chicken tandoori burgers
you can either make your own chicken patties or just use chicken breast and marinate i have done both and both are delicious if you want to make your own chicken patties mince thigh fillets with the paste about 500g and only need couple of table spoons of paste and you can make you own paste or buy it your choice :) than add half cup of breadcrumbs with fresh coriander and just shape and cook other wise here is recipe for marinade


foccia bread made in tm of course

100g tandoori paste
2 tbsp greek style yoghurt
1 tb lemon juice
1 lebanese cucumber
80 g baby spinach
3 tomatoes
mint leaves
mango chutney

minted yoghurt
180g greek style yoghurt
2tbs mint

wizz in the tm tandoori paste, yoghurt, lemon juice than pour over chicken breast and marinate and leave sit for at least 10 min longer is best so it can absorb the flavour.

cook chicken on grill meanwhile wizz in the tm the mint sauce

layer the burgers with rest of ingredients and use vegetable peeler to slice the cucumber lengthways into thin ribbons spread with mint sauce and serve with mango chutney

ITS DELICIOUS!!!

here is the pork dumplings and i have to apologise i dont really have set times for cooking i guess my way through things and hope they turn out :)
250g pork mince
40g chinese cabbage (i used a bit more)
2 shallots
2/3 cloves garlic
10g ginger
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornflour
40 wonton wraps

sauce
60ml soy sauce
2 t/sp white vinegar
2 teaspoons brown sugar

chop garlic and ginger add mince and than add rest of ingredients and gently mix together.
place a teablespoon of mixture into wonton wrappers
place dumplings in batches in large bamboo steamer (i dont have one so i used a normal steamer they did stick a little bit but doesnt take away the taste) they only take about 4 or so minutes to cook.
wizz the sauce up in the tm and serve it was a big hit both from kids and husband i also deep fried some i know its not as healthy but still tasted very delicious :)

         lunch rice paper noodles
         we usually have a few nibblings on a sunday arv while watching the footy so a little chesse platter with some dip i love the sundried tomato dip
         dinner
         (my dear husband gives me the night off and cooks so usually its meat the 3 vege he hasnt mastered the tm yet but he tries he can grind our coffee beans and makes his milkshakes and smoothies in there but thats as far as he goes at the moment but i am happy to take the night off from cooking)
monday
          lunch - sushi
          dinner - tandoori chicken burgers (all done in tm from the chicken mince to the foccia bread DELICIOUS!!)
