Recipe


Ingredients

  • 40mL milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 20g sugar
  • 7g dry yeast
  • 180g flour
  • 2g salt
  • 100g butter
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tea bags Dilmah Inspirational Italian Almond Tea
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 orange, segmented with a knife to remove all membrane
  • 1 ruby grapefruit, segmented with a knife to remove all membrane
  • 2 mint leaves, to serve

Method


  • Warm the milk. Add the eggs, sugar and yeast. Mix well and set aside.
  • Sift the flour and salt into the mixer and add the milk mixture. Work on slow speed with the paddle for 5 minutes. Melt the butter until soft and add to the dough. Mix well. Leave overnight in the fridge.
  • Weigh out 5g at a time and roll into balls. Place on a greased tray and leave for about 20 mins in a warm place. Bake at 165°C for 10 mins.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the Italian Almond Tea Sugar Syrup. Heat the water to a simmer, then turn off the heat and add the Almond Tea bags. Allow to steep for a few mins.
  • Remove the tea bags and bring the tea to a boil over high heat.
  • Stir in the sugar until it is completely dissolved. Reduce heat and stir until mixture has reduced by half, about 10 mins.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool slight. Pour over the bakes babas when they are cool.
  • To make the compote, segment the orange and grapefruit and catch all the juice in a bowl. Top up the juice with water until you have ¾ of a cup
  • Bring the juice, water, sugar and honey to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium and simmer for 10 mins, until thick and syrupy. Once the syrup has cooled, add the orange and grapefruit segments.
  • Serve the babas hot, drizzled in the tea syrup and served with fruit compote, mint leaves and cream, if you wish.
