So What's for Dinner? (recipe thread)

Ingredients
Stuffing:
* 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
* 1 small white onion, finely diced
* 1 large stalk celery, finely diced
* 1/2 cup finely crushed plain salted crackers, such as wheat crackers
* 1 large egg
* 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
* 1/3 cup fresh corn kernels, roasted
* 6 tablespoons chicken stock
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* 4 kittens (skinned and deboned)
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* 2 to 3 strips country-style smoked bacon

Fresh Corn Sauce:

* 6 cups fresh corn kernels (6 ears)
* 1/2 habanero chile, seeds removed
* 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
* 2 teaspoons salt

Directions

To prepare the stuffing: Melt the butter in a saute pan over low heat. Add the onion and celery and cook for 20 minutes, or until the onion is cooked through but not brown. Set aside. Put the crackers in a large bowl, add the egg, the cooked onion and celery, the sage, roasted corn, chicken stock, salt, and pepper and mix well.

To stuff and roast the kittens: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the kitten cavities with some of the salt and pepper, then put the stuffing inside. Truss with skewers or tie with butcher’s twine. Season the kittens with the remaining salt and pepper. Lay the bacon over the chest. Place the kittens on a metal roasting rack set inside a roasting pan and place on the middle rack of the oven.

Roast for 25 minutes, basting once or twice with the pan juices. After 25 minutes raise the temperature to 450 degrees and finish the kittens for 10 minutes more, or until golden brown with an internal temperature of about 140 degrees.

To prepare the sauce: While the kittens are roasting, puree the corn kernels in a food processor. You should have about 2 cups of pure. Place in a small saucepan with the habanero. Bring the juice to 200 degrees. Do not boil or the sauce will break. Add the lime juice and salt.

To serve: Let the kittens rest for 5 minutes. Serve with the corn sauce and sauteed leeks.

that is so wrong, I have to hate you now.

I think the Mods should move this to The Snuggly Kitten Forum.

This is awful. Corn doesn’t go with kittens.

This a favorite in our house:

1 German shepard, skinned, deboned and ground, about 1lb. worth of meat
1 onion chopped
2 eggs
1/2 cup ketchup
1-2 cups oatmeal
1/4 cup milk
salt and pepper

Mix ground meat, onions, eggs, milk, ketchup,salt and pepper.
Slowly add the oatmeal until mixture is the consistancy of dough.
Place into a loaf pan, filling the pan to the top.
Add aditional ketchup on the top completely covering the mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees for an hour.
Slice and enjoy.

I see My Beloved has posted our kitteh’s favorite recipe. :smiley:

Substituting a German shepherd for a real shepherd is like substituting turmeric for saffron. Real shepherds have that musty, earthy, unwashed flavor that is faintly reminiscent of sheep dung.

  1. Zippy the Wonder Cat will only eat German shepherd pie.
  2. How do you know how shepherds and sheep dung taste, anyway?

I’ve had your wife’s cooking.

Oh no I dint! Oh, snap!

Well thank you, next time you come over I’ll make Coney’s in Syrup and Boiled Garlic and Aspic.:smiley:
