Yields: 4 servings
"Baked tilapia seasoned with Cajun and citrus served with a creamy sauce of fresh dill and lemon."
Fish
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning,
or to taste
2 lemons, thinly sliced circles
minced garlic
1/4 cup lemon juice
2-3 TBS olive oil

2. Dip both sides of tilapia fillets in lemon juice, and season with salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning on both sides.
3. Arrange the seasoned fillets in a single layer in the baking dish. Place a layer of 2 lemon slices over each the fish fillets, to cover the fish. Poke holes in the lemon slices with a knife to allow juice to seep into the fish
4. Bake uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
5. While the fish is baking, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream (yogurt), garlic powder, lemon juice and dill in a small bowl. Serve with tilapia.
Notes:
a. You can eliminate the milchig dill sauce and just add dill to the seasonings atop the fish
b. You can substitute extra lemon juice on top instead of lemon circles.
c. You can eliminate the yogurt/sour cream and just use mayo for the sauce, although we haven't tried this yet.

Shabbat Day K'li Sh'lishi Gravy
-before Shabbat, pour off the gravy from your chicken or meat into a fleishig container
-On Shabbat day, pour a few oz water from the urn/kettle on the blech (k'li rishon) into a in a cup (k'li sheni), then pour from the cup into a bowl (k'li sh'lishi)
-Take gelled gravy from fridge, mix into k'li sh'lishi for Mutar L'Kol Day'ot Gravy. This is mutar because "K'li Sh'lishi Ayno M'Vashel"--liquid transfered to a third vessel does not cook anything.
-if you make and serve this, make sure to explain the halachic permissibility so your guests don't think you're not Shomer Shabbat, posul l'edut etc. :)

Garlic Oregano Chicken
1/4 cup Olive oil (or water, or double lemon juice for low fat)
1/4 cup Lemon juice
6+ Cloves garlic; minced
1/4 ts Salt
1 TBS Oregano
1/2 ts Pepper
-Mix ingredients in a bowl. If you used fresh garlic,make sure to crush the minced
pieces after they are cut; this brings out more flavor
-The day before cooking, place chicken in large Ziploc bag, and pour liquid mixture
into the bag.
Seal tightly, and put a paper towel under it just in case.
-place bag o' chicken in fridge, turning a few times you cook/grill it
-grill for 30 mins, or cook at 375F for 30 mins
- if cooking, baste after 30 mins, then return to oven for an additional 30 mins
-baste when done, seal tightly with aluminum foil
Notes:
a. pour off the liquid before Shabbat, and make K'li Sh'lishi Gravy,
or broil for a few minutes to evaporate the liquid
Honey Mustard Chicken
Honey Mustard Chicken
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup mustard (we use brown, but yellow could work in theory)
1 ts paprika
1 ts dried parsley
1/2 ts dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
1 pack of chicken (any cut)
-mix spices, honey & mustard in bowl
-skin chicken
-pour liquid mixture on chicken
-bake at 375F for 30 mins
-baste with liquid at bottom of pan
-return to oven for 30 mins, then baste again
-cover tightly with aluminum foil for storage/reheating
Notes:
a. For Shabbat Day, reduce liquids to 1/3 cup honey and 1/3 cup mustard; leave the seasonings the same. You'll still have to drain all the liquid before Shabbat, because you cannot reheat liquid that is not directly from the meat, but less is wasted. Or, you can broil the chicken for a few minutes to evaporate the liquid.
b. In order not to waste the gravy, save it in a container. On Shabbat day, make DaniyO's K'li Sh'lishi Gravy:

Charoset Hoffman Style
-approx 2 bags ground ground filberts
-approx 2 bags ground almonds almonds
-10 Macintosh Apples, peeled (or unpeeled, in theory)
-Cinnamon
-Manishevitz Malaga wine or Kedem Grape Juice
1. Peel & quarter apples, put in food processor to make little strings or cubes
2. mix everything in bowl, to taste; it should have a moist appearance, not have a grainy consistency. If this occurs, you added too much nuts, and should add more apples and wine
3. we usually use most of a 32 oz Malaga wine in the recipe
Notes:
a. you can also mix the wine and grape juice for a less intoxicating mush
b. be careful driving after eat a lot of this...it'll make your Blood Alcohol Content rise and may impair driving reflexes. 5 oz of (wine) alcohol takes 1 hour to leave you system.. No amount of any other food or water will hasten this. :)

DaniyO's Flavored Formerly Plain Yogurts
1. Vanilla Yogurt
-32 oz container of Dannon Plain Yogurt (whole or lowfat)
-1/3 cup Splenda minus a couple of tea spoons
-2+ ts vanilla extract
In a medium sized (64 oz?) mixing bowl, mix either by hand or with a mixer
vary vanilla to taste
put back in original container
2. Coffee Yogurt
-32 oz container of Dannon Plain Yogurt (whole or lowfat)
-1/3 cup Splenda
-7 ts Folgers decaffeinated coffee (caffeinated could be used too, in theory)
-2 oz water
-heat water in microwave in a glass or stovetop kettle
-spoon coffee into glass with hot water (or into 64 mixing bowl with hot water)
-add splenda, mix the liquid together
-add container of yogurt, mix by hand or with a mixer
-try some in a small bowl (it won't fit back into the original container since there's extra liquid)
-return yogurt mix to original yogurt container
Notes
a. The reason for the water is that the coffee crystals won't dissolve properly in the yogurt itself, even with electric mixing. If you don't use water, you get little sharp zings of coffee and a tasteless rest of the bowl
b. Fun variations:
-Mocha: add a couple of teaspoons of sugar-free chocolate syrup (such as Walden Farms) to each serving, and poof! You've got mocha coffee
-Cappucino: add a couple of shakes of ts cinnamon to a serving for cappuccino, or 1/4 to 1/2 ts to the whole container
3. DaniyO's Chocolate - Peanut Butter Yogurt
-8 oz/1 serving of Dannon Plain Yogurt (whole or lowfat)
-2 ts Splenda
-1+ TBS room temperature all-natural smooth peanut butter (Shoprite brand works well)
-1+ TBS sugar free chocolate syrup (such as Walden Farms)
-ground flax seed or wheat germ to taste
-Mix in bowl. Eat.
Notes:
a. I haven't tried this in full container mode--you'll need a larger container than the original, since the PB takes up room. Multiply all ingredients by at least 4 to do this (1 serving of yogurt = 8 oz; 32 oz container) You'll need to eat a serving before returning to the larger container so it will fit.
b. this works best when the peanut butter isn't refrigerated. Natural PB takes months to spoil since its just peanuts and salt, and mixes better when its at room-temperature
c. variation: skip the chocolate syrup, try adding chocolate chips

Salmon Patties
Canned salmon
seasoned bread crumbs
scallions (I use onion powder, too lazy)
1 tsp ginger per can of salmon
eggs
Dijon mustard
pepper
salt
oil
In a mixing bowl, combine salmon (pick out bones), bread crumbs, scallions (onion powder), ginger, eggs, mustard, pepper, and salt. Mix well. Form into small patties.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high flame. Reduce flame to medium, and saute the patties for about 4 minutes on each side.
NOTE: Each large can of salmon (usually 14.75 oz) will make about 6 patties. Use a lot of mustard for better taste!

Pearl's Challah that tastes like cake
4 cups warm water
4 oz fresh yeast
1 tbsp sugar
5 lb high gluten flour
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 tbsp salt
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups canola oil
Preheat oven 300. combine water, yeast and tbsp sugar in a bowl (don't use plastic). Put bowl on open oven door for at least 10 min.
Put flour in huge bowl. Remove 1 cup of flour. Add sugar and salt. Mix. Push the flour to the side and leave a well in the center.
Pour the yeast mixture, eggs and oil into the well. Mix well.
Knead the dough. Add more flour if it's too sticky.
Oil the top of the dough and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. The dough will need to rise now. Either I leave it in the oven (turned off) for a few hours or I leave it in the fridge overnight.
When the dough is ready, you will need to separate Challah with a Bracha. Take a handful of dough and say "Harai zeh challah." Then make the bracha "Baruch atah Hashem Alokeinu melech haolam asher kidishanu bmitzvosav vitzivanu lihafrish challah." This portion of dough must be burned (I put it in the broiler).
Now make your Challahs. Let the Challahs rise again for at least an hour in their individual pans. Then brush them with a mixture of 1 egg plus some brown sugar. Bake at 350 for about 25 min until golden brown.

Cucumber Salad
Modified from Spice and Spirit Cook Book
3 to 4 cucumbers (I prefer not using using Curbys for this)
1 Tbsp salt
1 small onion
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 Tbsp. Sugar (I use splenda)
Dash pepper
Peel cucumbers and slice very thin. Place slices in bowl and sprinkle with salt. Allow to stand for 30 minutes or longer. Squeeze water out of cucumber slices and put in a bowl.
Slice onion into thin rings and put in bowl with cucumbers. Add remaining ingredients, mix well, and refrigerate several hours before serving. (It usually tastes better the day after you make it).

10 potatoes (I use red ones), shredded
6 eggs
2 onions, diced
