Harvey Kruger does well in his role as the mercenary Pieter Coetze as do Kenneth Griffith, John Kani and Jack Watson among the other members of the Wild Geese. Frank Finlay, Winston Ntshona and Stewart Granger all make welcomed appearances in the film in their supporting roles.aving just watched wild geese on DVD for the first time in almost 20 years I'm actually amazed how well it stands up today in the sense that it really portrays well the image of of the mercenary and the mercenary mentality in general back in the 60's and 70's!
Â© Roy Schuurhuis. Choux Pastry is a dough designed to make hollow puffy pastries from. In Choux Pastry, steam is the leavener. The dough has a high moisture content which in the oven turns to steam and causes light pockets inside the pastry to form. The resultant pastries needs to be airy, crispy and light. The dough is first cooked on a stove, in order to make a paste that a lot of the initial water has evaporated from.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Beignet (English pronunciation: /bÉnËjeÉª/; French: [bÉÉ²É], literally bump), synonymous with the English fritter, is the French term for a pastry made from deep-fried choux pastry. Beignets can also be made from other types of dough, including yeast dough. The tradition of deep-frying fruits for a side dish dates to the time of Ancient Rome, while the tradition of beignets in Europe is speculated to have originated with a heavy influence of Islamic culinary tradition. The term beignet can be applied to two varieties, depending on the type of pastry.
