If you are trying to lower cholesterol, omit the sausage and use 1/4 cup of
Recipe Crumbles (by Morningstar Farms) or something similar.

Recipe By     : Bon Appetit
Serving Size  : 4    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    :
  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2  cup           fresh mint -- packed
     1/3  cup           fresh ginger -- chopped
     1/3  cup           honey
   2      cups          boiling water
     1/3  cup           fresh lemon juice
   1 1/2  cups          cold water

Place mint, ginger, honey and boiling water in a large bowl. Mix well to
dissolve honey. Let sit, covered, for 1/2 hour.

When 1/2 hour is up, strain the liquid out and reserve it. Throw out the
solids (press out excess liquid before doing that).

Place cold water and lemon juice in a pitcher or plastic bottle. Add
reserved mint & ginger-infused liquid. Add ice cubes and then serve. Garnish
with mint leaves.

Variation: Add 2 oz or more vodka to lemonade mixture. Mix well.

NOTES : Risa's notes:

After you squeeze the juice from the lemons, put the skins in with the
mint-ginger mixture. Or you can remove the zest from the lemons before
squeezing and include that in the mixture.

                       SMOKED CHILE POTATO KNISHES

Recipe By     : Wayne Harley Brachman, Melting Pot
Serving Size  : 12   Preparation Time :0:00

                Potatoes

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     3/4  cup           vegetable oil
     3/4  cup           water
     1/4  teaspoon      ground cumin
     1/4  teaspoon      turmeric
     1/2  teaspoon      salt
   2 1/2  cups          all-purpose flour
   2      pounds        peeled baking potatoes -- like russets
   1      large         Spanish onion -- minced (2 cups)
   3      tablespoons   vegetable oil
   1      teaspoon      ground cumin
   3      tablespoons   pureed chipotle in adobo sauce*
   1      pound         pre-cooked kielbasa** -- cut into 1/4 inch
                        dice

In a mixer fitted with the paddle, combine the oil, water, cumin, turmeric,
salt, and 1 1/2 cups flour. If necessary, add additional flour or water to
make a soft dough. Form into 2 rectangles. Wrap in plastic and let rest at
room temperature for 30 minutes. This is an oil-pastry called ail teig.

Place the potatoes in a pot of water and boil until fork-tender (25
minutes). Drain, rinse and mash. Meanwhile, sauté the onions in the oil
until golden and caramelized then add the ground cumin and let sauté until
aromatic. Mix onions into potatoes. In a blender, puree the chipotle. Add
the chipotle and kielbasa to the potato mixture. Let cool.

Preheat the oven to 375-degrees. Roll out the dough into 2 triangles,
1/8-inch thick each, about 10 by 15 inches. Spoon filling down the center,
shaping into a squared-off log. Trim dough and wrap the filling, rolling the
pastry so the seam is on the bottom. Alternatively, cut dough into 4
1/2-inch squares. Place 1/4 cup filling in the center of the squares. Fold
up the corners and pinch to seal. Set seam side down, on a non-stick cookie
sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, until golden.

Yield: 2 large or 12 to 16 small knishes

Risa's notes: For variation, you can make the filling and
use a different dough for the outside. I used rice paper
and made like spring rolls, I used phyllo dough and also
a dough from the New York Cookbook by Molly O'Neill. All
gave a bit of a different feel to the appetizer.

* I used smoked lemon drop powder and smoked chocolate
habanero powder instead of the chipotle en adobo.

** I omitted the sausage as Alex was going to be there and
I wanted her to be able to eat the knishes. So if you know
you will be serving a vegetarian than I would omit this.

In food processor, puree the cream cheese, chipotles and honey together.

Serve with chocolate chip bagels (Lender's Frozen) or any of your favorite

sweet and not enough heat.
