Strawberry Spoon Cake

I made this last summer and it was a big success, and so of course I had to make it again this summer. So, so good and so quick and easy - you have to give it a go.

Yield:4 servings
  • ½cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted, plus more for greasing
  • 5ounces/145 grams frozen and thawed or fresh, hulled strawberries (about 1 cup)
  • ⅔cup/150 grams packed light brown sugar
  • ½cup/120 milliliters whole milk, at room temperature
  • ½teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1cup/130 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1teaspoon baking powder
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

 

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8-inch (square or round) baking dish with butter. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Using your hands or the back of a fork, mash the berries to release all their juices, and stir in ⅓ cup of the brown sugar. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, remaining ⅓ cup brown sugar, milk and salt, then add the flour and baking powder and continue whisking just until the batter is smooth. Transfer the batter (it’s not much) to the greased baking dish, and spread evenly into corners.

  4. Step 4

    Spoon the strawberries and all their juices over the top of the cake batter. Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or just when a toothpick comes out clean in the center. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 3 to 5 minutes before spooning into bowls. Serve warm with ice cream.

Either: 2.Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Remove meat and vegetables from marinade, and place on a large sheet of aluminum foil; seal. Discard marinade. 3.Place on grill, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or to desired doneness. Or Stirfry with chilli and fresh onions.

Paneer!

Half gallon Whole Milk and one lime is all you need. Bring the milk to a boil, then simmer down and add the juice of lime while stirring. You will see the milk part separating from water. Strain it and let it stand in the strainer for an hour or hour and a half. Now, dump the Paneer from the strainer onto a cutting board and cut small cubes out of it.

Grilled lemonade

By Angelique -
halve a couple lemons, dip them in sugar and pop them on the grill for a few minutes. Meanwhile, make a simple syrup by combining sugar, honey and a few sprigs of rosemary – which can and should be heated on the grill. Squeeze the charred lemons into a pitcher, add the syrup and dilute the juice with water to taste. Of course you can always bring it to the next level by adding vodka, rum, gin or even bourbon.
