Smoked Salmon Terrine

I made this and brought to a friends house for a Christmas get together.  Unfortunately I didn't realize she didn't eat fish :)  While my husband, myself and another friend enjoyed this wonderful hors d'ouevre she nearly gagged!  Ahhh well I tried.  I really liked the way this came out.  Make sure your salmon is sliced thinly and of good quality.  It makes all the difference.  Serve with the Potato Chips recipe preceding this or a good quality cracker.  The original recipe from Food and Drink 2000 called for cooked spinach but I elected for raw baby spinach instead.

500g Cream cheese
2 tbsp chopped dill
1/2 cup chopped green onions
Salt to taste
1 tsp cracked black pepper
1/2 cup chopped baby spinach
2 tsp lemon juice
500 g smoked salmon, thinly sliced

GARNISH:
Watercress leaves
Dill sprigs


  1. Combine cream cheese, dill, green onions, salt and pepper.  Remove one third of mixture and combine with spinach.  Season spinach mixture with lemon juice.
  2. Place plastic wrap in loaf pan coming up over the sides.  Divide salmon into 4 portions.  Place a single layer of smoked salmon on base of loaf pan.  Top with half of cream cheese mixture, a second layer of salmon, all of spinach mixture, a third layer of salmon, the remaining cream cheese and finish with the remaining salmon.
  3. Cover with plastic wrap and place a weight on top.  Refrigerate overnight or until ready to serve.  Turn out, remove plastic wrap and garnish with watercress and dill.
  4. Slice gently with a serrated knife.  Cut slices into smaller pieces and serve on top of potato chips or alongside crackers.

Mini Phyllo Tarts

These are absolutely delightful!  From Food and Drink 2000.  The tarts are simple and shouldn't be assembled until just before serving or they will soften.  Use the Lemon Cheese filling provided or fill with your favourite.

8 sheets phyllo pastry (about 1/2 box)
2 tbsp each of melted butter and vegetable oil, mixed
2 tbsp granulated sugar


  1. Preheat oven to 350F.  Brush one phyllo sheet generously with butter and oil mixture.  Sprinkle with several pinches of sugar.  Stacking on top of each other, repeat with three more sheets.  Cut layered phyllo into 3 inch squares.  Keeping layers intact, push phyllo squares to bottom of ungreased mini muffin cups with a bottom diameter of 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches.  Curve top edges slightly outward from cups.  Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and crisp.
  2. Remove from cups and cool on a rack.  Continue filling muffin cups and baking as needed to use up all the squares.  Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets.  Store in a single layer in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Makes 40 shells

LEMON CHEESE FILLING

3 to 4 large lemons
3 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
250g cream cheese

  1. Using a zester or fine grater, grate zest of 1 lemon onto a piece of waxed paper.  Squeeze 3/4 cup lemon juice.  In a medium saucepan, whisk eggs with sugar, lemon juice and zest until combined.  Whisk over low heat until mixture is warm, and then add butter.  Continue whisking constantly until mixture thickens and colour lightens slightly, from 15 to 18 minutes.  Do not boil.  Pour into a bowl, press a piece of plastic wrap directly on surface and refrigerate for a week or more.
  2. To make tart filling, stir softened cream cheese until smooth and lump free.  Gradually stir in lemon curd until blended.  Spoon into tart shells and garnish with a few thin threads of lemon zest.

Spiced Beef and Mushroom Pie

A wonderful comfort meal.  Chunks of carrots and zucchini may be added for the last half hour of cooking the meat, if desired.  From Food and Drink 2000.

15 g dried porcini mushrooms You can use sauteed mushrooms if you can't find these - just skip the soaking and use vegetable stock for the mushroom liquid
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tbsp paprika
Pinch cayenne
Salt and freshly ground pepper
500 g stewing beef, cut in 1 inch pieces
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped

300 g button mushrooms
1/2 No Fail Pastry crust (see following)

  1. Cover porcini mushroom with 1 cup boiling water.  Let sit for 20 minutes or until mushrooms are softened.  Strain, reserving mushrooms and liquid separately.
  2. Preheat oven to 325 F.
  3. Combine thyme, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper.  Toss meat with half of mixture, reserving remainder.  Heat oil in heavy skillet on high heat.  Add meat in batches, do not crowd pan, and brown on all sides.  Remove and continue until all meat is browned, adding more oil if needed.
  4. Reduce heat to medium and add onion and garlic.  Saute until onions are softened, about 2 minutes.  Stir in remaining spice mixture, rosemary and flour.  Cook until flour colours to pale gold.  Pour in wine, bring to boil, stirring, add stock and mushroom soaking liquid.  Bring to boil, reduce heat to low and return meat.  Place in ovenproof casserole or Dutch oven, cover and cook until meat is just tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  5. Heat butter in skillet on medium high heat.  Add button and reserved porcini mushrooms and saute for 3 minutes or until softened.  Season well with salt and pepper.  Mix with meat.
  6. Place mixture in a 4 cup deep dish pie plate or ovenproof baking dish.  Roll out pastry 1 1/2 inches larger than dish.  Cut 1 inch wide strips from edges of pastry.  Brush edge of dish with water and lay strips on it.  Brush with egg.  Lay pastry on top sealing edges.  Cut a steam hole, decorate with any extra pastry and brush the top with egg.  Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until pastry is golden and filling is hot.
 NO FAIL PASTRY FOR SAVOURY TARTS
3 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut in 8 pieces
1/2 cup vegetable shortening, cut in 8 pieces
1/3 cup cold water
2 tbsp white vinegar

  1. In a bowl, combine flour and salt.  With a pastry blender or fingers, cut in butter and vegetable shortening until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  2. Combine water and vinegar and sprinkle over flour mixture a little at a time tossing together with a fork until the pastry is moist enough to hold its shape when a little piece is pressed between the fingers.
  3. Gather pastry into a ball: it should not feel sticky
  4. Flour the counter or pastry board lightly.  With a floured rolling pin, roll the pastry out into a rectangle approximately 8 x 12 inches fold the pastry into thirds like a letter.  Turn the dough so the open edges face you and roll out into a rectangle again.   Repeat this procedure again.  Cover dough with plastic wrap and chill one hour.
  5. For smaller pies, use half the dough, larger ones need two thirds or all of it.  Freeze any remaining dough for another occasion.  Dough should be rolled 1/4 inch thick.
PASTRY TIPS
  • When making pastry in a food processor, make sure butter and shortening are cold before adding.  Never let pastry form a ball in processor - it would be over worked and tough.
  • If you have trouble rolling pastry out, try rolling between two sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper.  
  • If desired, add other flavouring into the pastry such as herbs, grated cheese, crumbled bacon, lemon or orange rind.
  • Turn dough into a sweet pastry by adding 1 tbsp sugar to the original recipe.

Ginger Peach Glazed Pork Medallions with Zesty Grilled Corn

A great change of flavour for the grill.  I actually prefer grilled corn to boiled.

3 pork tenderloins, about 375g each
1 tsp salt and pepper (I exclude the salt)
1 cup melted peach jam
3/4 cup HP sauce
1 tbsp each minced fresh ginger and balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Chopped fresh coriander

Zesty Grilled Corn
1/2 cup each melted butter, HP sauce and finely chopped basil
1 tbsp hot sauce
1 tsp each salt and pepper (I exclude the salt)
12 cobs corn, husked and blanched for 10 minutes


  1. Cut the pork tenderloins into 2 inch medallions (It is very important to have a consistent size).  Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper, reserve.  Stir the peach jam with the HP sauce, ginger, balsamic vinegar, garlic and cumin until smooth.  Pour one third of the peach mixture over the pork.  Marinage for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium.  Remove the pork from the marinade.  Discard the used marinade.  Grease the grate and add the medallions.  Grill for 5 minutes.  Turn the pork and baste liberally with the reserved peach mixture.  Grill, basting often, for an additional 8 to 10 minutes or until the pork is cooked to desired doneness.  Baste with any remaining peach mixture before removing from the grill.  Arrange on a platter and garnish with chopped coriander.
  3. Zesty Grilled Corn: Meanwhile, blend the butter with the HP Sauce, basil, hot sauce, salt and pepper until combined.  Arrange the corn on the grill and cook, turning and brushing often with the butter mixture, for 5 minutes or until browned and tender.  Add to the platter with the pork.  Makes 6 servings.
