I made these for Christmas Day lunch, I was so glad that even the children, not generally adventurous, enjoyed them! I prepared them ahead of time, up to step 5, cooked them shortly before serving, and chose to serve them in the ramekins I had cooked them in. Made in the microwave, instructions are based on a 650/700 watt microwave, mine is a little bigger, so I adjusted times accordingly, cooking for slightly less time. Lovely presentation, smooth creamy taste with a hint of mustard, very easy to prepare, I was impressed with these. From Christmas Microwave Know-how Ingredients:
450 g fresh broccoli (can use frozen) |
50 ml water |
5 tablespoons single cream |
50 g butter, melted |
4 egg yolks |
2 teaspoons coarse grain mustard |
2 egg whites, whisked until peaking |
Directions:
1. Place broccoli in a bowl with the water. Cover and microwave at 100% (High) for 8 - 10 minutes until tender. Drain well.
2. Liquidise broccoli with the cream in a blender or food processor, until smooth.
3. Turn into a bowl, and beat in butter, egg yolks, mustard and seasoning.
4. Carefully fold in egg whites.
5. Divide mixture among 8 individual greased moulds, and level surfaces.
6. Arrange in a circle in microwave, and cook at 100% (High) for 6 - 7 minutes until just firm, re-arranging once.
7. Turn out onto serving plate and keep warm, to serve with main meal.
