Thank's fruitluva2, I can't believe that margyr hasn't heard of Homestead chicken. She must be just a chicken herself (of the spring variety) Homestead chicken was a rival to KFC back in the 70's and I think was only Wellington based? ? ? but they had the nicest side orders of mushrooms (coated and deepfried) sweetbreads and yummy roast potatoes that had a coating also. I much preferred their food to the Colonel's.

I vaguely recall homestead chicken and it would have been in auckland too. Can't say that I've ever tried it tho' are you requesting a recipe for it?

Homestead was all over the country... .

I would love to know the coatings that they used on their sideorders. The mushrooms and potatoes had a seasoned flour type coating and the sweetbreads had a more traditional breaded or batter type coating. I'm sure some clever type out there has replicated it... I hope so

Sorry cannot help with recipe as yet but Panko crumbs are nice coating they can be obtained from Bin inns, asian stores. It's gonna be a mission but I will look for a potato recipe using the crumbs. Thanks Alebix it's a wonder we never tried them if they side orders were that nice as Matt says.

Uli and others l have always respected your straight up non pc answers you told the truth and didn't beat about the bush, so to speak and it is always refreshing to read what you say. My greatest respect for you all and hope you can find somewhere to post your great recipes free of ridicule and stupidity from a few small minded people who need to get a job and a life l can understand how these attacks hurt personally but remember for every one you attacks you there are many many more who support and respect you and like me find those puerile people are just stupid

If I'd known david4 was getting grief I would have piped up, pity those that were aware of it didn't. And this is the result we have, shame on yous and especially those that caused it.

I remember Homestead Chicken now after reading another post about the mushrooms. They were absolutely divine !

That is such a shame davidT4 was/is the most knowledgeable poster in this forum, I have never heard of those people in the Warzone thread or ever seen anthing they have posted. It would be a pity if the useful posters like davidT4 and Uli were turned off by these people.

well karenz we ARE turned off - and while I still post the odd thing here and there - I am certainly not interested in providing more ammunition to people who have no interest to provide any recipes nor help themselves - and can only critizise others for what they post.

Crikey! I was just passing and noticed my user name up there. Thank you everyone who has written so kindly about my contributions. Unfortunately uli is perfectly correct - I am one of the previous contributors who finally ran out of tolerance for the ridicule and insults (and not just to me but to many other helpful people) being dished out by a spiteful and ignorant minority. Sadly, most of them are still hanging around.
It's a shame there isn't more activity on trademecooks.net.nz now that it has revived and is moderated. When I have more free time (in about a month) I will be posting more Indian and SE Asian recipes there, and I am always happy to do my best to answer questions.

maxwellinc if that is the case that could be seen as cyber stalking and very scary that someone would stoop to that and surely they could be reported to TM and stopped. They have gone from nuisance to stalking and personal attacks like a bully in the school yard and that is a whole new ball game

I have also had help from davidt, and for the most part I have stayed well away from the contentious threads. BUT I don't know how davidt and uli can claim the moral high ground here, they have ridiculed less knowlegeable and sophisticated cooks and have had no compunction about speaking their mind and in very blunt terms. I wasn't going to take part in this until I read #37 and #43. Perhaps I'm wrong, and I am sure I will be told in no uncertain terms, but didn't the namecalling thread start up because elleihen and her mates objected to the perceived superiority of some of the posters on here ?

Davidt4, can I ask a big favour? Could I reproduce (and give you credit) your fab tiger salad recipe on a new low carb website?
It's one of my all time favourites!
