Didn’t get around to making a plum pudding yet? Why don’t you try this ice cream one. No need to make it months in advance, the night before will be fine. All you have to do is cut up the fruit, add in the spices and gelatine, stir through the ice cream and put it back in the freezer till you need it. Merry Christmas…..
I always think of this as a very fancy trifle. I think that’s because it doesn’t have the traditional layering that most trifles have. It’s just the sponge base, topped with pureed strawberries, a very creamy, runny custard and lots of berries. It always looks and tastes marvellous.
I haven’t actually made these meatballs, but I do make a version with pork mince, chicken noodle soup and a dash of soy sauce that work really well. I make them for picnic lunches on driving holidays and to take to the F1 motor racing at Albert Park. Mine don’t have the cream cheese, but I think that’s a great idea and I’ll add it into the next batch I make.
I don’t know if this is the ‘best’ pasta salad, but it is pretty good. It makes a large bowl, so is great for parties and all the barbeques ahead of us over the festive season and summer.
