Meal type: starters
 Product: Kerrygold Salted Butter
 Serves: 6 cups

Ingredients

For Soup:

2 tablespoons Kerrygold

Salted Butter

1 cup chopped onion

3 1/2 cups peeled, chopped carrots

2 teaspoons minced garlic

3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger

2 1/2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

1 (14oz) can coconut milk

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric

Curried chickpeas

Chopped fresh cilantro

For Curried Chickpeas:

1 (14oz) can chickpeas, drained

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon curry powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions:

For Soup:

  1. Melt Kerrygold Salted Butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and carrots and cook until onions are translucent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Stir in garlic and ginger and cook for another minute.
  3. Stir in remaining soup ingredients and stir to combine. Allow soup to come to a boil and then reduce heat to medium low and cover.
  4. Cook for 35-40 minutes or until carrots are fork tender. Allow to cool slightly.
  5. Transfer soup to a blender in batches and puree until smooth (tip: be careful to only fill the blender jar to about 1/3 – 1/2 full. Secure the lid on the top and hold a dish towel over it to prevent the top from coming off during blending).
  6. Season soup to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
  7. Top with curried chickpeas and fresh cilantro.

For Curried Chickpeas:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Place drained chickpeas on a dish towel. Carefully blot them dry with another dish towel (the drier the chickpeas, the more they will crisp up in the oven). Discard and papery skins from the chickpeas.
  3. Pour chickpeas onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and salt and gently stir them around so they are coated on all sides. Bake for 25 minutes.
  4. Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle chickpeas with curry, cumin and pepper. Stir to coat. Return pan to oven and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until chickpeas are crisp

NOTE: Roasted chickpeas will lose their crispness when stored. They are best enjoyed immediately after baking.

Rachel Allen’s Irish Gingerbread @RTEfood

 
 
 
 

There’s no better accompaniment for a hot pot of tea than this gingerbread from Rachel Allen.

Ingredients

  • 60 g (2½oz) butter
  • 75 g (3oz) treacle
  • 50 g (2oz) golden syrup
  • 140 g (4¾oz) plain flour
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
  • 100 g (3½oz) caster sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 egg
  • 125 ml (4½fl oz) milk
  • for the syrup
  • 75 g (3oz) caster sugar
  • 2 tsp finely grated root ginger, or finely chopped crystallised ginger

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°C (325°F), Gas mark 3. Line the base and sides of a 900g (2lb) loaf tin with baking parchment.
  2. Melt the butter, treacle and golden syrup in a small saucepan on a low heat, then set aside.
  3. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and baking powder into a bowl and stir in the spices, sugar and salt. In another bowl, whisk the egg, then add the milk and the melted butter mixture and pour into the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth – it will have a wet sloppy consistency.
  4. Pour into the prepared loaf tin and bake in the oven for 50–55 minutes until risen and firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. (Wait for at least 45 minutes before opening the oven to check whether the gingerbread has cooked, otherwise it can collapse in the centre.)
  5. While the gingerbread is cooking, make the syrup. Place the sugar and ginger in a small saucepan with 75ml (3fl oz) water, bring to the boil over a medium heat and boil, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened and syrupy.
  6. Once the gingerbread is cooked, take it out of the oven and, leaving it in the tin, pierce it all over the top with a fine skewer, then pour the syrup over and leave to cool completely.
  7. When the gingerbread is cold, take it out of the tin and serve.

Spicy Barbecue Chicken @ClevelandClinic #foodaware

Instead of using pre-packaged barbecue sauce, which often contains high fructose corn syrup and tends to be very high in sodium, this recipe calls for more natural sources of sugar, including honey and molasses, and no added salt. With plenty of flavor in healthy ingredients, garlic is also good for your heart, while cayenne pepper and ginger provide anti-inflammatory protection.

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons (3 ounces) tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 teaspoons white vinegar
  • 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/8 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken (breasts, drumsticks), skinless

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients except chicken in a saucepan.
  2. Simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Wash chicken and pat dry. Place on large platter and brush with half of sauce mixture.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour.
  5. Place chicken on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and broil for 10 minutes on each side to seal in juices.
  6. Turn oven to 350 F and add remaining sauce to chicken. Cover chicken with aluminum foil and continue baking for 30 minutes.
