Title: Bara Brith (Currant Bread) Welsh
Categories: Breads
Servings: 16

1/4 lb Dried fruit 4 oz Candied peel
1 pt Warm water 1/2 t Mixed spice
2 lb Plain flour 2 t Salt
6 oz Lard 1 oz Fresh yeast
1/2 lb Demerara sugar 2 ea Eggs

Oven: 450F, Gas Mark 8 for 15 minutes: 375F, Gas Mark 5 for 45 minutes.

Soak the fruit and candied peel in the water with the spice. Leave to
steep in a warm place and use the warm spicy, strained water to mix the
dough.

Sift the flour and salt and rub in the lard; cream the yeast with the
sugar and a little of the spiced water; mix this into the flour, together
with the eggs and use enough of the water to give a firm, yet elastic
dough.

Knead well, leave to rise and knock back; blend in the drained fruit and
knead again.

Shape the dough into loaves and set into greased 1 lb tins in a warm place
to prove; bake, reducing the temperature after the first 15 minutes.

Originally, in some recipies, the fruit content would have been fresh
currants or blackberries.

Bara Brith is often served as part of the traditional Welsh tea. It can
also be purchased at many of the small bakeries found throughout Wales.

Here is one of my current favorite recipes, quick and delicious.
It freezes well also. Serves about 4 as a main dish.

Lentils Ole (originally from the Jane Brody Good Food Gourmet, modified)

1c lentils
3c water
1/2c chopped scallions (green white parts), or onion (either is good)
1/2c green peppers, diced
1/2c red peppers, diced
1 TBSP chili powder (adjust to taste, esp. if you use spicy chili powder)
1/2 tsp cumin seeds, crushed (what I use) or 1 tsp ground cumin
4 cloves minced garlic
1-2 TBSP red wine vinegar
1 8oz can tomato sauce
1 TBSP molasses

Bring the lentils and water to a boil, then cover simmer for about 25 – 30
minutes until soft but not mushy. While the lentils cook, saute the scallions,
pepppers, garlic, chili powder and cumin in 1 TBSP vinegar til the vegetables
are limp (about 2 mins). (NB: I do use a nonstick pan for this step.)
Add tomato sauce and molasses, cook for 1 minute (scrape the stuck pieces
off the pan), taste and add more vinegar if needed (I usually add another
TBSP). Add mixture to lentils and cook until heated through.

Great over rice, or maybe as a burrito or taco filling (recommend using less
than 3c. water then, since this comes out very sauce-y).
