Meanwhile, slake the cornflour in the 1 tbsp of water (which just means to mix together thoroughly!) and pour into the inner pot with the sausages. Turn it back onto Sauté and quickly, the sauce/gravy will start to thicken. Dish up the mash and serve the sausages and onion gravy on top.

A dessert that is dripping with salted caramel is always a winner. We love this variation of the classic Eton mess.

Harry Potter&#x27;s favorite dessert: treacle tart, a very simple and delicious homemade tart recipe made with golden syrup, fresh breadcrumbs and lemon juice.

Harry Potter's Treacle Tart

Pastry:

280 g/ 10 oz/ 1 cup + 2 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter (See note 1)

350 g/ 12.4 oz/ scant 3 cups all-purpose flour

salt

ready-made pie crusts

Filling:

315 g/ 11 oz/ 7/8 cup + 1 tablespoon golden syrup (See note 2)

110 g/ 3.8 oz/ 2 ¼ cups fresh breadcrumbs (See note 3)

Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the very cold water, and pulse a few times again until the dough comes together. Add the third tablespoon of water if necessary, sometimes I do add it, sometimes not, it depends on how exactly you weigh the flour and sometimes on the brand of the flour itself. The dough should hold together when you press a little bit of it between your fingers.

Form a ball, divide it into two discs, one a bit larger than the other, and wrap the discs tightly in plastic foil.

Combine the syrup, breadcrumbs, lemon zest, and lemon juice very well.

My pie dish has a diameter of 23 cm/ 9 inches, so I rolled the dough into a circle of about 26 cm/ 10 inches in diameter. It is loose-bottomed (like a springform), which makes things easier for me when removing the pie from the form. A regular dish works as well, but you will have to be more careful when taking the tart out of the form. Or use a ceramic pie dish, so you can cut and serve the tart directly from the dish.

If you want to decorate the treacle tart to resemble Harry Potter, cut out the glasses, the scar, and the mouth. You will have leftover pastry in this case. You can cut it into biscuits and bake them separately until golden. Or freeze the leftover pastry for making a small pie some other time.

Pour the filling into the prepared pie dish...

Pour the filling into the prepared pie dish and level the top. Lay half of the strips over the filling in one direction and the other half of the strips in the other direction to form a lattice. Trim the edges.

Bake the tart for 10 minutes at 200 degrees/ 400 degrees Fahrenheit, then reduce the heat to 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit and continue baking for another 25 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling puffs up in the center. The filling should still be slightly jiggly.

A Ploughman's Lunch is the English equivalent of a Snacky Lunch. Quick to prepare and easy to share, it's an ideal no-cook meal and excellent for packing on the go.

Ploughman's Lunch

tbsp white wine vinegar

black pepper

egg (, hard-cooked, peeled and cut in half)

oz sliced English cheese

bread bread

seasonal fruit

cornichons

English pickle

tbsp butter (,

In a small bowl, place the onion slices. Pour over the vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Allow to sit to allow the onion to marinade. This also removes some of the bitterness and heat from the onions.

Meanwhile, divide the eggs, ham, cheese, bread, fruit, and cucumber pickles among four platters, boards, or dinner plates.&nbsp;

Divide the English pickle into four small dishes or ramekins. Place a ramekin and a pat of butter on each plate.

Divide the pickled onions among the four plates and serve immediately.

A classic, simple British dish that is served for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Beans on Toast (The Proper British Way - Recipe by a Brit!)

Heinz Beans ((made in England) 415 g/14.6 oz)

bread

Put the beans into a small pot over medium low heat.

Put the bread in the toaster, and make the toast as desired. (If you like, you can butter the toast, but I find it unecessary as the beans are the primary flavor.)

Stir the beans, and heat until almost boiling, but don't allow to boil. (According to directions on the tin, this will affect the flavor.)

Place the toast on plates, and spoon ⅓ tin of the beans over the top of each slice. Serve immediately, preferably with a cup of hot tea.

In Oregon, we have a bit of a hard time finding the beans. if you do, they're $5 a can! I might have to find a bulk supplier.

My Dad enjoyed BEANS ON TOAST, not sure ever on bread not toasted.  I can see him sitting at the kitchen table, enjoying and chatting with my Mother.
