Bread Glorious Bread

Yup, a post full of recipes and not much else. I thought I would share my favourite bread recipe and a cool recipe for spinach, cheese and quinoa patties.

Yummy bread recipe
1/2 tsp sugar & 1 Tbsp honey
Milk water mix (Approx 1 3/4 cups)
1 Tbsp yeast
Pour boiling water onto honey and sugar, add milk till cool enough to add 1 Tbsp yeast

Let sit for 20 minutes then add 4 cups of flour and 1 tsp salt. Stir together (knead if you fancy it) and leave for 1 hour. Decant into baking paper lined loaf tin and turn oven to 180C. Place bread in oven and cook for 25 minutes. You can jazz this up by blending porridge oats and sunflower seeds in food processor (up to 2 cups worth) which gives it a lovely flavour.
Quinoa Patties

2.5 cups cooked quinoa (1 cup uncooked)
1 onion finely chopped
3 cloves of garlic finely chopped
1/3 cup spinach, silverbeet or chives
3 eggs1/3 cup cheese - tasty or feta
1 cup of breadcrumbs
Splodge of onion marmalade, chutney etc
seasoning to taste.
Mix all ingredients, chill for 5 minutes and shape into patties. Cook for 3 minutes either side on medium heat.
