Marmite And Cheese Whirls Food

MARMITE AND CHEESE WHIRLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220°C/425/Gas 7. Line baking sheet with non stick paper.
• Roll out the pastry to about 14x10 inches.
• Spread the Marmite on the pastry, leaving a 1cm border. Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle cheese over Marmite.
• Roll up the pastry like a Swiss roll, starting from the long edge. Roll it quite tightly. Brush the outside of the pastry with beaten egg.
• Cut roll into thick slices and place on baking sheet.
• Cook for 12-15 minutes until pastry is risen and golden.
• Serve warm or cold.

NEXT LEVEL MAC 'N' CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Cook the macaroni in salted water for 2 mins less than the stated cooking time, so it still has plenty of bite. Drain well and toss with a small knob of the butter to stop it from sticking together.
• In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the remaining butter until frothy and nut-brown. Pour off 1 tbsp into a small bowl and place the pan back on the heat, then scatter over and whisk in the flour and cook for 3 mins until you have a sandy paste. Add the milk, a splash at a time, simmering and whisking until smooth between each addition. Once all the milk has been added, drizzle in the evaporated milk, then add the grated cheddar, a handful at a time, until you have a thick, cheesy sauce. Stir through the mustard powder, cayenne, Marmite and vinegar and taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper as needed.
• Remove from heat, stir in the macaroni, then stir through the chunks of cheese. Tip the contents of the saucepan into a large, buttered baking dish. In a small bowl, mix together all the breadcrumbs, the parmesan, another small pinch of cayenne and some crunchy sea salt if you want. Scatter the crumbs over the macaroni, drizzle with the reserved brown butter and bake for 30-35 mins until lightly browned, crunchy all over and bubbling around the edges. Leave to stand for 10 mins before serving straight from the dish.

MARMITE AND CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Toast bagel spread on cream cheese and then the amount of marmite you like and enjoy.

LOVE IT OR HATE IT - MARMITE AND CHEESE STRAWS WITH A TWIST!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
• Divide the packet of puff pastry into four and use one portion at a time (popping the rest back in the fridge).
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll each portion to a rectangle measuring about 31cm x 21cm.
• Spread the pastry with the marmite and then sprinkle with a quarter of the grated cheese.
• Fold the pastry over lengthways and press firmly together.
• Cut about eight 1cm wide strips then cut each strip in half (so the straws aren't too long) and twist.
• Arrange on baking sheets and chill for 10 minutes before cooking or freeze until ready to cook, then bake for 7-10 minutes, until golden brown and puffed up - the cheese will also have melted.
• Trim the ends of the straws and carefully stand in glasses for a spectacular way of serving the straws.
• Alternatively, freeze the uncooked straws in baking sheets lined with parchment and cook from frozen when your guests arrive - you may need to add a few minutes to the cooking time.

MARMITE AND CHEESE BREAD

Steps:

• In large bowl combine 1/2 cup fall pupose flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour salt, and yeast. Heat water until very warm (120º - 130º F) and dissolve Marmite and butter in it. Stir into the dry ingredients.
• Add enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until soft and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Knead in the cheese.
• Cover; let rest on floured surface about 10 minutes.
• Punch down dough and roll into a 12 X 7 inch rectangle. Starting from the shorter end, roll up tightly like a jellyroll. Pinch the seams and ends to seal them. Place seam side down in an 8- X 4-inch loaf pan. Cover; let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in size, about 90 minutes.
• Brush the top lightly with milk. Bake on the middle shelf of a preheated 375º oven for 30-40 minutes or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom crust. If the crust is browning too quickly, cover with aluminum foil until finished cooking.
• Remove from pan; let cool on wire rack. Enjoy!

CHEESE, MARMITE & SPINACH PINWHEELS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Unroll the pastry with the longer side directly in front of you. Spread the Marmite over the surface. Tear the spinach over the Marmite and scatter with the cheese, making sure it's evenly spread.
• Tightly roll the pastry away from you (starting from the longer side) to create a long sausage shape, then cut into 12 pieces. Arrange over two baking trays lined with baking parchment, spiral side up, and squash down a little with your hand. Will keep covered and frozen at this stage. Bake for 15-20 mins (or 25 mins if cooking from frozen), until puffed and golden brown.

CHEESE & PESTO WHIRLS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, yeast, sugar and 1½ tsp fine salt in a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of a tabletop mixer. Measure out 300ml warm water and add roughly 280ml to the flour, along with the olive oil, and start mixing until the ingredients start to clump together as a dough. If the dough seems a little dry, add the remaining water. Once combined, knead for 10 mins by hand on your work surface, or for 5 mins on a medium speed in a mixer. The dough is ready when it feels soft, springy and elastic. Clean the bowl, drizzle in a little oil, then pop the dough back in, turning it over and coating the sides of the bowl in oil. Cover with some oiled cling film and set aside in a warm place to double in size - this will take 1-3 hrs, depending on the temperature.
• Line a baking tray with parchment. Uncover the dough and punch it down a couple of times with your fist, knocking out all the air bubbles. Tip out onto a floured work surface and dust the top with a little flour too, if it is sticky. Roll the dough out to a rectangle, roughly 40 x 30cm. Spread the pesto over the dough, then scatter over the tomatoes, both cheeses and the basil. Roll the dough up from one of the longer sides, into a long sausage.
• Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 12 even pieces. Place on the baking tray, cut-side up, in a 3-by-4 formation, making sure the open end of each roll is tucked in towards the centre on the arrangement - this will prevent them from uncoiling during cooking. Leave a little space between each roll as they will grow and touch as they prove. Loosely cover with oiled cling film and leave to prove for 30 mins-1 hr until almost doubled in size again. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• Uncover the bread when it is puffed up. Bake on the middle shelf in the oven for 35-40 mins until golden brown and the centre looks dry and not doughy. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for at least 10 mins.
