Danish Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

2 pork tenderloins, about 1 lb. each
2 large apples, peeled and chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
12 prunes, pitted
2 T butter
1/2 cup beef bouillon
1 cup heavy cream


Split tenderloins the long way, cutting 2/3 of way through.
Open flat and pound to an even thickness.
Place apples on meat and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Lay 6 prunes across the short end of each tenderloin and roll like a jelly roll.
Tie securely, then brown on all sides in butter.
Add bouillon and heavy cream.
Cover and bake at 350 for 1 hour.
Add water if necessary.
Remove meat to a hot platter, skim fat from sauce, scrape the pan so that none of the delicious brownings will be lost.
Whirl smooth in blender or press through a fine sieve.
Reheat and pour over meat.

Changes: I had a 3 lb. boneless pork loin that was on sale ($1.99/#). I sliced through center and just put apples and prunes in center and covered up. I didn't tie up, brown, add the boullion or cover. I used light cream.

My friend's bday is coming up and she loves to cook, and I know wanted a cast iron pan. So bday gift now set.

I would like to get something to go along with it (other than a sturdy brush, ha), so I was thinking of a cookbook. Any suggestions for a book? Perhaps one geared to cast iron cooking? Or, one that would be good with it?

This recipe was in last week's paper and is part of an online cookbook fundraiser for foodbanks - like it to donate a meal if you care to. My dw said it tastes like comfort food.

Lemon and Asparagus Pasta
- from Chef Anna March at Urban Elelment
- serves 4 to 6

1 pkg (375 g) Catelli Smart® Rotini Pasta
2 tbsp olive oil
1 white onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 chicken breasts cut into 1 inch seasoned strips
1 (15 stalks) bunch of asparagus cut into 1 inch lengths
1 lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
6 green onions (scallions) sliced
1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
2 cups kale chopped into 1 inch pieces
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp fresh cracked pepper
2 tbsp whole grain mustard
2/3 cup reduced fat cream
1 cup water

Cook pasta until just underdone in a large pot of boiling salted water.
Season chicken strips with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Sauté onion, garlic and seasoned chicken breast until almost cooked but not browned.
Add asparagus, lemon zest, mustard, cream, water, and cooked pasta. Reduce for 5 minutes or until the cream coats the pasta.
Season with lemon juice, Parmesan and green onions. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm.

Andy's notes: I prepared everything ahead and it all came together rather quickly. I thought my 13" nonstick frypan was a little small so finished making it in a Dutch oven. I used 10% cream and it seemed to curdle, so I stirred in (with a rubber spatula) about a Tbs+ of cold butter, cut in pieces, to smooth it out. We liked the recipe with some extra lemon squeezed over our servings as well as some pepper (plus some ground hot chiliis for me). I added a few Kalamatas on the side as well. As our kale was flowering I added some flower buds to the kale (and forgot to save some for garnish, doh :() ]]> Great Food hAndyman http://community.cookinglight.com/showthread.php?152802-Lemon-and-Asparagus-Pasta Cooking Game of the Week #92 05/22/2013 http://community.cookinglight.com/showthread.php?152801-Cooking-Game-of-the-Week-92-05-22-2013&goto=newpost Wed, 22 May 2013 13:24:22 GMT Good Morning Everyone!!!!!!!!

I make these scones more than any other and so I'm surprised that I haven't posted the recipe here. Often while one pan is in the oven I make a second batch using all the same dishes so as to double our pleasure ( they freeze well). They can also be made in a food processor.

Oat Scones

1 cup rolled oats, quick or old-fashioned, toasted or not
1-1/2 cup flour or whole wheat flour or some of each
3 Tbs brown or dark brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
7 Tbs cold butter, cut up
1 egg
1/2 cup milk or cream
1/2 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 425 deg F.

Mix dry ingredients in large bowl. Cut in butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Beat egg with milk and vanilla; stir into flour mix just until evenly moistened. Scatter some oats or flour on counter and turn dough out. Pat into a circle about 1 inch thick. Brush with some milk or cream and sprinkle with some sugar (coarse crystalline if you have it) or oats. Cut into 8 wedges and place together on a cookie sheet or in a 9" or 10" pie plate. Bake at 425 deg F until just nicely browned, 12 to 15 minutes.

Andy’s note: these are delicious with marmalade, jams, maple butter or honey; they’re decadent with apple butter and whipped cream for a dessert or sinful breakfast. I love them split and smothered with yogurt cheese (ie thickened yogurt, or else regular or fruit yogurt) and a spoonful of blackcurrant jam (pictured) or apple butter (or any other jam or jelly) on top for breakfast; absolutely delicious with a spoonful of ginger jam/marmalade on lemon yogurt
These improve in flavour if you take them out of the oven and wrap them in a clean dishtowel, allowing them to slowly cool a bit before you devour them.
The original recipe said to cook them on a preheated baking stone. I only did that the first time and have not bothered ever since. ]]> Great Food hAndyman http://community.cookinglight.com/showthread.php?152800-Oat-Scones American Flag Question http://community.cookinglight.com/showthread.php?152799-American-Flag-Question&goto=newpost Wed, 22 May 2013 00:29:40 GMT Today my DD was out on her run and she saw an American Flag in the road.
