Adam Handling's Strawberry and Ginger Trifle

The official desert of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee was a trifle and it was hugely popular, and this trifle recipe looks like it will go down just as well!

There are lots of steps to work through but you can probably cheat a little bit with using a bought jelly and ready-made candied pistachios!

Martha Collinson's Coronation Crown Scones

Martha's Coronation Crown scones are a cute royal twist on the perrienial British favourite - scones!

All you have to do is decide which goes first, the jam or the cream. I'm staying out of that argument and they will be just as delicious whatever you prefer!

As well as these fabulous celebrity recipies for the coronation, King Charles has also released a recipe for an official Coronation Quiche, which is intended to be made to eat on Sunday 7th May for the Coronation Big Lunch, when we are encouraged to get together with our friends and family for food, friendship and fun!

The Coronation Quiche is a vegetarian deep quiche with a crisp, light pastry case with the delicate flavours of Spinach, Broad Beans and fresh Tarragon.

Delicious eaten hot or cold with a green salad and boiled new potatoes, it reflects the new King's love of nature and could be made with ingredients which are all grown in the UK.

You will need:

x1 20cm Flan Tin

Serves 6

Ingredients

Pastry

125g plain flour
Pinch of salt
25g cold butter, diced
25g lard
2 tablespoons milk
Or 1 x 250g block of ready-made shortcrust pastry

Filling

125ml milk
175ml double cream
2 medium eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon,
Salt and pepper
100g grated cheddar cheese,
180g cooked spinach, lightly chopped
60g cooked broad beans or soya beans

Method

To make the pastry…
1. Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl; add the fats and rub the mixture together using your finger tips until you get a sandy, breadcrumb like texture.
2. Add the milk a little at a time and bring the ingredients together into a dough.
3. Cover and allow to rest in the fridge for 30-45 minutes
Lightly flour the work surface and roll out the pastry to a circle a little larger than the top of the tin and approximately 5mm thick.
Line the tin with the pastry, taking care not to have any holes or the mixture could leak. Cover and rest for a further 30 minutes in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Line the pastry case with greaseproof paper, add baking beans and bake blind for 15 minutes, before removing the greaseproof paper and baking beans.
Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C.
Beat together the milk, cream, eggs, herbs and seasoning.
Scatter 1/2 of the grated cheese in the blind-baked base, top with the chopped spinach and beans and herbs, then pour over the liquid mixture.
If required gently give the mixture a delicate stir to ensure the filling is evenly dispersed but be careful not to damage the pastry case.
Sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Place into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until set and lightly golden.
