Tonight we experimented with breaded corned beef balls and for afters; sweet fritters.
For the meatballs:
Put half a small onion, a tin of corned beef, a dash of Wooster sauce and 1 slice of bread in a food processor and chop until you have something that resembles a paste. Then make the mixture into small balls, brush with egg or milk and roll in some more breadcrumbs before placing in the oven for 10-12 minutes on gas mark 6. You could always add a teaspoon of herbs or spices for added flavour.
For the fritters we rubbed 25g margarine into 225g of self raising flour. Then we added 1/4 pint of milk, an egg, 25g sugar and mixed it into a thick batter. We then heated a little oil in a pan and added little dollops of the mixture. Making sure to fry on both sides until brown and firm to the touch using the spatula. Remove them onto a rack to cool before rolling them in caster sugar.
About Me
- Sarah-Ellen
- I will attempt to update wartime recipes to modern tastes, in order to keep up with new trends, attitudes and approaches to food and it's preparation while still keeping a traditional British wartime feel to recipes. I will start by making recipes to the letter and move forward from there to encompass different modern diets. I will attempt to make meals first fit in to a popular diet plan and then will move on to Vegetarian/Vegan versions. So that everyone can enjoy British wartime recipes. This experiment is for my own amusement as well as to feel closer to my grandparents over the years they cooked and lived through hard times.
