🤩Recipe of the Week 🤩

Red onion gravy

Our red onion gravy is rich and delicious. Perfect for pouring over roasts, cottage pie or bangers and mash

🤩Ingredients 🤩

⭐️Low-calorie cooking spray
⭐️2 white onions, finely chopped
⭐️3 red onions, sliced
⭐️1 garlic clove, finely chopped
⭐️1 heaped tsp tomato purée
⭐️1 tsp balsamic vinegar
⭐️1 beef stock cube

🤩Method 🤩

⭐️Spray a large non-stick pan with low-calorie cooking spray and gently fry the white onions until soft or microwave for 2 minutes on full power. Blend using a stick blender until smooth, adding a drop of water if needed. Remove from the pan and set aside.

⭐️Fry the red onions in the same pan and cook until browned.

⭐️Return the puréed white onion to the pan and add the garlic, tomato purée, balsamic vinegar, stock cube and 100ml of water. Stir well and simmer for 5 minutes, then season to taste. If you prefer a thinner gravy, just add more water.

🎄Recipe of the Week 🎄

🍫Chocolate-drizzled meringue kisses💋

Pop these light and airy bites into a gift box for a thoughtful pressie – or into your mouth for a sweet treat!

½ Syn each
1 hour 30 minutes plus 20 minutes cooling
Makes 60

🤩Ingredients 🤩

⭐️2 medium egg whites
⭐️60g caster sugar
⭐️40g dark chocolate, broken into squares
⭐️Edible lustre or glitter, to decorate (optional)

🤩Method 🤩

⭐️Preheat your oven to 120°C/fan 100°C/gas ½ and line a large baking tray with baking paper. In a large glass bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand whisk until they form medium-stiff peaks.

⭐️Add the sugar a spoonful at a time, whisking for 30 seconds between each addition. When all the sugar is used up and the meringue is glossy and holds its shape, stop whisking. Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a fluted nozzle, and carefully pipe 60 kisses onto the tray by squeezing down gently, then lifting the piping bag straight up. Bake for 1 hour, or until the meringues are crisp and lift easily from the paper. Turn off the oven, prop open the door and leave them inside to cool.

⭐️Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Stir it occasionally, until it’s melted and glossy. (Or you could microwave the chocolate on medium for 30-second intervals.)

⭐️Using a teaspoon, evenly drizzle the chocolate over the kisses. Spray with some lustre or scatter over the glitter (if using) and leave until the chocolate has completely cooled. If you’re gifting the kisses, carefully pack them into gift boxes or bags (we recommend 10 per gift).

These kisses can be baked up to three days ahead. Keep them somewhere cool and dry until you’re ready to wrap them up and delight your loved ones!
