quick apple and pecan strudel with cinnamon

Solid recipe. But first time I made it, the inner filo layer remained a little undercooked with it being in contact with the apples. Also, putting cinnamon with the apples is my preference over mixing it with the sugar and nuts. <br />

Does anyone have the recipe Pear Tartin in the Cook with Jamie "My Guide to Making you a Better Cook". My book is in storage and I would love to cook this on the weekend for a dinner party!! Last time I cooked it everyone loved it.

We had the Quick Apple and Pecan Strudel on Christmas Day. Fabulous! I've never tasted a strudel so good. The apples, sliced finely, held their shape but were cooked to perfection. This dessert is quick to make; it was put together after we had eaten the turkey so we had a rest between the main course and the dessert. It was just divine and I shall be making it again and again!

Jamie, seioursly, the recipe for strudel is absolutely terrible - I don't believe you can have made this before! The apples did not cook properly, there is no mention of brushing the top of the studel liberally with butter so that it does not flake apart in the oven. Don't make the same mistake I did of attempting to make it!

ahhhhh

In your "Jamie at home Christmas Special" shown this week in New Zealand .You did something interesting with Christmas Mince. Please could I have the recipe it looked absolutely delicious, without the pepper of course!

Anyone can give me the recipe ogf the chocolate fudge cake with ice choc toppin'?Please....

Hi, can anyone tell me which book this was from, and can the strudel be made in advance of dinner guests coming round- ie in the afternoon, and then perhaps kept in the fridge until ready to cook? thanks

I also used 2 sheets of pastry for the first layer and morello cherries instead of cranberries then a few drops of almond essence mixed in with the apples. Reminded me so much of a Cherry Streudel I had on a dinner cruise on the Danube River in Budapest. Rave reviews from my dinner guests that night !!

Jean! Thanks a bunch for all the great help and recipes :)

For BRITTNI -


Jamie's Party Cake recipe from his book " The Return of the Naked Chef"

3 rounded tablespoons cocoa powder
200gr/7oz caster sugar
200gr/7oz butter
3 large eggs
200gr/7oz self raising flour, sifted
1 rounded teaspoon baking powder
1 handful of flaked almonds
200ml/7fl oz double cream (heavy cream)
1 large handful of raspberries
1 large handful of strawberries

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4.

Line the bases of 2 x 20cm/8 inch cake tins with greased greaseproof paper.

Mix the cocoa powder with 4 tablespoons of boiling water until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the sugar and butter until fluffy, add the cocoa mixture, eggs, flour and baking powder. Mix well, fold in the nuts. Divide the mixture between the tins. Bake for about 25 minutes. When cooked, allow to cool then remove from the tins.

Chocolate Topping -

100gr/4oz butter
100gr/4oz best cooking chocolate
100gr/4oz icing sugar
3 tablespoons milk

Melt the chocolate topping ingredients in a bowl over some slightly simmering water. Stir until blended well and allow to cool.

Whip the double cream to soft peaks and sweeten with a little sugar.

To assemble the cake, remove the greaseproof paper from both sponges. Drizzle each one with a little sherry, if you like. Spread the cream over one of the sponges, then sprinkle the fruit on top. Sandwich the second sponge on top and press down. Run a knife around the edge of the cake to smooth it off and drizzle over the chocolate topping.
Happy days, you've done it! But allow the chocolate topping to firm up slightly before tucking in.

this recipe sounds and looks very yummy. but i was actually wondering if u have the recipe for the chocolate sponge cake that was made on one of the episodes of oliver twist. it had cream and berries on it please get back to me anyone if u knw of this recipe

Hi I am looking for a rice pudding recipe that you made on one of your shows about 3 weeks ago it was made with strawberry jam Thanks Jenny

For KIM -

5gr plain flour (00 works really well),
100 mls milk
50gr caster sugar
70gr butter
Vanilla extract

1. Mix the flour and a splash of the milk to a paste. Add the rest of the milk to this paste and put into a small saucepan. Heat gently, stirring constantly until the mix boils. Simmer, stirring constantly, for three minutes. Leave to one side to cool.
2. Cream together the butter and sugar. This is best done with an electric hand mixer as you need to cream the butter and sugar until it is no longer grainy and has become very pale.
3. Check the flour and milk mix has cooled.
4. When cooled use the electric hand mixer again to combine the creamed butter and sugar mixture with the flour and milk mix. Add the vanilla extract at this point. Beat together until the mock cream is light and airy. This may take a moment or two.

For LOLLY -

You really don't expect Jamie to answer everyones questions, do you? Surely the fact that he has provided this wonderful website with so much information is proof that he is VERY interested.

He does post on the Forums regularly.

Personally I have answered lots of questions and supplied recipes and links, but no one has come back and said thank you. I would say they are really not interested.

Hi, I'm from Brazil and love the gastronomy. Your recipes are all wonderful! Congratulations for your talent! Brazil have many delicious recipes too.You are all invited to prove!
Thanks
Ana Lúcia

Does anyone know how to make synthetic cream? I've searched online and only ever found one recipe but it was not the cream I meant.
Its the really sweet white cream only ever found in bakerys, please anyone?!

Very sweet but tasty. I didn't have muscovado sugar so had to use molasses. I also overcooked it and it turned out very much like Baklava!
One suggestion, use two layers of Filo for the first (outside) layer, or it splits too easily. All the family loved this one.

has anybody noticed that jamie never replies to anybodys comments/questions......
he's really not interested

Hi! I also live in Spain and found filo in El Corte Inglés. They have it where Pat says and also in frozen products section. I looked everywhere for it in order to make this recipe!!!
Thanks Jamie for making dinners with friends a success!

Hi Pat I´m from Spain too, I found the Filo Pastry in :
El corte Ingles, normally is in the section of fresh pasta. Hope you find it.

Gem.

Hi all:
Im an Spanish girl who loves all your recipes, especially desserts. I think English desserts are gorgeous! I will make that recipe because it is great. Well if someone want, we can interchange recipes, mix cultures, traditions, tastes, colours...
Cooking is wonderful !!

Thanks for all
Patricia

OMG. this looks like a somsoa

I made this on Sunday for a family BBQ was a big favorite and very quick and easy to make. Just make sure the filo doesn't dry up because it makes it hard when you roll it up!
