It takes a while to cook. from Australian Good Taste Jun 2002 american editing in parentheses http://www.grouprecipes.com/1822/lamb-shanks-with-dates-and-squash.html Adapted from an old Bon Appetit. Feeds 4. (Or 2 when I use half the chicken, I use the same amount of everything else.) Can be made with more or less garlic, more or less or no pepper flakes. Enjoy the garlic smell throughout the house. http://www.grouprecipes.com/1692/spicy-chicken-with-tomatoes-garlic-and-marjoram.html I love beets (beetroots to Australians). This is a fast pasta dish using beets. This is supposed to feed 4 main course or 6 appetizers. As the lone beet appreciator in our household, I generally make a half batch with 1 large or 3 or 4 small beets and keep it in the fridge, eating it over several days. (Note this recipe is from Bon Appetit a couple of years ago) http://www.grouprecipes.com/1691/beet-pasta.html
