    Schnitzels are crumbed meat slices cooked in a fry

    pan. With this easy technique, they turn out perfectly

    every time!

    4 chicken breasts

    cup flour

    2 beaten eggs

    salt and pepper

    2 cups freshbread crumbs

    1. Preheat oven to 225C. Cut the chicken breasts

    in half, so they are only half as thick. Gently beat

    them with a meat mallet until they are of an even

    thickness.

    Lightly beat eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper in

    a shallow bowl. Combine the bread crumbs, parsley,

    lemon rind and parmesan and place on another

    sheet of paper.3. To crumb the chicken, lightly coat them with flour,

    shaking off any excess. Dip them into the egg and

    then firmly press a good coating of crumbs on both

    sides.

    4. Place the crumbed chicken onto a baking tray lined

    with baking paper. Drizzle some olive oil over each.

    Bake in a 225C oven. When the crumbs are brown

    your chicken will be cooked.

    5. Serve with a wedge of lemon & a salad of mixed

    greens!

    Serves 4 - 6 people

    cup flat leaf parsley,

    chopped

    grated rind of one lemon

    cup grated parmesan

    cheese cup olive oil

    Zacs Tip:Spoon some pasta sauce over

    the chicken and sprinkle with

    mozzarella cheese about five

    minutes before removing from

    the oven. Yummy!!

    Who says hamburgers and friescant be healthy?

    Ingredients

    4 big potatoes, peeled

    2 tbsp olive oil

    salt and pepper

    750g lean beef mince

    1 onion, finely chopped

    2 tbsp oregano (optional) 2 tsp crushed garlic

    1 egg

    1. Fries: Preheat oven to 225C. Cut each potato into

    eight wedges. Place in a large plastic bag with oil, salt

    and pepper, then squish around to coat the wedges.

    2. Lay the wedges out in a single layer on a tray lined

    with baking paper. Place in oven and bake until they

    are golden brown and crisp (about forty minutes.)

    Hamburgers:

    1. Combine the mince, onion, oregano, garlic andegg. Shape into four large patties, making them just

    slightly larger than the buns (they will shrink slightly

    when cooked.) Brush lightly with oil.

    2. Cook the burgers on the barbecue, under a grill

    or in a heavy frying pan. Split and toast the buns.

    To assemble the burgers, place the lettuce on the

    base of the buns, followed by the sauce, the pattie,

    more sauce and then the tomatoes. Serve with a

    generous portion of fries.

    Serves 4

    For cheese burgers, just top

    the patty with a slice of cheese

    after you turn it over so it has

    time to melt while cooking.

    Ingredients

    1 unsliced loaf of bread

    4 slices ham

    12 thin slices tomato

    125g cheddar cheese, cut into 8 slices

    12 basil leaves (optional) 3 eggs

    half cup milk

    salt and pepper

    50g butter

    1. Preheat oven to 180C. Cut four x 4cm thick slices

    from the loaf. Then with a small sharp knife, cut a deep

    pocket in one side of the bread (into where you will slip

    the filling). Try not to tear the rest of the bread (but if you

    do - you can push it back together again).

    2. Fold the ham slices and tuck them into the pocket along

    with the cheese, tomato and basil leaves. Press firmly

    back together.

    3. Beat the eggs in a shallow ovenproof dish which will

    be big enough to hold the four bread pockets. Add the

    milk and season well. Soak the bread pockets in the egg

    mixture, turn over after five minutes. Repeat until the

    egg mixture is absorbed.

    4. Heat half of the butter in a heavy pan and carefully slip

    your pockets into this. Cook until golden brown on one

    side and then turn over. Repeat. Place the toasts on a

    tray and bake 180C oven for ten minutes, to make sure

    the fillings are heated through. Cut in half to serve.

    Serves 4

    This is a great chocolate sauce recipe because it is so

    quick and easy, yet absolutely wonderful. You could also

    make it in the microwave - even easier!

    Ingredients

    200g dark chocolate

    cup cream

    1 tsp vanilla essence

    1 punnet strawberries

    1 green skinned apple

    1 banana

    1. Place the chocolate, cream and vanilla in a small pot and

    very gently heat over a low flame. When the chocolate is

    starting to soften remove it from the heat and stir until

    melted and combined. Alternatively, microwave it on

    medium heat for four minutes.

    2. For the fruit kebabs, thread different fruits onto wooden

    skewers. Dip the fruit into the chocolate sauce and

    enjoy.

    Frittatas are easy egg dishes that become special when

    you add certain ingredients, like asparagus and sweet

    onions. They make great simple meals and this one is sure

    to impress people on special occasions.

    1 new season white onion

    1/4 cup olive oil

    1 tbsp crushed garlic

    8 fat asparagus spears (enough to give one

    generous cup of finely sliced spears)

    Salt and pepper

    8 big eggs

    1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese

    1. Heat olive oil in pan. Chop the onion finely and add to

    the pan with the olive oil. When the onion has started

    to soften, add the garlic and the sliced asparagus.

    Continue to cook until the asparagus is tender - about

    four minutes.

    2. Lightly beat the eggs and sprinkle with salt and

    pepper. Add three quarters of the cheese to the eggs

    and pour this mixture over the vegetables. Move the

    mixture around allowing the liquid egg to replace the

    set mixture. When you have lots of thick mixture, stop

    stirring and allow it to set.

    3. Scatter the rest of the cheese over the top of the frittata

    and brown the top under a grill or cover with a lid and let

    it set for a few minutes.

    Serves 4

    Poppys TipYou can use fried diced potatoes

    instead of asparagus for aheartier frittata! - Leftovers are

    delicious served cold the next day.
