Aqtagħha f’biċċiet żgħar u aħsilha darb’oħra. Trid taħsel il-kirxa aktar minn darba. Meta tara li hija nadifa, poġġiha f’borma, għattiha bl-ilma, u qiegħed fuq nar medju-għoli. Ħalli tgħalli, imbagħad baxxi n-nar u ħalliha tkompli ssajjar għal madwar 45 minuta. Sadanittant, aħsel, qaxxar u aqta’ l-ħaxix kollu f’biċċiet żgħar u poġġih f’borma kbira.

Boil pasta in plenty of salted water. When pasta is cooked, cool under running water and strain. In a large frying pan heat some oil and fry the onion and garlic. Add the minced meat and continue cooking on low heat for about 8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and the chopped fresh tomatoes. Continue cooking on a low heat for a further 20 minutes. Preheat oven Gas Mark 5/1900C. Put the pasta either in a large bowl or else you can use the same pan where you had boiled it. Add meat sauce, eggs, seasoning and cheese. Mix well, taking great care so as not to break up the pasta. Line a pie dish with pastry. Fill with pasta mixture and cover again with pastry. Egg wash, sprinkle some sesame seeds and cook in a medium to hot oven for about 50 minutes.

Peel and finely chop the onions and garlic. Chop the hard-boiled eggs. In a large frying pan heat some oil and quickly fry the onions and garlic till golden brown. Add the meat and continue frying for about 10 minutes on a high heat. Lower heat. Add the tomatoes, basil, seasoning, tomato paste and stock and simmer for a further 30 minutes. This sauce can be prepared overnight, and it freezes very well. Preheat the oven Gas Mark 5/1900C. Lightly grease a baking dish. Meanwhile fill large pot with water and bring to boil. Boil the pasta till al dente. Drain and put pasta in a large mixing bowl.

Ricetta ta' Anton B. Dougall

Preheat oven to Gas Mark 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. 

First make the batter. Put the flour and cumin in a bowl, add the eggs and slowly mix in the milk then beat until smooth.

Put the sausages in an ovenproof baking dish, scatter over the onions in olive oil, artichokes, canned cherry tomatoes and drizzle over the oil. Add the honey, brown sauce and mustard and give everything a stir. Roast for 15 minutes. 

Remove the dish from the oven, add the sun-dried tomatoes and crumbled gbejniet, pour the batter over and around the sausages then return to the oven and cook for a further 35 minutes or until the sausages are cooked through and the batter is golden on top.

Serve the toad in the hole with the gravy or brown sauce.
