Hot Souffle Of Prunes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celcius.
• Blend together the puréed prunes and half the caster sugar- blend for about a minute on medium speed.
• Beat together the egg whites, lemon juice and remainder of caster sugar until fluffy and stiff- not quite"peaking".
• Very carefully, fold the beaten egg into the prune purée.
• Bake for about 20- 25 minutes, or until the top is brown and starting to crack.
• Enjoy piping hot with some whipped double cream.

Steps:

• Lightly spray four 6-ounce (2/3-cup) soufflé molds or ramekins with vegetable-oil cooking spray.
• In a small bowl stir together prunes, hot tea, lemon juice, and zest and let stand, covered, 15 minutes. Remove 3 prunes from mixture and coarsely chop. In a food processor purée remaining prune mixture (including soaking liquid) until very smooth. Cool purée and stir in chopped prunes. Purée may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring purée to room temperature before proceeding.
• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with a pinch salt until foamy. Beat in cream of tartar and beat whites until they just hold soft peaks. Gradually beat in granulated sugar and beat meringue until it just holds stiff peaks. Whisk about one fourth meringue into purée to lighten and fold in remaining meringue gently but thoroughly. Spoon mixture into molds or ramekins and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake soufflés in middle of oven until puffed and golden brown, about 16 minutes.
• Dust soufflés with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately. At table, with 2 forks pull open top of each soufflé and spoon 1 tablespoon frozen yogurt into each opening.

Steps:

• Beat egg whites until stiff. Fold in prune mixture. Spoon into buttered and sugared 8- to-10-cup souffle dish. Set in shallow pan containing one to two inches of hot water. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle top with confectioners' sugar. Serve with sweetened whipped cream.
