Sticky Fig Pudding
Amongst Salted Caramel & Kokosnoot Topping

July 8, 2018


Hosting an Ottolenghi Club gathering inward our ain dwelling household is an chance to brand something that doesn't go well, in addition to this was at the forefront of my heed every bit I browsed Sweet. The best wintery contender, I thought, was the viscid fig pudding alongside salted caramel in addition to kokosnoot topping - it could go right away from the oven to the table, even thence warm! 

The prologue to the recipe mentions that it takes inspiration from the viscid engagement puddings that are thence mutual on Australian in addition to Kiwi menus. My sense of those puddings is that the dates blend completely into the caramelly pudding, spell hither chopped apples in addition to dried figs offering some gentle, fruity variation inward the cakes. Their grooming is no to a greater extent than arduous than for a measure cake - musical rhythm out together butter in addition to sugar, in addition to then an egg, followed past times the dry out ingredients. I prepped the fruit before inward the day, in addition to then readied the cakes inward the hr before our guests arrived, spooning the batter into a paper-lined muffin tray in addition to popping them into the oven every bit nosotros sat downward to swallow the principal meal.

Muffin trays are the 'inelegant' choice to the recipe's preferred serving method, something to create alongside bottomless rings in addition to tulip papers that I'd never fifty-fifty heard of. I wasn't likewise bothered, in addition to nor were my guests, every bit they watched me melt together the kokosnoot caramel in addition to bake it onto the cakes subsequently dinner. It was a piddling messy, but inward the best possible way, alongside the cakes soaking upward some of the syrup in addition to whatsoever spills setting into a chewier caramel but about the edges. The kokosnoot was also toasty in addition to chewy in addition to actually the star of the dish, fifty-fifty if it wasn't every bit pretty every bit a tulip.

I served i piddling pudding to each guest, alongside the selection of cream or icecream on the side. We all had the skilful fortune of some other leftover pudding each to bask the adjacent day, in addition to they were even thence quite lovely at room temperature.
