take one piece of dough and divide into 3 sections Set as small piece of the dough aside for the stem

etc Some of the shamrocks we decorated with neon gel after removing from the oven
Bake approximately 20 minutes or until the shamrocks are lightly browned on top and bottom Baking time depends on the size of the pieces you make

5 -5 1/2 lbs pumpkin preferably a cheese or pie pumpkin
5 cups sugar
2 large lemons juice and zest of minced
1 large lemon sliced thin
Steps:
DAY BEFORE CANNING Cut the pumpkin into large chunks
discarding the stems
seeds
and stringy innards attached to them Pare the skin from the chunks Slice each chunk into pieces 1/2 to 3/4 square
as evenly as you can Stir to combine the pumpkin pieces in a large glass or ceramic bowl with the sugar
lemon juice and zest
and 1/2 cup water Cover and let the mixture sit overnight
or a few hours longer
at room temperature It will give off a good bit of liquid
DAY OF CANNING Prepare 5 or 6 half-pint canning jars by washing thoroughly Place the jars on a rack in a boiling water canner
but DO NOT add water yet
Spoon the pumpkin mixture into a large heavy saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat Reduce the heat to a bare simmer and cook
covered
until the pumpkin pieces are quite tender
but still hold their shape and have become somewhat translucent in a glaze of thick syrup
about 30 minutes
As soon as you have reduced the heat for the pumpkin mixture
fill the canner with water; water should be at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars You may need to add 1 cup of white vinegar if you have hard water in your area Boil the jars for 10 minutes to sterilize It will take about 20--30 minutes for the water to come to a boil Start timing from the time it reaches a good steady boil
While pumpkin is cooking
blanch the lemon slices in a small saucepan of boiling water
just enough to soften them
and drain Stir the lemon slices into the chips just before removing the preserves from the heat
Once the jars have sterilized and the pumpkin is ready
remove jars from canner to a surface covered in heavy towels or layers of newspaper NEVER place hot jars on a bare countertop
as the difference in temperature could cause jars to shatter Spoon the chips into the hot jars
leaving at least 1/4-inch head space
Process the jars in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes Refrigerate jars after opening

While the water-oat mix is cooling
get started with your filling First
get the cabbage shredding out of the way Then dice your onions
sing Im NOT crying Flight of the Conchords style as you go wink This will probably take you as long as the water to cool
if you are doing the shredding by hand When the bread dough is rising and has about 30 minutes left to rise
start with making the filling
Saute the onions until translucent 10-12m
and crumble in the beef I had to use a bread dough scraper to chop it up small enough to really work with
so it didnt stick to the pan If sticking does occur
add a little more oil When those are mixed together and heated through
add your cabbage I promise it cooks down
Stir those around a bit and let flavors meld When the cabbage is getting lighter in color and is softening
add your seasonings Let this simmer on a low temp as you work with the bread dough
and let the dough balls rest Roll out dough ball when it has rested
and fill with 1/3c to 2/3c 1/3 is about right for an 8 or 9 circle
so more if you made yours bigger Add additional Worcestershire and soy sauce as needed
filling should be moist but not WET
To fold the dough around the filling and make it look nice
I flipped one long corner over
flipped the short ones down Wet the last dough flap with water
flip up and press it inches Wetting it will help it stick and not open up It should look something like a burrito now Dust with flour on all sides so it wont stick to your pan and break open Place
seam side down
on a greased pan and start over Continue until you run out of dough or you run out of filling
Slice the aubergines lay in a colander and sprinkle with salt Cover with a plate put a weight on top and leave to one side for the juices to drain out while you are preparing the rest of the vegetables
Peel and dice the potatoes peel deseed and chop the tomatoes and deseed and slice the peppers Heat half the olive oil wash and dry the aubergines and fry in the oil until crisp on the outside
In a separate pan fry the peppers and potatoes together in the remaining oil until just soft Then add the aubergines tomatoes and garlic Season and simmer for one hour

NOTES I used a combination of fresh mushrooms including cremini
chanterelle
hen of the woods maitake
and beech bunashimeji For depth of flavor
I added some some dried shiitake mushrooms Soak dried mushrooms in 1-2 cups hot water for 30-60 minutes before use; add the liquid with the broth discard sediment; if using shiitakes
discard stems too
they are tough Instead of separating the thyme leaves
you can just tie a bunch of sprigs together and fish the bundle out before pureeing The original recipes suggested leaving it half-pureed and rustic but I found it grainy so I pureed it completely This soup can be made ahead Reserve 1-2 cups broth and add it while reheating on medium-low This is what I did for garnish per serving When the butter and olive oil were hot
I cooked some pretty slices of cremini and reserved them On each serving I drizzled about 1 tsp cream
Heat oil and add mustard and cumin seeds fry until mustard seeds begin to pop Add onion and cook until soft Add chillies garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds more
stir in the coriander mix and add the squash and aubergine Reduce heat to low and stir for 1 minute
Add 400ml cold water cover and simmer for 15 minutes
Add cauliflower and tomatoes; cover again and simmer for a further 10 minutes
