Carrot and thyme roulade with onion and garlic cream

Served hot or cold, these make a good starter or light lunch served with salad.

What you need

for the roulade
50 g butter
450 g carrots, peeled and finely grated
4 eggs, separated
3 tsp chopped fresh thyme
seasoning
for the filling
25 g butter
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
175 g cream cheese
3 tsp chopped fresh thyme

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C.

  2. Melt the butter in a pan. Add the carrots. Cook gently, stirring frequently, for 5 min or until slightly coloured. Transfer to a bowl. Allow to cool.

  3. Add the egg yolks and thyme to the carrots. Beat well. Season to taste.

  4. Whisk the egg whites in a clean bowl until firm peaks form. Stir 2 tablespoons into the carrot mixture to lighten it. Carefully fold in the rest of the egg whites.

  5. Spread the mixture onto a lightly greased and lined 30 cm x 20cm (12in x 8in) Swiss roll tin. Cook in the oven for 10-15 min until risen and firm to the touch.

  6. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Melt the butter in a pan. Fry the onion and garlic for 2-3 min until soft. Place the cheese in a bowl. Stir in the onion, garlic and thyme until well mixed.

  7. Turn the cooked roulade out onto a large sheet of non-stick baking parchment. Carefully peel off the lining paper. (If serving hot, then proceed to next step without waiting for roulade to cool.) Cover with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to cool.

  8. Remove cloth and carefully spread with the cheese filling, leaving a 1 1/4 cm (1/2 in) border all round. Carefully roll up, using the paper to help. Cut into slices to serve.
