Fruit recipes

My husband tried this with great success. He used jam sugar though your recipe doesn't specify this. The plums were Victoria plums and the jam is delicious.

I will be trying this recipe soon I just wondered if I need to Refrigerate the jars after they are sealed with the jam?

Answer : no, just let them cool.

This is great, thanks, but why do you add the kernels in this way? And why not all the kernels?

I cooked plums without sugar as my son spilt the sugar oops! I have refrigerated them overnight can i now boil them again with sugar to make the jam ?

I made this for my sisters birthday and it was a big hit! To decorate I added strawberries around the edges of the cake and one on top (a good idea as the strawberries used don't add a large amount of flavour to the cheesecake). Everyone seemed to really love it though and the instructions were quite simple and easy to follow!

I think that the recipe is too simple. Theere should also be a certain amount of milk wrote in the ingredients!

You said need e v olive oil, but dont use it in the recipe anywhere?

Method 4 add the oil, Doh

I fist had this with a friend and now it comes out every special time and always gets a thumbs up.

Amazing top nocth it is superb my friends all envy the recipe

I felt like making custard for my family. I had only ever made packet custard and they had never liked it. I decided to look for a recipe online. Your recipe was a hit. We had it over our apple crumble. I have added this one to my favourites.

I have been making custard in different ways but when I tried your recipe,it was bursting with flavour and everyone around ask for more.

Fantastic and easy to read .

Hi there,
I m just commenting to say that I am going to try to make this recipe at school for my Food Tech project.
This recipe sounds delicious and hopefully it will go down well with all the tasters!
Thanks for the creator of this recipe! Bye!

I think that you should post some recipes that teenagers can try simply at home, where they dont need apparatus but a good pair of hands.

I would definitely try it. I don't know what apparatus the previous poster is talking about, seeing as all that's needed is an oven - I'd be more worried about the teenagers using alcohol.

Thanks for this simple to follow recipe which reminded me of making blackcurrant jelly with my Gran about 30 years ago. One suggestion: you could explain how to test for setting point (dribble onto a cold plate) and suggest how long it should take to reach that point (it took me about half an hour). Also, what is a good implement for skimming?Anyway, the resultant jelly is fantastic. Thanks!

I really enjoyed making this recipe, which reminded me of what my Gran taught me 30 years ago. One suggestion is to explain how to test for setting point (dribble onto a cold plate) and how long it takes to reach this point (it took me about half an hour). Great tasting jelly anyway, thank you!

Looked at a lot of bramble and apple jelly recipes on the net - but this was the best. Makes about 5lb

How long does it take for setting piont, I seem to be boiling for hours

You can cook this for the whole family and they all love it, its great!

Why do the french think they evented crumble and their crumble is better

I think that it was very good and told you the basic info, but it would have given a nice little ending touch if the user had said something like:
7. "Serve and enjoy!"
I think it would have given it a more friendly tough, and made it a lot more finished

I think this recipe should have a picture so we know what we should compare it with.

How the hell do you rub strawberries in a nylon sieve? hmmm...
x

You take the nylon sieve and briskly rub the the strawberries into it to make a moist mixture.

Mango sauce was very good

Lovely dessert, easy to make, little too much lemon rind for me, defo make it again

I think this is really good i like it :)

I doubled the all the ingredients to get a stronger flavour but kept the same amount of pork,coconut milk and juice and rind of lime. Absolutely delicious!! tasted even better the next day.

It looks very tasty.

This recipe is fantastic and went down extremely well on our picnic, but it was to serve 6 but could easily serve 8. If you want it for 4 people half the recipe and that will be about right. Do try this recipe it truely is 'SENSATIONAL'.

AFTER FINDING WHERE I CAN PURCHASE ACETIC ACID I'M THEN ASKED WHAT STRENGHT OF WHICH I HADN'T A CLUE WITHOUT THIS THE RECIPE IS OF NO USE TO ME

I think that this recipe reads melon instead of lemon!

Want to know about the usefullness of khir kamla

Having read this recipe I was expecting some kind of pastry as it is called a "Pie" Seems more like a pudding or is it a baseless(no pastry) pie?

The result was pretty delicious but the amounts given for the rice and maize flour did not work at all! I had to use nearly double the amount (i.e. full cups instead half cups) for the pastry to work.

I really enjoyed making this (as i'm not a very good cook)i found this very simple to do.
now i'm just loooking for a excuse to serve it!

Fantastic - at first I thought the flavours were just too overwhelming, but after leaving the jar for a couple of weeks the flavours taste great. I used spiced vinegar which is available from the supermarket in New Zealand.

Easy to follow instructions---a boon for first.timers like me!

This is very simple and needs hardly any ingredients. it is very delicious.

This reciped doesn't tell you how many it serves

This recipe is good i love it

Well easy a healthy drink which will take all of two minutes to make.

I had this brulee and it tasted fantastic this is my new speciallity

A great recipe, perfect

Nicest pudding ever!!!

This is a fabulous soup to replace sorbet at a dinner party for those amongst us who can't have sugar

Do you need to store in a frigde ??

Yes

I found this recipe and it sounded nice so i tried it and it was delicious

This dish was delicious when I made it for my colleagues--thank you for who ever posted it!

Is it ok to use normal caster sugar, i have guests and cant afford to go out at the moment.
thanks

Answer: Yes

Very easy to prepare for a picnic with friends. It was very favourably received.

OH MY GOD this was a fantastic recipe. My boyfriend whent mad for it. thanks a million

Hello! great idea of color of this siyte!

Do you think you could make an ice cream that taste like the red candy apple you would find at an ammusement park ect. Thank you Maureen

Wow i left this on the top saying that i love it and havent eaten it in ages written on top the sheet, and i come home my husbands made me tea and then gives me this. :D how cool is that. it was lovley.

I would probably use a little less lime if i did this again

It is a great recipe,very quick and easy to do and yet the result is full of flavours. Try it!

Hello, I need this Recipe for my SPB exam, which I am doing in ICT. I wondered if I can use this recipe for my Eat me, drink me cards?

Ans. Yes no problem Grace.

This is a nice healthy option and you can choose what you want.

I thought it tasted really nice

This was the best recipe ever, i ate it all in one night the only bad thing is the word FLAN because it dosent sound too nice but once you have eaten it u will love it i make it 2 times a week now!

It is a very healthy option and a good way to get kids eating more healthier foods

Superb

Really good. but try adding blackberrys and elderberrys too, makes the texture divineee!!!

It is very good but not rite for me

I love it

Very good recipe and good ideas

With extremely juicy blackberries you end up with soggy pastry. No guidance here to counteract this

It doesn't explain what you do to the plums,

ANSWER. The plums are halved and stoned and placed cut side down on the biscuit base.

The crumble was very dry and 2 sweet

I think this recipe is a very detailed dish which can be used in a variety of themed events !!

I saw this and made it and i made it over and over again.I think it's pure genius, try it.

I think that this is a great way of using melon. I think that the recipe would go far. It realy depends who the aduiance is and who they are serving for. If you are serving for an audiance of 18+ then yes. However the recipe is not as easy to understand as it contains items of which I have never seen in my life.

Great recipe but I didn't know if you were suggesting that the biscuits were crushed up and used under the fool when served or just placed into the dish whole to decorate?
