Papaya And Raisin Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Slice papayas in half lengthwise. Scoop out black seeds and discard. Peel and discard skin. Place flesh in a bowl and mash. Transfer to a strainer and allow to sit for 10 minutes to drain any liquid.
• Combine flour, poppy seeds, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Cream sugar and butter together in a separate bowl. Mix in eggs, one at a time, until well blended. Mix in papaya flesh, buttermilk, guava juice, and vanilla. Slowly stir in dry ingredients until just moistened. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then release loaf from the pan onto a wire rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes, before slicing.

Steps:

• Drain papaya very well on paper towels.
• Cream butter in a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed.
• Gradually add sugar, beating well.
• Add eggs, one at a time; beat well after each addition.
• In another bowl, mix together the flour, and next 6 ingredients; add to creamed mixture, stirring well.
• Stir in papaya, raisins, and chopped walnuts.
• Spoon batter into a greased and floured 8 1/2x 4 1/2 inch loafpan.
• Bake in a 350° oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes OR until done.
• Let cool in pan for 10 minutes; remove bread from pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
• In large bowl measure flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon, and raisins. Stir thoroughly. Make a well in center.
• In small bowl beat egg until frothy. Mix in melted butter and milk. Pour into well. Stir just enough to moisten. Scrape into greased 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
• Bake in 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 1 hour. Serve plain or toasted with butter.

Steps:

• Combine all of the dry ingredients. Beat eggs with oil and add to flour mixture. Add papaya or mangoes, lemon and raisins. Pour into 2 greased 8 x 4 loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F (325 degrees F for glass pans) for about 60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Steps:

• Mix raisins with rum and set aside. Let stand for at least 30 minutes to soak raisins with rum.
• Put papaya fruit flesh, sour cream, garlic, chili pepper and lemon juice in food processor and mix until smooth for about 10 to 20 seconds.
• Remove raisins from rum and add to papaya mixture. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the rum and coriander. Mix with a spoon. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Set sauce aside. You can prepare sauce in advance.
• Cut fish fillet into cubes and mix with lemon juice and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Remove crust from toast bread. Roll out every barked toast bread slice very thinly using a rolling pin.
• Brush the margins of the slices with egg white. Place the fish on three of these slices. Use also the fluid.
• Cover the three slices with the remaining three to build the cushions. Press the edges of the slices to close the cushions. Use a knife to remove "excess" of bread.
• Mix egg yolk with milk and add a pinch of salt.
• Brush the cushions very lightly on both sides with egg yolk mixture (but remain about the half for later use).
• Preheat broiler of your oven.
• Heat up olive oil in a pan. Fry the cushions in oil when hot on both sides for about 2-3 minutes until golden. Remove cushions from pan.
• Brush cushions with the remaining egg yolk mixture on top side and sprinkle with coconut flakes. Sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar on each cushion.
• Broil the cushions in the oven until coconut flakes are golden for about 1-2 minutes.
• Serve the fish cushions hot with the papaya-raisin-sauce.
• NOTE on fish: if you can't get King Fish or Mackerel, you can use other firm fish fillet. I have also tried tilapia.
• NOTE on chili pepper: if you like it hot you can use more, if you like it mild use less or a mild type chili pepper. I have used a mild one here.
• NOTE on serving: as an appetizer this will make 3 servings. As a main dish it will make 1 serving. As a main dish serve it with rice or a green salad.
• Time to make does not include time to soak the raisins.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees . In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, soda, salt and sugar. Mix well.
• 2. In a small bowl, add the eggs, and oil and mix well, then slowly add to the flour mixture.
• 3. Next add the papaya, lemon and macadamia nuts, mixing lightly. Pour the bread batter into a greased 8 x 4 loaf pan and top with the shredded coconut.
• 4. Bake at 350 degrees F for 50 - 60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 - 15 minutes before removing from pan.
