Some Old Kajungee Recipes

Went looking through Kajungee's old posts and found these recipes that didn't make it into the cookbook. They will be in the next edition in January. Here they are:

Kajungee's Cucumber Mint Salad

1 large cucumber
1 small onion, chopped fine
1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning

Peel cucumber and chop into 1/4-inch cubes.

Combine all ingredients in bowl and mix.

Kajungee's Sauce for Fish

4 Tbs butter
1 small clove garlic, finely minced
2 Tbs lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
2 tsp capers, drained and rinsed, chopped
1 tsp fresh chopped parsley

In a small skillet over low heat, melt butter; add garlic, lemon juice, zest, and capers. Simmer for 30 seconds. Stir in parsley. Remove from heat.

Kajungee's Cold Crabmeat Dip

1 lb lump crab meat
1 8 oz. package cream cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
Juice of 1 Lemon
dash of cayenne pepper
salt to taste
3 cloves garlic, pressed
Cocktail Sauce
Chopped green onions

Soften cream cheese and combine with mayonnaise, sour cream, Tabasco, Worcestershire, cayenne, salt, garlic, lemon and Old Bay seasoning.

Gently add half the crabmeat. Spread mixture on serving dish. Top with remaining crabmeat then top with cocktail sauce and green onions .


Kajungee's Oreo Cookie Balls

This is where its at.

1 large package Oreo cookies, crushed
1 large bar of Cream Cheese - room temperature
White chocolate for dipping (white almond bark is OK)

Using your food processor, finely crush the Oreo cookies until they are powder fine.

Thoroughly blend in the softened cream cheese.

Roll this Oreo mixture into small bite size balls.

Microwave the white chocolate - watch closely and don't over do it, or it will burn.

Dip each ball into the melted white chocolate and place on wax paper to harden.

Refrigerate.
