Greetings cyberspacers!

We hope you're faring well out there.

Tunes and ramblings as per usual for the first half of the program.

Just after 7:30am Antoinette Pitt joined us in the studio for a natter about state politics and her pending nomination as an independent candidate for Eastern Victoria in the state's upper house.  We chatted about the process of entering politics, policies of kindness and our disappointment in the current state of affairs of politics with the failing two party dominated system.

Ant is a real human who feels passionate about her community and is motivated to make real changes in the way people are represented by their politicians.  No party to serve, it's all about the people.

RED LENTIL COTTAGE PIE

Ingredients:

800g potatoes

1 medium brown onion - finely chopped

1 clove garlic - crushed

1 x 415g tin crushed tomatoes

1 cup vegetable stock

1 cup water

2 tablespoons tomato paste

1/3 cup dry red wine - I never seem to have any wine in the house!

2/3 cup red lentils (dry)

1 medium carrot - grated of chopped finely

1/2 cup frozen peas (thawed) - add other chopped veges like cauliflower or broccoli if you like

1/3 cup flat leaf parsley

1/4 cup hemp seeds

Parmesan cheese

Method:

Boil potatoes and mash with 1/2 the butter

Melt remaining butter in a deepish frypan, cook the onion and garlic, stirring until they soften

Add the tomatoes, stock, water, paste, wine, lentils and carrot (and any other veges you choose) and bring to the boil.

Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes

Add peas and parsley and cook uncovered for a further 5 minutes

Spoon mixture into a pie dish (I like to use single serve dishes), sprinkle the hemp seeds evenly then top with the mashed spud and finally add the parmesan cheese (or any other type of cheesy goodness)

Bake in an oven at 160C for 20 minutes.  Stand for 10 minutes before serving

Eat!

We hope you enjoy the program and good luck with the cottage pie

Cheers for your ears

Broadcasting from the historic Forest Park Homestead studio in the township of Upwey, an hour east of Melbourne Victoria, Peej, Elliot and maybe even Elaine hope you enjoy some nonsensical ramblings interspersed with great tunes to tap the toes to. We love independent Australian music and spin tunes from local artists over the 3 hours...Sometimes we are lucky enough to have a live performance on the show....quite rare given that 6am is not the friendliest of times for musos...but you never know....

Elliot will be in to do the weather so you know what to wear....but remember if you're listening to an earlier episode, please do not base your wardrobe decisions on this idiot's interpretation of the Australian Government's Bureau of Meteorology website....and maybe even Elaine will do a half arsed surf report when she remembers....

Occasionally there may be a little dead air....our silent panel operator who we shall not name is responsible for all dead air....he considers dead air helps you absorb a musical bracket before we open our mouths and ramble on....

Join us live on community radio 3MDR 97.1fm every Tuesday morning from 6am or enjoy previous episodes via this show page....

We love a bit of involvement from the community whether they be listening live on 97.1fm or via the wonders of modern technologies available to access this thing they call the information super highway......what will they think of next!?

Request a tune, express your delight, or disappointment, in Elliot's weather report......or just have a random chat with an imaginary friend......so super easy...... you can contact Peej or Elliot or maybe even Elaine through cyberspace at peejandelliot@gmail.com
