Fried Capellan Turg-rrot Root ~ Star Wars The Old Republic

 Thick Capellan Turg-rrot Root is deep fat fried to emphasize its crunchy goodness. It is served hot with an excellent array of dipping sauces.

Scrub up 4 large potatoes

Slice the potatoes into thin slices.

Heat a pan of oil until it sizzles when you flick water into it.

It should make a Shhhhhhhhhthhhhsssssssss sound if it is ready.

Submerge uncooked fries into hot oil until tender.

They will float to the top when they are done cooking, You can see it below.

Let dry on a rack or paper towels. 

Salt and pepper to taste.

Yum!

Holiday Cheesewheel

You will need:

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
2  cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

In a medium size bowl, mash cream cheese.

Mix dressing mix and Cheddar cheese into the cream cheese.

Shape the mixture into a ball. Roll the ball in the chopped nuts.
It gets much easier to handle once it's covered a bit.

I'm green.
I don't buy saran wrap, trash bags, aluminum foil, napkins, paper towels.
I wrapped the cheese wheel in an empty bread bag.

Refrigerate covered until ready to serve.
At least 2 hours before serving perferably overnight.

Yum!
