  • 7-10 Tbsp Pepper
  • 1 TEASPOON Chicken broth
  • 300 ml Cider (French cider)
  • 7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash the meat and cut each fillet crosswise into 2-3 pieces. Wash the thyme, shake dry and put something aside for garnishing. Pluck the leaves from the rest. Wash the potatoes thoroughly, peel and halve them if necessary.

  2. 2

    Wash, quarter and core the apples. Wrap 1 slice of bacon around each.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil in a deep ovenproof pan (with lid). Brown the bacon apples in it all around. Remove. Sauté the meat in hot frying fat on each side. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Add potatoes and thyme leaves or spread everything on the fat pan of the oven. Season potatoes with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Stir pudding powder and 5-6 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Bring the rest of the milk and 100 g sugar to the boil. Remove from heat, stir in the pudding powder and bring to the boil again. Place in a bowl, cover surface with foil and allow to cool. In the meantime, roast the flaked almonds in a pan without fat until golden brown. Take out and let cool down. Separate the eggs. Stir 375 g butter and 375 g sugar for about 5 minutes until creamy. Stir in the egg yolks one by one. Mix flour and ground almonds and stir in alternately with the mineral water. Beat the egg white and 1 pinch of salt until stiff, stir in 2/3 and carefully fold in 1/3. Grease a springform pan and dust lightly with flour. Pour in 1/3 of the dough and smooth it down. Sprinkle with about 20 g roasted almonds. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 12-15 minutes. Remove and carefully remove from the tin immediately. Bake 2 more cake bases in the same way. Whip 125 g butter for about 5 minutes until creamy. Stir the pudding again and stir into the butter by the spoonful. Brush two cooled cake bases with the mixture and place on top of each other. Put the lid on and chill for about 2 hours. In the meantime, wash the fruit. Cut oranges and starfruit into slices. Decorate the cake with orange and carambola slices and physalis. Sprinkle the rest of the almond flakes on top and serve dusted with icing sugar
