It\u2019s late summer in the Malvega garden, and the wonderful Mirabelle plums have ripened beautifully. They truly are a feast for the eyes. Do they remind anyone else of Grandma’s best cakes? Mmmmh! Thinking of the taste, and breathing in the lovely smell, a group of colleagues decides to do something a little different during their lunch break. Just like we creatively package products, the group wants to pack freshly-picked fruit into a truly scrumptious tarte tatin. Our colleague and passionate amateur chef Werner quickly suggests a recipe from his repertoire. As a team, we conjure up a magnificent cake in an instant. Fantastic \u2013 a great time was had by all!<\/p>\n
Are your taste buds tingling to try this delicious treat? Here’s the recipe (makes 1 tarte):<\/p>\n
100 g sugar approx.
\n700 g Mirabelle plums (or a panful)
\n100 g sugar
\n200 g butter
\n300 g flour
\n1 egg
\n1 pinch of salt
\n200 ml cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche
\n1 vanilla pod, scratched out<\/p>\n
Pre-heat the oven to 200\u00baC (gas mark 6)<\/p>\n
Put 100\u00a0g of sugar into a small pan (\u00d8 approx. 22\u00a0cm). Place the half-cut plums, with the cut side facing downwards, on top of the sugar. Now caramelise the sugar. Be careful not to let it brown too much, or else it will have a bitter taste. Put the pan to one side, and leave the contents to rest.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, make a dough from the sugar, butter, flour, egg and the pinch of salt. Leave it to rest for 1 hour. Then roll the dough out flat, so that it is slightly larger than the diameter of the pan. Lie it on top of the caramelised plums, so that it covers them.<\/p>\n
Bake at 200\u00baC until golden brown. Leave to cool for a while, then tip out onto a plate.<\/p>\n
Refine the cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche with the scratched out vanilla.<\/p>\n
Best served warm, to allow the flavours to unfold. Add a cup of coffee and a dollop of vanilla cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche. Bon app\u00e9tit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
