TORTA DELLA NONNA (RICOTTA AND LEMON TART) - DELICIOUS. MAGAZINE
Angela Hartnett‘s elegant ricotta and lemon tart (torta della nonna) would make a fine dinner party dessert or a great finale to an Easter feast. Once you’ve made the pastry (which is the fiddly part), the rest is a breeze to make. Alternatively, try this Italian sultana and ricotta torte (which has a slightly milder flavour), or this traditional Easter sweet ricotta tart.

Steps:
- For the pastry, put the butter and icing sugar in a mixing bowl and use an electric hand mixer to beat until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Add the 3 egg yolks and beat again until combined. Add the flour and a pinch of salt and briefly whisk until just combined. Quickly bring the dough together with your hands, being careful not to over-work it. Press into a disc, wrap in cling film and chill for 45 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 170°C/150°C fan/gas 3½. Once the pastry has chilled, roll out to the thickness of a £1 coin and carefully line the tin. Trim the edges, then chill for 15 minutes. Crumple a sheet of non-stick baking paper, then use it to line the pastry case. Fill it with ceramic baking beans (or uncooked rice), then bake for 25 minutes. Remove the baking beans/rice and baking paper and bake for 5-10 minutes more, until the pastry is cooked through, golden and feels sandy to the touch.
- Once the pastry is cooked, brush it with the remaining egg yolk and bake for a further 2 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. This helps to seal the pastry and prevent it from going soggy after the filling is added. Turn the oven temperature down to 140°C/120°C fan/gas 1.
- While the pastry is cooling, make the lemon filling. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until combined, then stir in the lemon zest and juice, followed by the cream. Skim any froth from the top with a large metal spoon (discard), then transfer to a jug.
- Spoon the ricotta over the base of the cooled pastry case and spread out to an even layer using the back of the spoon or a spatula. Put the tart back on the oven shelf and carefully pour in the lemon filling.
- Bake the ricotta and lemon tart for 35-40 minutes until the filling is just set with a slight wobble in the centre. Remove the tart and cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then remove from the tart tin and cool for another 10-15 minutes on a wire rack. While the tart is still warm, sprinkle over the toasted pine nuts, dust with icing sugar, then serve in slices.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Have ready two 10-inch cardboard circles. Generously grease a 9-inch springform pan with soft butter, and dust with flour.
- Beat the egg whites until frothy, and gradually add 1 cup sugar. Beat just to soft peaks. In another bowl, beat the yolks with the milk, lemon peel, vanilla, and salt. Fold this into the egg whites. Sift the flour over the egg mixture, and fold in.
- Spread 1 1/3 cups batter into the prepared pan. Bake for about 5 to 9 minutes, or until small, brown spots begin to appear on cake. Remove the cake from the oven, and remove layer from pan with a spatula. Dust the cake lightly with flour, and place on a rack to cool. Grease pan again, and repeat this process until all of the batter is used, about 6 times more. Place the layers between wax paper, and cover with a towel. Chill layers for a few hours. Make the Chocolate Buttercream.
- Layer the chilled layers on one of the cardboard rounds with the buttercream. Start with one layer; cover with the buttercream, and then press down with another layer to make a good seal. Repeat this with the remaining layers, but reserve one layer. Wrap the cake in plastic, and chill for at least 6 hours along with the remaining buttercream. Grease the other cardboard round with the shortening, and place the last layer on it.
- Place 1 cup sugar into a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Allow sugar to cook until the edges look melted and brown. Begin stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sugar become an amber color, and is smooth. Carefully pour the caramel over the top of the last layer, and spread to the edges with an oiled knife. Quickly, using an oiled knife, indent the top of the caramel into 16 wedges. Allow to cool slightly, and then retouch the indents with the knife again. Place layer onto a counter top dusted with sugar, and allow the caramel to cool completely.
- Place some more buttercream on top of the chilled torte, and top with the caramel round. Frost the sides with the remaining buttercream. Chill the torte before serving.

NADIYA'S CHOCO-MINT ROLL RECIPE | BBC2 FAST FLAVOURS 2021
From thehappyfoodie.co.uk
Start by lining a baking tray with paper and laying about 35 mint leaves of varying sizes on it, with their undersides facing upwards. Heat the chocolate till just starting to melt and mix until it is runny. Brush the underside of the leaves with chocolate and leave to set, chocolate-side down. Once they are all done, pop in the fridge.
Now line a 23cm square cake tin and set aside.
Take the mini rolls out of the packets and add to a food processor. Blitz till the mixture begins to form a dough. Drop into the lined tin and use the back of a spoon to flatten into a neat, flat, tight layer. Leave in the fridge while you get on to the rest.
Make the ganache by putting the chocolate and cream into a pan. Pop onto a low heat and leave to melt, stirring occasionally. As soon as the chocolate has melted, mix in the mint extract and bring the mixture together to a smooth, even, glossy ganache. Put aside to leave to cool.
To make the mint cream, put the cream in a bowl. Add the sugar and mint leaves to a mortar and use your pestle to grind to a minty green wet sugar. Start whipping the cream and as soon as it begins to thicken, add the sugar and mix through. Take the cake out of the tin and layer the cream evenly on top.
Roll the cake, starting with the edge closest to you and using the paper underneath to help. As soon as you get to the end, place seam-side down and pop into the fridge to firm up for half an hour. If the roll cracks, just pinch to bring together. As bakes go, it’s forgiving, so go for it.
As soon as the roll is out of the fridge, spread a thin layer of ganache over it, then stick your minty leaves on to it to decorate.

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat, then add the onion, carrots, and celery. Stir them around until the onions start to turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken or turkey and then sprinkle the flour over the top and stir it until it's all combined with the turkey and vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, then pour in the chicken broth (and wine if using) and stir it around and let it cook and thicken. Once it starts to thicken add the turmeric, salt, pepper, and thyme. Add the half-and-half or cream, then stir the mixture and let it bubble up and thicken, about 3 minutes. If it seems overly thick, splash in a little more broth. Turn off the heat. Pour the filling into a 2-quart baking dish. Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface and lay it over the top of the dish. Press the dough so that the edges stick to the outside of the pan. Use a knife to cut little vents here and there in the surface of the dough. Mix together the egg with 2 tablespoons water and brush it all over the surface of the crust. (You will have some egg wash left over.) Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbly. To prevent the crust from getting too brown, you might want to cover it lightly with foil for the first 15 minutes of baking time. Serve up servings by the (big ol') spoonful!
