Title: Unusual Recipies
Post by: robbie on August 01, 2006, 02:10:21 pm

The way I cook a duck is to stuff it with an open can of Cherry Coke half full, and bake it in the oven for 2 hours.  The Cherry Coke evaporates and gives the duck a really rich and moist taste.


I do the same with chicken, but use a can of beer instead.


When I steam fish, I use a mixture of water and lime cordial, that especially works well for salmon.

I would have thought the can would leave a nasty metallic taste.

Plus it must be a bugger to take out afterwards.

The can does get red hot, do you can't touch it.


The cans can be quite tricky to insert, but you dont actually stuff it.  You stand the opened can upright and insert the bird over it and cook it standing up.  It is really easy to remove, the bird just slides off.

I dont make curry, but the curries i like are the mild, creamy ones.  I love Malaya, Korma, Passanda, Kashmiri etc.  Love banana in curry too.


Not keen on Rogan Josh, Jalfrezi, Madras, Phal, Vindaloo etc.

I'm the same - Korma is my fave. I hate Vindaloo.

I had what was called chicken mustang on holiday in Spain. It was, essentially a cream, almonds and mango sauce. Not at all spicey but fruity/creamy. It went really well with the rice with bits of minced lamb in it.


So good I visited twice on holiday!

No as I think it had one or 2 flavours in it that I didn't ask about.


Bloody lovely it was too!
