INGREDIENTS
3 cup of Chicken broth

1 1/3 cup of Cornmeal (yellow)
1/4 teaspoon of Cayenne
1 tablespoon of Flour
2 lb Chicken parts

Bring the chicken broth to a boil; add chopped onion and peppercorns. Add

Strain the cooked chicken out of the broth and save the broth. Remove the
bones and inedible parts from the cooked chicken, then chop or grind the
cooked meat into fine pieces. Be careful if you use a food processor, so
that you don't puree the meat.
Simmer the chicken broth in a large pan. Mix cornmeal, flour, salt, thyme,
sage and cayenne with about 1 cup of cold water. Stir well. Now slowly
stir this mixture into the simmering broth.
Add the cooked, ground chicken to the simmering pot. Simmer and stir for

until firm. To serve: remove from pan, cut into slices, roll in flour or

Irish Stew Recipe

INGREDIENTS
* 1-1½ kg neck or shoulder of lamb
* Bouquet of parsley, thyme and bayleaf (tied together with twine)
* 3 large onions, finely chopped
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper
* 3-4 carrots, chopped into bite-sized pieces
* 1 small turnip, chopped into bite-sized pieces
* Some small new potatoes, peeled and quartered, or large potatoes, peeled and chopped
* 75-100g cabbage, shredded
* Finely chopped parsley and dash of Worcester Sauce
DIRECTIONS
Remove the meat from the bone, trim off all the fat and cut into cubes. Keep the bones, place the meat in a pot, cover with cold salted water. Bring to the boil, drain and rinse the lamb.
In a fresh pot put the meat, bones, bouquet of herbs, onions, seasoning, carrots, leeks and turnip and cover with water. Simmer gently for one hour. Skim off the foam as it rises. (this is very important for the final flavour and appearance of the stew.) Add the potatoes and continue cooking for 25 mins. For the last 5 mins add in the cabbage. When the meat and vegetables are cooked remove the bones and bouquet for herbs. Stir in the chopped parsley and a dash of Worcester sauce. Serve in large bowls with soda bread.

Mexican Salad Recipe

INGREDIENTS
* 2 carrots, peeled and finely sliced
* A small bunch of radishes (about 10), trimmed and finely sliced
* A large bunch of fresh coriander, leaves and stalks finely chopped
* 2 large jalapeƱo chillies (or other green chilli), to taste, finely sliced
* ½ a small red cabbage
* ½ a small white cabbage
* 1 red onion, peeled and finely sliced
* Extra virgin olive oil
* Juice of 2-3 limes
* Sea salt
DIRECTIONS
1. The best way to make this is to use a food processor with a slicer attachment or a mandolin. If you don't have either of those, use a speed peeler, or simply grate everything finely.
2. Shred your white and red cabbage into 2 separate piles. Put just the white cabbage into a large bowl with the radishes, carrots & most of the coriander. Mix everything together really well, then kick up the flavours by adding almost all the chopped chilli, the sliced red onion and a good few lugs of extra virgin olive oil. Add most of the lime juice and a good pinch of salt, then toss together and have a taste. Just keep adjusting everything, adding more fragrance with the coriander, heat with the last of the chilli and acid with another squeeze of lime juice, until it's just right for you.
3. When you're happy, fold in the red cabbage right before serving and eat.
