C as Choux Pastry Religieuse

119.jpg


Preparation Time: 40
minutes, Cooking Time 30 minutes, Freezing Time: 1 hr. Serves
4-6. Phase PP



Ingredients

For
the Choux Pastry, a total of 12 6 large & 6 small

250ml water
50g protein powder
1 tbsp. Cornflour
2g of salt
3g
of Splenda Granulated Sweetener
2 large eggs




For the
Cream Filling
400ml skimmed milk
3 eggs
2 leaves of
Gelatine-softened for a few minutes in cold water
1 tbsp. Splenda
Granulated Sweetener
Coffee Essence




Preheat
the oven to 210 C / Gas 6 ½

THE
CHOUX PASTRY: Bring the water to the boil in a saucepan together
with the salt and Splenda. Combine the Cornflour with the protein
powder and pour into the boiling water. Stir constantly for 10
minutes without stopping. This is very important in order to cook
the pastry batter. Once the 10 minutes are up, transfer the batter
to a bowl and let it cool for 15 minutes.
Continue by adding the
eggs one at a time and mixing the batter well to incorporate.
Transfer the batter to a piping
bag and drop onto a baking sheet your large (about 1 ½ tbsp. of
batter) & small (about 1 tsp. of batter) Choux Pastry puffs.
To ensure an even rise in the oven and avoid cracking, rake the
top surface of each, with a fork dipped in egg yolk. Bake for 5
minutes in the hot oven before lowering the temperature down to
180 C / Gas 4 and baking a further 15 minutes with the door ajar
(1 cm) throughout. When done, leave to cool in the oven.



For the CREAN FILLING: Heat
the milk, coffee essence & Splenda in a saucepan. Once it is
nice and hot, gently pour the hot milk over the eggs, stirring as
you do. Transfer back to the saucepan and continue to cook the egg
mixture over a low heat, stirring constantly to avoid it burning &
allowing it to thicken. Once it has thickened, add the softened
gelatine leaves (squeeze out any excess water first), and stir
until fully dissolved. Pour the cream into a freezer bag, tie a
knot at the top to seal and freeze for 1 hr. When you remove it
from the freezer, cut a small corner of the bag where there is no
frozen cream to the size of one of your
piping nozzles. Untie the knot and slide
the nozzle in place.
Pipe the cream onto each of your Choux Pastry
& serve.
 
Loving the pictures lisa... does he give any clues as to which "protein powder" to buy, and where to get it from? Those choux pastries look a real faff, but mmm so delicious!

I've noticed "Splenda" mentioned - is this the sweetener he recommends for the UK, do you know?
 
Joanna, here is the info off the website for protein powder: Um, nothing. Sorry! Typed the intro then looked - can't find anything at all, not even in the Dukan Shop. Maybe have a look at a health food shop?

We have Splenda here in Australia, comes in tablets or powder form. Not available in the UK/EU?
 
oh god protein powder must find out after looking at that
 
In France the powder is available under the name of 'Protifar' - it's a medicinal supplement really and not licensed for general sale without prescription over here in the UK. Or something like that - I looked it up at the start because all the 'good' recipes (online, not in the book) seemed to use it, but it's not a realistic ingredient in the UK. Now I may be getting the licensing confused with Stevia, a sweetener, which really is not licensed for human consumption in all countries, but you can get in online in the UK.
 
Yes I've heard of Protifar (which most buy online in Belgium apparently cos it's cheaper - but still very dear). I wondered what "protein powder" is doing on the UK coaching site if it's not widely available in the UK! (As many foodstuffs are FAR cheaper over your way, despite what the Daily Mail tells you, I'd hoped to get myself a bargain!)
 
When I was doing Atkins I bought a box of protein powder - Boots - on the Complan shelf. It was made by Sanatogen.
