A quick report on the birthday breakfast which was a great success.
The tropical fruit platter was a treat followed by the baked dish
called 'Xmas morning Wifesaver'. OJ and champagne toasted the 3
birthdays.
This sort of dish is unusual in Australia and was a hit. I prepared it
the night before - basically slices of bread in an oven proof glass
dish and layered with slices of proscuitto (recipe specified thin
smoked bacon I think) then tasty cheese slices, another bread layer.
Pour over a mix of beaten eggs, seasonings, worc. sauce, minced onion,
green bell pepper, tabasco, milk, little cream. Leave in fridge
overnight then bake for 1 hr. I was impressed that it had such low fat
content (no greasing dish even). It was soooo delicious!
Will certainly keep this recipe in my book for guests staying over. We
actually put it in the oven on automatic and went for a walk down the
beach whilst it was cooking!
Cheers
Bronwyn

Could you please send the recipe?
I think that is a sort of Croque monsieur, a french recipe.
But I Am not sure.
Cheers

Considering the amount of forethought and planning you've given the day, I'm
sure the remainder will be just as successful. Did you make the bread for
the prawn salad sandwiches you planned for lunch?

Bob

No, didn't make the bread this time. (It took the best part of Friday
to do all the cooking mentioned previously. )But the planning paid off
as the weekend was relaxing for me. Bought the fresh tiger prawns on
Sat. morning and just assembled the sandwiches before we ate.
Delicious too.
I'll post the recipe below for the Indian Yoghurt, banana and coconut
cake as that was sensational too.
Pandora, for the breakfast dish, just do a search on this group for
'Christmas wife saver' and it will come up.

INDIAN YOGURT BANANA CAKE
Ingredients:

80g desiccated coconut, toasted
125g ghee or clarified butter or unsalted butter
150g caster sugar
40g brown sugar
2 large eggs
3 medium large bananas, very ripe
200g thick plain yoghurt
250g self raising flour (cake flour)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
200g sour cream or creme fraiche
100g icing sugar (powdered sugar)
50g toasted shredded coconut

# Preheat your oven to 190ºC. Remove the base from a 22-24cm non-stick
springform tin and place a piece of baking paper (such as 'Glad Bake'😉
over the top. Replace the sides of the tin, causing the paper to form a
false base. Grease the tin and pour in the toasted desiccated coconut.
Tip the tin all around to coat the greased sides with the coconut, then
pour out the excess and reserve for the cake batter.
# Beat the ghee and sugars in a bowl until creamy, then add the eggs,
one at a time, beating well after each addition. Meanwhile, mash the
bananas.
# Remove the bowl from the mixer, then add the mashed bananas, yoghurt,
flour, cinnamon, spice and remaining coconut and stir thoroughly with a
wooden spoon until all ingredients are well combined and no floury
areas remain.
# Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and gently smooth the top.
# Bake at 190ºC for 55 minutes, or until firm and 'springy' when
depressed in the centre of the cake.
# Remove from the oven, allow to cool for 15 minutes, then remove the
sides of the tin and cool completely.
# When cool, remove the base and baking paper and place the cake on a
platter.
# To make the icing, mix together the sour cream and icing sugar until
thick and spreadable, then spread over the top of the cool cake. Pour
the shredded coconut over the cream, until thickly covered.

Note from Bronwyn - I cooked the cake in a large springform ring tin
and didn't line the base (because it was rounded) with paper. It worked
out just fine, I just greased it with butter and shook the coconut
around it. It came out of the tin easily.
Sorry the recipe is only in metric. Holler if you need more translation.

I'd call it more of a description than a recipe. She asked nicely.
Why did you feel the need to respond so rudely? Just curious.

Here, Pandora, is the recipe I used a lot back when I was cooking more.
Maybe I'll make this for Christmas morning. :-)

Dams, thanks for the recipe. I'll bet TFM would love this. Cheese, eggs
and bacon are his favorite grinds.
