Baked Mashed Potatoes With a Carrot Shell
butter. 2 -3 carrots, sliced. 1 cup frozen peas (optional) or 1 cup fresh peas, cooked (optional). 2 lbs potatoes. 2 eggs, beaten. 14 cup butter or 14 cup margarine. 14 cup milk or 14 cup cream. 12 teaspoon salt. 18 teaspoon white pepper.
Generously butter a 1 1/2 quart ovenproof bowl. Don't skimp here! If you do, the carrots will stick to the bowl when you unmold it onto a plate. Cook carrot slices in boiling water or chicken broth for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; drain and cool slightly. Cover the bottom and sides of the bowl with carrot slices. If using peas, cook the peas and arrange the peas between the carrot slices (using whatever design you like). I prefer to cook the peas and use them as a garnish around the final plated dish. Meanwhile, peel and cube the potatoes. Cook in a medium saucepan (uncovered) in boiling water for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain. In a mixing bowl, mash potatoes. Mix in eggs, 1/4 cup butter, milk, salt, and white pepper. Spoon mashed potatoes into carrot-lined bowl. Cover with foil. At this point you can refrigerate up to 24 hours if needed. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes or until slightly puffed and the center is hot. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes (a must! ), then unmold onto a serving plate.

Bluespberry Cobbler
24 ounces, weight Fresh Blueberries. 18 ounces, weight Fresh Raspberries. 2 Tablespoons Lime Juice. 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch. 3/4 cups Granulated Sugar, Divided. 1 whole Egg, Beaten. 1/2 cups Milk. 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract. 1 cup Flour, All Purpose. 1 cup Cornmeal. 2 Tablespoons Baking Powder. 1 pinch Salt. 6 Tablespoons Butter, Frozen. Sweetened Whipped Cream For Serving.
This can be made in individual serving-sized cups, a 10 round pie pan, or a 9x 9 square pan. Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease baking dish(es). In a large bowl, combine berries with lime juice, cornstarch, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Toss to combine and let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk egg, milk and vanilla extract. Set aside. In another separate bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Cut the butter into small pieces, or grate it on the largest side of a kitchen grater (butter must be frozen if grating). Work the cold butter into the dry ingredients, taking care not to overwork and melt the butter pieces if using your fingers. Pour egg and milk mixture over flour/butter mixture and stir until just combined, folding the batter for the last few turns. The batter will be thick. Divide/spoon berries into the baking pan(s) then top with spoons full (dollops) of batter. Sprinkle with a few pinches of additional sugar on top (optional). Bake until the berries start to bubble and the batter turns golden around the edges. For the individual serving-sized cups this is achieved in 25-30 minutes, for a 10 round or a 9x9 pan this is achieved in 35-45 minutes. When done remove pan(s) from the oven and set on a wire rack. Allow the cobbler(s) to cool at least 15 minutes before serving. I recommend serving these slightly warm with a few dollops, or squirts, of sweetened whipped cream. Makes 10 servings.

Chicken Goulash
8 boneless chicken thighs. 2 medium onions. 1 tablespoon paprika. 1 teaspoon caraway seed. 115 g button mushrooms. 14 ounces canned chopped tomatoes. 1 14 cups chicken stock. freshly chopped parsley (to garnish).
Remove the skins from the chicken thighs. Heat a little of the skin in a nonstick frying pan and add the chicken. Cook over a medium heat for about 15 minutes, until well browned on all sides. Meanwhile, peel and roughly chop the onions. Remove the chicken from the frying pan, discard the skin, and pour away all but 1 tablespoon of fat. Cook the onions in the pan with the paprika and caraway seeds for about 3 minutes, then add the mushrooms and cook for about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and the stock and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, then add the chicken. Cover the pan and simmer for about 30-35 minutes, until the chicken is tender. Remove the lid and reduce the liquid to a sauce consistency by fast boiling for 5 - 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Then sprinkle with the freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Fish Cushions With Papaya-Raisin-Dip
1 papaya (1/2 cup fruit flesh). 1 tablespoon raisins. 1 tablespoon rum (amber). 12 red chili pepper (see note, seeded, finely chopped). 12 tablespoon sour cream. 12 garlic clove, minced. 1 teaspoon lemon juice. 12 teaspoon coriander, chopped. salt and pepper. 5 ounces king fish fillets (see note). 6 slices of toast bread. 1 teaspoon lemon juice. 1 teaspoon olive oil. 1 egg white. 1 egg yolk. 12 tablespoon milk. 2 teaspoons coconut flakes (dried). brown sugar. salt and pepper, to taste. olive oil (for frying).
Mix raisins with rum and set aside. Let stand for at least 30 minutes to soak raisins with rum. Put papaya fruit flesh, sour cream, garlic, chili pepper and lemon juice in food processor and mix until smooth for about 10 to 20 seconds. Remove raisins from rum and add to papaya mixture. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the rum and coriander. Mix with a spoon. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set sauce aside. You can prepare sauce in advance. Cut fish fillet into cubes and mix with lemon juice and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Remove crust from toast bread. Roll out every barked toast bread slice very thinly using a rolling pin. Brush the margins of the slices with egg white. Place the fish on three of these slices. Use also the fluid. Cover the three slices with the remaining three to build the cushions. Press the edges of the slices to close the cushions. Use a knife to remove "excess" of bread. Mix egg yolk with milk and add a pinch of salt. Brush the cushions very lightly on both sides with egg yolk mixture (but remain about the half for later use). Preheat broiler of your oven. Heat up olive oil in a pan. Fry the cushions in oil when hot on both sides for about 2-3 minutes until golden. Remove cushions from pan. Brush cushions with the remaining egg yolk mixture on top side and sprinkle with coconut flakes. Sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar on each cushion. Broil the cushions in the oven until coconut flakes are golden for about 1-2 minutes. Serve the fish cushions hot with the papaya-raisin-sauce. NOTE on fish: if you can't get King Fish or Mackerel, you can use other firm fish fillet. I have also tried tilapia. NOTE on chili pepper: if you like it hot you can use more, if you like it mild use less or a mild type chili pepper. I have used a mild one here. NOTE on serving: as an appetizer this will make 3 servings. As a main dish it will make 1 serving. As a main dish serve it with rice or a green salad. Time to make does not include time to soak the raisins.

Seeduction Bread
1 1/4 cups warm water (105 degrees to 115 degrees). 2 tablespoons molasses. 2 tablespoons honey. 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast. 2 tablespoons canola oil. 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour. 1 cup whole wheat flour. 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt. 3 tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds. 2 tablespoons raw sunflower seeds. 1 tablespoon poppy seeds. 2 tablespoons millet seed. 3 tablespoons malted barley flour. 1 tablespoon wheat gluten. 1 egg white, beaten. 1 teaspoon millet seed.
Gently stir together the warm water, molasses, honey, and yeast in a large bowl and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Pour oil into the yeast mixture. In a separate bowl mix together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, salt, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, 2 tablespoons of millet, barley flour, and vital wheat gluten. Stir the flour and seed mixture to the yeast mixture until it pulls together. Turn the dough out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 7 to 8 minutes, adding additional flour as needed. Place the dough in a large oiled bowl, cover and let stand in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Grease a 9x13 baking sheet. Punch down the risen dough and turn out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Form into a round or oval loaf shape and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover the dough and allow to rise until doubled in size again, about 40 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) toward the end of this second rise. Slash the top of the loaf diagonally with a sharp razor blade or serrated knife, carefully brush with the beaten egg white, and sprinkle remaining millet seeds over the top. Bake in preheated oven until the bread sounds hollow when thumped on the side, 40 to 45 minutes.

Rooibos Dark Chocolate Ganache Shards
1 Tablespoon Melted Butter. 1/2 cups (scant) Heavy Cream. 1/4 cups Hazelnuts, Chopped. 2 Tablespoons Honey Plus A Drizzle. 1 teaspoon Vanilla. 4 bags Rooibos Tea, Individual Size Tea Bags. 12 ounces, weight Dark Chocolate, Chopped (best Quality Available). 2 ounces, weight Milk Chocolate, Chopped. 1/4 cups Dried Cranberries, Chopped. 2 pinches Sea Salt.
Line an 8x12 inch (1/4 sheet size) jelly roll pan with parchment paper and set aside. Combine the melted butter and heavy cream in a cup; you want 1/2 cup total liquid. Set aside. In a saute pan over medium heat, toast the hazelnuts, tossing occasionally. Drizzle with a bit of honey over the top halfway through cooking. The nuts will be toasted when you can smell the nutty aroma, and they are a nice golden brown (about 5-8 minutes). Remove from heat. In a separate saucepan, mix the cream mixture, vanilla, and honey together. Heat on medium low for about 2-3 minutes until warm and smooth. Remove from the heat and add the tea bags. Set pan aside and let the mixture steep for 10-15 minutes. Place a heatproof bowl over a simmering pot of water to make a double boiler. Make sure the bottom of the bowl does not ever touch the water. Place about 10 ounces of the dark chocolate in the bowl to melt, stirring frequently. Once melted, remove from the stove and stir in the milk chocolate until completely melted and incorporated. Remove the tea bags from the cream mixture. Pour the cream mixture into the chocolate gradually and stir until completely combined. Once incorporated, add the remaining dark chocolate and stir to combine. If needed, place the bowl back on the double boiler on a low simmer until melted and smooth. Pour and spread the chocolate mixture into the 8x12 jelly roll pan. Sprinkle the top with chopped cranberries, toasted hazelnuts, and a couple pinches of sea salt. Let the chocolate sit at room temperature for two hours. Then, move to the refrigerator to set for at least another two hours. Cut the chocolate into random pieces with a knife. Eat immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Enjoy! Side note: You can substitute milk chocolate for some of the dark chocolate if preferred. Other nuts such as almonds or walnuts will work as well if hazelnuts are not on hand.

Mushroom Tomato Ragout with Soft Cheesy Polenta
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil. 1 whole Red Onion, Diced. 2 cloves Garlic, Diced. 18 cups Balsamic Vinegar. 12 ounces, weight Cremini Or Portabello Mushrooms, Diced. 1 Tablespoon Dried Thyme. 30 ounces, weight Diced Tomatoes. 2 cups Water. 2 cups Whole Milk. 1 cup Yellow Cornmeal. 4 ounces, weight Mascarpone Cheese. 1/4 cups Heavy Cream. 1/4 cups Grated Parmesan Cheese. Salt And Pepper, to taste.
1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven and saute the onions until just lightly browned, stirring often (4-5 minutes), then add in the garlic sauteing for about 2 minutes. 2. Add the balsamic vinegar and let it simmer on low, reducing slightly for about 5 minutes. It really infuses that great balsamic flavor into the mix. Next you want to add in the mushrooms and raise the temperature to medium-high heat. Cook the mushrooms until theyve just softened and have started to give off their juices, then add the thyme. 3. Once the mushrooms are softened add the tomatoes and cook until the mixture is thick and bubbling about 10-15 minutes. 4. In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the water and milk to boil. Slowly stir in the cornmeal, whisking constantly as you add it in to keep the polenta lump-free. 5. Cook, stirring constantly for 15 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone cheese and the cream, then season with salt and pepper and remove from heat. When youre done, dish up the polenta and top it with the ragout and some parmesan cheese. It is a surprisingly hearty and really flavorful meal thats perfect for fall or winter dishes!

Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits
3 cups All-purpose Flour. 1/2 cups Sugar, Granulated. 2 teaspoons Baking Powder. 1 teaspoon Baking Soda. 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoons Table Salt. 1/2 cups Vegetable Shortening. 23 cups Raisins. 1 cup Buttermilk. 2 cups Powdered Sugar. 4 Tablespoons Milk. 2 teaspoons Vegetable Oil. 1 teaspoon Cinnamon.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in vegetable shortening using a pastry blender or a fork until mixture is crumbly. Stir in raisins and buttermilk, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3 or 4 times. Roll dough to about 3/4 inch thickness and cut with a 3-inch biscuit cutter or a mini biscuit cutter. Place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Make sure not to twist the biscuits as you cut them. Just push down and then lift the biscuit up. Bake for about 12 minutes for 3-inch biscuits and for about 6-8 minutes for mini biscuits. Now for the glaze. Combine powdered sugar, milk, vegetable oil and cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir until completely mixed. Drizzle over hot biscuits or dip the tops of the biscuits in the glaze. I like to double dip mine for a nice thick glaze on top! Cooks notes: I found that these were tastiest when served warm. The glaze does harden up to a nice finish when it cools. Just pop these in the microwave for about 5 seconds to warm them up and serve! Original recipe modified from Taste of South magazine, Winter 2006.

Traditional Welsh Griddle Cakes
8 ounces, weight Self Raising Flour. 4 ounces, weight Butter. 3 ounces, weight Caster Sugar. 1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg. 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon. 3 ounces, weight Currants (optional). 1 whole Egg.
Rub the flour and butter together with the tips of your fingers until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and currants (if using). Add the egg and knead for 1-2 minutes until the mixture comes together into a dough. If it is too dry, you can add a tiny splash of milk (I didnt need to). Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and roll to 1/2cm thick. Use a round cutter to cut the dough into circles. Put a griddle pan or frying pan over a medium heat and grease it very lightly (I used spray oil, which worked perfectly). Once it has warmed up, turn the heat down to low and add 3-4 of the Welsh cakes. Cook for around 5 minutes each side, until the cakes are golden brown and just about firm (but they will continue to firm up as they cool). Transfer to a cooling rack, and continue to cook the Welsh cakes in batches.

Hours or a day before making the dumplings, cook the agar-agar in the chicken broth until completely dissolved. Pour into a shallow dish. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours until it gels. Mix all the filling ingredients. Dice the gelled agar-agar/broth into small pieces and mix with the filling ingredients. Refrigerate this mixture. To make the wrappers:. Mix flour and egg. Add water a little at a time until a soft but not sticky dough is formed. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Roll the dough into a long sausage, 1 inch in diameter. Cut the dough into walnut-sized pices, then roll them into round balls; cover the balls with a damp towel. You are now going to make crescent-shaped dumplings. Dust your work surface with a little flour. Roll a piece of dough into a paper-thin circle. Put about a tablespoon of filling (now including the gelled broth) in the center of the circle. Fold the circle in half to look like a half-moon. Pleat the top curved edge. Pinch the pleated edge and the unpleated edge together to seal. Gently tap the crescent's round bottom so that it can stand up. Place the crescent-shaped dumpling between towels. Make the remaining crescents in the same way. Place a layer of cheesecloth in the bottom of a steamer. Arrange the crescent dumplings on the cloth. Cover and steam over high heat for 10 minutes. Serve hot with ginger-vinegar-soy dip. To make the dip:. Mix all dip ingredients in a serving bowl, cover, and allow to stand at room temperature for at least 10 minutes before serving; it should keep for hours at room temperature.

Pumpkin and Shrimp Bisque
1 pound large shrimp (16 to 20). 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. 3/4 cup dry white wine. 3 cups homemade or canned low-sodium chicken stock. Pinch saffron threads (about 24). 2 ribs celery, coarsely chopped. 1 medium onion (about 8 ounces), coarsely chopped. 4 fresh bay laurel leaves, torn, or 2 dried. 3 3-inch springs fresh sage. 2 cups pumpkin puree, fresh (see Note) or canned. 1/2 cup heavy cream. About 3/4 teaspoon salt, less if using canned stock. Scant 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper. 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice. Freshly ground black pepper. 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage.
1. Shrimp stock: Peel and devein shrimp, reserving the shells. Cover the shrimp and refrigerate. Heat the olive oil in a medium (3-quart) heavy-bottomed saucepan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Add the shrimp shells to the pan and cook, stirring constantly, until they turn deep orange and are just beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. This steppan roasting the shellsgives the stock much of its flavor, so take the time to do it carefully. The roasted shells should release a concentrated, toasty, shrimp aroma that will fill your kitchen. Add the wine to the pan, first turning off gas flames to prevent the alcohol from igniting, then boil it over medium heat until all the liquid is evaporated. Add the chicken stock, saffron, celery, onion, bay leaves, and sage. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to the lowest setting. Partially cover the pan and simmer gently for 30 minutes. Strain the stock through a fine sieve, pushing down on the solids with the back of a spoon to extract all the liquid. Rinse out the saucepan and pour the stock back into it. 2. Soup: Whisk the pumpkin, cream, salt (omit if using canned stock), and cayenne into the shrimp stock. Bring the soup to a simmer, then cook very gently uncovered over low heat for 10 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, taste, and season with black pepper and more salt if needed. (The soup can be made up to this point up to 1 day ahead store covered in the refrigerator. Keep the peeled shrimp in a resealable bag buried in a bowl of ice in the refrigerator.) 3. Finishing the soup: Pour the olive oil into a large saute pan placed over medium heat. When hot, add the reserved shrimp and sage and cook, tossing often, until the shrimp is just cooked through, pink, and no longer translucent, but not curled into a circle, 2 to 3 minutes. They should still have a tender snap when you bite into them. Arrange the shrimp in warmed serving bowls or a tureen. Bring the soup back to a simmer and then ladle it over the shrimp. Serve right away. Substitute winter squash puree, such as butternut or acorn, for the pumpkin.

Spiced Chicken & Couscous
3 cups fat-free chicken broth. 2 cups water. 14-12 teaspoon hot pepper sauce. 1 13 cups couscous. 2 teaspoons lemon juice. 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs or 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes. 3 zucchini (medium or large cut into strips, see preparation notes below). 2 carrots, cut into 3 inch strips. 14 cup currants or 14 cup dark raisin. 3 tablespoons blanched slivered almonds. 1 12 teaspoons cumin. 1 teaspoon turmeric. 1 teaspoon ginger. 1 teaspoon cinnamon. 12 teaspoon coriander. 12 teaspoon black pepper.
To prepare the zucchini, cut into 3 inch logs and split lengthwise in halves. Trim out the soft seeded center. Cut the halves lengthwise into strips about 1/2 inch thick on the outside. For color variation, you can replace one of the zucchini with a yellow summer squash. Mix together the spices in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1/3 of the spice blend and rub into the chicken cubes. In a large saucepan bring the water, broth, hot sauce to a boil. Add in the remaining spice blend. Reduce to a high simmer and cook 3 minutes. Place the couscous in a covered bowl along with the lemon juice. Add 1 1/3 cups of the hot spiced broth from the saucepan and cover. Let it sit until you are ready to serve. Add the chicken and carrots to the simmering broth and cook for 3 minutes. Add the zucchini and cook an additional 2 minutes. (I like my squash fairly crisp, if you prefer it more tender then add it a bit earlier. Just make sure the total cooking time is the same.) Add the currants or raisins and cook for a final minute. Using a fork fluff the couscous and place the grains on a serving plate. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken, veggies and raisins to the top of the couscous. (Alternately, you can shape the couscous in a ring and place the meat and vegetables in the center. ). Sprinkle almonds on top. Serve the spicy broth alongside. If you like a thicker sauce, quickly whisk in a bit of cornstarch or arrowroot into the broth and bring to a quick boil for a minute to thicken.

** Notes: If you are using nuts, I recommend that you add a mixture of slivered almonds, cashews and pistachios. But really you can add any nut of your choice. Add 1/4 cup or a handful or whatever you need. You can find rose water at an Indian grocery store or at Whole Foods. Optional step: In a small saucepan heat about 4 tablespoons of clarified butter. Once its hot add the raisins. Remove the raisins from the butter when they swell up. Then add the nuts (add one type at a time) and remove them once they turn golden brown. Place the nuts and raisins to the side. Discard the clarified butter. 1. In a non-stick sauce pan combine, milk, semolina, condensed milk, 1/2 tablespoon clarified butter, cardamom powder and grated nutmeg. Mix all these ingredients with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. 2. Place the pan on low heat and stir frequently. Be patient. It will take some time to thicken. 3. Once the pudding starts to thicken add the vanilla and rose water. Keep stirring. 4. Once it comes to a boil take off the heat. Add the raisins and nuts and mix them in quickly. Remove the pudding from the pan and put it in a container. At this point the pudding will still be runny, it will thicken as it cools.

Heirloom Tomato Tart
1 piece frozen puff pastry, thawed. 1 egg white. 4 medium tomatoes (heirloom in different colors). 3 tablespoons whole grain mustard. sea salt. 1 shallot, thinly sliced and slices separated into rings. 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme.
Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to about a 12- by 15 rectangle. Place on the prepared pan and flip over a 1/2-inch border, using water to hold down the edges and then crimping with a fork. Whisk the egg white with 1 tablespoon water, and brush this over the edge of the tart. Prick the inside of the tart in several places with the fork. Par-bake until lightly browned and slightly cooked in the center, 12-15 minutes. Let cool slightly. Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes in half through the equator, then gently squeeze to remove seeds and excess liquid. Slice into 1/8 to 1/4 inch-thick slices. Spread the prepared crust evenly with the mustard, then layer the tomatoes on top in alternate colors, overlapping them by about 1/2 inch and arranging them tightly within the edges (they will shrink a bit). Season well with sea salt, then top with the shallot rings and thyme. Cook until the tomatoes are softened and the crust is cooked through in the center, 20-25 minutes.

Crock Pot Candy
16 ounces unsalted dry roasted peanuts. 16 ounces lightly salted dry roasted salted peanuts. 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips. 12 ounces white chocolate chips. 16 ounces vanilla bark (I always use almond) or 16 ounces almond bark (I always use almond).
I whirl my peanuts in the food processor just to grind them a bit but if you prefer just go ahead and use them as is. Pour peanuts into a large crock-pot; add chips and vanilla or almond bark. Cover and turn setting on low. Now get busy with something else for an hour or so. When you come back, stir mixture with a large spoon making sure all the peanuts are well coated. Using whatever size spoon is appropriate for you, (I use a small cooking scoop and it just fills the mini muffin cake liners) spoon out on a cookie sheet and let harden. Keep crock-pot on, no big rush, this is a generous recipe and you will have plenty. When sufficiently hard place in festive containers. Don't expect it to last very long because each piece is filled with a wonderful taste of chocolate and is chock full of peanuts.

Fold the dry ingredients into the creamed mix with a large metal spoon; do this in 3 stages, being careful not to overmix and tighten the batter. Divide the batter evenly between 2 bowls - the best was to make sure you've divided it accurately is to use weighing scales. Add a drop of red colouring to one bowl and a drop of yellow colouring to the other; pale pink and yellow are more attractive than bright colours, which look too synthetic. Gently fold the colouring in, being particularly careful not to handle the mixture too heavily. If using a baking tray, place one of the mixes on one side of the tray and spread it over half the tray widthways as evenly as you can, making sure it is level. Place the waxed divider in the tin, then add the second mix on the empty side of the tray and level it with a palette knife as evenly as possible. If using a Battenburg tin, spoon in the mix as per the maker's instructions. Bake in the centre of the oven for 40-45 minutes, until the cake is golden brown and springs back when gently pressed, or a knife comes out clean when inserted in the centre. Leave the cake to cool in the tin. If you have used a baking tin, it will be easier to cut the cake when it is completely cold. Once the cake has cooled, refrigerate it for at least an hour, until it feels firm enough to cut. If possible, leave it in the fridge for 24 hours, then it will be easier to handle and assemble it. Remove the card by cutting either side of it with a sharp knife and then pulling it away. Place a piece of baking parchment on top of the cake and cover it with a clean tray, flat-side to the cake. Flip the cake over on to the clean tray. Slide the cake from the tray on to a clean, level work surface and remove the baking paper from the top of the cake. Bring the apricot preserve to the boil in a small pan and press it through a fine sieve to remove the pieces of fruit. Take the yellow price of cake and make sure the side that was on the base of the baking tray is facing up. Brush the surface with the hot apricot preserve. Place the pink section of the cake into equal strips approximately 2.5cm wide. As you do this, flip each strip over so the cut side is up and the side that were the top and bottom of the cake are either side of the cut section, which will be yellow and pink. Lay the pieces next to each other so they touch. They should all be equal heights and widths at this stage. Using the same knife, cut the skin (the brown layer that was the top and bottom of the cake) from each strip. This can be done easily if you flipped the strips. You need to keep the knife as close to the skin as possible so you do not cut away too much cake. Your cake strips should now be lying pink, yellow, pink, yellow next to each other, still touching, and still be equal in width and height. Brush hot apricot preserve over the entire surface of the laid-out strips. Now flip one section over on to the next to create the 4 squares. Do this twice to make 2 sets of 4 squares (there will be a couple of strips left over, which you can use to make half a cake). Trim off either end of the sandwich blocks so they are neat and tidy. Dust a work surface with the sifted icing sugar and roll out the marzipan so it is the same length as your cakes but 4 times as wide as each sandwiched block of 4 squares. Do not roll the marzipan too thinly; it should be about 3-4mm/1/8 inch thick. Brush the marzipan with the edge of the left-hand side of the marzipan. Now roll the block up in the marzipan, turning the block over to your right. Trim away the excess marzipan so there is a nice clean join. Take a clean, dry pastry brush and brush off any icing sugar from the marzipan-wrapped cake, then use a pair of cake crimpers to crimp the top of the marzipan at the edges. Roll up the second cake in the remaining marzipan in the same way.

Strawberry Rhubarb Fruit Leather
1 pint Strawberries (frozen Or Fresh). 1 pint Rhubarb Pieces (frozen Or Fresh_. 1/4 cups 2 Tablespoons Sugar.
Preheat your oven to the lowest temperature it will go. Thats 170 degrees F for my oven. Place all of the ingredients in a pot and heat over medium heat. Smash fruit a bit with a potato masher. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into a food processor. Blend until smooth. Line two rimmed baking sheets with plastic wrap. Spread the fruit mixture evenly on the baking sheets. If your baking sheets are large, you may have to spread the fruit on only one sheet. You want the puree to be about 1/8 inch deep. Alternatively, spread the puree on the fruit leather sheets of your food dehydrator. Dehydrate for 6 to 12 hours, until the puree is not tacky. The dehydrating time will depend on the temperature of your oven or dehydrator and how thickly you spread the puree. Once the fruit leather is done, cut it, roll it, and enjoy it!

{Beijinhos De Coco} Brazilian Coconut Treats
1 (397 g) can condensed milk. 100 g coconut flakes, plus extra for rolling. 1 tablespoon butter, plus extra for rolling. 16 cloves, for decorating.
In a pan add the condensed milk, 100g of coconut flakes and the butter. Now the fun begins! Over medium heat start stirring. And keep stirring until the mixture thickens and you can see the bottom of the pan for a good few seconds before the mixture levels out again. This is really important. This process should take at least 6-7 min, dont rush it or it wont be the right consistency to roll into balls. Leave it to cool, about 15min or enough so that it is cool to handle and it has hardened up a little. Grab the flakes you had reserved for rolling. You can do 2 things here: 1) Use them as they are to roll or 2) Blitz them so that they are super fine. I blitzed them as I like the outside texture to be soft. But it is totally up to you if you decide to do this. Coat your hands in a little butter (just so that the mixture doesnt stick) and start making your balls. I like mine the size of a little smaller than a measuring tablespoon. Once all rolled out put one clove in the midle for decoration. This is traditional and for decoration. Remove it before eating and it does leave a nice taste.

Bacon Stuffed Waffles
2 cups Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Complete Pancake And Waffle Mix. 1- 1/2 cup Cold Water. 13 cups Canola Oil. 11 slices Your Favorite Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled. Syrup And Powdered Sugar, To Serve.
To make the batter, add the waffle mix to a large mixing bowl. Add in the water and oil, and mix until there are no more lumps. Fold in the crumbled bacon, and set aside for at least 5 minutes. During this rest time, heat your waffle iron. Once the iron is hot, spray cooking spray on the grates, then ladle in enough of the waffle batter to fill in the base of the waffle iron. Turn the iron, and cook for about 4 minutes, turn, and continue to cook for a couple of more minutes, or until the waffle is a golden brown. Remove the waffle, and slice your waffle. Repeat with the remaining waffles. I must say there is some excitement when you serve these bacon-stuffed waffles. The surprise of bacon hanging off the edge of the waffles gets everyone excited and anxious to try them. The crisp exterior, along with the soft interior goes really well with smoky bacon, especially when served with syrup and powdered sugar. If you are looking for a new idea, and a real family pleaser, these waffles are a must. Hope you enjoy.

HEAT oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with no-stick cooking spray. COMBINE apples, caramel syrup and toffee bits; set aside. LAY phyllo pastry sheets flat under a sheet of plastic wrap. Place a slightly damp kitchen towel over the plastic wrap. Removing one sheet of pastry at a time, spray completely with cooking spray. Top with another sheet of phyllo pastry; spray with cooking spray. Repeat until four sheets of phyllo are stacked. CUT the stacked pastry into 2 equal rectangles. Place 1/3 cup apple mixture 1 inch from a short edge of the dough. Fold long edges in about 1/2-inch, then roll, beginning with filling end, until a cylinder (egg-roll shape) is formed. Repeat with other half of dough. Repeat with remaining sheets of phyllo and apple filling. PLACE each roll on prepared baking sheet. Spray tops of each roll with cooking spray. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until pastries are golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. PLACE 2 rolls on each of 4 dessert plates; drizzle with caramel sundae syrup and serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.
