 (whatever that is in maths terms. I forget) (or beans, so the base may be)
1.5 tins of tomato puree
2 diced tomatoes
2teaspns onion flakes
2teaspns basil
0.5teaspns paprika ground/chili ground/spicey whatever

(Italics can be varied/spices changed completely to taste)
1bag of original CCs or Doritos or oter Corn Chips
Mozarella Cheese

Method -

1. Chop all the stuff up so it can be mixed etc
2. Put puree, spices, ham/beans, tomatoes into microwave safe bowl and mix till all mixed through.
3. Microwave for 3mins on high
4. While that's nuking, arange the cornchips onto a large nuke-safe plate, evenly.
5. Take the sauce stuff out, spread evenly over the cornchips, then cover with desired amount of cheese.
6. Cover with cling wrap, but not sealed, then microwave for 2 - 3min on high
7. Et voil. Careful, the plates bloody hot, and I lost marks in the assessment thingy for not having gloves on when I took it out.

Serves: Whoever's hungry

All the stuff can be varied - this is obviously just a blueprint for variation, but I've never varied it!

i like this thread!!!

--pancakes---!!! (i am the queen of breakfast foods i tell yas!!)

you need:
- 2 cups self raising flour
- 2/3 cup milk
- 6 eggs
- coupla tablespoons of honey (more if u like sweet food, less if u don't)
- a bit of butter
- whipped cream, fresh fruit

really easy! sift flour, add milk and egg yolks, stir. Spoon into frypan that's been greased with a bit of butter - make sure it's low heat cuz otherwise they burn. when you start to see bubbles, turn over and cook on other side. (should only take a minute or two). Makes about 4 regular~large sized pancakes. Load em up with heapsa fruit (buy canned blueberries from the supermarket!!) and whipped cream... yum... =)


edit:... see post below for modifications

wait wait! i went to sleep last night and i remembered that i forgot to add something...
when you separate the egg yolks from the whites; you dont chuck the whites away, you whisk em up so they're all stiff then fold them gently in jus b4 frying.. it makes it all softer... ^^ at least i remembered tho =) haha..
