Slimming World 1/2 Syn Raspberry Roulade

Nothing better than having a pal over for tea and presenting a fabulous cake for you both to enjoy. Luckily this doesn't have to be a forgotten pre-Slimming World memory any more! This gorgeous Raspberry Roulade is the perfect tray bake replacement. Since the fruit is added after cooking, the overall recipe adds up to a mere 0.5 syns! Find the recipe and method below.

Ingredients:

  • 250g tub of any Quark
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 Tsp baking powder
  • 2-3 drops of vanilla essence.
  • 3 Tbsps of sweetener
  • A tray of raspberries (also works well with strawberries or any other syn free fruit)

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
  2. Separate the eggs into yolks into one bowl, and the yolks into another.
  3. Whisk together a half tub of quark with the yolks, baking powder, sweetener and vanilla essence.
  4. Whisk egg whites until they form soft peaks.
  5. Slowly add the whisked egg whites into the yolk mixture.
  6. Line a rectangular oven tray with baking paper and spray with plenty of frylight
  7. Carefully pour the mixture so that it lines the tray evenly.
  8. Cook for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to stand for 4-5 minutes.
  9. Peel baking paper from the cake and allow to cool fully. While this is cooling, mix the remainder of the quark with another drop of vanilla essence.
  10. Evenly spread the quark and fruit over the cooled cake.
  11. Gently roll up the cake into a roulade. Cut into slices as generous as you would like!

Curry Loaf

 
 

It's tricky to find cost-effective, filling and slimming world-friendly savoury foods. Slimming World curry loaf is one of those wonderful loopholes.  You'll find the main ingredient Chickpea Dahl in most well-known supermarkets for about £1 / €1.50 per tin. Syn values will vary for each, but here are some common ones:

Aldi Bilash Chickpea Dahl, 1.5 syns per 400g can
Asda Chosen by you Chickpea Dahl, 2 syns per 400g can
Tesco Chickpea Dahl, 1.5 syns per 400g can
Mazadar Chickpea Dahl, 400g Can, Free

The entire loaf made as below is 3.5 syns. Very handy for lunch or a snack, and will keep in the fridge for about 3 days. 

Ingredients:

  • A 400g tin of chickpea dahl (I used Aldi Bilash Vegetable Chickpea Dahl 1.5 syns per can)
  • 100g pack of curry rice (I used Erin Curry Rice for 2 syns a packet)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp curry powder

Method:

  1. Cook up the rice as directed, or until water has been absorbed.
  2. Whisk the eggs in a bowl
  3. Add rice and chickpea dahl to the eggs and mix everything
  4. Spray a loaf tin with Frylight and pour in the mixture
  5. Bake for 35-40 mins at 200 Degrees.

Tip:

For a Syn Free Curry Loaf, use the Mazadar Chickpea Dahl (available in Morrisons and Home Bargains) and Bachelors Curry Rice - both are free!
