Schmarren With Raisins Recipes

KAISERSCHMARREN

Steps:

• Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Beat the egg yolks in a separate bowl until smooth; mix in the milk, sugar, salt, flour, and raisins until just moistened. Fold in the egg whites.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour the batter into the skillet and cook until golden brown; flip and cook until set on the other side, about 1 minute. Tear the kaiserschmarren into pieces using two forks and continue cooking until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar to garnish and serve with applesauce.

SCHMARREN WITH RAISINS

Steps:

• Bring the raisins and rum to just under the boil in a small pan, then remove from the heat and leave to soak for 1 hr. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• Sift the flour into a bowl with a pinch of salt and the caster sugar. Make a well in the centre, and add the egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually add the milk, stirring all the time and gradually bringing in all the flour. You want to end up with a thick, smooth batter. Stir in the lemon and orange zests.
• Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl to medium peak stage using an electric whisk, then fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a large metal spoon.
• Melt the butter in a deep 30cm ovenproof frying pan, and, when foaming, tip in all the batter. Cook until it starts to firm up at the edge, then spoon over the rum-soaked raisins. Continue to cook until the bottom of the pancake is set (check by gently lifting with a palette knife) then bake in the oven for 7-10 mins.
• Tear the pancake into rough pieces and arrange in a large gratin dish. Bake for 6-8 mins more until golden and crisp at the edges, then dust with some icing sugar and serve with thick cream.

KAISERSCHMARRN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• To make the meringue: Place the 3 egg whites and pinch of salt in an electric mixer and gradually add the 1 1/2 ounces of granulated sugar. Whisk to soft peaks.
• To make the "kaiser" base: Combine the 4 egg yolks and 3 ounces of granulated sugar in a large bowl and add the creme fraiche. Whisk until it turns a pale yellow. (You can use an electric mixer.) Add the raisins, flour and rum and continue to mix until smooth. Fold the meringue into the "kaiser" base. (The key to success with this spectacular dish is folding in the meringue perfectly ¿ don't over mix and don't under mix! As soon as the meringue is combined it's ready to bake in a hot oven.)
• Spoon the souffle mixture into two 6-inch saute pans that have been brushed with butter and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Take the Kaiserschmarrns to the oven and bake for 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the strawberry sauce, combine 1/2 pound of the strawberries, the 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar and the lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the flavors to infuse for 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender, process until well incorporated and strain. (This can be prepared up to 3 days ahead.)
• To serve, reheat the sauce in a medium saute pan, add the remaining 1 pound strawberries and toss until well coated.
• To assemble, spoon the strawberry sauce onto two serving dishes and scoop out the Kaisershmarrns on top of the fruit in three large spoonfuls. Dust with powdered sugar.
