Hi steemit friends,
It s picnic time…for Steemit Culinary Challenge:)
Thanks to our guest judge @rebeccaryan , my kids had a lovely Sunday picnic. They also got to pick tangerine and vegetables from the garden. I guess that is a true life lesson for them.
I have made bear burgers, beef cheese balls ,garlic breads, rainbow salad cup and cake pops(was made last week)..
first lets start with my kids favorite bear burgers!
ingredients needed
2 homemade wholemeal burger buns
fresh lettuce and tomato from garden
premium quality beef mince (for patty)
half chopped onion (for patty)
1tsp olive oil(for patty)
garlic salt, 1tsp corn flour and pepper(for patty)
tomato sauce,dijon mustard
cheese,nori and sausage for decoration
I always make burger patties myself, it is easy and yummy...
Place all ingredients for patty in a bowl, add in garlic salt, olive oil, chopped onion , cornflour and pepper, mix it all up using your clean hands(with food grade glove ) until it changes consistency. they shape into patties with the help from burger maker(it saves tons of time when you making dozens of patties), cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (or you may frozen all of them and cook when you need..it can last for few months).
now get to the steps of put bear burgers together. cut few circles from cheese, sausage and nori, use salad sauce stick them to the bread. I also used toothpick to help with the ears...
bake the patties in 325F degrees oven for 15 minutes(from frozen).. spread the lightly toasted burger buns with dijon mustard . top with fresh lettuce, tomato,patties and tomato sauce...
It looks cute? Need another picture of it? haha
now lets get to the meat cheese balls with my garlic bread
ingredients
300g premium beef mince
1 chopped onion and some garlic
1 piece homemade wholemeal bread
1 cup mixed eden cheese and mozzarella cheese
11/2 tbs fish sauce
2tbs lemon juice
Some bread crumbs
Fresh pizza thyme and basil from garden
Some garlic salt, sugar, white pepper and black pepper
2tbs corn flour (optional if you want firm texture)
45ml olive oil
method
use blender to mix everything together for a very shot period.. and sharp it to meat balls, bake it at 425F degrees for 15 minutes
for the garlic bread you will need a home made french bread.
mix 3 table spoon butter with some freshly mince garlic and 1tsb garlic salt, and spread it over the french bread... oven for 3 minutes at 375F degree would be perfectly golden! wrap it with Aluminium Foil Paper to keep it warm...
it is the picnic look of the meat ball and garlic bread:)
kids picked some tangerine form the garden for the picnic
they also had salad cups which I misplaced the detailed picture, you may cut all colorful fruit and vegetables , top with cheese powder and home made salad sauce.....easy packing for the picnic and party...
