Korean Style Marinated KFC

Korean Marinated KFC. It’s a little bit of prep work, but well worth the effort. This style of doing chicken alfresco on a char grill first requires a 24 hour soak in a favourable lemongrass fivespice, cilantro and coconut milk brine. Just add the ingredients, stir together and add some chili’s if you like it piquant! Some prefer using butter milk and kiwi fruit, some like yogurt and  mango. I like the tasty finish that fresh coconut milk and lemongrass bring to the flavour table! After the chicken parts marinate over night, remove as much of the marinade as...

When there are 10 mouths to feed at the cottage, it’s great that the simple ingredients like flour and sugar, a few spices, butter and eggs were the foundations to so many home comfort recipes. Don’t even look at these...

Salisbury Steak Meatball Crown

Roast Garlic Mashed Potato w/ Salisbury Steak Meatballs Crown. Every time that I would make this recipe at Turtle Jacks it would be an item that would sell out when it was seen being eaten by the restaurant other guests.

In a bowl add the beef, breadcrumbs, a beaten egg, good Tbs. of mustard, ketchup and worcestershire sauce chopped parsley and green onion. Roll into 1½ inch meatballs. Heat oil medium high in a large skillet. Do not over crowd the...
