    But there’s more to Jamaica than their mouth-watering cock, and Tropical Sun are also launching an entire range of authentic Caribbean products that promise to bring hot and spicy jerk action to households up and down the country.

    You've reminded me that I haven't cooked one of my favourites for a long time, Chicken in breadcrumbs ala Weiner Schnitzel style.

    Put bread ( preferably on the stale side ) in a blender, I find a mixture of white and wholemeal is good but this is just a personal preference, you can really muck about with this, adding herbs, pepper, paprika, chillis....whatever takes your fancy...

    Flatten the chicken breasts ( covered by grease-proof paper ) with a solid bread board or something heavy-ish and flat.

    Dust chicken with plain flour, dip this into whisked egg mix ( 1 or 2 eggs should do ) until completely covered and then dip this into your breadcrumb mix.

    Fry on a medium heat on both sides for about 3 minutes each side until breadcrumbs are golden brown.

    Done! eat

    p.s. If I have any mushrooms I'll chop those into large chunks and do them the same as the chicken to use up any left-over ingrediants.

    Serve up with baby potatoes and garnished salad in whatever way you enjoy it.


    I did this on Saturday including the mushrooms bit lick Remember, if you try this, to give the chicken breast a damned good bashing, preferably with a heavy duty bread board or the like.

    I thought Timmer was extolling the virtues of German coq au vin... wink

    Timmer, why the flattening? Even cooking! Don't you destroy the chicken's texture by doing that?

    By flattening it ( nothing wrong with a bit of tenderising wink It doesn't destroy the texture and if you have Butchers like we have in the UK the Butcher will flatten the fillet for you ) it means you can cook on a slightly higher heat for less time and also ensures the breadcrumbs don't burn.

    Always throw a few breadcrumbs in the pan before cooking just to make sure your fat is at the right heat.

    p.s. I always whisk a small dollop of mayonnaise in with the egg, works for me.

  4. confused Turkey that once had feathers not someone from the highlands of Anatolia!

    Some fruity stuff goes extremely well with curry saté. Youmight also chop an apple, or fresh pinapple if you don't like bananas.

    You know in Germany you can buy schnitzel style cuts of turkey meat. Two of those I chopped to smaller pieces. It's handeled like pork.

    No. Stem cells. Very tasty although rather expensive.

    "proper"? Try 'like what I am used to' wink

    Shops here are inundated with so many "foreign" brands I'm surprised you can't find what you want?

    Great! I love Byzantine recipes! biggrin

    Seriously. Looking forward to the recipe. As luck would have it I will have a friend over in the near future who has expressed a predilection for Hellenic food, so I want to try a lot out on him!

    I also tried a Kleftico recipe that stavi sent me a few years ago that was very good. lick

    I remember having difficulty getting the particular cheese for the recipe ( can't remember the name? ), what was it called?

    It's a slow cooked lamb dish.

    Funny enough it's a dish I've made loads of times over the years and I think it was because I mentioned eating it on this board that Stavi sent me her recipe.*

    I think everyone has their own ways of cooking it, apart from Stavi's which I cooked to the letter not one Kleftico I've made has been the same. Apart from some early disasters all the Klefticos I've made have been good to excellent.

    *If it's not a pain Stavi, perhaps you could be good enough to put the recipe up here? I would do it myself except I lost it along with my pre-Devonian period computer about a year ago.
