Natillas!!!!!! Yum! :p Anybody have a good recipe, or know where I could find one?

Chica, is arroz con leche a bit like the British "rice pudding", which is basically rice with cream, baked in an oven?
I had flan EVERY day whilst in madrid! I became addicted!

Fernando is right! Bunuelos are the best, by the way, last year he posted the recipe on one of the threads here! When I find it I'll add it to this post.

Have a little copita de Jerez with a couple of bunuelos and you'd think you are in heaven!

p.s. Bunuelo has an ~ but my laptop won't let me make the ~! Stupid machine!

without a doubt....leche frita!! :p :p

I will never forget the day my darling husband ordered "postre de la casa" just thinking it was the specialty of the chef. To his surprise, it was an ENORMOUS selection of all of the menu's desserts. It was amazing! Needless to say, that was the Best and most memorable dessert we ever shared in Spain.
O, BTW ...we finished it! ( remember to always leave room for dessert! )

Fernando- Can you give me your recipe for buñuelos
*Marisa*

MMM!!!! Fresas con nata ...YUM! Whenever I have that, I think of going to Casa Botin on calle Cuchilleros,an under-ground restaurant in Madrid, where la Tuna came...that was fun !

MM: it is the intention what counts

Pim, I also thought they were hard to make but at the end I was able to cook them with, I must say, a good degree of success hehehe

Here is the recipe for all of you:

a bit of salt
50 grams of butter
30 grams of sugar
4 eggs
125 grams of flour
200 mililiters of water

It is more easy that it seems Just put all the ingredients in a casserole and make it boil until you have an homogeneous mix.

Then you must put a sauce-pan with a lot of oil (olive oil is the best of course). You must take a little spoon of the mix and put it in the oil (which must be very very hot). Let it frying until it has four times its original size.

When you have the buñuelos fried, fill them with cream, milk fat (nata montada), marmalade, chocolate or whatever you like

Finally throw some sugar over the filled buñuelos and... eat them until there are no more!

Fernando
(Who can no longer eat anything because today has eaten too much buñuelos hehehe)

ok, not really a dessert, but love them anyway! Churros! (like I said, not dessert, but something sweet! ) And NOBODY makes them like my mom!

Espe3...I LOVE Tarta de Santiago as well! That's my favorite cake type dessert!! I also love the white chocolate covered Palmeras! Mazepan...oh...I must make a trip to the kitchen. I've got to stay away from this thread. :o
