Return the roast, vegetables and gravy to the casserole, add the bay leaves and leave to braise in the preheated oven for approx. 4 hours. Baste with gravy from time to time and add the remaining soup (250 ml). After approx. 3.5 hours, increase the oven temperature to 160 °C and finish cooking for approx. 30 minutes.

Fruity and spicy panaeng curry

Ingredients

  • 4-5 tbsp roasted sesame oil
  • 100g garlic
  • 100g ginger
  • 100g panaeng curry paste
  • 500ml chopped tinned tomatoes
  • 500ml coconut milk
  • A few dashes of fish sauce
  • Salt and pepper
  • Optional: lime leaves, various vegetables and meat (such as chicken breast), some yoghurt
  • Rice

Preparation

Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.

Finely grate or chop the garlic and ginger. Heat the sesame oil in a pan, add the garlic-ginger paste and curry paste and fry briefly. Deglaze with the tinned tomatoes. Add the coconut milk, fish sauce and (optional) lime leaves and bring to the boil.
After a few minutes, the curry sauce can be blended. Finally, any vegetables and/or meat can be cooked in the sauce until they are cooked and tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the panaeng curry with rice, for example, and a spoonful of yoghurt if you want to reduce the spiciness.

Tip:

Fish sauce is used in Thailand to add saltiness to dishes. If you only use salt instead, the dish can also be prepared vegan. Various Thai curry pastes can be used according to the same preparation principle.

  • 200 g brown sugar
  • 350 g wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Preheat the oven to 180° (top/bottom heat). Grease the bundt cake tin well and sprinkle with flour. Beat the eggs and sugar well. Peel, core and coarsely grate the apples. Roughly chop the walnuts. Weigh the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and cardamom and mix together. Stir all the dry ingredients into the egg mixture. Fold in the apples and finally stir in the oil.

Sweet tarte flambée

© Flammkuchen - Das Franzl - Chris Gütl

Ingredients for 2 people

  • 200 g flour
  • 120 g water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Apple, banana or fruit of your choice
  • Jam, preferably homemade or with a high fruit content
  • Natural yoghurt
  • icing sugar
  • cinnamon
  • Sliced almonds

Preparation

Firstly, knead the flour, salt, oil and water into a smooth dough, cover and leave to rest for 30 minutes. Then roll out the dough thinly on a floured surface. Preheat the oven to at least 220°C, if possible a temperature of approx. 260°C would be ideal.
Cut the apple and banana into small pieces or slices and spread loosely over the tarte flambée dough.
Then bake the dough on a baking tray in the middle of the oven until the top and bottom of the dough are nicely browned. The time varies greatly depending on the oven and the thickness of the dough. It is best to keep a close eye on the tarte flambée, as it only takes a few minutes to bake.
In the meantime, sweeten the natural yoghurt with icing sugar to taste and mix well. Remove the tarte flambée from the oven, spread a thin layer of jam on top, spread the yoghurt sauce loosely with a spoon and sprinkle with a little cinnamon and sliced almonds. Cut into manageable pieces and enjoy fresh and still warm.
