A mere trifle

Waste not want not.....

The last of the finger shaped Easter cakes had become too dry to eat but they put me in mind of trifle sponges so, voila.



Recipe:


8 Koulourakia biscuits 
Finely grated rind of 1 orange
Two peeled oranges cut to remove pith, sliced and segmented - catch all the juice in the process
I shot glass of Metaxa
1 pack of instant custard (from English shop or carried in luggage as an essential)
I box of cookling cream from Lidl
6 Strawberries


Method:
  1. Halve Koulourakia  and line a dish
  2. Mix orange rind, juice and pieces with Metaxa and pour over Koulourakia 
  3. Make custard as per directions then pour over fruit.
  4. Pour cream over once custard is cool
  5. Decorate with strawberries and put in fridge to "set"
Serve with a flourish and accept praise and wonder from husband!
