Lemon Pudding With Raspberry Coulis And Berries Recipes

LEMON PUDDING WITH RASPBERRY COULIS AND BERRIES

Steps:

• 1. Make coulis - simmer raspberries in 1/2 -3/4 cup water until very soft and have lost their color. Crush with spoon as they cook. Strain and discard seeds and remaining mass. Put strained raspberry liquid back into pot with sugar. Bring to boil, lower heat and simmer until liquid reduces and thickens. Cool.
• 2. Make lemon pudding according to package directions. Pour into 4 individual serving containers.
• 3. To serve - pour 1/4 of the chilled coulis on the pudding in each bowl. Sprinkle some blueberries on the coulis and top with a generous squirt of whipped cream.

LEMON PUDDING CAKE WITH A RASPBERRY COULIS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter and lightly sugar 4 ramekins (about 1-cup size).
• 2. In a mixer, add egg yolks, buttermilk, lemon juice and lemon zest and beat until well combined. Reduce the speed to low and sift in flour, sugar and salt. Continue to mix until combined.
• 3. Beat egg whites until you get stiff peaks then combine the 2 mixtures by gently folding them together, a little at a time.
• 4. Divide evenly amongst ramekins then bake in a water bath - set ramekins in a roasting tray and fill with water halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
• 5. Bake for 60 minutes until the top springs back when gently pressed and the cakes have a nice golden brown color. Allow to cool slightly.
• 6. For Coulis: Blend the raspberries, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla in a blender or food processor. There will be some chunks of fruit left in the mixture.
• 7. Pour the mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing on the fruit to release all of the juices. Strain out all the seeds and fruit bits
• 8. To serve, spoon some of the raspberry sauce in the center of each plate then carefully invert each cake onto a plate. Place 2 raspberries in the center of each cake for garnish.

STEAMED LEMON RASPBERRY SPONGE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Butter and sugar ramekins and place 5 or 6 berries in each one. With a whisk attachment, whip the yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla, melted butter, lemon zest, and buttermilk.
• Stir the dry ingredients together and slowly mix them into the yolks.
• In a separate bowl, whip the whites until stiff then fold them into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared molds filling almost to the top. Place them in a water bath and cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let set 5 minutes before turning the cakes out of their molds.
• To serve, mash the remaining raspberries with the 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar to make a rough pureed mash. Stir 2 tablespoons sugar into the yogurt. Place the cake on a plate and ring it with the sweetened yogurt and drizzle some raspberry mash through the yogurt.

LUSCIOUS LEMON PUDDING WITH SUMMER BERRIES

Steps:

• Butter an ovenproof dish and heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Carefully weigh out the butter and sugar into a bowl.
• Finely grate the zest from the lemons. For best results, grate, then turn the lemon a little and grate again, so you just take off the yellow skin rather than the pith below. Halve and squeeze the juice from the lemons - you need 100ml, so make up with a splash of water or more juice.
• Separate the eggs (put the whites in a large, clean bowl), being careful not to get any yolk in with them. Whizz the butter, sugar and zest in a food processor until creamy. Add the juice, whizz again; then, with the motor still running, tip in the yolks, flour and milk to form a smooth batter.
• Whisk the egg whites, preferably with an electric hand whisk, until firm but not stiff. Pour in the lemon batter, then gently fold the 2 mixtures together with a large metal spoon, being light-handed so that you don't knock out all the air from the whites. Don't worry if it looks a bit lumpy.
• Pour the mixture into the buttered dish, then put it in a roasting tin. Pour in a kettle of hot water into the tin so it is half-filled (this is called a bain marie). Ask an adult to help you with this bit. Bake for 35 mins until the top is set and there is a saucy lemon curd below. Use oven gloves to remove it from the oven.
• While the pudding is baking, pull or cut the hulls (the green tops) from the strawberries. Halve or slice them if large. Put in a bowl with the blueberries, then spoon over the cordial or sugar and mix together. Remove the pudding from the tin, dust with icing sugar through a sieve and serve warm or cold, with the berries.
