6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, organic if possible
3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 large egg yolks
Pinch salt

Steps:

Pour the filling into the cooled crust, return to the oven, and bake until set and beginning to brown on the top, about 30 minutes. Remove tart from the oven, cool to room temperature and then chill in the refrigerator, at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.
  • To serve, carefully remove outer tart shell ring and slice. Eat and enjoy!
  • NOTE: Any crushed gingersnap cookie will do; just be sure to use 2 1/2 cups crumbs for the crust.

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 x 400ml cans full-fat coconut milk
60g golden caster sugar
200ml double cream
4 leaves of gelatine
10 ginger nut biscuits
400g can mango slices, or sliced fresh mango
1 lime, zested

Steps:

  • Pour the coconut milk into a saucepan and warm over a medium-high heat for about 20 mins, stirring frequently so it doesn't catch, until reduced by about a quarter (you need around 600ml remaining). Stir in the caster sugar to dissolve, then pour in the double cream. Meanwhile, soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water for 10 mins. Squeeze out any excess liquid, then add to the coconut milk mixture, stirring until the gelatine has dissolved completely.
  • Divide the mixture between six-eight ramekins (about 140ml each) and set aside until the mixture has cooled. Chill for at least 3 hrs until set, or overnight.
  • Put the ginger nuts in a sandwich bag and use the end of a rolling pin to crush them to a rough powder. Divide the mixture between six to eight small plates, spreading thinly.
  • Prepare a bowl of warm water and dip the ramekins in to loosen the edges. Carefully turn them upside down in the middle of each plate and tap gently until freed.
  • Add a couple of mango slices beside each panna cotta, and sprinkle over the lime zest. Serve straightaway.

Festive enough for a holiday party or a summer cookout, this bright and creamy mango tart has a crisp gingersnap crust and is topped with candied ginger, pistachios and toasted coconut. The no-bake crust, which is made from store bought gingersnaps, butter and light brown sugar, comes together in the food processor with the press of a button. For the filling, fresh or frozen mango is cooked with ginger and turmeric to deepen its flavor and brighten the color of the finished dessert.

Time 35m

Yield One 9-inch cake (8 to 10 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 ounces/340 grams gingersnap cookies, about 48 (2-inch) cookies
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1/4 cup/55 grams light brown sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
16 ounces/455 grams cubed fresh mango (or thawed, frozen mango)
1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons powdered gelatin
16 ounces/455 grams cream cheese, at room temperature
3/4 cup/90 grams confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup/120 milliliters heavy cream
Sliced candied ginger, chopped pistachios, toasted coconut, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the crust: Add the gingersnaps to a food processor, roughly breaking them as you go, then pulse them into fine crumbs. (You should have about 2 1/4 cups). Add the melted butter, light brown sugar and salt to combine. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch springform pan, then press it evenly into the base and halfway up the sides of the pan. Freeze while you make the filling.
  • Prepare the filling: In a medium saucepan, heat the mango, sugar, ginger, turmeric and salt over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mango is very soft and starts to break down, 8 to 12 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.
  • Place 3 tablespoons cool water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let bloom for 5 minutes. Microwave until fluid, 15 to 30 seconds. (Alternatively, the bowl of gelatin can be placed over a small pot of simmering water until melted.)
  • Wipe out the bowl of the food processor, add the mango mixture and pulse until mostly smooth. Add the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar and pulse until combined and smooth. Scrape the bowl well, then pulse again to combine. Add the cream and process for 1 minute. Finally, add the melted gelatin and pulse briefly to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to the chilled crust and gently spread into an even layer. Wrap the pan in plastic wrap, transfer to the refrigerator, and chill for 12 hours (or up to 24 hours).
  • Gently run a small offset spatula or thin knife around the outer edge of the cake to loosen the crust, then release the outer ring. Run a large thin knife between the springform base and the bottom of the cake and use a large spatula to gently transfer the cake to a serving platter. (Alternatively, you can keep the cake on the base and transfer them together to a serving platter.)
  • If using any of the garnishes, sprinkle them around the outside edge just before slicing and serving.

PAPAYA TART

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 sheet frozen puff pastry (8 1/2 ounces)
2 teaspoons milk
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 medium papayas, peeled and cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (any left over can be used for the sorbet)
Juice of 2 or 3 limes (to taste)

Steps:

  • Allow 1 piece of puff pastry dough to defrost at room temperature (about 30 minutes).
  • Place a rack in the middle of oven, and heat to 400 degrees.
  • Open out the sheet of puff pastry. On a lightly floured surface, roll it out until it is about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out a 9-inch circle. Place on a parchment-covered baking sheet (or a baking sheet covered with greased aluminum foil). Leaving a 1/4-inch rim, prick the center of the dough all over with the tines of a fork. With a pastry brush, lightly coat the center of the dough with the milk. Push 1 tablespoon of the sugar through a coarse sieve to distribute evenly over the center of the dough. Bake for 5 minutes.
  • Gently toss the papaya with the lime juice. Remove the tart shell from the oven, and lay the papaya slices in a spoke pattern on the shell. Push the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar through a coarse sieve evenly over the top of the fruit.
  • Return to the oven for 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the sugar is caramelized. Remove from the oven, and slide off the baking pan onto a rack. Cool slightly and serve, or cool completely and reheat slightly just before serving. Cut into wedges with large kitchen scissors.

MALAYSIAN BAKED PAPAYA WITH GINGER



Malaysian Baked Papaya With Ginger image

A different version of baked papaya than the previous one I posted. This version has a crunchy filling/topping with pistachios, raisins, and ginger. If you don't care for raisins too much (like me), feel free to reduce the amount or leave them out entirely. If you need to leave out the pistachios, just sub in extra cookie crumbs to make up for some texture and volume. For another variation, use Greek yogurt in place of the heavy cream, and almonds in place of the pistachios. Adapted from Thai & Asian cookbook, untried by me. Posted for ZWT

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ripe papayas (not too soft, for better presentation)
2 pieces stem ginger in syrup, drained (reserve 1 tbs of ginger syrup)
8 amaretti cookies, coarsely crushed (or whatever type of sweet biscuit you prefer)
3 tablespoons raisins (optional)
1 lime, juice and finely chopped zest of
1/4 cup chopped pistachios
1 tablespoon light muscovado sugar (or light brown sugar)
4 tablespoons heavy cream, plus extra for serving (the extra can be lightly sweetened and whipped or liquid, as you prefer)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Cut the papayas in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place the halves (cut side up) in a large glass baking dish and set them aside while you prepare the filling/topping.
  • Cut the stem ginger into thin matchsticks. Combine the ginger with the crushed amaretti and raisins in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the lime juice, lime zest, and two-thirds of the nuts. Add the sugar and 4 tbs of cream. Mix well.
  • Divide the filling evenly amongst the papaya halves. Drizzle with the reserved ginger syrup and sprinkle with the reserved chopped nuts. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until papaya is tender. Serve slightly warm with the extra cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you can't find fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut.
  • Be sure to toast the coconut before using it in the tart. This will bring out its flavor and make it more fragrant.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the ginger and coconut by hand.
  • Be careful not to over-bake the tart. The crust should be golden brown and the filling should be just set.
  • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

This ginger coconut and papaya tart is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of ginger, coconut, and papaya is unique and flavorful, and the tart crust is the perfect complement to the creamy filling. This tart is sure to be a hit with your friends and family!
