Ingredients:
(Serves 4)
Pasta Dough
2 tsp saffron threads*
4 tbsp boiling water
4 medium eggs
4 tbsp olive oil
15 1/2 (3 1/2 cups) "00" pasta flour, plus extra for rolling *
1 tsp ground turmeric
Spiced Butter
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
4 tbsp olive oil
8 shallots, finely chopped*
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp sweet paprika*
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp chile flakes
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp salt
black pepper to taste
*Notes*
In the recipe book we weren't sure if we were supposed to keep the saffron threads in the water mixture or not.. So we kept it in. Adds a really pretty contrast of color.
We didn't have pasta flour so we used regular all purpose flour.
We also did not have shallots, we used yellow onions.
Substituted sweet paprika for regular paprika.
Ingredients
Basil
Olive oil
Garlic
Pine Nuts*
Parmesan
Lemon juice/zest
*Notes*
We used walnuts.
Once you've rolled it out, roll the dough onto its self so the center is a spiral, then cut into about 1/4 inch pieces. Find the end and unravel it.
Time to plate!
Ingredients
Frozen puff pastry
3 tbsp triple berry jam*
2 tbsp water
2 honey crisp apple*
Cinnamon
Powdered sugar
*Notes*
You can use any jam you want. This was the jam we had available.
Same with the apple. Any apple will do.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Take your puff pastry out to thaw. You'll only need half the package.
Slice your apples in half from top to bottom.
Take out anything inedible.
Skin side up slice your apple from top to bottom and place slices in a bowl with water and lemon juice. *The lemon juice is to make sure your apple doesn't brown*
Microwave your apple slices for 3 mins or until flexible.
Roll your pastry out till it thin and cut into strips about 1 1/2 inches.
In a bowl microwave jam and water so it's easy to spread out. About 30 seconds.
Spread some jam onto your pastry slices then line up apple slices so half of the apple is sticking out (with the skin facing up).
Sprinkle some cinnamon on top.
Fold up the bottom half of the pastry on top of the apple slice and roll. The top of it should look like a rose.
Put in a muffin pan or ramekins.
Cook for 30 mins.
If the dough doesn't seem to be cooked yet, leave it in for another 10-15 mins.
Garnish with powdered sugar.
Really simple and super tasty!
