Odlums Cranberry & Brie tarts for a real festive treat!

odlums cranberry brie tarts

Tasty & savoury, check out our Cranberry & Brie tarts for a real festive treat!

What you need:

Short crust Pastry

  • 225g/8oz Odlums Strong flour – Sieved
  • Good pinch of salt
  • 125g/4oz Butter or Margarine
  • 1 Pinch of Goodalls Rosemary (optional)
  • 2 – 3 Tbsp of cold water

Filling:

  • Jar of Cranberry Sauce
  • 200g Brie Cheese
  • Black pepper

How to:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200c/400F/Gas Mark 6. Lightly grease 2 x 12 shallow bun trays.
  2. Sieve the flour and salt into a large bowl, grate the butter and mix lightly with the tips of the fingers to combine. Add the rosemary (if using) and gradually add small amounts of cold water. Use a knife instead of a wooden spoon as the metal will be colder and will help bring your ingredients together better.
  3. Mix until the mixture forms a dough.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured worktop and lightly knead it.
  5. Dust your rolling pin with a little flour and roll it out until the pastry becomes quite thin as this will rise during baking.
  6. Use a cookie/scone cutter and cut out rounds. Put the rounds into shallow cupcake/bun trays.
  7. Pierce the pastry with a fork before putting them into the oven to bake.
  8. Once you have done this pop the baking tray into the top shelve of the oven for no more than 15 minutes.
  9. After 15 minutes take out the baked pastry so you can fill them. Leave the oven on as these will need to go back in for a further 5 minutes
  10. In each round, place a small dollop of cranberry sauce, topped with a cube of Brie put them back in the oven for 5 minutes. Top shelf and at the same temperature as above.

 To Serve:

Sprinkle with some black pepper and garnish with a little greenery, like parsley or chopped chives. Serve with a side salad. You could also replace the Brie with some Goats cheese.

Kate McDermott’s Cranberry Pie @KerrygoldUSA

kate's cranberry pie

You may be surprised to learn that Cranberry Pie is another way to enjoy this seasonal fruit other than traditional sauce or relish we find on many holiday tables. If you enjoy a fresh sour cherry pie in the summer, you will love this pie made with cranberries. I use them fresh in season, and also freeze them so I can use them year round. Add a handful of chopped walnut meats to these bright red orbs of delightful tartness, and a bit of orange liqueur to the filling or in a small glass to pair with the pie when it is served.

Ingredients:

  • 1 qt (4 cups) cranberries, chopped (add some whole berries, too)
  • 1-1/4 cups sugar
  • 3 teaspoons cornstarch (there’s a lot of pectin in cranberries so very little thickener is needed)
  • A small pinch of nutmeg
  • A small pinch of salt
  • 1 oz orange (liqueur optional)
  • 1/2-1 cup chopped walnut meats (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon Kerrygold Irish Salted Butter
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 Art of the Pie double crust recipe or your crust recipe of choice.

Directions:

  1. Put cranberries, sugar, cornstarch, nutmeg, salt, and optional walnuts and orange liqueur in a large bowl. Mix well with a spoon and set aside.
  2. Roll out bottom crust and place in pie plate and spoon cranberry filling into it. Dot top of filling with 1 tablespoon of Kerrygold Irish Butter broken into small pieces.
  3. Roll out remaining dough disk and carefully lay top crust over filling. Trim excess dough, crimp edges of pie and cut some vents in top crust.
  4. Separate egg white into a small bowl and fork beat with 1 tablespoon water. Brush crust with egg mixture and sprinkle with 1-2 teaspoons of sugar.
  5. Bake on the middle rack of the oven until crust is just golden, about 40 minutes at 375 degrees F. Depending on your oven, it may take a little more time!

Note: Use a food processor to chop the cranberries quickly. I chop 3 cups of the cranberries and add 1 cup whole for a filling with varied texture.

Debbie’s Red Quinoa Tabbouleh with Toasted Pinenuts and Pomegranates

quinoa-salad-recipe_0

Serves 8.
You will need:
  • 225g (8oz) red or black quinoa
  • 350ml (12fl oz) of cold water
  • Pinch of salt
  • 25g (1oz) fresh parsley, chopped
  • 25g (1oz) fresh mint, chopped
  • 110g (4oz) spring onions, white and green parts, chopped
  • 50g (1¾oz) dried cranberries
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and grated
  • 1½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground allspice
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pomegranate, cut in half, seeds removed
  • 75g (3oz) toasted pine nuts (toasted in a dry frying pan over a high heat)
  • For the olive oil dressing, you will need:
  • 50ml (1¾fl oz) extra-virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Rinse the red or black quinoa, whichever you are using, in a sieve under cold water for two to three minutes to remove the bitter coating. Put the quinoa in a saucepan with the cold water and the salt and add a tight-fitting lid. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 12 minutes until the quinoa is tender. Turn off the heat, but leave the lid on for 10 more minutes.

To make the dressing, mix the extra-virgin olive oil, the lemon juice and the honey. Add the dressing to the warm quinoa and allow it to cool. Then add in the chopped parsley, the chopped mint, the chopped spring onions, the dried cranberries, the grated carrots, the ground cinnamon and the ground allspice to the cooled quinoa. Mix well and season with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Tip into a serving bowl and scatter the pomegranate seeds and the toasted pine nuts over the top.
