Brr. Winter is nearly here in Australia and the past few days have shown it! When the sun’s out it’s nice but when it’s not it can feel quite cold. The trend is set to continue this week, with tomorrow only reaching a top of 12*C in my suburb. Bet my hometown’s colder!
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a recipe post. I have been cooking – just haven’t been able to write them down. I want to fix that but it’s a work in progress…at the bottom of my priority pile atm. Anyway.
Makes my mouth water just looking at it!
A while ago – as in, about a month ago – I spent the day with my boyfriend. We decided to have parmigiana for dinner – but as I pointed out, we’d had chicken as part of our lunch. So we used a beef schnitzel base instead. Then my boyfriend had the idea of using tomato salsa instead of plain tomato sauce/paste. It turned into a very yummy dinner.
Ingredients:
- Veggies, to serve with the parma
- Beef schnitzels
- Tomato salsa/paste
- Cheese – we used pre-packaged grated tasty cheese
- Other flavours if you want, especially if using tomato paste not salsa – saw a recipe online where someone added onion to theirs & seasoned it with salt & pepper
Tools:
- Frying pan
- Oven dish
- Spatula
- Tongs
Method:
- Fry beef schnitzels to pre-cook them
- When finished, remove from pan and place in oven dish (preheat oven to 180*C)
- Spread tomato salsa thickly over schnitzels, then top with the cheese – remember that you want the salsa and cheese flavours to be balanced with each other
- Place oven dish in oven and cook for 30 mins or until it looks done
- Cook veggies while this occurs, though you’ll probably start them partway through the schnitzel-cooking time. We used peas, carrots and potato, but you can use any veggies you like.
- When cooked, assemble onto plates.
- Eat and enjoy!
Mine, all mine…. so good.
