Cook with Raymond Blanc: Cherry Clafoutis
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- Clafoutis is one of the great classics of French family cuisine. This dessert often features on our menus, both at Belmond Le Manoir Manoir aux Quat’Saisons and at Brasserie Blanc. It is very easy to prepare and I would go as far as to say it is ‘foolproof’. Other stone fruits, such as peaches, plums and apricots, or indeed figs, work just as well.
Serves 4
Preparation: 30 mins, plus 2 hours macerating
Cooking: 30-35 mins
Special equipment: 20cm round ceramic or cast-iron baking dish (5cm deep); cherry stoner
For the cherries
450g best-quality ripe cherries, stoned
50g caster sugar
2-3 tbsp kirsch, to taste (optional)
For preparing the dish
10g unsalted butter, melted
30g caster sugar
For the batter
2 medium eggs, free-range/organic
2 medium egg yolks, free-range/organic
30g caster sugar
50g plain flour
70ml whole milk
70ml whipping cream
½ tsp vanilla extract
To finish
1 tbsp caster sugar
For the cherries and lining the baking dish
In a large bowl, gently mix the cherries, sugar and kirsch together and leave to macerate for 2 hours.
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
Brush the inside of your baking dish with the melted butter, sprinkle in the sugar and tilt the dish to coat the sides and base evenly; shake out any excess.
To make the batter
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, caster sugar and flour together.
Whisk in the milk, whipping cream and vanilla until you have a smooth batter.
Bake in the pre-heated oven for 30-35 minutes until the clafoutis is lightly risen and a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Halfway through cooking, you could add a sprinkle of caster sugar to give a lovely crust to the top.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and leave to stand for about 10 minutes.
Sprinkle with a little icing sugar and serve just warm.

This looks good - i don't want to crticise his cookjng too much - i would say a bit more batter, a few less cherries. The clafouti is always delicious and i'm happy to see this made.
I ove your cooking, I'm a fan often watch your chooking shows and learn tips and news dishes. This one is one of my favs, even as a child cooking with my ouma to make, also love it with peaches and pears or even grapes served with whipped cream yum.
Such a culinary legend. I'll try this out!
I made one today for Australian day. Bonjour de Melbourne 👍👍👍
Just made this! Smells amazing but have to hold myself back until tomorrow as it's for dessert after lunch. I followed the recipe from Raymond Blanc's home page, but it's the same essentially.
I wouldn't wait to eat this later. I suspect the batter might become a little flabby in texture. However, as you are esting fresh cherries, it will be delicious
He is sooooo good looking
