Coconut Cream fried pies for August review dinner - Harborwitch - 08-05-2008 Coconut Cream Fried Pies Makes 12 pies Total time: 30 minutes + chilling HEAT 1 cup whole milk 1 cup coconut milk WHISK TOGETHER: 1/2 cup cream of coconut 1/4 cup cornstarch 1/4 t. kosher salt 2 eggs OFF HEAT, STIR IN. 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, toasted 2 T. unsalted butter 1/2 t. vanilla extract PREPARE, GARNISH FRIED PIES 1 recipe Fried Pie Dough, Page49 Melted chocolate Toasted shredded coconut Heat whole milk and coconut milk in a saucepan over medium until bubbles form around the edge. Remove pan from burner. Whisk cream of coconut, cornstarch, and salt together in a bowl. Add eggs, whisk until smooth, then gradually whisk in 1/2 of the hot milk. Pour the egg﷓milk mixture into the milk remaining in the pan and cook over medium heat until thick, whisking often. Boil filling for 1 minute to thicken and eliminate the starchy taste. Off heat, stir in coconut, butter, and vanilla. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming; chill filling until cold. Prepare pie dough, then fill and fry as on Page 50. Drizzle pies with chocolate and sprinkle with toasted coconut. FOR THE DOUGH GRIND, WHISK TOGETHER: 1/2 cup sliced almonds 2 1/2 cups all﷓purpose flour 1 T. sugar 1 t. table salt CUT IN, COMBINE AND BLEND. I stick unsalted butter, cold, cubed (8 T.) 2 T. vegetable shortening, cold, cubed 2/3 cup cold water 1 egg, beaten 1 t. white vinegar FRY IN: Vegetable oil Fried pie dough has to be sturdy enough to hold up in the hot oil, yet remain tender too. That's why you see some not﷓so﷓typical pie dough ingredients here, like an egg and ground almonds. They provide structure but won't make the dough tough like additional flour can. Grind almonds in a food processor until fine, then whisk together with flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter and shortening with a pastry blender until butter is pea size. Combine water, egg, and vinegar together in a measuring cup. Pour egg mixture into the dough, blending with a fork until it holds together. Divide dough in half, shape into 2 disks, and wrap each in plastic. Chill at least 30 minutes before rolling and filling Re: Coconut Cream fried pies for August review dinner - cjs - 08-05-2008 Dinner review - August 18th????
