    Title: Double-Corn Bacon Muffins
    Categories: Muffins
    Yield: 1 Batch

    50 ml Sunflower oil
    1 sm Onion; peeled and chopped
    300 g Uncooked sliced bacon
    325 g Tin sweet corn; drained
    225 ml Low-fat plain yogurt
    1 ts Chilli sauce, Tabasco, or
    -piri-piri
    1 lg Egg
    1 lg Zucchini (about 200 g);
    -washed and grated
    125 g Uncooked polenta or cornmeal
    150 g Plain flour
    1 tb Caster sugar; scant
    3 ts Baking powder

    There is such a wallop of flavours here that it would be madness to
    use the best stuff. It's more about corner-shop bits and bobs. Keep
    the mixture in the fridge overnight, then just spoon it into paper
    cases in the morning and bake from cold for hearty breakfast muffins.

    Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onion, bring to a sizzle, then
    reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes until soft. Cut the bacon into
    small pieces, stir into the onions, and simmer for 5 minutes more.
    Add the corn, cook for a further 2 to 3 minutes, then tip everything
    into a bowl and leave to cool for 15 minutes.

    Beat in the yogurt, chilli sauce, and egg, then stir in the zucchini
    and polenta until evenly combined. Sift the flour, sugar, and baking
    powder, then beat through the muffin mix.

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan-assisted)/400°F/gas mark 6.
    Spoon the mixture right to the top of a dozen muffin cases sat in a
    muffin tray and bake for 25 minutes. Leave to cool before serving, so
    they firm up a little.

    Title: Southern Fried Deep-Fat Fried Fat
    Categories: Pork, Breads, Snacks
    Yield: 16 Servings

    1 lb Ham fat; with skin, in 16
    - squares
    1 qt Oil, tallow or lard

    MMMMM---------------------------BATTER--------------------------------
    2 1/2 c Sifted flour
    2 c Cold water
    +=OR=+
    2 c Club soda
    Egg yolks
    pn Salt

    Cut the ham fat into 16 equal, squarish pieces. Set
    aside.

    Put oil/tallow/lard into a deep fryer or a fondue pot
    to heat. While the cooking oil is heating to 360ºF/180ºC
    ......

    Make the batter. I prefer to use club soda as it gives a
    lighter (and I think) crispier batter. You may use plain
    old cold water if you wish. A couple (or three) egg
    yolks help hold things together and blend in.

    When the oil is hot, dip the chunks of fat into the
    batter and fry in the hot oil until golden brown.

    Serve hot.

    If you have batter left over you may want to fry up some
    batter-dipped crudities (cauliflower or broccoli florets,
    onion rings, or bell pepper strips/rings) as an
    accompaniment.

    Serve with your favourite hot-pepper sauce on the side.
