So this week I'm giving you a little preview of something that'sÌýcoming up at the school.Ìý

Our citrus orchard has produced some huge amounts of wonderful lemons, oranges and limes at the moment we are struggling to use them!Ìý

So for this month's supper club (which is an annual dinner event at the school) we are going to use lemons in every course to try and get through the 1000kg we have!ÌýÌý

Raisin Doughnuts w lemon caramel (serves 8)Ìý

Prep time: 45 minsÌý

Cooking time: 5 minsÌý

3 tbsp yeastÌý

3 tbsp sugarÌý

3 cups lukewarm milkÌý

600g flourÌý

pinch saltÌý

2 eggs, lightly beatenÌý

½ cup raisinsÌý

canola oil for deep fryingÌý

5 tbsp icing sugar, siftedÌý

1 tsp cinnamonÌý

Sprinkle yeast and sugar over milk and leave in a warm place for 10 minutes until frothy. Place four and salt in bowl of electric mixer, and begin to mix. Add egg and yeast mixture, then raisins.

Mix until smooth and thick. Cover and leave bowl in warm place for 30 minutes. Heat oil in a deep fryer to 190*C. Carefully place spoonfuls of mix into the hot oil. Doughnuts should float and spin, if not, turn them with spoon or tongs to ensure even cooking. Remove from oil when golden-brown, drain on absorbent paper.

Mix together icing sugar and cinnamon and use this to dust cooked doughnuts. Serve hot with the Miso caramelÌý

Lemon CaramelÌý

1 cup caster sugarÌý

100g butter, cut into small cubesÌý

150ml creamÌý

1 tsp saltÌý

Juice of 1 lemonÌý

Pour the sugar into a heavy pan and allow to melt down over a low heat. When melted, turn up the heat and allow to bubble until you achieve a nut brown caramel colour. Carefully whisk in the butter a bit at a time. Now whisk in the cream and lemon juice, return to the boil. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.Ìý
