Today, The Best Dishes Ever is dedicated to the children, | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
keeping them happy with a range of recipes that we know they love. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
And guess what? | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
We've grown up to love them too. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
We're starting with a dash through not one dish, not two, | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
not three, but four - a chilli, a cheese pie | 0:00:32 | 0:00:36 | |
and the wonderfully named beany mince and rumpy-pumpy soup, | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
all cooked for the Hairy Bikers | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
when they were visiting the lovely Maureen on a trip to Scotland | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
for their show Mum Knows Best. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
Take it away, Maureen. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:49 | |
Before we arrived, Maureen had made us one of her mum's cheese pies. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
It's a simple recipe - layers of mashed potato | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
and strong Cheddar cheese | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
with breadcrumbs and more grated cheese on the top. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
So, has that been handed down, your recipe? | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Yes, it was my gran's recipe, I think. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
-Oh, it smells wonderful. -It's lovely, isn't it? | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
-Oh, you temptress! -I've not been called that before. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
I've never seen your cheese pie before, have I? | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
-That's why, you know! -How often would you cook this, Maureen? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Probably once a week. But definitely after the kids had been ill. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:25 | |
That was their getting better food. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
What's lovely about it is, there's a care to it. It's not bought. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:32 | |
-You can buy that but that's not the point. -You can't buy that. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
-You can't. -That's MY cheese pie. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Exactly, exactly. And it's your kids'. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
And it belongs to YOUR family and that's so special. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
I've got a family recipe for rumpy-pumpy soup. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:47 | |
Why do you call it rumpy-pumpy soup? | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
Well, my dad started it off by calling it that | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
because of the detrimental effect that it has on your system. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
-Pump? -Mmm-hmm. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Maureen's wind-producing soup has root vegetables and lentils | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
cooked down with a ham hock. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
-That's the hock. -That's the hock. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:04 | |
I would put that in and just let it heat through. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
When the children were small, they didn't like the ham in the soup, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
so I used to make sandwiches | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
separately for the adults and the children had liquidised soup. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
There was one more recipe that Maureen really wanted to show us, | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
one that had grown up with her kids. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
What are you going to cook now, Maureen? | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
-We're going to cook beany mince. -Beany mince? -Yeah. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
That sounds a bit pumpy as well. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
That's a common theme in our family. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
A lot of methane produced. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
You could make a turbine go round, your family. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
'Maureen taught all her kids to cook beany mince, but now it was my turn. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
'I have a feeling I'm going to get bossed around.' | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Do you put oil in? I don't. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
-Don't you? -No. -No. -Non-stick pan. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Yeah, you don't need oil, not with mince, cos of the fat in the mince. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
I'll be a minute. Shurrup! | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
Is he quite slow, usually? | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
He is. He says he's part of that slow food movement. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-I just think he's a bit kind of slow. -He's a slow cooker! | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
If I can't cook mince at this point, after five years on the telly, | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
I'm in serious trouble, aren't I? | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
Maureen, where did this recipe come from? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
It was another one of my mum's recipes. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
The next recipe I'm going to show you, though, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
shall we say the progression from beany mince, is my own. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
'Maureen is splitting the mince to make two recipes - | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
'her chilli for the adults | 0:03:28 | 0:03:29 | |
'but first, her beany mince for the kids.' | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
-For beany mince, we need carrots and turnip. -Now, viewers, what's that? | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
Beans. What's that? Beans. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
These are beans for the chilli and these are beans for the beany mince. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
So the beany mince beans go in that pan there | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
with the beany mince vegetables | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
that's already been beany mincing. Do you want it all, madam? | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
-Yes, please. -Thank you. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
-Tomato puree. How much, madam? -A generous zhoosh. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:56 | |
-A glass of red wine would be nice in it. -This is for children! | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
You burn off the alcohol. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
The other half of Maureen's mince is to become chilli for the adults. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
-Right, who's on the chilli? -Moi. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
-Moi! -Go on, dude. I'll tell you what, it's hell in there. It's hell! | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
-Tomatoes. Give it a stir. -Yes, boss. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
-Mr King. -Yes, darling. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
Would you please give me some garlic - two cloves of garlic. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
-Do you want them crushed? -Yes, please. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
Thank you. On their way, love. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
Right, we've got the mince, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:26 | |
the onions, tomatoes, garlic, stock cube and water. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:31 | |
What's next, Maureen? | 0:04:31 | 0:04:32 | |
Now I would just add the kidney beans - the red kidney beans - | 0:04:32 | 0:04:37 | |
and about a teaspoonful of chilli flakes. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
Having an alternative on the stove | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
means that ingredients can go in that the kids aren't so keen on. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
I would let that cook until the mince is well cooked. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
-Then season. -And then season. -Right. Well done! | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
To test Nana's recipes, Granddad arrives with Georgia and Alexis. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
I think it's your favourites as well - rumpy-pumpy soup, I heard. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
Yes! | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
-Good timing. -Fabulous! -Over here? | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
-There. -There? Lovely, thank you. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
Here we go. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
'It's time for a proper family dinner.' | 0:05:10 | 0:05:11 | |
What's first, Maureen? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
-First up is Alexis' favourite, rumpy-pumpy soup. -ALL: Yeah! | 0:05:13 | 0:05:18 | |
-Do you like the taste or the effect? -Hmm. Taste. -A bit of both. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:23 | |
It must be great for you seeing the third generation | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
enjoying the food that you enjoyed as a child. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
-Yes. Would you pass that up, please? -Of course I will. There you are. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
-And enjoying it. -It's lovely. It's really tasty. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
-Really hearty, really healthy. -And it's really pumpy. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
'True family favourites, like Maureen's, | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
'are often just kept inside Mum's head, not written down.' | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
It took a very long time to get the recipe out of Mum | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
because there wasn't really a recipe to start off with. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
It was just a little bit of this and a little bit of that. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
But it's just such an easy soup and the girls absolutely love it. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
'Their next family favourites are...' | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
-Oh! -Beany Mince. -Yes! | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
-Nana's chilli. -Right! | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
'Both Barry and Elaine have brought their own versions.' | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
-Oh! I see! -That's with a bit of zhoo-zhoosh. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
-Ah, you've got zhoosh. -Zhoosh. -And Mummy's chilli. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
-So, you've all... You've all done versions of your Mum's food. -Yes. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:22 | |
And this, I've got to keep away from Elaine | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
because this is her favourite. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
-It's cheese pie, is it? -It's cheese pie. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
-Oh, yes, look at that! -There you are, my dear. -Oh, man! | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
Cheese pie. It's fantastic, isn't it? | 0:06:33 | 0:06:37 | |
It is brilliant! | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
-I start beany and work round that way. -OK. -It's the beany one. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
It's nice. It's very sweet. You can taste the turnip as well. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
-It's a great one for children. -Oh, yeah. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
'The chilli that Barry now makes is spicier than his mum's, | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
'and zhooshed up with lime and coriander, | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
'but Elaine's is a simpler mince, with fewer veggies.' | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
I love that progression from all these. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
The beany mince is the birth of the children of the chilli. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
-Yeah! -It's just great. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
It's like Darwin's stages of evolution, isn't it? | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
-It is, yeah. -You know. And then one day man walked. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
-Quickly. -Then one day, man came - Barry with some zhoosh! | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
-LAUGHTER -And that was it! | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
How important is it to you that this is still evolving | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
and this is still happening | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
and you've another generation coming on now | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
that are enjoying those dishes? | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
Somehow it's how I express my love for my family. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
-The proof of it's on the table, Maureen. -I hope so. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
Next, with something that's usually a hit with children | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
and great for a kids' party - sausage rolls. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
So here's a top-quality version. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
This is Paul Hollywood showing fellow chef Glynn Purnell | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
how to make them jumbo style. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
I made big sausage rolls, packed full of flavour | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
and I'm quite fussy about the pastry - no surprises there. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
But it all starts with the filling. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
Basically, choose whatever sausage meat you like. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
I've just got a sausage meat I like, a bit of pork sausage, | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
a little bit of thyme in there as well. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
If you can pop that in there with that | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
and rip a bit of thyme off and mix it up for us. Thank you. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
So, to move on, I'm going to use | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
and I'm going to make a proper puff pastry. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
'Into a bowl of 50/50 plain and strong flour, I add two eggs, salt | 0:08:25 | 0:08:31 | |
'and some water to bring it all together. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
'Puff pastry has a reputation for being difficult | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
'but it's not at all. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
'You just need to know what you're doing, so listen up.' | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
Puff pastry's all about the difference between cold and hot. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
-Mmm-hmm. -If you can get your dough | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
as cold as possible as quickly as possible, | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
then you'll end up with something | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
that, when you put it in the oven, will just go boof! | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
-It'll just explode in an oven. -OK. And does that make it crispier? | 0:08:55 | 0:08:59 | |
The crispiness comes from the temperature and the butter. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
A good quality butter is key with a good puff pastry. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
I tend to use Normandy butter, French butter. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
Slightly higher melting temperature | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
means you can manipulate it more in the dough. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
Therefore, if you get a cheap butter, you'll tend to find | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
that in the dough itself, | 0:09:15 | 0:09:17 | |
it will melt out the side as you're laminating it, | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
as you're folding it. That's a bad sign. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
Has the Normandy one got more oil content in it? | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
It's the carotin levels you've got to be careful of. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
-You know those brightly coloured ones? -Yeah. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
-You want something a bit toned down. -Yeah. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
They're the ones, generally, that are better to use. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
'After a few minutes working the dough, | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
'wrap it and chill it in the fridge, preferably for two hours.' | 0:09:36 | 0:09:40 | |
I've got one which I have chilled and I've also got some butter. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
I'll show you what I'll do with that in a minute. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
'Now roll out your chilled pastry in a thin rectangular shape, | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
'big enough to accommodate the butter | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
'for the all-important turning process. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
'You need to have rolled out your butter | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
between two sheets of greaseproof paper | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
'so it's thin enough to fold inside the dough.' | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
Get your butter, pop it on your dough. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
Take it all the way down to the corners | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
and then with this bit here... | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
That's perfect. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:14 | |
With this bit here that's exposed, a third of it, you fold over. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:19 | |
And then this bit goes onto the top. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
-A bit like you do with a croissant dough. -OK. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
You need to pinch that down now and seal it in. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
Seal the butter in. That's a lovely cold dough. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
The butter's beginning to soften already, | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
so as soon as it hits that butter, | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
that nice cold dough begins to solidify. That's a good thing. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
'Once the butter is sealed in the dough, | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
'you can then roll it and fold it a second time to double the layers. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:48 | |
'Each fold is called a "turn" and the more turns your dough has, | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
'the more flaky your pastry will be.' | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
This is what we call a single turn, over the top. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
Flatten it down, then the exposed bit over the top of that. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
Seal it in again. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:06 | |
That's had a single turn, | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
so it's had the butter put in and a single turn. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
It needs at least another four of those. In between each one, | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
you chill it down and you chill it down | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
to get that butter nice and hard again. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
As a young apprentice in the kitchen, | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
the pastry chef would leave a message, "Turn the puff." | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
You'd go, "Which way?" But you'd know | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
cos he made a little mark into the pastry | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
on how many times or what side to turn it. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:32 | |
That's had one turn. One knuckle in. That'll go in the fridge. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
You wrap that up, tuck it under and then pop that in the fridge. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
Now, because it's had...one turn, I know. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:43 | |
Next time, if you forget, you've always got the turn. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
I know this one is good to go. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
'The turning process doesn't take long. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
'Most of the day, your pastry will be chilling in the fridge.' | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
In a professional kitchen, you'd probably see that - four turns. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
You'd probably have four notches sitting in it. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
I want to turn this one more time. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
You can see how yellow it's gone, from the other one. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
Because the layers have got so thin, | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
the butter's beginning to show through the dough. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
That means it's nearly ready to use. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
I'm going to roll this out. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
Nice and gently. Start from the middle again. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
Come back down. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:20 | |
A lot of people are a bit scared of making puff pastry, | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
but if you've got the time and you plan it nice, it's worth doing. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:29 | |
It is worth it. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:30 | |
What I need to do is roll this out as quickly as possible | 0:12:30 | 0:12:35 | |
before it gets too...warm. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
Now let's look at this. You see this there? | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
If you can see that area there, it looks like marble. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
In fact, it looks like marble all over the place. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
It's an indicator that the butter's got to such a level, | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
when it's nice and chilled, it splits with the butter. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
It's a good sign of a puff pastry. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
Indeed, it's a good sign for any laminated dough, | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
including a croissant and a Danish pastry. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
'A laminated dough is a baking term | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
'for the process of alternating layers of dough and butter.' | 0:13:07 | 0:13:10 | |
So now I'm happy with that. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
What I've got is my pastry ready to rock and roll. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
Get stuck in. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
'Next, take your sausage mixture | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
'and spread it out all the way along your pastry.' | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
Sausage meat all the way along. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
'Adding pickle or caramelised onions | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
'gives my sausage roll an extra flavour dimension | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
'and a little tang that works brilliantly | 0:13:32 | 0:13:34 | |
'with the herby sausage meat and buttery pastry.' | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
And then roll it up. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:39 | |
-This is a serious sausage roll. -That's a proper sausage roll. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
I want some big jumbos, so I'll trim off the end first, | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
make sure it's nice and straight. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:49 | |
'Mark out where you want to cut and slice into good-sized portions. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
'Once cut, put the rolls on a baking tray lined with baking parchment | 0:13:53 | 0:13:59 | |
'and brush them thoroughly with a rich egg wash.' | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
Give it that rich yellow colour. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
'Then put them back in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.' | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
When it comes out the fridge, you double egg wash. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
You egg wash it all again. Then with the back of the blade, | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
just run your knife from the top over to the other side. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:18 | |
And what that does is create a lovely pattern | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
on top of the sausage rolls. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
You do this on all of them, then you bake it off | 0:14:22 | 0:14:27 | |
at 200 degrees Celsius for about 15-20 minutes | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
till they're beautiful and golden brown. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
The secret with the egg wash is don't let the colour kid you. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
You think it's going dark. Stick with it. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
It'll flake up and it'll be absolutely beautiful. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
It'll be a bit tight inside because it's constricted, | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
but you'll end up with a gorgeous-tasting puff pastry. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
Let me show you this. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:48 | |
Those there are proper sausage rolls. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:56 | |
You can see the way they've split, the way they've been cut. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:00 | |
Beautiful colours. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:02 | |
Filled with the sausage meat of your own desire. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:05 | |
And there you have it - sausage rolls. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
'Make your sausage rolls any size you want, | 0:15:08 | 0:15:10 | |
'but don't expect them to last very long. They go down a treat!' | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
Now, you really can't have Paul Hollywood | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
without his beloved Mary Berry, can you? | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
It just doesn't feel right. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
And after those sausage rolls, I feel the need for something sweet - | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
something like a good old-fashioned knickerbocker glory. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
This is my basic ice cream that I make time and time again. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
Very, very simple and you don't need an ice cream machine. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
It's just those three magic ingredients - | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
eggs, cream, sugar plus vanilla. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
Meringue is the base of this ice cream. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
'To begin the meringue, start whisking the egg whites.' | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
Add the sugar gradually. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
'By using meringue as a base, | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
'we're adding the air at the beginning | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
'and then there's no more need for whisking.' | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
There we are. Not coming out. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
Very proper meringue. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
The next move is to whip the cream. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
Real cream. Never use substitute. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
This looks just about right. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
Take all the cream and put it on top of the meringue like that. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:25 | |
Fold it in, keeping as much air in as possible. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:30 | |
So, that is beautifully smooth now. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
In goes the egg yolks and, at the same time, vanilla extract - | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
about a teaspoonful. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
I know that this is going to be simply delicious. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:43 | |
And when it freezes, because it's all so frothy, | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
you don't get any of those ice crystals. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
This is ready for freezing. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
'This is now the base for any ice cream flavour. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
'Why not try stemmed ginger, fruit, raisins or even a drop of brandy? | 0:16:55 | 0:16:59 | |
'It's that easy to make your own ice cream.' | 0:16:59 | 0:17:04 | |
I've got one in there all ready. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:05 | |
A good tip is to actually chill the glasses in the fridge first | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
and I'm going to start off | 0:17:12 | 0:17:14 | |
by putting some pineapple in the bottom. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:17 | |
Then a little raspberry puree. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:20 | |
Then I'm going to put a scoop of ice cream | 0:17:22 | 0:17:24 | |
right in the middle, like that. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
This really is a very simple, back-to-basics ice cream. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:31 | |
And I think that is good enough to eat right now. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
Mmm. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:48 | |
So, how do you think I'm doing | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
with my great revival of real dairy ice cream? | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
I bet you can't wait to have a go at home. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
Thanks, Mary. But before you do rush off to try that, | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
here's Lorraine Pascale, showing us how to cook | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
what is, apparently, the favourite meal of the entire nation, | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
let alone kids. It's pizza. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
I do love to make a pizza from scratch. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:16 | |
There's something very therapeutic about making that dough. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
So I start off with 300g of strong bread flour. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:23 | |
Just pop that in... | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
to the bowl. So I need a good pinch of salt. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
And then yeast. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
Now, it's wonderful to use fresh yeast, but it does take time, | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
so I like to take a short cut and use this fast-action dried yeast. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:39 | |
So easy. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
And then some water - not too cold, not too hot, just warm. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:46 | |
That goes in there. 175ml of warm water. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
So, I start by getting the spoon in, and then here's the best bit - | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
you get your hands in and squidge it all together | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
and then just knead it for a little bit, for about five minutes. | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
So, to test whether you've kneaded it enough, | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
just take the dough like this, in a ball, | 0:19:05 | 0:19:09 | |
and just pull it back on itself, giving you a nice taut top. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
Then pop your finger in the flour, and press it, | 0:19:13 | 0:19:18 | |
and it should spring back all the way. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
I'm happy with that. So now I'm ready to roll this out. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:24 | |
Just keep pushing. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:28 | |
So, a bit of flour on there to stop it from sticking. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
And then the easiest way to transport your dough | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
is rolling pin in the centre of the dough, | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
then just fold it over... | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
..and then drag it across | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
to your baking sheet. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
'One of the reasons this recipe is so easy | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
'is that you don't even need to make your own tomato sauce. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:55 | |
'Passata, straight from the jar, | 0:19:55 | 0:19:57 | |
'is just as good when you're in a rush.' | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
I like to leave a margin around the pizza, a border, | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
just cos I think it looks nicer. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
Lovely pepperoni here. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:10 | |
Slice it up. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
'Pizza is all about what you put in it and on it. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
'Pepperoni is the nation's number one topping.' | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
No rules for pizza. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
Just do what you want. There. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
'Next I'm going to spice it up a bit | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
'with some beautiful red piquant peppers. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
'And finally a whole ball of buffalo mozzarella.' | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
And I'm just going to tear over the top. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:37 | |
That's going to go all lovely and gooey in the oven. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
There, and that's it. So simple, so easy. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
'That needs to cook for about 8-10 minutes in a really hot oven, | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
'about 240 degrees, so it cooks quickly and gets lovely and crisp.' | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
Yes! | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
'So there you have it - a beautiful pepperoni pizza | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
'in less time than it would take to have one delivered.' | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
That looks perfect. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:08 | |
I'm going to finish it off with some fresh basil. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Bit of colour and another flavour layer. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
Just rip it up, over the top. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
Look at that. Perfect. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:18 | |
Cut into this. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
There's only one way to eat a pizza, and that's with your fingers. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:27 | |
Mmm. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:30 | |
Really good. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
Now, kids and adults can go for different things | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
when it comes to food, but cooking two completely different dishes | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
can be a bit of a pain sometimes. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
So, it's always good to double up, | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
which is what James Martin does in today's final recipe, | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
using bananas in two recipes to keep everybody happy and satisfied. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:54 | |
Pretty good, huh? | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
'I've got some families coming over later on, | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
'and I'm going to serve a classic banana split for the kids | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
'and a caramel coated banana | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
'with passion fruit souffle for the adults.' | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
There's one dish that reminds me of my childhood more than any other | 0:22:14 | 0:22:17 | |
and that's bananas and custard. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
The flavour, I think we all know, is just superb. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
But this dish takes it to another level. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:25 | |
'I'm going to start off with the bananas for the splits. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
'I'm going to grill them with some fresh rosemary.' | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
You want about four sprigs and then, just with a knife, | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
insert the rosemary in the top. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
And you don't want anything too pungent, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
because it'll put the kids off, | 0:22:40 | 0:22:42 | |
but I think just a little bit of rosemary, like this, | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
makes it really special, because the flavour and the smells you get | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
while it's cooking are just great. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
'These are put onto the grill for ten minutes. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
'That'll give me time to make the grown-up version of this dessert.' | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
We make a batter, first of all, using some cornflour, | 0:22:57 | 0:23:02 | |
a little bit of sugar and some fizzy water. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
Just mix this together to form a nice little paste. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:08 | |
You just want some firm bananas for this | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
and then just trim these up, then coat them in the batter | 0:23:12 | 0:23:17 | |
and then deep-fry these. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:19 | |
You want the oil reasonably hot, not too hot. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
'They'll only take a couple of minutes to cook | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
'and, while that's happening, I can get the caramel going.' | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
Don't use granulated sugar, it must be plain caster sugar. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
Straight out of the pot - | 0:23:33 | 0:23:34 | |
no bits of tea and coffee stains in it, as well. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
Very, very clean, otherwise your sugar will recrystallise. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
You'll know when you've gone wrong, because if you're stood here | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
in about five minutes and it still looks like a big sugar lump, | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
you've got to throw it away and start again. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
'When the bananas are done, lift them out of the hot oil | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
'and drain them off.' | 0:23:51 | 0:23:53 | |
Now, the whole idea of this is to cook it without colour. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
You're not frying fish and chips. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
This is the first stage of the cooking. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
'The kids' bananas are ready to be flipped, | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
'and I can turn my attention to the caramel.' | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
You want to make sure it's nice and even caramel, with no lumps in it. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:12 | |
'When the lumps have disappeared, and it's got a nice, even colour, | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
'throw in some sesame seeds. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
'And now I can start dipping the bananas.' | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
And then with a spoon, | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
make sure it's fully coated in this caramel, so roll it around. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
Be really careful with this, because it's extremely hot, | 0:24:29 | 0:24:33 | |
and then when they come out of the caramel, into ice. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:36 | |
This will set the caramel immediately. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
It's better to do one at a time, really. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
You don't want all the bananas stuck in the pan, | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
otherwise it just ends up as one congealed, big lump - | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
a big mess in the bottom of the pan. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:50 | |
'Once they're done, I can start making the souffles | 0:24:50 | 0:24:53 | |
'by buttering some ramekins and coating the inside with sugar. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
'After that, get three egg whites, and start whisking them, | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
'which is the most crucial part of making a souffle. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
'You have to get the right amount of air into them.' | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
You can speed up the process | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
by using a pinch of salt, a little bit of sugar | 0:25:10 | 0:25:13 | |
but, really, just whisk this up so it's nice and firm. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
Once they're fully whipped up like that, | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
they should be nice and firm peaked. That way you're guaranteed | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
to get the maximum amount of air into the egg whites. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
For our filling, I'm just going to use this ready-made custard | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
and you want about two, maybe three tablespoons for two souffles. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:32 | |
I've got some lovely passion fruit. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:33 | |
Make sure you buy it with a wrinkled skin. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
There's so much more juice and flavour in there. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
The old-fashioned way would be to stand here and cut and fold | 0:25:38 | 0:25:43 | |
and figure of eight and 20 minutes later, you're still messing around. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
The whole point about a souffle, | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
and this is when you're working as a pastry chef in a restaurant, | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
you haven't got time to be doing that, | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
so you actually learn a quick method and that's just chuck it in. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:57 | |
The sooner it is in the oven, the better. | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
'Using a palette knife, I'm creating a dome | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
'over the top of the souffle. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
'Then, using my thumb, I'm making a frame around the edge, as well. | 0:26:06 | 0:26:11 | |
'This will stop it going wonky when it rises. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:13 | |
'Then throw the whole lot in the oven | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
'at 230 degrees centigrade for eight minutes. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
'The bananas on the griddle are done.' | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
I can feel, inside, they're bubbling inside, as well, | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
so they're lovely and hot. And then take a knife | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
and cut this down the middle, | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
and they almost steam in their own jackets, really. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
It's just fantastic. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
Pop a little bit of those on the plate. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
You've got another thing the kids will love, the passion fruit. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
These have got a wonderful sweet flavour, | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
which I think the kids will love. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
It doesn't matter how old you are, you've got to have some ice cream. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:51 | |
'That's the kids' dessert done, | 0:26:53 | 0:26:54 | |
'and the adult one is just about ready for serving.' | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
Just a touch of the custard on the plate. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
It's a chef's thing. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
So often, people are put off by doing souffles at home, | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
purely the fact they think it's really complicated and difficult, | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
but you're never going to know until you actually try to do it. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:14 | |
But, by using this ready-made custard, | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
I think you end up with just fantastic results every time. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:20 | |
Not bad, eh? | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
Icing sugar over the top. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
Ever so carefully, lift these on, and there you have it. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
'Sesame caramel-coated bananas | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
'with passion fruit souffle for the grown-ups | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
'and barbecued rosemary bananas with passion fruit for the kids.' | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
-There you go. -Thank you very much. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
'The proof really is in the pudding, and this is a tough crowd. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:52 | |
'Time to see what they think.' | 0:27:52 | 0:27:54 | |
-Dive in, everybody. -Ooh, this looks good. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:57 | |
Doesn't matter how old you are, you can still enjoy bananas and custard. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
Of course you can. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:03 | |
'With a little bit of thought, there are loads of simple ways | 0:28:04 | 0:28:07 | |
'to make two different dishes from the same set of ingredients, | 0:28:07 | 0:28:11 | |
'which will keep everybody happy around the dinner table.' | 0:28:11 | 0:28:14 | |
