What recipe should I demonstrate to my class?
Okay, to practice our Spanish, in my extra Spanish classes I have been told to find a recipe for something and demonstrate it.
It doesn’t have to be Spanish – it can be any type of food – all I need to do is find a nice simple recipe with not too many ingredients, and then I can translate it into spanish to present to the class.
I have to make it myself in front of the class and it there won’t be an oven available (but we will be able to store things in a fridge)
So, it has to be:
1)Quite quick
2) Simple – not too many ingredients
3) Made without using an oven
4) Not too dull, nothing like “cheese on toast” or “jam sandwich”
5) Quite cheap, I don’t want to spend loads on a piece of Spanish homework!
(Just out of interest, I’m doing A-Level Spanish at college)
Ground beef with mushrooms (rice side dish)
1lb ground beef
one pkg sliced mushrooms
one large yellow onion
garlic powder
paprika
s/p
1 cup rice. (that’s all the ingredients!)
chop up all the onion and saute.
get 2 cups water ready for rice and add half of the sauteed onions to it. Add bullion or just salt for added taste.
Add mushrooms to skillet of onions and resaute.
Add the ground beef to skillet of onion/mushrooms and cook until all loose and cooked.
add sprinkle of garlic powder, and paprika and salt/pepper. And sometime I add a tiny sprinkle of italian seasoning (like the kind you sprinking on pizzas)
stir meat mixture until rice is done and serve with the rice. (I grew up with this recipe)
-(And when I was making it, my BIL, a chef, took over and added a splash of white wine to the meat mixture and also1jar spegetti sauce (I use Prego) and it was devine!)
Very simple. No oven, and not many ingredients and not a PB&J, and not expensive. And makes great leftovers.
Buena suerte!

Spanish Tapas
Tapas are snacks, small delicious bites of food served at Tapas Bars and restaurants all over Spain. Inexpensive and with marvellous variety, Tapas are a good way to sample Spanish dishes without over filling your stomach or over emptying your pockets.
Origin
It is said that Tapas were created for the first time when the ailing King of Spain, Alfonso the 10th, was advised by his physicians that a cure would be found if instead of drinking wine by itself, between meals, he consumed a morsel of food with it. When the King had recovered from his illness, he wished to save the general populace from suffering in the same way and declared that from that time onwards, no alcohol could be served in the inns and taverns of Castile unless food was served with it.
Apart from the legend, there were purely practical reasons for the tradition of Tapas too. Farmers and labourers in rural Spain found Tapas a welcome addition to their work day, in that it gave them the energy to enable them to continue working throughout the day.
Tapas and Drink
Historically, wine was served with Tapas in winter to keep the body heated and ward off illness. In taverns, wine was served with a piece of bread with a topping of cheese or ham balanced on the mouth of the glass, to cover the wine and also to lessen the effects of the alcohol by absorbing it in the stomach. Wine is still the favoured accompaniment today but depending on the region and the season, sherry or cider might also be served with Tapas.
In summer, the drink often taken with Tapas in the hot regions of Southern Spain is gazpacho, a cold soup made primarily of tomatoes that is cooling and refreshing.
Tapas Recipes
Like the alcohol served with the Tapas, the Tapas itself can vary greatly from region to region and recipes have developed and changed throughout history. In medieval times, widespread poverty meant that the main ingredient of Tapas was bread, a cheap and readily available staple. Olives were also favoured whole or in a paste on bread, being plentiful all over Spain.
In wealthier times and today, meat (ham or sausage, smoked or fresh), fish and seafood (fried whitebait or calamari), dairy products (Spanish cheeses) and eggs (tortilla) are common constituents of Tapas. Vegetables are also important. Green beans in a garlicky tomato sauce are popular as are fried aubergine and potatoes.
Tapas have endured throughout the ages thanks to their combination of convenience, practicality and of course, their delicious taste.

Recipe for vegetarian sandwich wraps?
I’m trying to find a good recipe for sandwich wraps that are good vegetarian or with meat. I was thinking spanish rice, black beans, lettuce, tomato, and salsa (and adding chicken to some). Does this sound good or bad? What are some other ways to incorporate spanish rice into a chicken/vegetarian wrap? Or any other good vegetarian/meat recipes that only require a few ingredients (i’m trying to do this on the cheap). Thanks!
I’m confused… if one is a vegetarian, why would one be asking about chicken?
Put your favorite vegetables into a flour tortilla and roll up, or into pocket-bread.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
