We are making a tongue-twister named dish, Clafoutis which is a traditional dish from the North-end of France. We are making it using plums and Camel milk!

Will make a 25cm flan dish, (approx 6-8 serves)

  • 5 large plums, if they are small use 6-8
  • 1 tablespoon caster sugar
  • Pinch of cinnamon

The batter:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • Finely grated zest of ½ a lemon
  • 360 ml camel milk
  • 30 mls Old Youngs 1827 Gin
  • 120 grams melted butter, plus butter to wipe the clafoutis dishes
  • 130 grams castor sugar
  • 130 grams plain flour

To serve:

  • Fresh whipped cream

Method:
First prepare your plums:

  • Preheat oven to 150c
  • Halve plums and remove stone
  • Place onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar and a small amount of cinnamon
  • Place into oven and cook until they just begin to soften, depending on ripeness, this will take 5-10 minutes
  • Remove and cool. Reserve.

To make the Clafoutis:

  • Preheat oven to 180C.
  • Combine eggs and sugar.
  • Add the vanilla essence to the eggs together with the lemon zest and gin. Beat lightly together.
  • Add milk and beat while pouring the melted butter into the mix.
  • Tip in castor sugar, and gradually beat in the flour to make a smooth batter.
  • Brush the flan dish 25cm with a little melted butter, place plum halves into the base of the dish and flood the dish with batter.
  • Place into oven to cook for approximately 25-30 minutes.
  • Clafoutis will be cooked when a skewer inserted into the centre of the pudding comes out clean.
