Chocolate chip cookie Trifle

Chocolate chip cookie Trifle
Trifle - the very word brings to mind those quintessential British summers. Strawberries on the lawn, the gentle drone of a cricket game in the background, the gentle buzzing of bees and their fumbles with the honeysuckle. Like many things, trifle has changed from its traditional origins. It's moved to the big city and got itself a new haircut and fancy shoes. Our version is chocolatey, cakey and covered with cookies and lots of choccy sauce. Traditional, this guy ain't - delicious, he certainly is.

Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
Chocolate Sauce
  • 6 tbsp sugar
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 500 ml double cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp instant coffee
  • 75g dark chocolate, finely chopped
Whipped Cream
  • 500ml double cream
  • 3 tbsp icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla essence
Trifle
  • 1 shop bought chocolate cake, cut into three sections
  • 2 packs cookies, roughly chopped
Instructions
  1. In a pan whisk together sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, salt, instant coffee. Place on the heat and add double cream - whisk thoroughly to make a smooth, thick sauce. Add more cream to get your desired consistency.
  2. Whisk the cream, icing sugar and vanilla together until you have stiff peaks - be very careful as it's incredibly easy to over whip at this stage. If you do by mistake you can fold in some double cream to bring it back from the edge.
  3. Using a sharp knife chop up the cookies.
  4. To assemble the trifle place the first slice of chocolate cake on the bottom of the trifle bowl. Top with whipped cream, a good handful of chopped cookies, and lashing of the chocolate sauce. Repeat three times, finishing with the chocolate sauce.
  5. Yum yum!

Kung Pao Popcorn Fried Chicken

Kung Pao Popcorn Fried Chicken
Kung Pao roughly translates as "palace guardian", so named after an official governor of the Sichuan province during the late Qing dynasty. As with many dishes this has travelled the world, leaving the names meaning on the wayside, relentlessly morphing on its voyage to suit the palates of the countries it's passing through, just about hanging onto the peanut and Shaoxing rice wine vestments of its Imperial Chinese youth. Our version fries the chicken in batter to make in extra delicious.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Breakfast
Ingredients
Marinade
  • 5 eggs, white only
  • 100ml soy sauce
  • 100ml rice vinegar
  • 5 chicken breasts, cut into roughly 2cm chunks
  • 200g cornflour
  • 200g plain flour
  • 50g sugar
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 litres groundnut oil
Sauce
  • 2 tbsp groundnut oil
  • 5m ginger, finely diced
  • 5 cloves garlic, finely diced
  • 2 tbsp mild chilli flakes
  • 3 tbsp Shaoxing rice wine
  • 50ml light soy sauce
  • 50ml dark soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp ground pepper (Sichuan if you can get some!)
  • 1 tbsp corn flour
  • 2 tbsp water
Instructions
  1. Whisk the egg whites, soy and vinegar together and add the chicken - the mixture is a little gross at this stage but persevere - the egg whites are perfect for making the flour stick to the chicken later on in the recipe.
  2. Cover with clingfilm and leave in the fridge for at least an hour or two.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk together corn flour and plain flour and add salt and pepper.
  4. Heat the oil to 175°C/360°F. In batches toss the drained chicken pieces in the flour - if there are a few drips and craggy bits fear not, as these will make the chicken really crunchy at the end.
  5. Cook for around ¾ minutes, until golden and crisp, then place to cool on a rack above some kitchen towel.
  6. Meanwhile, fry the ginger and garlic in hot oil in the wok until fragrant. Add the two soy sauces and the rice wine and stir to mix together. Add the sugar, salt and pepper. In a small bowl mix the cornflour with water to make a slurry, then add this to the sauce. Bring to a simmer and thicken before adding the chicken and stirring to glaze.
  7. Serve hot with rice, thinly sliced spring onions and crushed dry roasted peanuts.
