Mozambican Chili Chicken Wings

16 medium sized chicken wings
1 cup chili dip
1 tablespoon salt
Vegetable Oil for shallow frying
Large frying pan

Put wings in a large stainless steel bowl and salt very well. Pour half the cup of the dip into the bow and rub into meat with your hands. Leave to marinade for 2 hours. Fry wings in hot oil over a medium flame. The wings should be fried on both sides until crispy. When all the wings are cooked, transfer them into a serving dish and pour remaining half cup of chili dip over the wings.

Mozambican Chili Dip

4 Tablespoons crushed red chilies
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
125 ml vegetable oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons salt

Place all above ingredients into a blender and whiz until smooth. The chili dip keeps for months in the fridge.

Turkey Chili

3 lb ground lean turkey
2 T olive oil
2 onions chopped
1 can 28 oz solid pk tomatoes roughly chopped with liquid
1 can 14 oz chopped tomatoes
1 pk commercial chili seasoning mix (about 1 ½ oz) make sure no msg
1 12 oz bottle Mexican beer
1 oz unsweetened dark chocolate
2 15 oz cans kidney beans rinsed
2 T chili powder
2 T powdered oregano
3 T cumin
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp white pepper

Brown turkey and drain off fat. Sautee onions in olive oil until soft. Add turkey, tomatoes, seasoning pk, beer, bring to boil. Add chocolate and turn down heat to simmer. Stir in remaining spices. Add kidney beans. Turn heat to low and cook for about two hrs. stirring occasionally. If chili is to liquid, cook uncovered for a while. Continue to stir. Serve chili with bowls of chopped red onion, chopped cilantro and grated aged cheddar.

Note: Make sure spices are fresh. Especially chili powder, which tends to lose flavor when old.

Sausage Rolls with Worcestershire Sauce

12 ounces lean ground pork or veal
1/2 medium onion, chopped
3/4 cup diced cooked potato
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons crushed dried sage leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 17 1/4-ounce package frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, well beaten
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine the pork, onion, potato, parsley, sage, salt, pepper and pepper flakes. Mix with a fork to combine. Transfer the mixture to a large pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip. Unfold the puff pastry sheets and, following the fold marks, cut each sheet into three rectangles. Roll out slightly. Pipe the sausage mixture along one long edge of each of the pastry rectangles. Paint the opposite edges with some of the beaten egg. Starting at the edge with the sausage mixture, roll up each rectangle, gently pressing the egg-painted edge to seal. Using a sharp knife, cut the rolls into slices about 1 1/2 inches thick. Arrange them on a broiler pan or a wire rack set on top of a baking sheet. Brush the slices with the remaining beaten egg and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden. Serve the slices warm with the Worcestershire sauce on the side for dipping. Makes about 50 pieces.

Pasta Fagioli

8 ounces dry cannellini or Great Northern beans
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
4 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 tablespoons minced parsley, plus 1 tablespoon, chopped, for garnish
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
4 fresh sage leaves
2 bay leaves
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 beef bouillon cube, crumbled
2 cups small pasta, such as pastina
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup thinly sliced basil
Grated imported Parmesan cheese

Soak the beans in enough water to cover overnight. Drain the beans, rinse with cold water, drain again. Place in a large pot with the potatoes, tomatoes, celery, parsley, garlic, thyme, sage, bay leaves, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and bouillon. Add enough water to cover the ingredients with 2 inches on top and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours, setting the pot lid ajar after 30 minutes and stirring occasionally. Return the soup to a boil and add the pasta. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the soup to a terrine or serving bowl. Drizzle the last tablespoon of oil over soup. Sprinkle basil and parsley on soup and serve with Parmesan cheese on the side. Serves 4

Note: Alternatively, cook the pasta separately, then place it in the bottom of soup bowls before serving the soup.
