Rescuers Down Under Dinner


Rescuers Down Under is a favorite for Tim!  We really enjoyed revisiting an old classic! 

For dinner we had Pea Soup, Joanna's Poached Eggs, Albatross's Sausage Rolls, Bernard and Bianca's Celebratory Champagne, and Marahute Cookies. 





Pea Soup
We just got split pea soup from the grocery store!

*This scene stood out to me when Bernard and Bianca are at the restaurant at the beginning of the movie - for sure Ratatouille vibes here!






Joanna's poached Eggs
Tim learned how to poach eggs for this movie!  I can't even speak as to what the hell he did but here are some tips if you want to poach your own eggs. 






Albatross's Sausage Rolls
These were DELICIOUS!  

This Australian dish is also inspired by the aerial moves by Albatross. 


Ingredients:

16oz of Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage
1 package of puff pastry, thawed to package directions
3/4 cup of Italian bread crumbs
1/3 cup of milk
1 teaspoon of garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon of paprika
1 egg
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Unfold dough and cut into 4 equal pieces per sheet of dough
3. Combine sausage, bread crumbs, milk, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper in a large bowl.  
4. Spoon sausage mix into the dough sections.
5. Roll up pastry around sausage and pinch the seam together.
6. Place on baking sheet and brush each roll with egg wash (1 egg plus 1 tablespoon of water) and sprinkle with paprika.
7. Bake for 5 minutes then reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for 30 minutes.  




Bernard and Miss Bianca's Celebratory Champagne
(you got me, it's a White Claw!)




Marahute's Cookie

This sorta was a pinterest fail.  It's supposed to be an eagle face but Tim thinks it looks like the nest with eggs and I'm just happy it resembles something from the movie.

Ingredients:

Milano cookies
Chocolate wafers, melted
Shredded coconut
Chocolate chips
Almond slices

Directions

1. Dip cookies in melted chocolate
2. Cover with coconut
3. Add a chocolate chip for an eye (?)
4. Almond slices for collar and beak or eggs?
