Sunday roast ?

Question

I have visitors on sunday for roast, any suggestions for what to serve for pudding?
Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

trifle is always great or jelly & ice cream

Answer 2

Presuming your doing a full Sunday roast I would suggests something light and fresh… if I have friends round I make (a very easily but looks fab) summer pud.

Ingredients
8 oz (225 g) redcurrants
4 oz (110 g) blackcurrants
1 lb (450 g) raspberries
5 oz (150 g) caster sugar
7-8 medium slices white bread from a large loaf
You will also need a 1½ pint (850 ml) pudding basin, lightly buttered.

Separate the redcurrants and blackcurrants from their stalks by holding the tip of each stalk firmly between finger and thumb and sliding it between the prongs of a fork pushing the fork downwards, so pulling off the berries as it goes. Rinse all the fruits, picking out any raspberries that look at all musty.
Place the fruits with the sugar in a large saucepan over a medium heat and let them cook for about 3-5 minutes, only until the sugar has dissolved and the juices begin to run – don't overcook and so spoil the fresh flavour. Now remove the fruit from the heat, and line the pudding basin with the slices of bread, overlapping them and sealing well by pressing the edges together. Fill in any gaps with small pieces of bread, so that no juice can get through when you add the fruit.
Pour the fruit and juice in (except for about two thirds of a cupful), then cover the pudding with another slice of bread. Then place a small plate or saucer (one that will fit exactly inside the rim of the bowl) on top, and on top of that place a 3 lb or 4 lb (1.3 kg or 1.8 kg) weight, and leave in the fridge overnight.
Just before serving the pudding, turn it out on to a large serving dish and spoon the reserved juice all over, to soak any bits of bread that still look white.


However, you can pick one up from most supermarkets for £2.00… I serve it with a single cream or Greek yogurt.

Answer 3

I'd definitely suggest a strudel. They are usually only £1-2 and you can get either apple n cinnamon or mixed fruits flavours. They are a yummy pud made from puff pastry with a warm fruit filling. Perfect served with custard or ice cream. It really finishes off a roast nicely.
If you want to make it yourself i'd suggest buying ready made puff pastry then just soften whichever fruit you'd like to use then roll out your pastry into a large rectangle, place the fruit along the centre then roll! To finish you can either just use a knife to make some slits along the top or if you feel adventurous, use the left over pastry to make a lattice topping. Wash with egg or melted butter to get a nice golden brown colour.
Easy and delicious!

Answer 4

For a simple, quick, yet fancy looking dessert try brandy baskets (thin brandy biscuits that have been shaped into baskets - can be found in asda) with small scoops of ice cream in with fresh berries or fruit compote spooned over the top.

Answer 5

if you mean actual pudding, you can never go wrong with tapioca pudding. Maybe ole 'nanner pudding. nobody will holler much at any flavor of that kind of pudding.

if you are meaning what the English call pudding, I haven't the foggiest.

Answer 6

I reckon you should have apple and blackberry crumble with custard.

If you invited me, this is what I'd hope I would be getting!

Answer 7

Banoffee Pie!!!!

Answer 8

Strawberries and cream

Answer 9

Pavlova with fresh raspberries or strawberries, now they are in season again.

Answer 10

Chocolate fudge cake, everyone likes that!!
