    On oured surface, roll puff pastry into 14 x 10-

    inch rectangle. Cut pastry into two 7 x 10-inch

    pieces. Using a ruler to guide pastry wheel, cut

    each half into 22 seven-inch long strips about

    1/4-inch wide.

    To make lattice heart, lay 11 pastry strips, 1/8-

    inch apart and parallel, across an ungreased

    baking sheet. One by one, weave 11 more strips

    through parallel strips to create lattice square.

    Cut out center of lattice with a 4 or 5-inch

    heart-shaped cookie cutter or stencil and discard

    trimmings. Refrigerate heart 10 minutes.

    Heat oven to 400 deg. F. Brush hearts with egg

    mixture and bake 15 minutes or until golden

    brown. In skillet, melt butter and add apple

    slices, sugar and cinnamon. Cover and cook,

    stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until

    tender. Stir in one tablespoon of jam.

    To serve, blend yogurt and water. Divide mixture

    between two large serving plates. Mound apple

    slices in center. Dip edges of each heart into

    confectioners sugar and place atop apples.

    To make heart-shaped designs in the sauce, heat

    remaining jam in microwave for thirty seconds.

    Drop dots of jam onto sauce. Drag a toothpick

    tip through center of each dot to make heart.

    Yield: 2 servings

    1 sheet (9 1/2 x 10-inch) puff pastry (sold in

    grocery freezer sections or make your own

    puff pastry)

    2 ripe avocados, quartered

    1/4 cup chopped green onion

    2 tablespoons fresh orange or pineapple

    juice

    1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

    1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt

    1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

    1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

    AVOCADO

    Heat the chicken broth until hot, not boiling. Set

    aside.

    Peel the avocado and remove the seed. Cut into

    several pieces, place in the food processor or

    blender, and pure. Turn off the blender and

    pour in the whipping cream, followed by the hot

    chicken broth, cumin, salt, white pepper, sherry

    and lemon juice. Pulse a few times, just until

    mixture is blended. Taste and add more salt and

    pepper, if desired.

    Serve immediately, or chill for at least two hours

    and serve.

    Note: Haas avocados are the ones with the

    bumpy skin. As they ripen, they go from dark

    green to purplish-black. This is only my opinion,

    but if I cannot nd Haas avocados, I dont make

    this or any other avocado recipe until I can nd

    them.

    BLACKBERRY

    1. Soak the gelatin in the cold water in a

    saucepan for 5 minutes. Add the orange juice,

    grated orange zest, and berries, and bring just to

    pale yellow. Add the Cointreau and beat for

    another minute.

    3. Put the egg yolk mixture in the top of a

    double boiler over simmering water. Stir until

    slightly thickened and hot to the touch. Cool to

    room temperature.

    4. Add the egg yolk mixture to the blackberry

    mixture and stir until well blended. Whip the

    heavy cream to soft peaks and fold gently into

    the blackberry and egg yolk mixture. Divide

    among serving dishes and chill until ready to

    1/2 cup butter

    2 cups unsifted our

    1 cup sugar

    2 large eggs

    1/2 cup milk

    2 teaspoons baking powder

    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    2 tablespoons sugar (for top of mufns)

    BLUEBERRY

    Preheat oven to 375F. In a large mixing bowl,

    cream together butter and sugar until light and

    uffy; add eggs, one at a time, beating after each

    addition. In a second bowl, combine all dry

    ingredients. (You can use an electric mixer to

    combine the dry ingredients thoroughly at this

    point so that you wont need to overmix once the

    wet and dry ingredients are combined.

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the

    creamed butter and sugar mixture along with the

    milk and vanilla. Optionally, mash 1/2 cup of

    the blueberries, and stir in by hand (this will turn

    batter a light shade of blue and add a touch of

    blueberry avor, but this step may be skipped, if

    you wish). Add the remaining whole berries and

    stir in gently by hand.

    Spray a 12 mufn baking pan with Bakers Joy

    (or other non-stick spray). Fill greased mufn

    cups 3/4 full. Sprinkle sugar on top of unbaked

    mufns (we like to use Turbinado sugar for

    sprinkling the tops). Bake at 375F for 25-30

    minutes. Cool in pan. Run a knife around the

    edge of each mufn after several minutes to

    free it from the pan and cool on wire racks.

    Mufns may be brushed with melted butter and

    sprinkled with sugar, if desired.

    At our test kitchen, we sometimes sprinkle

    blueberry mufn tops with cinnamon s ugar

    or ground hazelnuts or spread with lemon or

    vanilla icing and top with thinly sliced almonds.

    BROCCOLI

    Melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium sized stock

    pot, and saute onion and celery until tender. Add

    broccoli and broth, cover and simmer for 10

    minutes.

    Pour the soup into a blender, lling the pitcher

    no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid

    of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and

    carefully start the blender, using a few quick

    pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it

    on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and

    pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use

    a stick blender and puree the soup right in the

    cooking pot.

    In small saucepan, over medium-heat melt 3

    tablespoons butter, stir in our and add milk. Stir

    until thick and bubbly, and add to soup. Season

    with pepper and serve.

    1 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk,

    stirred

    3/4 cup milk

    3 Tablespoons sugar

    2 Tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca

    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    pounds)

    Fresh mint sprigs, for garnish

    PAPAYA

    Combine the coconut milk, milk, sugar, and

    tapioca in a medium-size saucepan, and bring

    to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to

    low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the

    tapioca is translucent and the mixture is slightly

    thickened, about 5 minutes. Do not overcook;

    the mixture will continue to set as it cools. Stir in

    the vanilla extract.

    Let the tapioca cool. Cover and refrigerate until

    it is well chilled, at least 1 hour.

    Halve the papayas and remove the seeds. With

    a spoon, scoop out the esh and place it in a

    blender or food processor. Process the papayato a puree. (There should be about 2 cups of

    puree.) Cover and refrigerate until well chilled, at

    least 1 hour.

    To serve, spoon the tapioca pudding into 1 side

    of each soup bowl, then add the papaya puree

    on the other side, forming a yin-yang pattern.

    Garnish with a mint sprig and serve at once.

    Yield: 4 servings

    by Maneka Nirmal

    PINEAPPLE

    Method:

    Boil the pineapple pieces in a thick bottom pan,

    along with a little water. When the pineapple is

    done, add the ghee and fry it well.

    Add sugar and fry. Make sure that there is no

    crumbs or lumps. When it is nicely done, add

    the third extract of the milk and boil it. Add

    the second extract followed by the rst extract.

    When the rst extract begins to boil, add the

    washed chowari. When the chowari is cooked

    and payasam is nicely done, remove from ame.

    Add the fried cashewnuts and raisins. Sprinkle

    the powdered ingredients and mix well. Closethe pan with a lid to keep the yummy avor

    Tips:

    1) If u r using tinned coconut milk, avoid the

    three steps of extract milk.

    simply mix one cup water to the rst tin of

    coconut milk and dilute it. Add this to the fried

    pineapples. When it starts to boil, add the second

    tin of coconut milk.

    2) I normally add one cup water to one tin

    coconut milk to dilute it. But u can use more or

    less according to the thickness and quality of the

    milk.

    PLUM

    Preheat your oven to 400F, making sure your

    rack is in the middle. Butter a 2-qt glass baking/

    lasagna dish.

    Cut each of the plums into eighths and toss

    them with the brandy and sugar in a medium

    bowl, letting them sit for about 15 minutes

    minutes at room temperature.

    Using a slotted spoon, toss the plums into the

    baking dish, spreading them out evenly. Do not

    rinse the bowl just yet!

    Pour the leftover juices into a blender, adding

    in the eggs, milk, melted and cooled butter, salt,

    our, vanilla and almond extract, as well as thesugar.

    Blend briey (just until all of the ingredients are

    combined) and then pour over plums.

    Bake for about 35 minutes, until the custard is

    a light golden brown, puffed, and set (check by

    inserting a toothpick into the center and make

    sure it comes out relatively clean).

    Let the dish set for about 15 minutes--it will

    shrink down and the custard will become denser.

    Dust with powdered sugar and serve by cutting

    into brownie-sized squares.

    POMELO

    Put the salt in a small saucepan and ll 2/3 with

    water. Bring to a boil and then add the shrimp.

    As soon as theyve curled up, remove them with

    a slotted spoon and set aside to cool. Return

    the water to a boil and add the chicken or pork

    chop. When bubbles form at the rim, turn off

    the heat, cover and let sit for 20 minutes to cook

    the esh. Remove and set aside to cool. (If youre

    using the Vietnamese sausage, skip this step be

    cause its already cooked.) Cut the shrimp in the

    diagonal into large pieces that will blend well

    with the pomelo and other ingredients. Hand

    shred the chicken or cut the pork into julienne.Set aside. Cut off one end of the pomelo to

    reveal its eshy pith. Then use your ngers

    and knife to remove the pith so that all thats

    remaining is the white covered esh. Pry the

    pomelo open and split into two parts. Then use

    a knife, scissors and your ngers to peel away

    the skin from each segment and remove the

    esh. Separate the esh into bite size pieces and

    deposit in a bowl. For the dressing, combine

    sh sauce, lime juice, water, sugar and chile

    garlic sauce in a small bowl and stir to dissolve

    the sugar. Right before serving, add the shrimp,

    RED BELL PEPPER

    Remove the core, seeds and membranes from

    the peppers and roughly chop them. Heat a

    heavy-bottomed saut pan over medium heat

    for a minute, then add the olive oil and heat for

    another minute.

    Add the shallots and saut for a minute or two

    or until theyre slightly translucent. Reduce heat

    to low, add the chopped pepper. Cover and

    sweat for about 15 minutes or until tender. Add

    a couple of tablespoons of stock and cook for

    another minute or two. Remove from heat and

    pure in a blender.

    Tip: Use care when processing hot items in a

    blender as the hot steam can sometimes blow the

    blender lid off.

    Start on a slow speed with the lid slightly ajar to

    vent any steam, then seal the lid and increase the

    blending speed. Add vinegar, adjust consistency

    with remaining stock, and season to taste with

    Kosher salt and white pepper.

    Ingredients12 ounces strawberries, hulled and cut into

    1/4-inch slices

    Good-quality balsamic vinegar

    1/2 lemon, juiced

    Extra-virgin olive oil

    Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Olive oil

    A few sprigs fresh basil, leaves picked

    9 ounces halloumi cheese, cut into 8 thin

    slices

    A few sprigs fresh mint, leaves picked

    A handful mixed salad leaves, washed and

    spun dry

    8 slices speck

    STRAW-BERRY

    SALAD

    by Ellen Wilson

    XXVI

    STRAWBERRY

    Directions

    Most people think of strawberries as something

    theyd only eat for dessert, but they work so well

    in salads. Especially when paired with halloumi

    cheese, which I just love. Its a Cypriot cheese

    made from goats or sheeps milk and you can

    get it from all good supermarkets. Its like a

    chewy feta but one you can cook with. When

    fried or broiled it goes all crispy on the outside

    and soft and slightly chewy on the inside. A

    brilliant thing to eat.

    In a bowl, drizzle the sliced strawberries with a

    good splash of balsamic vinegar, the lemon juice

    and some extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt

    and pepper. This will draw out and avor the

    lovely strawberry juices.Preheat a large nonstick frying pan to medium

    hot and add a splash of olive oil. Press a basil

    leaf onto each slice of halloumi. Place the slices,

    leaf side down, in the frying pan and fry for a

    minute. Turn over carefully and fry for another

    minute until the halloumi is light golden and

    crisp.

    Get yourself 4 plates and place a couple of

    pieces of the crispy halloumi on each. Put the

    mint, the rest of the basil leaves and the salad

    leaves into the bowl with the strawberries and

    toss together. Pile some of the strawberry

    mixture in the middle of each plate and drape

    the speck over the top. Finish with more salad

    leaves. To serve, drizzle with balsamic vinegar
