[MJZiggy]

Thank, Mike! That one sounds good. And I'm willing to do the tomatoes cooked, so I would probably just put them on first and put everything else over them so they cook. I'd never thought of cookie cutters with pizza dough before...

[The Leaper]

Slang for the dollar bills that Mad stuffs in the strippers g-strings on Friday nights?

Doesn't sound appetizing to me.

[digitaldean]

Besides beer, chips and salsa.....

I've tried this and they're pretty addictive:

Take whole water chestnuts, wrap in bacon, secure with toothpics

Mix 1/2 cup sugar with 1/3 cup ketchup - pour over top of bacon/waterchestnuts.

Bake in a 350° oven. Until bacon is cooked through.

[MJZiggy]

Wow, that's fantastic!

Fred...I like water chestnuts and bacon...but together? Hmmmmm...? Then add ketchup and sugar? Damn.....

That is some wild sounding stuff.

[MJZiggy]

Water chestnuts are the white crunchy bits in Chinese food. I was gonna post an image, but, well let's just say it's better not to. But that recipe sounds great. Anyone else got anything good?

[Freak Out]

Just order out Thai...get a bunch of fresh rolls, good red panang and a big bowl of rice. Yum!

Manapua

http://img.recipezaar.com/img/recipes/53/64/3//thumbs/piciQ67PQ.jpg



Manapua are a wonderful snack food popular in Hawaii. I found this recipe in a travel magazine a few years ago. You can substitute Chinese BBQ pork (char siu) for the sausage if you'd like.



12 servings 3¾ hours 3½ hours prep

Dough
2 cups lukewarm water
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 packages dry yeast (not rapid yeast)
8 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 cups flour

Filling
4 cups Chinese sausage, diced
1/4 teaspoon garlic, finely minced
1 cup bean sprouts
1/2 cup carrots, coarsely shredded
1 green onion, chopped
1/2 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
2 teaspoons sherry wine
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar


Dough: Mix dry ingredients together (including yeast).
Add oil and water and mix well.
Knead dough until smooth (about 10 minutes).
Place in a large bowl; cover with a clean damp cloth and leave in a warm place to rise for about 2 hours.
Filling: Mix together sherry, oyster sauce, soy sauce, water, sugar and cornstarch until free of lumps.
Heat 1 T oil in a wok or pan over medium heat, add sausage and saute for 1 minute.
Add vegetables and cook until crisp tender.
Add liquid mixture and cook until thickened slightly.
Cool before using.
Divide manapua dough into 24 balls.
Slightly flatten each ball, then roll out to 4-inch disks, leaving the center of the circle twice as thick as the sides.
Place 1 T of filling in the center of the dough.
Gather up the sides around the filling and twist dough to seal.
Place with twisted side down on a 2-inch square piece of wax paper.
Put buns 2 inches apart in a steamer and allow to rise for another hour.
Steam for 15 minutes.
If you prefer to bake the manapua, preheat oven to 350°.
Set the buns 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.
Brush with a mixture of 1 beaten egg, water and 1/4 tsp sugar.
Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

[Iron Mike]

Or, you could just buy char sui bao buns at an Oriental store and steam them babies yourself.

These are great, but I need more recipes...(in case you haven't figured it out, I have an alternative use for them.)

[Harlan Huckleby]

Just order out Thai...

Here's a great recipe I found over the holidays and made it again last night. My family loves it. It takes time to make though. It also good in that you can add to it if you want. You can add green beans or corn into it or have the vegetable on the side (which is what we did).

Submitted by: Jeannie
Rated: 4 out of 5 by 52 members Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 55 Minutes Ready In: 1 Hour 25 Minutes
Yields: 8 servings

"A rich layered casserole with potatoes, ground beef, onions, cheese, and a luxuriant cream sauce."
INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
1 pint heavy cream salt and pepper to taste
5 potatoes, sliced
2 cups shredded Cheddar

Then go to the bakery section and grab some of these,
