May 17, 2009: 'Tuna' Patties Too Tropical 'Slaw

the cheesy tuna bake that wasn't. However, equally the baking dish filled upwards amongst ingredients, I was really happy to reserve the 2d one-half of the bundle for around other recipe: Kristy's 'tuna' patties. She made these, to groovy acclaim, for a potluck that I was unable to attend as well as I was keen to gustation them for myself. I made a duo of substitutions - using chopped jump onions, mint as well as a lilliputian grated carrot for the vegetable component, as well as seasoning my white sauce amongst solely the chicken-style stock powder. Though the white sauce was a lilliputian pasty inwards texture, I loved its flavour! I volition accept to notice other ways to brand purpose of it.

I institute the patty mixture besides moist to roll, exactly, but somehow I managed to instruct those globs into the breadcrumbs (rice crumbs, actually!) as well as so a hot, oily frypan. Though a lilliputian fragile, these patties were a groovy success inwards this kitchen too, earning high praise from Michael.

The patties' salady side is around other blog-sourced recipe that features an unusal ingredient: coconut oil. I previously baked a couple of biscuit recipes that suggested its use, though I resorted to option fats. I'll hold upwards interested to brand them in i trial to a greater extent than amongst the recommended kokosnoot oil. It lends a fantastic gustation as well as texture to the dressing of this 'slaw (which I institute at a few great 'slaw recipes nether my belt, I'm a lot to a greater extent than enthusiastic. The solely affair that could amend this i is the purpose of around spunky cherry-red cabbage, equally suggested inwards the master recipe.
