  More Garlic Prawns:
  For those who like them creamy:
  
  *Cook prawns in hot wok with garlic & a little white wine – set aside
  
  *Put cream & more garlic in pan/wok and continue stirring until cream reduces,
  *1/2 teaspoon of chicken stock adds flavour also
  *add prawns to warm through.

  Preheat your oven to 200Centigrade
  
  Take 4 large capsicums and cut in half lengthways. Clean out seeds and flesh. Put aside
  
  Take one eggplant and thinly slice. Wash and set aside.
  
  Take 250grams of bacon/ham and chop finely.
  Take 230 grams of minced beef and combine with the bacon/ham.
  
  Place the beef and ham in a frypan and brown.
  
  Season with freshly chopped chillis, cumin in the frypan whilst browning
  the meat.
  
  Once the meat is browned, spoon the mixture into the capsicum halves.
  
  Sprinkle a liberal amount of Mozeralla cheese on top of the filled capsicum halves and cover with that with slices of the eggplant.
  
  Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
  
  Delicious stuffed capsicum!

  These are quick and delicious.. one of my favourite snacks:
  
  Sesame Seed Toffee Snaps
  
  Ingredients
  445 g caster sugar
  200 g pack of sesame seeds
  
  Directions
  1. Put sugar and 8 Tbsp. of water into a pan on a medium heat. Use a spoon to stir together -watch closely- it will become a syrup.
  2. Carry on cooking until light golden, then add your sesame seeds and continue to cook until dark brown.
  3. Pour out your sesame seed caramel on to an oiled non-stick tray or oiled tin-foil. Use a palette knife to push it out to about 0.5cm thick (even thinner if you can).

  Quick Snax? Try this Lithuanian bar snack called Kepta Duona a Suris
  
  Take one loaf of Russian Black bread (or Latvian Sweet and sour black bread). cut into slices and then into square lengths (like rods)
  
  Soak the lengths of bread in olive oil and crushed garlic.
  
  Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
  
  Whilst that is baking, cut some Carlsberg cheese, cheddar and Brie into cubes.
  
  Serve the cheese with the bread…. delicious and also promotes the drinking of more beer…

  Angel Food Cake
  
  -Ingredients-
  12 egg whites
  1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
  1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  1 cup sifted cake flour
  1/4 teaspoon salt
  
  -Directions-
  In large mixing bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar at high speed until foamy. Add 3/4 cup of the sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating constantly until sugar is dissolved* and whites are glossy and stand in soft peaks. Beat in flavorings.
  
  Sift together flour, remaining sugar and salt. Sift about 1/2 cup of the flour mixture over whites and gently fold just until flour disappears. Repeat, folding in remaining flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time. Pour into ungreased 10 x 4-inch tube pan. Gently cut through batter with metal spatula.
  
  Bake in preheated 375°F oven until top springs back when lightly touched with finger, about 30 to 40 minutes. Invert cake in pan on funnel or bottle neck. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours. With narrow spatula or knife, loosen cake from pan and gently shake onto serving plate. Top with fruit or frost, if desired.
  
  *Rub just a bit of meringue between thumb and forefinger to feel if sugar has dissolved.
  
  CHOCOLATE VARIATION: Omit almond extract and increase vanilla to 2 teaspoons. Reduce flour to 2/3 cup and sift in 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa. Prepare batter and bake as above.
