Sixties Marjoram Potato Casserole.Treat yourself to this Sixties Marjoram Potato Casserole and enjoy the beauty of its flavor. This is a great dish for that Sixties party that you will be having or any party that's next on your list try it, you will be very pleased just as I was, when I made it at that very important party of mine.
750 g potatoes
salt
bunch of fresh marjoram (dried otherwise)
250g cream
2 egg yolks
freshly ground pepper
40 g butter
75g ham
(If I want this as a main meal, then I use minced meat and prepare
it the same way I would for Lasagna (ie spicy and rich)
I then just alternate the layers of meat mix and the potato recipe.)
- Wash, peel and slice the potatoes thinly.
- In lightly salted, rolling boiling water, cook for 5 mins.
(sorry about the sentence stucture- I'm translating this from German-
this is an "authentic" Austrian recipe...)
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a sieve.
- Take the Marjoram from the stalks, and chop finely.
- Mix salt, pepper and marjoram with the egg yolks and cream.
- Grease a casserole dish, and place half the potatoes in the form.
- Chop the ham finely, and spread half over the potatoes.
- Sprinkle s and p over the layers.
- Place the rest of the potatoes in the dish, and then pour the
egg mix over the top. Sprinkle with ham, and dot the top with the remainder
of the butter used for greasing the dish.
Cook on 250degrees Celcius (er- Farenheit, ~375) for 30-40 mins, or
until golden on top.
Serve with a green salad dressed with a marjoram/vinegar combination.
Note:
I have made this with basil instead of marjoram (and the same with the
salad) and it was wonderful. To cut down the fat content, I have used
a mustard sauce with chucks of low fat cheese melted into it- also
great!
Most traditional Casserole is this one here, I am sharing this recipe with all of you because I strongly believe its one of the best and of course my favorite try it and see what you think, am sure you and yours friends will be very pleased.

Sixties MENU IDEAS |
|
A Sixties party can be a fun, groovy way to hearken back to one of the most important periods in American history and pop culture. And what would a sixties party be without a sixties menu? The sixties were filled with controversy, new music, new fashion and of course free love. With this sixties menu, one thing won’t be controversial at your sixties party – the food.
Throughout the 60s, cars and cruising were an important part of American life. Nowhere was this more evident than at Drive-In eateries. This makes Drive-In food an excellent choice for the sixties menu at your next sixties party. Drive-Ins were the perfect place to see and be seen in your Mustang, Camaro, Chevelle or maybe even a Volkswagen Beetle.
Your sixties menu should remind guests of these formative times. Serve up cola with a splash of cherry or vanilla syrup. For eats, you can’t go wrong with bacon cheeseburgers, corn dogs, chicken fingers and of course lots of French fries. For authenticity, serve sixties party guests in baskets or paper trays with paper liners. And what better way to top off your sixties menu than with root beer floats, ice cream sundaes and malts?
To make malts at home for your sixties menu, combine three-quarter cup milk with on-quarter cup instant malted milk. Blend at medium speed, stopping blender frequently to scrape sides, until instant malted milk is dissolved. Add 4 cups chocolate ice cream and continue blending, stopping blender frequently to scrape sides, until smooth. Serve immediately to waiting guests. For variety, provide a mix-ins bar with a variety of fruit, nuts and candies for an extra-special dessert.
While the sixties offered many different experiences for those living through it, your sixties menu is certain to bring everyone together to remember the best of this turbulent time. By just adding even one simple food item to the menu will help create
a complete Sixties theme party feeling. |
