Nectarine Eton mess Recipe


Preheat oven to 100°C and line a large baking tray with baking paper.

For the meringue, in a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whisk 2 egg whites, 110g caster sugar and 1/3 tsp cream of tartar (or 3/4 tsp lemon juice) for 15 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and mixture is thick and glossy. 

Spoon meringue onto the prepared tray. Place in oven. Bake for 1 hour 10 minutes or until outside is crisp and dry. Turn off oven and leave in oven to cool completely.

Preheat the oven again to 175°C

Halve 4 yellow nectarines and place them, cut-side up, in a baking dish. Drizzle with 2 tbsp orange blossom water, scatter with 50g caster sugar and add 125ml water. Cover dish with baking paper, then foil. Bake for 30 minutes or until tender. Cool completely.

Meanwhile, place 80g blueberries, 1,5 tbs water and 30g sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until syrupy. Cool completely.

Break the meringues into shards and divide among bowls. 

Whisk 150ml double cream and 20g sugar to soft peaks, then whisk in 50g creme fraiche until thick and combined. Spoon over meringue. 

Spoon over nectarines, cooking juices and blueberry mixture. 

Scatter over crushed, roasted shortbread and serve immediately.

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
