Strange Worlds Recipes

Please give a warm welcome for my guest Hank Quense. He's back with another post, this one is a recipe I'm not quite sure about; but hey, I'm a Canuck and we've only ever had roadkill grouse.  The part about the feathers I can attest to, though.
After you pirate borrow Hank's recipe, stop by if you will and visit me at C. Lee Mckenzie's blog. Although I'm here, I'm also there talking about the collaborative anthology I wrote with six fellow authors. Yes, I have super powers and can be in two places at once. When my boys were young, that confused them a lot. Now, not so much. 


Strange Worlds Recipes
My name is Burga.  I’m warrior-cook.  Adventuring is my profession, but cooking is my passion and I love collecting new recipes to try.I’ve been a few short stories and the author, Hank Quense, has promised me a staring role in a novel, but the schmuck hasn’t done anything about it. As a consequence, I have to share my recipes to get coins to buy spices and herbs. Below are two of my best recipes in my collection.
Lily Pad Bundles
No elfin feast ever begins without these delightful bundles. Cuisine: ElfinCourse: AppetizerBurga Says: A refreshing change from 'ordinary' appetizers.  The pond scum lends a tasty piquant flavor.A good elf buddy of mine and me swapped a dozen recipes recently and this was one I got.  They make a great appetizer although non-elves often get sick from eating the bundles.
Time: One hour: start to finishServings: TwelveIngredients:12 large lily pads½ pound dried pond scum, chopped½ pound frog tongues, chopped1 pound wild onions, chopped1 pound swamp mushrooms, chopped1 quart cooking oilPreparation:1. Combine all ingredients except lily pads2. In a heavy skillet, cook mixture until heated throughout3. Remove from heat and cool.4. Spread equal amounts of mixture on each lily pad5. Roll up the lily pad and sealed the ends with a bit of water on a finger tip6.  Drop into hot cooking oil and cook until lily pads turn golden.
Grilled Road Kill
An alien delicacy from Zaftan 31B.  Don't try to cook this one in a hurricane.  And don't ever try to do this indoors.  Cuisine: ZaftanCourse: MainBurga Says: Roadkill to Zaftans is a highly-prized delicacy and the presence of a freshly mutilated creature on the roads often sparks murderous disputes, providing even more roadkillTime: Marinate 8 hours: grill 15 minutesServings: TwoIngredients:1 three pound roadkill roast1 cup motor oil1 quart ethanolPreparation:1. Don't bother to skin the meat. Any fur or feathers will burn off in the cooking process2. If the roadkill isn't a uniform thickness, bash the thick part with a mallet until it thins out.3. Combine one cup unused motor oil with one quart ethanol. Pour over meat and marinate overnight.4. Move a grill at least ten yards from any building. Place meat on grill and pour marinade over it,5. Ignite the grill using an electric sparked with at least ten feet of cable.6. When the fire dies down, serve the meat.
