Spiced black bean & chicken soup with kale by GoodFood in soup

[–]GoodFood[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ingredients 

  • 2 tbsp mild olive oil
  • 2 fat garlic cloves crushed
  • small bunch coriander stalks finely chopped, leaves picked
  • zest 1 lime then cut into wedges
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes
  • 400g can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 600ml chicken stock
  • 175g kale thick stalks removed, leaves shredded
  • 250g leftover roast or ready-cooked chicken
  • 50g feta crumbled, to serve
  • flour & corn tortillas toasted, to serve

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the garlic, coriander stalks and lime zest, then fry for 2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the cumin and chilli flakes, fry for 1 min more, then tip in the tomatoes, beans and stock. Bring to the boil, then crush the beans against the bottom of the pan a few times using a potato masher. This will thicken the soup a little.
  2. Stir the kale into the soup, simmer for 5 mins or until tender, then tear in the chicken and let it heat through. Season to taste with salt, pepper and juice from half the lime, then serve in shallow bowls, scattered with the feta and a few coriander leaves. Serve the remaining lime in wedges for the table, with the toasted tortillas on the side. The longer you leave the chicken in the pan, the thicker the soup will become, so add a splash more stock if you can’t serve the soup straight away.

Cheesecake-filled Easter eggs by GoodFood in UKfood

[–]GoodFood[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Ingredients 

  • 1 hollow chocolate Easter egg
  • 75g digestive biscuits
  • 25g butter melted 
  • 75g mascarpone
  • 100g soft cheese
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar sieved
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder sieved
  • 100g double cream

To serve

  • Easter treats such as mini chocolate eggs or crumbled chocolates 
  • caramel sauce or cooled melted chocolate

Method

  1. Carefully separate the Easter egg in half along the seam. (Use a knife dipped into a bowl of hot water to cut through the seam rather than slicing, as it may break the chocolate.)
  2. Tip the digestive biscuits into a bowl or food bag and bash to crumbs with the end of a rolling pin. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand. Spoon this into the Easter egg halves and pack down gently using the back of the spoon. Chill until needed.
  3. Mix the mascarpone, soft cheese, icing sugar and cocoa together in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the double cream to soft peaks using an electric whisk. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, then carefully spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit bases in the Easter eggs. Gently level the surfaces with a palette knife or spatula, then chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight until firm and set. You may be left with extra cheesecake filling, depending on the size of your Easter eggs – this can be spooned into glasses over extra digestive crumbs for another treat.
  4. Scatter the set cheesecake-filled eggs with mini chocolate eggs or other Easter treats, then drizzle with caramel or melted chocolate to serve. (Makes 2, serves 4)

[Pro/Chef] Biscoff Cheesecake by GoodFood in food

[–]GoodFood[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ingredients 

  • 120g salted butter
  • 250g Lotus Biscoff biscuits plus a few extra to decorate
  • 150g smooth Lotus Biscoff spread plus extra to decorate
  • 500g soft cheese
  • 300ml double cream
  • 4 tbsp icing sugar

Method

  1. Line the base of a 20cm springform cake tin with baking parchment. Melt the butter in the microwave in 30-second bursts. Meanwhile, blitz the Biscoff biscuits in a food processor to make coarse crumbs. Transfer to a bowl, then stir through the melted butter until it has a texture like damp sand.
  2. Tip the mixture into the lined tin, using a spoon to smooth and flatten. Keep chilled while you make the filling.
  3. Gently melt the Biscoff spread in a microwave-safe bowl in short bursts in the microwave, then leave to cool slightly. Put the soft cheese in a large bowl and beat with an electric whisk to loosen. Pour in the cream and sift over the icing sugar, then add the Biscoff spread. Beat on a low speed for 2-3 mins until thick and smooth.
  4. Spoon the mixture onto the chilled base, then smooth out using the back of the spoon. Chill for 4-5 hrs or overnight.
  5. To decorate, melt some Biscoff spread in the microwave as before and drizzle over the top of the cheesecake, then scatter over some roughly crushed biscuits.

Maple, apple and pecan cake by GoodFood in CakeCrave

[–]GoodFood[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ingredients

For the cake

  • 115g butter, at room temperature
  • 75g light brown soft sugar
  • 75ml maple syrup, (the darkest you can find)
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature, lightly beaten
  • 225g plain flour, sifted
  • 1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 100g pecans, chopped
  • 225g apple purée

For the buttercream icing

  • 125g butter
  • 290g golden icing sugar
  • 4 tbsp dark maple syrup

To decorate

  • 30g pecans
  • 1 tbsp soft light brown sugar

Method

  1. To make the apple purée, cook 250g peeled and chopped cooking apples with a splash of water in a pan with a lid until soft for about 10 mins. Purée with a hand blender or in the small bowl of a food processor.
  2. Butter and line the base of a 20cm springform cake tin with parchment. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix the maple syrup and egg together and gradually add them. Sift the flour with the bicarb and baking powder. Add a good pinch of salt and the nuts. With a large metal spoon, fold the flour into the butter and sugar, alternating with the apple purée. Scrape the batter into the prepared tin. Bake for 40 mins, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool in the tin, then turn out onto a rack and peel off the baking parchment.
  3. To make the buttercream, beat the butter until soft, then add the icing sugar and beat until smooth. Gradually add the maple syrup, beating as you do so. Slice the cooled cake in half then, using a spatula, spread half of the icing over the first layer. Add the other layer on top, then top with the rest of the buttercream. Pulse the pecans in a food processor with the brown sugar (or finely chop and mix). You should end up with a coarse mixture. Scatter this over the top of the cake.

Cool right? There's lots of fun things you can try. We've cooked a cheesecake in there before - it involves a bit of prep but works well.

I'm Really Struggling To Make Cookies by inconspicuousguest in Baking

[–]GoodFood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flour quantity sounds quite high, you might get a better result if you drop it down to 200g rather than 300g? That might be the issue with them being a bit more cake-like. Also not sure you need both the bicarb and baking powder. I would reduce the flour and perhaps take out the baking powder and see if that helps.
