3 Ricette Per Cuocere Nei Tuoi Nuovi Contenitori Di Vetro Igluu

Con il recente lancio dei nostri contenitori di vetro, molti di voi stanno già godendo dei vantaggi della nuova gamma! Uno dei vantaggi più evidenti nell'utilizzo delle nostre varianti in vetro è la possibilità di utilizzarle direttamente nel forno. Pertanto, abbiamo pensato di cogliere l'occasione per offrirti tre ricette classiche che sfrutteranno i tuoi nuovi acquisti e forniranno un pasto o un dessert delizioso e facile da creare per la famiglia! Quindi, senza ulteriori indugi, diamoci da fare!

 

Crostata cremosa di pesce! Man mano che le torte vanno, questo è uno che può adattarsi al caldo clima estivo così come alle fredde giornate uggiose dell'inverno e dell'autunno. Questa versione contiene un po' di verdura, ma se senti il ​​bisogno di più puoi sempre abbinarla a un'insalata leggera, oppure sentiti libero di aggiungere più verdure alla cottura stessa (come piselli e spinaci).

Firstly, you should pre-heat your oven to around 180 degrees celsius. Mix your fish stock and milk in a large saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add your fish pieces, throw in the bay leaf, and continue to simmer for a further 5 minutes. Then remove the fish pieces and set aside, along with the liquid in the pot. Take another saucepan and melt the butter using a medium heat. Add your sliced leeks and cook for around five minutes, or at least until the leeks are nice and soft. Whilst still warm, add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon. Now it is time to pour the liquid used to poach the fish into the pan and continue stirring while increasing the heat, cooking for a further 5 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken. Then turn off the heat, remove the bat leaf, and add the fish, chopped parsley, and a little salt and pepper to taste.

For a touch of decadence you can add a handful of prawns or even scallops.

 

Pour the contents into your Igluu glass container and cover with mashed potato, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Place the container in the oven and cook for around half an hour, or until the sauce has started to bubble underneath the potatoes, and the cheese is starting to brown. Remove from the oven, and enjoy!

 

 

When it comes to desserts, apple crumble is hard to beat. Kids love it, adults love it, and you can eat it with lashings of custard or a dollop of ice cream! What is not to like? A summer staple in many countries, the humble apple crumble has been gracing our tables for many a summer now, and there are very few better dishes to test out your new Igluu glass containers with!

 

Heat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius ready for the baking stage. Place your diced apples, caster sugar and vanilla into a saucepan along with 1 ½ tbsp of water and gently cook until the apples have softened. Have a taste, and add more sugar if the taste is too ‘sharp’. Then transfer them to your greased Igluu glass container.

 

Meanwhile, place the flour, sugar and butter into a mixing bowl and work together until they resemble bread crumbs. Mix in the oats, and then pour over the apples. Sprinkle a little sugar on top, and bake in the oven until golden (which should be around 45 mins). Serve hot, with custard or ice cream. Delicious!

 

Cheesy pasta bake and a light summery salad. What could possibly be better on a warm and bright summer’s day? Well as it goes, a cheesy pasta bake with chicken and bacon may just be able to top that! Filling, tasty, easy to make, and a hit with most families, pasta bakes make great dinners or lunches and can be eaten cold the next day (if you are lucky enough to have any left over).

Start by preheating your oven to 190 degrees Celsius. While the oven is heating up, boil a pan of water and cook your pasta to a couple of minutes less than the packet tells you to (making sure it is still al dente), and then drain. Whilst the pasta is cooking, heat your oil on a medium heat in a frying pan, and cook your chicken chunks for around 5 minutes, so that the meat is ‘sealed’. Add your onions, and cook for a further 3 minutes until you notice that the onions are softening. Now add the chopped peppers, garlic, tomato puree, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for a further 3 minutes. Now stir in the tomatoes and cream while gently bringing to the boil. Add the pasta, spinach and cooked bacon, stir together and then pour into your glass container. Finish off by sprinkling the cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top and place in the oven for around half an hour, or at least until the top is golden. Serve with a sprig of parsley!
