Blah etc. and everything else

This is a recipe I got from fifth grade; I remember this tasting very good and earning a lot of praise form the judge teachers. I’ve been looking for this recipe for a long time actually, and when my dad started cleaning the storage area he found the book that contained it. Now I’m posting it here so I don’t lose it again. Hehe and hopefully whip up a batch that tasted just as good as it did when I was in fifth grade.

But if I remember correctly, we did a lot of tweaking that time. Anyway here’s the recipe.

MORNAY EGGS

Ingredients

2 oz. Butter or Margarine

1tbsp onion finely chopped

4 pcs eggs (hard cooked)

2 oz mushroom (chopped)

1 oz Flour

½ pint Milk

2 oz Cheddar Cheese

green peas

Procedure

Egg Stuffing

1. Melt half the butter or margarine in a saucepan, and then add the onions and mushrooms. Cook until soft. Add salt and pepper to taste.
2. Halve the eggs lengthwise and remove the yolks and mash.
3. Stir the mashed yolks into the mushroom mixture. Stuff this into the eggs.

Cream topping

1. Melt the remaining butter and then add the flour.
2. Stir in the milk while bringing to a boil and simmer for one minute. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Stir in the cheese until it melts.
4. Let the sauce cool and pour over the eggs.
5. Garnish with peas.

This other recipe I just invented earlier. My mom wasn’t sure what to do with the shrimp so I decided to do a little controlled cooking experiment. It turned out great.

Ingredients

2 tbsp chopped garlic

3 tbsp chopped onions

2 medium sized kalamansi

4 pcs Large Shrimp (around 4 inches in length with head)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 tbsp Butter

1. Skin the shrimp. Remove all traces of Shell.
2. Cut the shrimp lengthwise without fully separating the pieces.
3. Cut crosswise into smaller pieces
4. Season with salt pepper and the juice of one kalamansi.
5. Melt the butter over low heat on a pan. Before all the butter melts add the garlic.
6. After a few seconds add the onion and let stand for about a minute.
7. Add the shrimp and cook until orange and tender.
8. You could add a sprig of chopped young onion to taste, and for looks.

Wahahahaha I’ve been obsessed with food because my parents won’t be around for three weeks and I’m going to have to fend for myself; probably the same reason why my Dad’s forcing me to go to the market to buy ingredients and cook the food. Well maybe I’ll have to live off hotdogs for three weeks, or these two recipes. Hehehe
