Hello Chuck,
See below.
Phaed
Boneless Birds
2 lb. round steak, 1/2" thick
Salt & pepper
1 onion, cut into 8 wedges
4 sm. carrots
8 slices bacon
Flour
Margarine for browning
Pound meat to about 1/4" thick, and cut into 8 pieces. Season with salt and
pepper. Place a wedge of onion, a slice of bacon, and 1/2 of a carrot on each
piece. Roll up and fasten with toothpicks or string. Roll each in flour. In a
large frying pan melt margarine and brown rolled meat. Add 1/2 cup water to
browned meat and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours, adding more water as needed.
Remove from pan and use the remaining water for a gravy by adding a bit of flour
to the water and stirring over low heat until smooth. Serve with mashed
potatoes.

Hello Ken,
I did a bit of research, and I believe that the sauce you speak of is a
variation of "chimichurri". This is a steak sauce that is often used in
Argentina. It is not always green. The ingredients vary widely and sometimes
red tomatoes are used, which then make it a red sauce. The first recipe
below is for a green version. Below that is a recipe named "Argentine Green
Sauce", and below that are two notable green sauce recipes that gave no
connection to Argentina. I could not find a recipe with lovage (AKA 'celery seed').
Phaed
Chimichurri South American Steak Sauce
Chimichurri sauce is the perfect accompaniment for grilled meat and is
seen everywhere in countries such as Argentina. A garlicky, vibrant green
sauce, it balances the tang of vinegar with the softness of olive oil to
produce a unique blend of flavours.
A very large bunch of Italian (flat leaf) parsley
A teaspoon of dried oregano (or two teaspoons of fresh)
Around eight to 10 peeled cloves of fresh garlic
One medium Spanish (red) onion
A cup of extra virgin olive oil
Half a cup of red wine vinegar
Salt, pepper and dried chilli flakes to taste
Remove the parsley stems, add the garlic cloves and onion and either chop
as finely as possible or pulse in a food processor. Add the oregano, oil
and vinegar then gradually add the salt, pepper and chilli. Be brave -
the sauce should be highly seasoned.
If pre- preparing the sauce, omit the vinegar until just before serving
as it will ‘cook’ the other ingredients and the sauce will lose its
characteristic deep green colour. The sauce can be kept refrigerated but
it's best served at room temperature.
--------------------------
Argentine green sauce
Ingredients:
3 scallions, white and pale green parts, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano leaves
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1/2 cup distilled white or red wine vinegar
1 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon
kosher salt to taste
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Use immediately
or cover tightly and refrigerate up to two days. Mix well before serving.
---------------------------------
Basic Green Sauce
Ingredients:
1 Cup(s) Onions; Chopped, 2 Med.
1/2 Cup(s) Tomatoes; Medium, *
10 Ounce(s) Fresh Spinach; Chopped
1/2 Pound(s) Tomatillos; Coarsely Chopped
4 Ounce(s) Green Chiles; Chopped, 1 cn
2 Cloves Garlic; Crushed
1 Tablespoon(s) Oregano Leaves; Dried
1 Cup(s) Tomatillos; Cut Into Halves
2 Cup(s) Dairy Sour Cream
Directions:
Cook and stir onions in oil in a 3-quart saucepan until tender. Stir
in remaining ingredients except broth and sour cream. Cover and cook
over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place mixture
in food processor workbowl fitted with steel blade or in a blender
container; cover and process until smooth, about 1 minute. Return
mixture to saucepan; stir in broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat.
Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Stir in sour cream. Cover and
refrigerate any remaining sauce.
Makes about 4 cups of sauce.
---------------------------------
Famous Green Sauce
Ingredients:
1 Large white onion
1 Cup(s) chopped fresh cilantro
10 Clove(s) fresh garlic
27 Ounce(s) canned green hatch chilis, or same amount fresh roasted
2 Pound(s) 27 oz can if fresh isn't av fresh tomatillas
6 (do NOT use pickled or canned!!! fresh jalapeno peppers
4 (optional and VERY spicy) fresh habanero peppers
1 Tablespoon(s) olive oil
Directions:
1. Set aside 1/4 cup of cilantro, 2 large garlic cloves, and 1 jalapeno pepper.
2. If using fresh tomatillos, peel them out of the paper and boil them a scant
two minutes, or until they change color from light to darker green. Be careful
handling them, as they burst easily when they are cooked.
2. Except for those you have set aside, combine all the ingredients in a blender
or food processor. Process until smooth.
3. Heat the oil in a deep saucepan until it is hot, but not smoking. Pour in
the contents of the blender or food processor. Cook over medium heat until
sauce comes to a boil. Let simmer for five minutes and then remove from the stove.
4. Process the set aside cilantro, garlic and jalapeno until it is chopped fine.
Stir it into the cooling sauce.
5. Wash your hands VERY thoroughly, at least twice. Jalapenos and habanero are
HOT and can be awfully painful if you get them in your eyes. Do NOT remove or
insert contact lenses without washing multiple times, thoroughly.
I use this most often on poultry and pork, to give it a Mexican flavor. It is
also good on vegetable burritos and eggs. You can pour the sauce on meat, eggs,
or vegetables after they are cooked, or simmer them in the sauce. (The simmering
technique works very well for chicken.)
Hi Uncle Phaedrus,
I found another Horn & Hardart recipes that wasn't on your web site. So I
am sending it along.

Great Molasses Spice Cookies With One Really Weird Ingredient
[copycat Horn & Hardart Hermit Cookie] by Barbara Bretton

Great Molasses Spice Cookies With One Really Weird Ingredient
Whenever I think of Uncle Harry (who wasn't really my uncle; he was our
landlord when I was growing up) I think of three things: Lititz,
Pennsylvania where he was born; opera and classic music which he loved; and
trips to Manhattan which always included a magical lunch at Horn & Hardart.
Although it pains me to write this, some of you might be too young to
remember Horn & Hardart. And it pains me even more to realize that some of
you might only know of that wonderful chain of restaurants through an old
Doris Day movie but so it goes.
Now I was a tuna salad sandwich kind of girl. I lived for that moment when I
slid my quarter into the slot and the little glass door opened so I could
remove my treasure. But as good as that sandwich always was, nothing
compared to dessert: Hermits.
See, that's the thing about memory. It can drive you crazy. Periodically I
Googled "Horn & Hardart" and "Hermits" hoping against hope that The Recipe
would magically appear. It never did but after much experimentation, I
finally came up with a recipe a few weeks ago that comes pretty close.
*Ingredients:*
1/2 C butter (softened)
1/2 C shortening
(I made one batch with all butter, another batch all shortening. The all
butter version was head-and-shoulders better. Big surprise, right?)
1 1/2 C white sugar
1/2 C unsulphured molasses
2 eggs, lightly beaten
4 C white flour
2 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
2 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger (I prefer 3 teaspoons)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves (I prefer 2 - 3 teaspoons)
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (I prefer 2 - 3 teaspoons)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 heaping teaspoons table-grind pepper (not finely ground, not super coarse)
(Trust me. The pepper is the secret to the whole recipe. You can leave it
out if you must but I highly recommend it.
Granulated sugar to roll cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cream butter and shortening (or all butter or all shortening) with sugar
until light and fluffy. Beat in molasses and eggs until thoroughly combined.
Slowly add salt, baking soda, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, and pepper.
Gradually stir in flour and mix well. Batter will be very thick and a little
stiff.
You might try adding some raisins and/or chopped walnuts. I haven't tried it
yet but I'm going to.
Roll pieces of dough into 1 1/2 inch balls then roll in granulated sugar and
place on ungreased cookie sheet. (I line the sheet with parchment paper.)
Place them 2 1/2 inches apart on cookie sheet.
Bake for 13 minutes. Cookies will flatten out into perfect circles as they
bake. They might seem a little "loose" when you remove them from the oven
but don't succumb to the urge to bake them a little longer. They tighten up
quite a bit as they cool and become soft and chewy and -
Sorry. I stopped to dunk one in a cup of tea.
Give these a try. I think you'll like them.
Bake at 350 degrees for 13 minutes. They'll puff up beautifully and little
cracks will form on the tops of the cookies which makes them look extremely
cool. (Okay, so I'm easily amused.)
