Banana Bread

IIf you happen to have too many bananas that are too ripe to eat – make a banana bread! If you are like me and do not like a waste - here is one of my recipes using it! This banana and chocolate chip cake has a moist crumb and warming tones of cinnamon and mix spice. Perfect for a snack, with your packed lunch or breakfast. It is too easy not to make!

Makes 12-15 slices Prep time: 10 mins Bake time: 45 mins Ingredients: 265 g self-raising flour 100 g soft brown sugar 1 tsp mixed spice 1 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda 2 bananas, mashed (about 180 g of peeled weight) 2 eggs, beaten lightly 125 ml whole milk 85 ml vegetable oil 1 cup (250 ml capacity) of chocolate chip (I use 60% cocoa solids) 1. Preheat the oven to 170*C and line 10x20 cm baking tin with parchment paper. 2. Combine all the dry ingredients together. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Mix in the chocolate chips. 3. Put the batter in the tin and place in the centre of the oven. Bake for about 45-50 mins or until a skewer (cake tester) inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. 4. Leave to cool in the tin for about 5 mins and transfer to the wire rack. You can drizzle some melted chocolate on top. 5. Enjoy!

Homemade oat biscuits with warm orange flavour and addition of dark chocolate to compliment it more. Pecan nuts give a bit more crunch. Easy to make and even easier to eat, a perfect treat! Prep time: 10 mins bake time: 12-15 mins Makes about 24

Ingredients: 150 g self-raising flour 150 g porridge oats 100 g soft brown sugar 60 g pecan nuts, chopped pinch of salt 1 tsp cinnamon 150 g unsalted butter 2 Tbsp golden syrup 1 Tbsp orange juice 1 orange, zest 1/2 tsp orange extract 75 g dark chocolate (about 65%-75%) Method: 1. Preheat the oven to 175*C (350*F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. 2. Combine all the dry ingredients and orange zest in a bowl. 3. Melt the butter with the golden syrup. 4. Add the butter mixture to the dry ingredients along with orange juice and orange extract and mix well. 5. Shape the biscuits by picking about 1 Tbsp of dough and rolling it in your hands to shape a walnut-sized ball. Place on the prepared baking tray and flatten gently with the palm of your hand. Space the biscuits to allow to spread. Put in preheated oven and bake for about 12 mins (15 mins for more crunchy texture). 6. Leave to cool slightly on the baking tray and then transfer to a cooling rack. 7. When completely cold, melt the chocolate in bain-marie and drizzle over the biscuits. Allow to set.

March 2015 RABBI PETE REMEMBERS…

…those crazy Purim days

RABBI PETE REMEMBERS… So many KTers, so little space

As I’m attempting to write this edition’s “Editor’s Word” the only thing I can think to write about is the leaving of Rabbi Pete, which is probably in everyone’s thoughts. I’m not going to comment on all his achievements, that has been done in his potted biography. Instead I shall comment on the man. I first met Pete approximately 35 years ago when as a student rabbi involved at Northwood and Pinner Progressive Synagogue, he was allocated to our new offshoot community “South Bucks Liberal Community “operating first from a church hall and then Dr Challoner’s Boys School. It was all very exciting and new and Pete was the perfect person for us with his innovative ideas. We were a small group and Pete gave us motivation and guidance and it was also fun. I can only speak from my children’s attitude towards Judaism, they were happy at Religion School and learnt as well as having fun and have never forgotten him. Move on 35 years, recently arrived back in Radlett after 16 years living in Spain, still a member of NPLS I’m thinking where shall I go and then I hear Pete is in Elstree just down the road – great – problem solved. We meet up and then he drops his bombshell he’s off to America but I decide I’ll make the change anyway. Who was to know what was about to descend on us – COVID. Pete’s move was on hold temporary. What has struck me most during this period when all our lives changed dramatically and

These 6.30pm slots have been stimulating, comforting and amusing and have held the community together and helped those not able to get out and see loved ones and friends to cope. Pete will be missed by the community and all those who worked with him closely but he leaves behind a legacy that will not be forgotten. Thank you Pete and we all wish you every happiness and fulfilment in your new rabbinic role, and joy and love with your family particularly watching the grandchildren as they grow. I hope you will miss us as much as you miss WatfordFC – only joking but we will miss you.
