a wanton night with a pie

[Guest guest]

This makes a nice after dish

Wanton pie

First ace the base:

Dates and almonds are best for the base, sunflower seeds are good too,

although other nuts and seeds can be added;

 

Topping/Filling:

Various fruits for the filling, with avocado (mash the avocado separate) and

banana being great staples for this. Also pear, apple, mango, cherimoya (if

you are lucky enough to have them available), and so on. some black cherries

go down well.

Fun with the Decoration:

Fruits that are ‘Sexy’ either sliced or whole to place on the surface

(kiwi, apple, orange, strawberry, grapes, raspberries, etc.)

Mince and mix the dates and almonds (preferably soaked in some sherry

beforehand) in either a hand mincer or a food processor; various other nuts and

seeds can be added, such as sunflower, hemp, walnuts, linseed, etc. This creates

a sticky base that is then pressed firmly into a dish (very lightly running

over the dish with avocado or cold pressed olive oil before will help when

trying to lift this sticky base out when serving it!).

Blend or mash the fruit filling but mash the avocado alone with a little

lemon juice and keep it separate. Finely ground linseed, mixed in, will help to

thicken up the filling (and will help bind the base too), but it is not

essential. Pour the fruit mix into the base first, then spread the mashed

avocado

layer on top of it. Slice the ‘sexy fruits finely and lay them on top of the

fruit filling to finish off; one or several carefully placed flowers will

also add to the ‘wow’ factor when its brought on to the table. You might

need to

keep a second one hidden away just in case your life's in danger for not

providing second helpings …!

why do birds fly south for the winter?

because its too far to walk...
