What I think it is apple jelly flavored with mint extract and green food
coloring. Can I do it? Doubtful - as I have neither apple jelly, mint
extract OR green food coloring in my pantry.

<grin>

I think my Mom's was store-bought. But my Grandpa died when I was young and
she never made rack of lamb again. My Dad REALLY despises lamb.

It is a fruit jelly made with tart apples and mint leaves.

The one that is sold in the store has a bright green color because food
coloring is added.

An example:

There was a lovely recipe here the other day for cooking onions in the slow
cooker.

Would these be similar onions but dried?

Is it??? Well I suppose all websites are written in something similar.

Does anyone know why that would be unreadable for Pandora?

Thank you very much, Pandora. I can do that ;-)
I did not know the word "toma cheese."

It is quite good if you enjoy fruit with roasted meats. The tart bite of
the mint and sweet of the apples compliments the strong taste of the lamb
nicely.

> I woukd like a sure recipe: a recipe you have tried. Can ask you?


Recipe? For a roasted rack of lamb? Last time I cooked it I followed the
very standard recipe for roasting meats from a betty crocker cookbook circa
1950 - the dogeared, heavily-stained copy that once belonged to my Great
Aunt Lou. It wasn't anything fancy - I think the only thing I might have
added was a heavy rub-down of the lamb with a couple of split raw garlic
cloves before I plunked it in the oven.

And I bought the neon-green mint jelly at the local supermarket.

<shrug>

I've never been a recipe cook anyway. Which sort of explains the wild-eyed
look I get whenever anybody asks for the recipe for something I cooked - I
usually have NO idea what exactly went into it. And couldn't duplicate it
again if someone held a gun to my head anyway.

Well, I make the traditional green bean casserole at Thanksgiving. My
grandmother made it. My mother made it. And now I make it. And I almost
always buy two containers of the noxious french's fried and dehydrated onion
rings - one for cooking and one for snacking-on when I'm watching the
traditional (american) football games on TV.

They go very good with beer.

But then again, salty, crunchy and greasy ALWAYS goes perfectly with beer.

My paternal granny loved tortelli di zucca, my paternal grandad loved fried
liver with onions.
About my maternal grandfathers, I only know my granny loved cherry pies.

I'm sure somebody has a real recipe for rack of lamb and will be more than
glad to give it to you. Unfortunately I'm not one of 'em...

Thanksgiving isn't until November... I don't touch the nasty things until
then.

But I always have plenty of beer(s). As good a beer(s) as I can affoard.

Uhhhh, no.

That would be 'Dole', IIRC.

Del Monte pretty much does everything that's grown on the mainland.

With sour cream on the side;

:-)

Dimitri

Golabki-Golubtsy
(Polish, Russian stuffed cabbage rolls)
Yield: 4-6 servings


INGREDIENTS PREP AMOUNT
Cabbage, greencore removed1 head

Oil or butter 2 Tbsp
Onion minced 1 each

Beef ground1/2 lb
Pork ground1/2 lb
Veal ground1/2 lb
Rice 1 cup
Egg beaten1 each
Thyme, fresh or dried1 Tbsp or 2 tsp
Salt & pepperto taste

Tomato sauce 2 cups
Stock or water 1 cup
Salt & pepper to taste

METHOD
Basic Steps: Blanch ? Mix ? Stuff ? Braise
Blanch the whole cabbage in boiling water, removing leaves carefully from the
outside as they wilt; you'll need about 10. Run the leaves under cold water.
Trim or pound the large vein on the back of each leaf to make it flush with the
surface of the leaf.
Sauté the onion in the oil or butter till translucent, but not browned.
In a large bowl, mix the onion together well with the meat, rice, egg and
seasonings.
Lay a cabbage leaf out, veined side down, and put about 2-3 tablespoons of meat
filling in the middle. Fold the bottom of the leaf up over the filling, then
fold each side in. Roll the leaf up loosely over the filling like an eggroll.
Complete with rest of leaves till filling is used up.
Mix the tomato sauce, stock or water, and salt and pepper together. Place about
1/4 cup on the bottom of a casserole dish. Place all of the cabbage rolls, seam
side down, tightly in the dish. Pour rest of sauce over the rolls.
Bake, covered, in a 350° oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add water or stock as needed
to keep from drying out (rice will soak up liquid as it cooks).
Serve topped with a little sour cream.
VARIATIONS
You do not have to use all three types of meat, but do try to use a mixture of
beef and pork. Season the meat mixture as you like. A little horseradish makes a
nice addition.
Sometimes one or two grated carrots are added to the meat filling.
Rice can be half-cooked first if you like.
Substitute chopped tomatoes for the tomato sauce if you like. You might need a
little more water.
Add a little dill to the meat filling or the tomato sauce if you like.
Jewish Holishkes: eliminate the pork. Add 1/4 cup brown sugar and 3-4 Tbsp lemon
juice to the tomato sauce to make a sweet-sour sauce.
NOTES
Golabki (pronounced ga-WUMP-kee) means "little pigeons" in Polish. They are
popular in both Poland and in Russia, where they are known as golubtsy.
Do not roll up the cabbage rolls too tightly, the rice will expand as it cooks.
