Ingredients:

4−6 Cups vegetable oil (in fryer)
1 package Pillsbury apple or cherry turnovers
(Find them in the refrigerated section)

 Method

1. Unroll the Pillsbury turnover dough. You will have six 3″x3″
pieces. You will use four of them. Stretch them out to about 4″x5″
rectangles. Do this on waxed paper.
2. Spread 1/2 of the pie filling on one dough, and the other half on
another, leaving about 1/2″ of dough around edges. Clear a 3/4″ space
lengthwise down the middle of both.
3. Place the remaining two doughs on top of the two with the filling.
Crimp the edges. You’ll have what looks like two giant pop−tarts.
4. Cut both of them precisely down the middle, in that 3/4″ space you
created. Crimp those two edges.
5. Manipulate as needed to form an attractive, uniform shaped pie.
They should look like small burritos, only crimped around the edges.
6. Place all four, flat on waxed paper, in the freezer. After about
45 minutes, spray all sides of each pie with water mist. Return to
the freezer for at least another hour.
7. Place in a freezer bag and seal for future use, or get ready to
deep−fry them.

    mandarinpancakes.jpg

    Ingredients:

    2 cups flour
    3/4 cup boiling water
    2 tablespoons sesame oil

    Method

    1. Place flour in a bowl. Add boiling water, stirring with chopsticks or a
    fork until dough is evenly moistened. On a lightly floured board, knead
    dough until smooth and satiny, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 30
    minutes.
    2. On a lightly floured board, roll dough into a cylinder; cut into 16 equal
    pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten slightly into a pancake.
    Brush top of each pancake with a light coating of sesame oil.
    3. Place 1 pancake on top of a second pancake, oiled sides together. With a
    rolling pin, roll to make a circle 6 inches in diameter. Stack and roll
    remaining pairs of pancakes the same way. Cover with a damp cloth to
    prevent drying.

    Cooking

    1. Place a nonstick frying pan over lm heat until hot. Add 1 pair of pancakes
    and cook, turning once, until lightly browned and bubbles appear on the
    surface, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and separate
    into 2 pancakes while still hot. Stack cooked pancakes on a plate while
    cooking remaining pairs of pancakes.
    2. Serve pancakes hot. If making ahead, reheat pancakes in a microwave
    oven or wrap in a clean dish towel and steam in a bamboo steamer for
    5 minutes.

    pocketsandwich.jpg

    Ingredients:

    2 Puff pastry sheets −; (to 3)
    1/2 Pound Mozzarella cheese
    1/2 Pound Cheddar cheese
    1 Pound Broccoli spears
    1 Pound Thinly−sliced boiled ham
    1 Pound Thinly−sliced roast beef
    2 Cup Tomato sauce
    1/2 Pound Pepperoni
    2 Eggs
    2 Tablespoon Water

    Method

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the puff pastry into desired shapes,
    (making sure you have two pieces that are alike to build the sandwich).
    Using a box grater, grate each cheese. Slice the broccoli into thin slices.
    Place what ever type of filling you wish in the center of one piece of puff
    pastry, like ham and cheese, or tomato sauce, pepperoni and cheese, or
    broccoli and cheese (fill each pocket with a good amount of the filling).
    Place the other piece of puff pastry on top of the filling. Using your
    hands, lightly press the pastry around the filling. Using a fork, press the
    ends of the pastry together. This will seal the pockets tightly. In a mixing
    bowl, whisk the eggs and water together. Place the pockets on a
    parchment−lined baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush each
    pocket. Bake until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

    Ingredients:

    2 cups milk, scalded and cooled
    2 packages quick rising yeast
    1/2 cup warm water (105F)
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/2 cup buckwheat flour
    2 cups all−purpose flour
    3 eggs, separated
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3 tablespoons sour cream
    3 tablespoons melted butter, cooled; plus more for cooking
    1 1/2 cups additional milk

    Method

    Put the yeast in water and add sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes,
    then stir to dissolve the yeast.
    In an electric mixer combine the scalded (cooled) milk, yeast
    mixture, both flours, the egg yolks only, salt, sour cream,
    and melted butter. Mix thoroughly. Beat the egg whites until
    they form soft peaks and gently fold into the batter. Allow
    to rise for 30 minutes, and then stir in additional milk.
    Heat an electric skillet to 400F, or a large frying pan on
    medium high. Brush the pan with a bit of butter and fry the
    pancakes using 3 tablespoons of batter for each. They should
    be about 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Cook until golden and
    turn. Serve with lumpfish caviar and/or sour cream.
