Great menu! Can I have the recipe of:
marinated eggplant
poached chicken with pesto
summer squash and tomato saute
How early can you start preparing,and will it stay fresh for y"t, is anything good if frozen?
Thanks |
Just bumping this up.

I'm sorry; I've been baking all day and haven't gotten on line.
Zucchini Creole
1 C sliced unpeeled zucchini
3 T margarine
2 T matza cake meal
3 large tomatoes, chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 t salt
1 T brown sugar
Matza meal for topping
Slice raw unpeeled zucchini into greased casserole. Melt 2T margarine. At matza cake meal and stir. Add tomatoes, green pepper, onion, salt, brown sugar. Cook 5 minutes. Pour over zucchini. Top with matza meal and dot with margarine. Cook at 350 for 1 hour.
Although this recipe is gebrochs, I bet it would be easy to substitute potato starch and skip the matza meal topping for those who wish.

Great menu! Can I have the recipe of:
marinated eggplant
poached chicken with pesto
summer squash and tomato saute

Thanks |
marinated eggplant (Joy of Kosher)
(since dh wants ketchup with his burgers, I figure I might as well use it in another recipe I think he will enjoy if I already have the bottle in the house)
1 large eggplant
oil, for frying
parsley (flakes), optional
1 cup ketchup
4 Tbsp sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
4 garlic cloves, crushed
salt and pepper, to taste
Slice eggplant into 1/2" rounds.
Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Fry eggplant in batches until light to medium brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain eggplant in a colander. Leave a plate under the colander to catch the oil. Let drain for 1 hour.
Prepare the sauce; combine the parsley, ketchup, sugar, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.
Add the eggplant to the sauce, being careful not to break up the eggplant.
This should last in the fridge a week.
poached chicken with pesto
• 3 lbs. large chicken breasts
• 5 3/4 cups chicken soup broth
Pesto:
• 2 cups baby spinach leaves or parsley, lightly packed (about 1.5 ounces)
• 3/4 cup basil leaves, lightly packed (about .5 ounce)
• 1 cup walnuts or 1/2 cup ground walnuts
• 4 garlic cloves, quartered
• 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt OR 1 tsp regular salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 cup olive oil
In a medium pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add chicken, and when the broth comes back to a boil, reduce to a simmer.
Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Turn off heat and allow chicken to finish cooking from the retained heat for 15 minutes. Remove chicken from broth, cover and chill in refrigerator for 1 hour.
To prepare pesto: Pulse-grind the spinach, basil, walnuts, garlic, salt and pepper in a food processor. Stream in the olive oil very slowly, while the machine is running continuously, until a thick pesto has formed.
Spread pesto over cooked cutlets or cut cooled chicken into slices, and drizzle with pesto. Serve any additional sauce on the side.
I'm using a chicken or turkey roast this year and will adjust cooking instructions and times accordingly. But the last 2 years I used large whole breasts.
I don't freeze chicken. But if I end up using the dark meat chicken? turkey? roast I have, I just might freeze the dry slices.
The pesto stays in the fridge a week in tightly sealed container. Freezes great too.
summer squash and tomato saute
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 small (about 2 cups) zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium (about 1 cup) yellow summer squash, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
salt and pepper, to taste
2 Tbsp chopped fresh basil leaves (optional)
Saute zucchini and squash for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and saute an additional 2 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper, and basil leaves if using.
If not using basil, add 1 garlic clove to squash when sauteeing. Good if using basil too.
Keeps in fridge 3 days. I usually prepare the quick veggie dishes the morning of Erev Yom Tov.

Thanks ramom!
Can you tell me what from your menu could be cooked already, either freezing it or maybe staying fresh in the fridge.

But I baked all the cakes and cookies last night and they are safely in the freezer.
I will freeze:
chicken soup broth
egg noodles (rolled into cigars and double wrapped - ready to be sliced thin)
apple sauce compote
pickled roast (sliced and double wrapped, liquid frozen in separate container)
roast beef (as above)
potato kugel (to reheat place in 350 oven tightly covered until heated through then higher heat uncover and crisp back up)
meatballs (seasoned and formed, raw)
burgers (seasoned and formed, raw)
I separate everything into meal sizes, so that I only have to take out what I need, and leftovers stay fresh in the freezer.
sauteed zucchini I freeze undercooked, if you want another frozen idea.
mashed potatoes, I'm unsure if I will, but can be AFAIK
kolichel, herb roaster chicken, meatballs, are being done in the crockpot. so I just have to dump in the day I want it. maybe the pickled chicken also. have never tried that yet so still unsure about that.
cucumber salad, cole slaw, carrot salad all stay well in fridge for a week.
poached salmon stays 5 days. (marinated/pickled salmon stays 1-2 weeks)

I haven't actually made this before but found it a while ago and thought it was perfect for Pesach -
2 medium cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup radishes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
2 tsps oil
2 tblspns white wine vinegar
2 tblspns fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 tblspns fresh chives, finely chopped
1 tblspn fresh dill, finely chopped
1 tblspn sugar
Combine vegetables in a deep bowl.
Mix the dressing ingredients together and pour over the vegetables.
Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Chill before serving.
