• 2 tablespoons salted butter*
• 6 cloves garlic , finely diced
• 1 pound (500 g) shrimp (or prawns) -- tails on or off
• 1 small yellow onion , diced
• 1/2 cup white wine (OPTIONAL)
• 5 oz (150 g) jarred sun dried tomato strips in oil, drained
• 1 3/4 cups half and half (or milk -- reduced fat, skim or full fat milk)* *SEE NOTES
• Salt and pepper , to taste
• 3 cups baby spinach leaves
• 2/3 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese (do not include for dairy free option)
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch (cornflour) mixed with 1 tablespoons of water (optional)***
• 2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley , chopped

Instructions
1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter and add in the garlic and fry until fragrant (about one minute). Add in the shrimp and fry two minutes on each side, until just cooked through and pink. Transfer to a bowl; set aside.
2. Fry the onion in the butter remaining in the skillet. Pour in the white wine (if using), and allow to reduce slightly. Add the sun dried tomatoes and fry for 1-2 minutes to release their flavours.
3. Reduce heat to low-medium heat, add the half and half and bring to a gentle simmer, while stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
4. Add in the spinach leaves and allow to wilt in the sauce, and add in the parmesan cheese. Allow sauce to simmer for a further minute until cheese melts through the sauce. (For a thicker sauce, add the milk/cornstarch mixture to the centre of the pan, and continue to simmer while quickly stirring the mixture through until the sauce thickens.)
5. Add the shrimp back into the pan; sprinkle with the herbs and parsley, and stir through.
6. Serve over pasta, rice or steamed veg.

Recipe for Banana Bread & Butter rolls

Banana Bread first


Ingrediments:
For about 3 pans of banana bread:
5 cups of flour.
1 tablespoon and a half of baking powder a tablespoon and a half of baking soda
1 tablespoon of salt
2 cups butter melted before mixing
3 cups Brown sugar
5 tsp of vanilla 1 1/2 tbsp
4 eggs
6 to 8 mashed bananas,

Now Ingrediments for just 1 pans (or 2 small pans) of banana bread.

1 1/2cups flour
1 tsp baking soda,
just a pinch of salt
1/2 cup butter (melted before mix)
1 cup sugar (brown or white)
1.5-2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
3 smashed bananas
And then using the same directions.

Directions:

Mix it all together throw it in the pans bake at 350* for about 45-50 minutes and then 325* till pau.
Stick it with a real long toothpick to verify that it's all cooked throughout.



Butter Rolls:
Ingrediments:
3 cup Water
2 tbs Salt
1/2 cup Yeast
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cup Flower
more salt 2 tbs
Yeast milk

Directions:
Add the water, salt & yeast then
stir thoroughly with a whisker
Then in a separate bowl Add the Flower & salt then
again dry stir thoroughly with a whisker
Then add vegetable oil
Then add 3 cups of yeast milk
then kneed with your hands until thoroughly mixed.
Then kneed on a cutting board large enough to kneed bread.
spread flower on the board for non stick.
Then kneed the bread
then put the bread dough into a cooking pan and let it rise for ???

In terms of the prep, the batter is literally a dump-and-mix job. There is a major difference in rise time compared to kneaded dough which can rise in 30 – 45 minutes for the 1st rise, then around the same for the 2nd rise after forming the rolls. For these No Knead Dinner Rolls, the dough is much wetter than kneaded dough, so it takes longer to rise. 1.5 – 2 hours, depending on how warm it is where you are. If you use my ridiculous-but-effective tip of rising the dough in your (empty! warm!) dryer, it takes 1.5 hours.

Then take it out of the bowl and cut into sections to make balls a little smaller than tennis size balls out of it.
Oil a baking pan and shape the balls to put onto the baking pan then paint brush cover them with melted butter.
Put into the oven and bake at 350* for about 20 min or so until they become golden brown on the top.
Then when you break them open to eat, stuff them again full of butter and they're ready to eat.
