equal weight raspberries or strawberries to jam sugar.  Leave in bowl covered for 48hours.  Put in a pan and on heat to melt sugar, boil for 8 mins which should get you to a set.  Pot in sterile jars.

You will not taste a fresher jam than this.

This recipe works equally well with either salmon or tuna steaks.
Quantities given are for two.
Place salmon/tuna steaks in suitable dish.
Squeeze a half lime and quarter lemon over fish.
Crush a small piece of fresh ginger (a garlic crush works well for this) onto the fish.
Add zest of lime and a dessert spoon of sweet chili sauce.
Season with black pepper.
Turn fish to mix ingredients and leave flesh side down to marinade for about 15 minutes.
Heat a good quality oil (I use Mellow Yellow rape seed) and cook skin side down for a couple of mins' turn and cook for a further couple of mins. (adjust times to suit your own preference/size of steaks.)
Enjoy with a well chilled Rose' such as Cassillero del Diablo, Fetzer Syrah or Tagus Creek  happy3

Barbequed/roast leg of lamb 2

Ingredients
Leg of lamb
3 tablespoons of redcurrant jelly
6 tablespoons of red wine
1 teaspoon of dried rosemary

Make a glaze for the lamb by bringing the redcurrant jelly, red wine and rosemary to boil.  Simmer for 5 minutes to reduce.

If roasting, brush glaze over lamb, use excess to baste during cooking.

If barbequeing, add some red wine vinegar to glaze.  Place lamb in suitable container, pour over the glaze, turn to cover evenly and leave for an hour (longer means better  Wink ) turning occassionally.
Wrap in foil and cook on barbeque.

Serve with veg/salad of your choice and the remainder of the wine, if you haven't already drunk it while lamb was cooking  Laughing

Be warned, the glaze makes a horrible mess of your roasting pan, so best to line with foil  Idea

Recently bought a secondhand food dehydrator after talking to my friend who uses one for making her own show bait etc...
I do not bait my dogs, but I do like to have a little treat for them every so often...I can see that the dehydrator ($30NZ) will soon have more than paid for itself and I share the spoils with sister for her dog ...it takes quite a while to dry out the liver and meat slices (cannot give exact time because I didnt time the operation) but you can do heaps at a time...what a marvellous invention... Smile
