Yes, I took a few pics. I have to get them on the computer before I can really see them. That little screen just doesn't cut it.

wow all these posts.. I just arrived and thought I'd check up on what I'd missed..(6 pages of it) now that I've caught up nearly everyone has gone again!!! Hello Rola & Rena.

Have to duck off for a bit, might make it back later

hello Meg. How is your afternoon.
Kingaroy isn't that where Joh B. came from . Peanut country !!

looking forward to seeing them on your page Rena, the sunset that is. !!

Now that I have somewhere to show them, they might get out of the camera faster.

The hour is late and I am tired. Off to bed with me. Goodnight.

CHICKEN AND TOMATO RISOTTO

Approx 500grams Chicken Thigh Fillets ( I use Breast Fillets)
2 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, finely diced
1 x 440g can peeled tomatoes ( I use can of chopped tomatoes)
2 teaspoon salt
Pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons fresh oregano or marjoram, or ½ teaspoon dried oregano
2 ½ cups water
¾ cup long grain rice.

Cut each chicken fillet into 4 pieces ( I dice the chicken into small pieces)
Heat oil in a medium sized saucepan, add onion and stir over heat until soft and golden.
Add Chicken and stir over heat until brown on all sides. Chop the tomatoes, add to the chicken with the juice from the can. Add Salt, Pepper, Sugar and Herbs. Stir well than pour in the water. When liquid boils stir in the rice, turn down heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
When rice is just tender turn off heat, place a folded tea towel under the lid and allow to stand 10 minutes. The rice will become tender and moist. Fluff up with a fork, toss in a knob of butter if desired. Serve hot with green vegetables or a salad.
Serves 4-5

the Lemon Delicous Pudding and the Chicken and Tomato Risotto Recipes are on my page. Remember to have the recipe ticked in order to see them....

Just passing through, thought I would drop of some poffertjes for all to enjoy why I go and get my Sudoku fix. I'll be back in a tick.

hey vdV, poffertjes heh, yummy, does that mean you are dutch.!!!
just looking at the vdV dpes that stand for van der V???

dpes = does !!!!!!

Rola, my father is dutch and yes your guess of vdV is correct

poffertjes are one of my specialities, when ever family come over I HAVE to cook them, else there will be a mutiny .

vdV, both my mum and dad are from Holland. I was having an email discussion with Mary/Bibra Lake last week, and poffertjes were mentioned. She wanted to know if I knew how to make them... I don't by the way.

Recipe please, cousin vdV

Rola, just my dad, mum is second/third generation Aussie. Poffertjes are easy to make, just pancake mixture, but you need a special pan to cook them in.

what sort of pan vdV...

I am a first generation Australian, born in Perth..

Recipe???
have to guess as I just ckuck the stuff in until it looks right.
Best guess,
2 cups SR flour
1 cup plain flour
3 eggs
teaspoon salt
stirr in milk until it looks the right consistancy (3 cups???)

put into a squeeze bottle
cook in poffertjes pan (flip half way through)

serve with jam and cream

Have a look here for a picture of the pan

at the bottom.
This is not me, just found on a web search

Rola, can you speek dutch, counting is about all I can do?

If I hurry to post I could be sent to the CP corner

Do I make it to the corner?

Didn't need to rush, my first time in the CP corner

yep you are a CP vdV... looking up the site for the pan now

no I dont have one of those pans.... okay mum is here I'll ask her if she has one.

no she does not have one. never had one

vdV - your conversation about van de V, with Rola, reminds me of the TV series Van de Val, years ago. He was a detective in Amsterdam. The actor Barrie **** (can't remember names) had masses of blond curls and I thought he was dreamy.

Forgot to mention in the recipe, when you serve them sprinkle icing sugar all over them.

What happened to my signature - try again

but I do have a baking tray that looks a bit like that, Mum thinks I could make it in that..

I remember watching that show here in Perth. I like the tune, very dutch

the last comment for GrannieMo. How are you and Steve.

Blond hair brown eyes, sound almost as dashing as me . OK perhaps if I lost a little wieght.

The golf club I frequent has Dutch owners and world renown executive chef, Albert Kooy.
My favourite snacks are 'Bitter ballen' and 'fricandelle', please excuse spelling.

We are very well, Rola. Hope the same goes for yourself and Pete.
