Another Bake Off legend has snuck into the Served kitchen 👀 This time it’s @nellyghaffar’s turn to whip @justinkaarthur into shape... a jam roly poly shape, to be exact. Serves 4 Total time: 1.5 hours Ingredients 160g self-raising flour 40g icing sugar 50g suet 1 large egg 2–3tbsp whole milk 100g flaked almonds 50g melted butter 200g strawberries 150g granulated sugar 1 red chilli, chopped 1 tbsp vegetable oil 1/2 lemon, juice & zest Pinch of sea salt Method 1.

Add the sugar, lemon juice, zest and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat until thick and sticky, stirring occasionally. Leave to cool and reserve 20% for serving 3. To make the roll, preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a baking tray lined with two pieces of baking paper: one cut to fit the tray and another slightly larger for wrapping the roll 4. Fill a separate deep baking dish or tray with boiling water and place it on the bottom of the oven to create steam 5. In a large bowl, sift the flour and icing sugar, then mix in the suet 6. In a small bowl, beat the egg with 2tbsp of milk and pour into the flour mixture. Mix together until a dough forms 7. LDust your work surface with flour and knead until smooth 8.

Place the roll in the centre of the larger sheet of baking paper. Fold the edges of the paper over the roll and seal tightly. Fold the ends under the roll to secure. Leave enough room for it to expand during baking 11. Bake for 50 minutes, unwrap & let the steam escape. Blitz the reserved jam to create a sauce. Serve with custard and a drizzle of your jam sauce

Sticky toffee pud... wait, no - it’s malva pudding. South Africa’s answer to the classic, and @justinkaarthur’s topping it with both custard AND ice cream because one topping just wasn’t going to cut it. Serves 12-14 (slices) Total time: 70 mins Ingredients For the sponge: 100g granulated sugar 70g brown sugar 2 large eggs 15g smooth apricot jam (about 1 tbsp) 150g plain flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt 15g butter (melted, about 1 tbsp) 1 tbsp white vinegar 120ml whole milk For the Sauce 200ml fresh cream 100g butter 100g sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract Method 1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) 2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Add the apricot jam, milk butter and vinegar to the egg mixture and whisk until well combined 3. In a separate bowl, sift together the 150g plain flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt 4.Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing gently to combine 5. Grease a baking dish with butter and pour the batter into the prepared dish 6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean 7. While the pudding is baking, combine the fresh cream, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract in a saucepan 8. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes 9. Once the pudding is baked, remove it from the oven and immediately poke holes all over the surface using a skewer or fork 10. Slowly pour the warm sauce over the hot pudding, allowing it to soak in thoroughly. Let the pudding rest for at least 15 minutes to absorb the sauce completely 11.

Yes, this indeed is the 1,241th Mongolian beef recipe on the internet but it’s the first @justinkaarthur one, so you know it’s gonna bang. Serves 2  Total time: 30 mins Ingredients 250g of flank steak (or any steak)  2 tbsp light soy sauce  1 tbsp xiao xing wine  1/2 tsp bicarb soda  1 spoon of cornstarch  1 tsp of white pepper  1 tbsp of sunflower oil  1 onion, sliced 4 spring onions, sliced 3 garlic cloves , sliced 5 dried chillies 3 tbsp brown sugar  1/2 cup light soy  1/4 cup dark soy  1/2 cup chicken stock  1 tbsp of sesame oil  Corn starch slurry (if needed) To serve 250g rice 1 spring onion Method  1. Thinly slice the beef against the grain, then add it to a bowl with light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, a pinch of bicarb soda, some cornstarch, white pepper, and a splash of oil. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes 2. While the beef marinates, slice the onion, chop the spring onions, mince the garlic, and break up a few dried chillies 3. In another bowl, mix brown sugar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chicken stock, and a drizzle of sesame oil to make the sauce 4. Just before cooking, coat the beef in 3-4 tbsp of cornflour so they get extra crispy when frying. Heat oil in a wok or pan over high heat. Fry the beef slices briefly on each side until just crisp. Remove and set aside 5. Pour out most of the oil, leaving just enough to coat the pan, then add the onion, garlic, and dried chillies. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes until fragrant 6. Return the beef to the pan and pour in the sauce. Stir to coat everything and let it simmer. If the sauce needs thickening, add a small amount of cornstarch slurry and stir until it reaches your desired consistency 7. Serve hot rice and garnish with extra spring onions #easyrecipe #beefstirfry #chinesefood #recipes
