Tyrolean apple fritters – original recipe from South Tyrol – Gordon Ramsay’s version

South Tyrolean apple fritters


how to make apple fritters

You can see the traditional recipe from Alto Adige by opening the YouTube video

The South Tyrolean apple fritters, Apfelkiachl, are very original and particular. If you want to surprise everyone and win over adults and children alike, prepare South Tyrolean apple fritters. They are juicy and crunchy because they are nothing more than apple slices cut as if they were donuts and then fried in batter. This means there is more apple than dough! So it becomes a great way to eat more fruit or create a dessert with fruit when apples are in season!

INGREDIENTS FOR TYPICAL SOUTH TYROL APPLE FRITTERS

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 apples
  • 40 g of sugar
  • the juice of one lemon
  • 130 g of flour
  • 8 g of yeast
  • powdered sugar
  • cinnamon (if you like)

We recommend buying rennet apples for this traditional South Tyrolean recipe as they are a little acidic and not too sweet. Alternatively, golden apple will be fine, trying not to overdo it too much with sugar. This is a very ancient recipe and comes down to us from the Middle Ages when apples were grown with extreme care in monasteries and by peasant culture.

Tyrolean apple fritters are called Apfelradl, Apfelkiachl or Apfelkiechl.

Sichuan pork and mushroom stew – Gordon Ramsay’s version

Sichuan pork and mushroom stew


One pork and mushroom stew tender and tasty, made even more special by the Sichuan pepper and the Chinese 5-spice mix.

The meat of this mushroom and pork stew, shoulder or loin, is marinated for 8 hours with a mixture of spices and sauces and cooked for 3 hours, over a very low heat. A recipe that requires preparation time and patience, but which will reward you in taste and aroma.

A unique dish that I can easily include in the list of my favorite autumn comfort foods. A recipe full of nuances and contrasts, consistencies, flavors and temperatures. That here you can find the beef version.

The 5 Chinese spices for my pork and mushroom stew

I wanted to use a mixture of spices typical of China and in particular of the Sichuan, or Szechuan, region in southwestern China, from which the famous pepper takes its name.

In reality it is a false pepper, obtained from red berries which, once ripe and dried, open, revealing a small internal seed. The flavor is slightly spicy and pungent, but above all citrus.

Sichuan pepper is one of the protagonists of the 5 spice mix, together with fennel seeds, which give an almost licorice aftertaste, a pinch of cinnamon, to make the mixture warmer and “rounder”, star anise and cloves, often used for marinating the tastiest meats.

My secret ingredient

To make this Cantonese pork stew even more special, I highlighted the presence of mushrooms in the broth too, using the Granular Bauer Porcini Mushroomsa natural and quality product, without added monosodium glutamate.
