Are we preparing a dinner for friends and want to present our croutons or pickled eggs in a different way? Or do we want a last-minute decoration for the cake? We don’t have any decorations at home and we don’t want to overdo it. Something simple but also effective. Here is the Coral.

INGREDIENTS

8 g =half tbsp. flour 00 / plain /all purpose flour

50 ml =3.38 tablespoons seed oil

45 ml = 3 tbsp.water

For the color:

1 tsp.red natural dyes powder,in this case red

1 tbsp. water

PREPARATION

  • Emulsify with an electric whisk,  seed oil, water and flour , and to color, add natural dyes powder and, and extra tablespoon of water.
  • Heat a non-stick pan, when it is hot, pour a little emulsion  and cook until it stops “frying”.
  • Beware of splashes: water and oil produce plenty of them!
  • Gently lift the coral, with the help of a knife and place it on absorbent paper.
  • Repeat the operation. With these doses, you get  6 corals of 20 cm=ca. 7 inch, or a dozen smaller ones
