Now try this for a trifle recipe!
Before one of my beloved flatmates (housemate) went on his OE (overseas experience) we had a rollicking good Xmas (Christmas) meal together.
We cleared off the coffee table and ladened it with roast chicken, gravy, minted peas, roast potatoes and kumara (pronounced: kooo-maaa-ra (sweet potato)), salad...
But the item that really topped off the feast was a bucket (9 litre - yes we use metric in the South Pacific, and we have have running water from the tap (faucet) too) of TRIFLE!
Ingredients:
* tinned peaches or apricots or just mixed fruit salad
* dessicated coconut
* custard (made from the powder, or if you must - ready-made)
* 2 "flake" bars (flaky chocolate)
* one big plain sponge soaked in Sherry (none of that wine cr@p)
* whipped cream (or thickened whatever you guys call it)
Method:
Leave aside a 1/4 of the custard and some of the chocolate and coconut. Get aforementioned 9 litre bucket and line the bottom with some of the sherry soaked sponge. Layer the rest of the ingredients with the remaining sponge until you can stand it no longer.
Top with the set-aside custard and sprinkle with chocolate and coconut. Put into fridge (guys may have to move the beer!) and let it settle for a couple of hours.
Enjoy!
Now the question is: how is this thread "job-related".
Plus I think I've won the prize for the most ( in one post.
(plus New Zealanders made the Pavalova first, not the Aussies!) |
