Puree
6 oz Unsalted (sweet) butter
4 oz Castor sugar (v. fine grain)
8 oz Darkest plain chocolate
2 tb Brandy
Piped cream (optional)
Maron glace (optional)
Recommended to make 1 day ahead.
Melt Chocolate (this should be at least 55% cocoa –
75% is great!).
Put better in bowl. Beat until pale and creamy. Add
sugar and beat until fluffy andf light. Add chestnut
puree and beat until thoroughly blended and smooth. (a
mixer is so much easier!!! I didn’t have one and found
the best way to make sure it wasn’t lumpy was to press
the puree through a sieve first – interesting
texture!).
Add melted chocolate, brandy and 1 tb of water. Mix
thoroughly.
Brush a 2lb bread tin lightly with oil and line with
greaseproof paper and brush LIGHTLY with oil.
Put mixture into tin – flatten top and place lightly
oiled greaseproof paper on top. Cover tin with foil
and refigerate for at least 8 hours.
Serve straight from fridge optionally decorated with
piped cream and/or maron glace.
Note: This is a VERY rich desert; a 3/4 inch slice is
usually enough!

cooker (I also removed all references to olive oil).
CUBAN BLACK BEANS
2 cups black beans
5 cups water
Put cleaned, washed beans in a 4 to 6 qt. pressure cooker. Boil
beans for 2 minutes; turn heat off, cover beans and let sit for 1
hours.
Add the following ingredients:
1 or 2 bell peppers, chopped
l large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp pepper
salt or to taste
1 tsp oregano
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp sugar
Cook at 15 lbs pressure for 25 to 30 min. Open cooker when the
indicator has dropped down.
Remove about 1/2 to 1 cup of the beans and mash; return to pot and add
the following ingredients:
2 tbsp vinegar
2 tbsp red wine (cooking wine ok)
Bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 min.

700-800 grams moosemeat (leg)
3 Tbs. fresh thyme
2 Tsp. butter
salt
pepper
Sauce:
2 shallots
30 grams dried or 200 grams fresh forest mushrooms
4 Tbs. olive oil
0.4 litre red wine
0.8 litre stock
1 Tbs. parsley
1 Tbs. chives
40 grams butter
Part the meat into steaks – 180-200 grams each. Chop thyme, and
put on steaks with salt and pepper. Fry the steaks on both sides in
butter for 2-3 minutes. They should by now have a pink centre.
Let the steaks rest before serving.Sauce: Chop onions and fry in
olive oil with (coarsely chopped) mushrooms. Pour red wine over,
and let reduce until about 25% is left. Add stock and reduce until
about half is left. Whip in butter, and add salt and pepper to taste.
Chop parsley and chives, and add right before serving. Serve with
butter-steamed root vegetables. The rich red wine and mushroom
sauce should go perfectly with the moosemeat.
