Canadian Barbecue Sauce

"This flavourful barbecue sauce for ribs is just like the kind they serve at a famous restaurant in Montreal, Quebec, that has people lining up on the street any given night of the week. Don't' skip the lemon juice or cinnamon. Simmer the leftover sauce until sugar is completely dissolved and serve on the side for those who like their ribs dripping with flavour."

Danny's Scrambled Egg

Recipe by: BigBadDan

Be the first to review it!

It is important that seasonings are added at the last minute. The butter used is unmeasured because you can add more or less butter depending on taste. The trick to the perfect scrambled egg is not to over-cook. Scrambled egg should be slightly runny, not solid.

Here, the soft interiors of large crusty bread rolls are hollowed out to provide a crisp casing for a gently spiced mix of tuna, sweetcorn and red kidney beans, and then warmed in the oven. For a light lunch that is satisfying and well-balanced, serve with a mixed tomato and leaf salad.

Laseyona

Recipe by: Andi

Be the first to review it!

Passed down from my mum from a friend of my dad's, the late Mark Lasey. They went round for a dinner after the pub one night and all he had was mushrooms, onions, minced beef, baked beans and pasta that could have gone together as a dish. The dish was a success and we have now perfected it as a favourite family dish and have named it Laseyona after my dad's dear friend.

Salmon and tomato chowder

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

A chowder is a classic American meal-in-a-bowl soup. The name is derived from the French word chaudière, meaning ‘stew-pot’. This delicious chowder is flavoured with lean bacon, leeks and tomatoes and thickened with potatoes, all of which provide the perfect background for tender flakes of salmon. Try it with sourdough bread.

The texture of this irresistible teabread is a mixture of crumbly ginger-spiced cake and a sticky, sweet prune purée that is rippled through it. The teabread keeps well – in fact, it improves after being stored for a day or two – and is a good choice for an energy-giving lunchbox sweet.
