It's a Chef's Life

What to do with the amazing raspberries my sister grew? Something very simple so madelines it is. Whip 2 eggs and 100g sugar to ribbons, whisk in 100g plain flour, zest and juice of one lime, 3/4t baking powder and 100g melted butter. Let batter sit for half an hour before baking at 200C.  

130g plain flour 50g cocoa powder 2 1/2t baking powder 1/2t salt 3 eggs 120g sunflower oil 240g plain yogurt 200g sugar Made these for my niece and nephew! Combine wet ingredients and add to dry, bake at 180C until a skewer comes out clean.

 Not the most photogenic meal, or the most sophisticated recipe but very delicious! Soften dried ancho chilies in boiling water, reserving liquid. Saute two diced onions in neutral oil with a good amount of adobo, add a pinch of cinnamon and a bigger pinch of cumin. Puree chilies with 50g raisins and 4T of the chili soaking liquid. Add two tablespoons of peanut butter and two tablespoons of chipotle puree. Add a 400g can of tomatoes and 400ml of water, bring to a boil and add 25g of dark chocolate. Add chicken thighs and chopped peppers, cook through and season to taste. Serve with rice.
