Fill the freezer with favorite meats

I’VE LET my freezer run so low it’s likely costing
me twice as much as it should in electricity. For-

tunately, this is a good

week for stocking up on

several of my favorite meats.

Whole grade A fryers at
97¢ Ib. at Safeway are an ex-
cellent buy as are ribs (pork,
side) at $1.58 Ib.

Super Valu has the same
ribs‘at $1.59 lb: and cross-rib
roasts at $1.89." They’re
featuring | lean ground beef at

_$1.55.- any size package - and
stewing beef at $1.89. |
Isn't it amazingwhat you

‘can do with a couple of
pounds of stewing beef? I
start by tossing the beef (no
browning) with a package of
onion soup mix. and water to

. cover in a deep pot. For the
ext: two hours, wae: the ,

meat simmers | can decide
what nationality it's going to
assume. With different
vegetables and seasonings
and some judicious thicken-
ing of the gravy with either
cornstarch or flour mixed
with a little cold water here
are some of the alternatives:
CHINESE: Soy sauce,
mushrooms, bean sprouts,

water chestnuts and onions. -

Thicken with cornstarch.
EUROPEAN: (Stroganoff)
Add mushrooms, a dollop. of

* tomato paste or ketchup,

thicken with flour and add
about 3/4 cup sour cream.
Sprinkle with parsley.
HAWAIIAN: Add ‘pineap-
ple, green pepper and onion.
ITALIAN: Add mushrooms,
juice of a lemon and about
1/2 cup Marsala wine before
thickening.

MEXICAN: Evaporate the
broth until it's almost gone.
Add a 14 oz. tin tomatoes,
chopped onion and green
pepper, a lsrge tin drained
kidney beans and sesson with
chili powder. —

BRITISH: Add a jolt of ket-
ebup, pienty of sliced
mushrooms and a diced
onion. Thicken and top with
frozen puff pastry. Bake at
400F until very brown and
crisp.

My family doesn’t care for
curry but if they did I'd try
adding a tin of coconut milk,
plenty of garlic and seasoning
it with a‘fine brand of Indian
curry powder. On the side,
I'd serve fried bananas, pine
