Even the shankbone has the proper supplement for resistance to meats. Basic recommendations for the Passover meal include: Chopped "Liver" Spread 1 lb. or more of green beans, washed stewed, or lightly sauteed 1 large onion, chopped, and also stewed, or lightly sauteed 1 cup of chopped walnuts 3 large tablespoons mayonnaise (or Nasoya Nasoyanaise), or to taste salt and freshly ground pepper to taste Mix well and chill. A hearty vegetable soup from your favorite recipe. It will also be useful to keep some stock for the next two recipes. Israeli Casserole: 1 large eggplant salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 onions 4 medium potatoes, parboiled in skins 6-8 medium, ripe tomatoes 1 small green pepper, de-seeded 1 clove garlic, crushed 1 oz. vegetable oil 1 1/3 cups of hot vegetable stock 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley Peel the eggplant, cut in- to thick slices, sprinkle with salt, and allow to stand for 30 minutes. Then wash to remove salt, and cut into small cubes. Chop onions, peel and dice potatoes, chop tomatoes and green pepper. Saute chopped onions and garlic for 5 minutes. Add eggplant and potatoes. Saute until soft and beginning to brown. Then transfer to an oven- proof casserole with a cover. Pour the vegetable stock, chopped tomatoes and parsley into the casserole. Season with salt and pepper, cover, bake for 30-45 minutes, covered, at 350 degrees. Seder Roast: 1 1/2 cups of /nixed ground nuts 2 beaten eggs 1 onion, finely chopped 1-2 cloves of garlic, crushed 1 large carrot, grated 1 /2 cup matzo meal 2 tablespoons tomato paste salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 onion, sliced 2% cups of vegetable stock Mix all ingredients very well, except the sliced onion and the vegetable stock. Grease an ovenproof casserole well, place a layer of sliced onions on the bottom and round the sides. Place the nut mix- ture over this. Pour the vegetable stock over the mixture. Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees, or until brown. This makes a wonderful traditional holiday dish, and can be served with your favorite potato kugel or potato dish. There is also a grand gravy to go with it: Seder Gravy: small piece of onion 1 clove garlic 21/2 tablespoons butter, or polyunsaturated margarine 2 tsp. potato flour salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 1/4-1 1/3 cups hot vegetable stock (can be made with vegetable soup cube) 1 tablespoon red wine (optional) Lightly brown onion and garlic in melted butter or margarine. Then remove onion and garlic and take fat off the heat. Blend the potato flour and seasonings into the fat and return to a low heat, and brown slightly. Slowly add hot stock, stirring constantly until the gravy has thickened. A tablespoon of red wine may be added here. Note: Chopped, sauteed mushrooms may be added, tomato juice may be substituted for vegetable stock. Add a pinch of sugar towards the end of cooking. Banana Nut Kugel 3 cups of matzah farfel 4 eggs 1 /2 tsp salt 6 tablespoons sugar 1 /4 cup melted butter or polyunsaturated margarine 2 medium unripe bananas, sliced 1 /2 cup chopped nuts (we recommend walnuts or pecans) Pour cold water over the farfel and drain immediate- ly so that the farfel is moist, but not soggy. Beat eggs with salt, sugar, and melted butter or margarine. Then mix with the farfel. In a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish, place half the farfel mixture. Arrange the sliced bananas on top and sprinkle with the nuts. Top with the balance of the farfel mixture. Bake 45 minutes, at 350 degrees, or until set and lightly brown. Serves 6. A little soymilk over this is delicious. Also recommended with fruit compote on the side. Call these epicurean delights if you wish. In the in- stance of the Passover seder meals they represent an ele- ment in the idealism for festival observance based on deeprooted idealism. This is where the epicurean is truly a gourmet who gives credence to the vegetarian commitment. Abraham Isaac HaCohen Kook, Shlomo Goren, Shmuel Yosef Agnon and their present-day cohorts in the movement would surely delight in sharing the Passover delicacies proposed in adherance to a basically divine Haggadah for the Liberated Lamb. ❑ immimmal NEWS I Begin Unhappy With Situation Tel Aviv (JTA) — Ten years after Israel and Egypt signed a peace treaty, one of its ar- chitects, Menachem Begin, expressed disappointed at the incomplete manner in which relations between the two countries have developed. In a radio interview Begin said there is no cause for real celebration now, despite the exchange of ambassadors and the air and road links bet- ween the former enemies. But Eliahu Ben-Elissar, Israel's first ambassador to Egypt and now a Likud member of the Knesset, said the peace treaty has gone beyond his expectations. He said relations between the two nations are better today than he anticipated when he first took up his post in Cairo. One of the treaty's other ar- chitects, former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, can- not comment on the status. He was killed by Moslem ex- tremists two years after sign- ing the treaty. And the American con- ciliator, former President Jimmy Carter, told the New York Times, "I don't think we took advantage of any oppor- tunities in the last eight years."
