A Punjabi Eton Mess from Urbanrajah's Kitchen

Hi all............



Today I have share a recipes that touched with rosewater and cardamom, baked then crushed with delicious cream and swirled through with defrosted forest fruits.:p:p:lol:



Serves 8+



Ingredients:



Rose & Cardamom Meringues



4 egg whites

200g caster sugar

1 tsp rose water

½ tsp cardamom powder



For the Mess



400ml double cream, whisked into peaks

3tbs forest fruit or similar soft fruit, I used frozen fruit and de-frosted in a little water

1 tbs raspberry jam

1 tbs Crème de Framboise or Cassis



Preparation:







How To Make Meringues



Using a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until they start to form stiff peaks, i.e. as you remove the whisk you’ll see the mix rise. Now gradually add in the sugar and keep whisking until the ingredients combine to form a slick gorgeously glossy look. You’ll know that the mixture is ready if you tip the bowl upside down and the ingredients don’t fall out! Sprinkle in the cardamom powder and swirl with the rose water.



Pre-heat your oven to approx. 140C/Gas Mark 1. Line a baking tray with grease proof paper and using a tablespoon scoop a full blob of the meringue mix onto the tray with confidence. Keep repeating until the bowl is empty. Bake for 40 minutes, they should take on a lightly tanned appearance. Now turn the oven off and LEAVE the meringues in the oven for at least 4 hours or overnight if possible.





How To Make A Mess



Grab a large bowl and gently crush two thirds of the meringues (keep the others as little treats to enjoy with a cup of tea), decant the whipped cream, pop in the jam and forest fruits and tenderly swish the ingredients around until you have a gorgeous riot of colour. Drizzle the booze (Crème de Framboise) over the top.



Serve the Punjabi Mess immediately in pudding bowls or glasses.
