Chicken and Sweet Potato Hash

(Adapted from Fine Cooking and via Food Hound)
Serves 4
3 slices bacon, sliced lardon (matchstick) style
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and diced
1 c chicken broth
2 T unsalted butter
2 c chopped cooked chicken or turkey
1 T chopped fresh parsley
1 T maple syrup
2 tsp chopped rosemary
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Dash of Tobasco, hot sauce, or red chili flakes
Kosher salt
1. Cook bacon in a 10" skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a medium bowl. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the sweet potato, broth and butter to the onions. Simmer, uncovered, until the sweet potatoes are barely tender, about 6 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, mix the chicken or turkey, parsley, maple syrup, rosemary, pepper and Tobasco with the bacon.
3. When the potatoes are barely tender, add the meat mixture to the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, firmly patting the hash down and then occasionally flipping, scraping the bottom of the pan with a metal spatula and patting down again, until the broth has completely evaporated and the hash is nicely browned, about 8 minutes (reduce heat if the hash is browning too quickly). Season to taste with salt, pepper and hot sauce.

Can fresh cooked pumpkin be used and if yes, approx how much?.

Pumpkins in England are only available around Halloween. Must folk just use them for lanterns and don't know what to do whith the flesh.

I make batches of soup and freeze it.
 
VERY EASY NO BAKE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE...

Ingredients
150g (5 oz) digestive biscuits
45g (1 1/2 oz) butter
110g (4 oz) caster sugar, divided
120ml whipping cream
150g (5 oz) dark chocolate, melted and cooled
2 tablespoons cocoa powder mixed with a little hot water
1 (200g) tub cream cheese
Method
Crush the digestive biscuits and mix with the melted butter and 1 tablespoon of the caster sugar. Press into a 18cm (7 in) cake tin and refrigerate.
Whip cream until soft peak stage. Add cooled melted chocolate, then the cocoa powder mix. Blend well and set aside.
Beat the cream cheese and remaining sugar together. Fold in cream/chocolate mixture and mix thoroughly.
Spread into tin on top of crushed biscuits. Freeze for one hour.
Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, then serve

This is absolutely stunning, but I changed the dark chocolate for milk and used Cadbury's drinking chocolate instead of cocoa powder.

Just hope hubby does not eat the rest of it through the night. :rolleyes:

THE MOST DANGEROUS CAKE RECIPE
5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
a small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high).
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!

Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?

Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!
You are going to print this out straight away, aren't you

I am sure i don't need to tell you this but i will any way because it is IMPORTANT
Please wash your hands thoroughly after handling the chili's and do not under any circumstance put you fingers near you face or any other sensitive part until you have because the chili juice will cause you eyes , nose , mouth or whatever you have touched burn. Been there done that it not nice.

Hope you like this. I have a recipe for just a hunan sauce as well.
