Bake with Lucie - July
Lucie says, "Hello July! How are you all? I hope you are all very well and have been enjoying the lovely sunny weather? Did you enjoy last month's recipes and love making them too? I hope you did.
This month I have made three recipes that are three of my wonderful mum’s favourites and they are also very seasonal indeed. My first recipe is a summer leek, broad bean and runner bean risotto. It is so unbelievably good and oh so creamy. It is very seasonal with broad beans and runner beans at their best in July. Delicious!
My second recipe is one of my mum’s favourites, it’s a black cherry clafoutis that I serve warm dusted with icing sugar and served with clotted cream ice cream. Yummy!
My third recipe this month is again one of my mum’s favourites, it’s my caramelised peach and raspberry meringues with my homemade strawberry ice cream and a delicious homemade mango and passion fruit coulis. I use shop bought meringues as I find they tend to be more stable to fill than homemade ones but they are just as tasty! This recipe is so summery and perfect for any occasion.
I really hope you love all of these recipes and enjoy making them as much as I did! Have a lovely July! It’s my lovely mum's birthday in a few days so happy birthday mama! I hope you all have a wonderful July and enjoy the beautiful sun. See you all in August and have fun cooking!"
