KITTENCAL'S FRIED BOLOGNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Slice each of the buns in half, then spread each side with about 2 teaspoons butter (can use more).
• Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray or melt 1-2 tablespoons butter in the skillet until melted.
• Place the buns on the skillet buttered side down; leave untouched in the skillet for 1-2 minutes or until browned; remove to a plate and spread brown mustard on one or both sides of the buns (over the butter).
• Fry the bologna slices in the same skillet with a slit cut in the middle to prevent it from curling while frying turning once after it had developed that slighty burnt crispy coating on one side.
• Turn the slices over and place a slice (or two) of Swiss cheese on top, then continue to cook until the underneath part is browned and the cheese on top has melted; remove from skillet or griddle, then place the slices of cooked bologna onto each bun the top with onion slices then cover with the top part of bun.
• Delicious!

KITTENCAL'S FRIED EGGPLANT SLICES (VEGETARIAN)

Steps:

• Cut the peeled eggplant into about 1/2-inch thick slices.
• In a shallow bowl whisk eggs with water.
• In another shallow bowl combine breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, seasoned salt and black pepper.
• Heat about 3/4 to 1-inch of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (the oil should be hot before adding in the slices).
• Dip the eggplant slices firstly into the egg mixture, then coat both sides with breadcrumb mixture.
• Place the slices into the hot oil and fry only until light golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side (after frying one eggplant you may need to add in more oil to the skillet).
• Remove to a large serving plate (these are best when served right away).

KITTENCAL'S JUICY HAMBURGER/BURGER

Steps:

• In a bowl crumble the ground beef with clean hands.
• Add in the dry soup mix, egg, garlic, breadcrumbs or crushed soda cracker crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and hot sauce (if using).
• Using clean hands mix until combined, add in more breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs if needed to just hold the mixture together (do not overwork the meat or it will be tough).
• Divide the ground beef into 6 equal patties (or make 8 small patties).
• Using your large finger or the back of a small spoon make a shallow dent into the center of each patty (about 1-inch wide).
• Place the patties onto a large plate or a small cookie sheet; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours or up to 24 hours to blend flavors.
• Grill or pan fry the burgers as desired until cooked through (if desired sprinkle a small amount of seasoned salt on top while cooking the patties).
• Serve burgers in toasted buns with choice of condiments.
• TIPS FOR EXTRA JUICINESS; shape the hamburger into a ball, press 1 tablespoon cold butter into the middle then seal the meat around the ball then flatten into burger shapes ----or add in 2-4 tablespoons raw finely grated potato into the hamburger mixture then shape into patties, use no more than 4 tablespoons for 2 pounds of ground beef or the burgers will take on a meatloaf texture.

KITTENCAL'S BEST DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice the eggs in half lengthwise; remove the yolks, and set whites aside.
• In a small bowl, mush yolks well with a fork, leaving no small lumps.
• Add next 10 ingredients (adjusting to suit taste) mix well to combine.
• Spoon or pipe egg yolk mixture evenly into the whites.
• Sprinkle with paprika.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap.
• Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve (if not making the yolk mixture a day ahead it is best to prepare the eggs and refrigerate for about 5 hours before serving this will give the flavors a chance to blend and intensify).

KITTENCAL'S SUB/SANDWICH BUNS

Steps:

• Prepare a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with a kneader attachment.
• Place about 3-1/2 cups flour in the bowl.
• Melt the shortening in the microwave; add to the bowl with the flour.
• In a measuring cup, measure out 1 cup milk, then add in 4 tablespoons sugar and the salt; heat until quite warm in the microwave, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt.
• Pour the milk into the bowl with the melted shortening and flour; cover the bowl with a towel to keep ingredients warm.
• Proof the yeast in a 3/4 cup warm water with 1 teaspoon sugar for about 8-10 minutes or until foamy.
• After proofing, add to the bowl and start kneading for about 3-4 minutes, then add in more flour as needed to create a soft semi-sticky dough, knead about 8 more minutes until smooth.
• Place the dough on a very lightly floured counter or board; let rest for 5-10 minutes, covered with a clean tea towel.
• Grease a large bowl, then place the dough into bowl to rise in a warm place for about 50-60 minutes (because of the amount of yeast, the dough should take a shorter rising time in a warm place).
• Punch down dough.
• Cut into pieces (I usually cut into 6 pieces), and shape large balls.
• Let dough balls rest for about 4 minutes (or just enough time to make shaping easier).
• Shape the dough into desired length for buns.
• Sprinkle a large cookie/baking sheet with cornmeal, or lightly grease with cooking spray.
• Place the long pieces of dough on a baking sheet (shape once again if you need to).
• Cover and let rise for about 25 minutes, or until doubled.
• Set oven to 375 degrees.
• Bake for about 22-25 minutes, or until dark golden brown.
• If desired after the second rising and just before baking, beat one egg white with 1 teaspoon cold water, then brush on buns and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

KITTENCAL'S ITALIAN MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Shape into small meatballs (at this point you can place on a jelly-roll/baking sheet and freeze to use later, or cover with plastic wrap refrigerate up to 24 hours before using).
• Drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce, do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs.
• Continue cooking in the simmering sauce for another 20 minutes (depending on how fast your sauce is simmering 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs).
• After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
• **note** you may also bake the meatballs at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cooked through.
