Traditional Scottish Recipes
Raspberry Scottish Cranachan
-from the recipe section of the SASC newsletter - 'The Highland Herald'
Raspberry Scottish Cranachan is a very quick, easy recipe. It is also a very festive recipe and perfect for any celebration, especially Christmas, Hogmanay and rounding off a Burns' Night Supper beautifully. However, Scottish Cranachan is too good though to save just for special occasions, and is especially good in the summer, making the most of delicious Scottish raspberries for a truly authentic recipe. But don't worry if you can't find Scottish fruit, any raspberries will do. With the wonderful ingredients in the Cranachan, it tastes good anyway.
Prep Time: 5 minutes; Cook Time: 10 minutes; Total Time: 15 minutes Ingredients:
2 oz/55g pinhead oatmeal
250g/8.5oz fresh raspberries
1 pint/475ml heavy/double cream
3 tbsp malt whisky
1 tbsp + extra Scottish heather honey to serve (optional)
Preparation: Heat a large, heavy based skillet/frying pan on the stove until
hot. Add the oats, and while stirring constantly, toast the oats until they have a light, nutty smell and are just beginning to change colour. Do not leave unattended, the oatmeal can quickly burn. Remove the oats from the pan.Keep a handful of the raspberries to one side, place the remaining raspberries into a food processor and whiz once or twice to create a thick pureĢe.
Do not over blend; it's fine if there are a few large lumps of whole raspberry. In a large bowl, whisk the cream and whisky to form firm peaks. In either a glass trifle bowl or individual serving glasses, layer the dessert starting with cream, followed by raspberries, followed by oatmeal. You can either make small layers repeating several times or layer 1/3 of each to fill the bowl or glass. Always finish with a layer of cream and a light sprinkling of oatmeal.
Cover the bowl or glasses with plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of one hour, or several if possible.
To serve, drizzle over a little extra honey (optional) and a shortbread.
