CHRISTMAS DESSERTS MARY BERRY RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
  2. Peel the onion and finely slice with the tomatoes and lemon. Roughly chop the dill and parsley (stalks and all).
  3. Drizzle a large baking tray with oil, scatter over a third of the sliced tomato, lemon and herbs, then top with the fish, seasoning the cavity and skin with sea salt and black pepper.
  4. Stuff the cavity with another third of the sliced tomato, lemon and herbs, then scatter the remaining third over the top – arranging a few tomatoes around the fish. Dot with butter, then drizzle all over with 2 tablespoons of oil and a twist of black pepper.
  5. Roast for 25 minutes, or until just cooked through. Delicious served with samphire.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 420 F (220 C)
• Combine the baking powder, flour, and sugar in one bowl big enough tosquish your hands around in!
• Add the butter, some people say chopped up in chunks, but I just throw itall in.
• Using your fingers, combine the butter and dry ingredients by pinching ittogether and do what they call "rubbing it in." You should end upwith a mix that looks like breadcrumbs.
• In a measuring jug, crack the eggs in.
• Add milk until you reach 10 fl oz (300 ml).
• Mix the milk and eggs together.
• Add the milk and egg mixture to the rest of the mix, slowly, and combine asyou go. Do NOT pour it all in at once. You're going to want leftover mixture tobrush on top of the scones, and if you add it all, you may end up with a doughthat is way too sticky to be worked with.
• On a floured surface, roll or press out the dough until it's about 1/2 inch(5 centimeters).
• Cut out the dough in circles using a flutted cutter or top of a cut.
• Put your cut out scones on a baking tray. They don't need to be really farapart, just a few inches.
• Brush the tops with the leftover egg and milk mixture, either using a pastrybrush or a paper towel (again, let's get real and down to earth here!)
• Bake the scones until they go golden, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• Let cool on a wire rack.
• Cut in half and decide which way you're going to put the jam and clottedcream on. Do you put the jam on first, and then the clotted cream on top, orthe other way around? Your choice!
