Je suis vraiment desolee de n'avoir pas publie en ligne une recette depuis quelques semaines. Alors, maintenant, un dessert delicieux pour vous de "Cuisine Au Lit" (ou "Cuisine Holly") - une charlotte aux mandarines.

I'm sorry not to have posted a recipe for a few weeks. So, now a delicious dessert for you from "Cuisine Au Lit" (or "Cuisine Holly") – a mandarin orange charlotte.


Ingredients:
1 litre tin of mandarin oranges in syrup
1,5 litres of fromage blanc
35-40 sponge finger (“ladyfinger”) biscuits
This will serve 6-8 people.

Equipment:
Tin opener
Milk pan or other very small saucepan
Clingfilm
Tablespoon
Plate (diameter wider than the top of the saucepan)
Refrigerator

To serve:
Large plate
Sharp knife
Kitchen paper


Method:

1. Line the small saucepan with clingfilm

2. Place the sponge fingers, standing upright, around the sides of the pan, with the sugar coated sides of the biscuits facing outwards (touching the clingfilm)

3. Cover the bottom of the pan with sponge fingers – you will need to cut them

4. Add 1 third of the fromage blanc, then 1 third of the mandarins in a layer and drizzle one tablespoon of the mandarin syrup over the top

5. Add a horizontal layer of sponge fingers on top

6. Make another layer of fromage blanc, mandarins and mandarin syrup, then sponge fingers, then fromage blanc, mandarins and mandarin syrup, then sponge fingers

7. Drizzle two tablespoons of the mandarin syrup onto the sponge fingers lining the edge of the pan

8. Cover the top of the pan with clingfilm, then place a plate on top, pressing down lightly on the charlotte

9. Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 10 hours or, preferably, overnight

10. To serve the charlotte, remove the pan from the refrigerator, remove the plate and clingfilm on top of the pan, hold the serving plate, upside down, securely over the top of the pan and up-end the whole thing. Lift off the pan and carefully remove the clingfilm. If any liquid has not been absorbed by the sponge fingers, soak it up with kitchen paper before serving. Use a sharp knife to cut the charlotte like a cake.
