I will be making this beauty on @rteone this evening at 8 30. It’s a sponge filled with preserved raspberries and all wrapped in a pillowy marshmallow before having roses scattered all over it. It’s a special cake for the special people in your life. @kerrygoldirl @nomos.ie #cake #marshmallows #preserves #eat #delicious #ilovetocook

Macroom oatmeal with peaches & pomegranate.@NDC_ie

Macroom-Oatmeal

1 Serving

It’s wonderful on its own with a pinch of salt or with some fruit and honey. Use whatever fruit is good, ripe and in season. In winter, homemade jam is a perfect addition to porridge

 

Ingredients checklist
 1 tsp of water
 1½ teacups of milk
 a good pinch of sea salt
 ½ teacup of Macroom Oatmeal 
 soft brown sugar (optional)
Instructions
1.Put all the ingredients except the sugar into a saucepan on a medium heat and stir continuously. The oats will absorb the liquid very fast, so be careful not to let the mixture stick to the bottom.

2. After about 5 or 6 minutes, when the oatmeal has softened and is at the consistency of porridge, transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with a little bit of brown sugar if desired.

 

With saturn peaches, pomegranate and raw honey

3.Follow the same recipe as above, but use just a tiny pinch of sea salt. When you have transferred the oatmeal to your bowl, arrange some slices of good ripe Saturn peaches (also called doughnut peaches) in the middle, sprinkle a few pomegranate seeds over and drizzle generously with good-quality raw honey. Orange blossom or wildflower varieties work really well.

Rachel’s baked eggs with tomatoes, chorizo, chilli and cheese

baked-egg-chorizo-cheese

(Serves 4)
Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 large ripe tomatoes, skinned, seeded and chopped

Salt

2 tablespoons chopped parsley

A good pinch of crushed chilli peppers 
(dried chilli pepper flakes)

8 large eggs

8 slices of chorizo

50g (2oz) manchego or Parmesan, grated

4 slices of bread, toasted and buttered, 
to serve

 
 DIRECTIONS

 

Preheat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, Gas 4. Put a frying pan on a medium-low heat, add the olive oil then add the skinned, chopped tomatoes, see my tip, above left. Season with a good pinch of salt and cook for about 15 minutes, until the tomato sauce is thick and viscous.
Remove from the heat, stir in the chopped parsley and the crushed chilli peppers. Divide the tomato sauce between four ovenproof ramekins and break 2 eggs into each dish. Place a slice of the chorizo on top of each egg and divide the grated manchego or Parmesan cheese, whichever you’re using, between the ramekins.
Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, until the whites are set, but the yolks are just ever so slightly soft. Just before the eggs are ready, toast the slices of bread and butter them.
Remove the eggs from the oven and serve with the buttered toast.
