Method

  1. Step 1:

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C, gas mark 4). Lightly grease and dust with flour a  1 x 12 shell madeleine tin.

  2. Step 2:

    Using either an electric mixer or mixing bowl and whisk, cream the butter, sugar, rose water and orange zest together for a few minutes until pale and fluffy.

  3. Step 3:

    Reduce the whisk speed and add the egg and milk.

  4. Step 4:

    Once combined, fold in the flour until well mixed.  When you are ready to bake, place a heaped tablespoon of batter into each madeleine shell and press a raspberry into the centre of each one.

  5. Step 5:

    Cook in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are a pale golden brown and springy to the touch.  Leave the madeleines to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack.

  6. Step 6:

    Meanwhile, make the rose water cream.  Whisk the double cream, icing sugar, orange zest and rose water until slightly thickened and store in the fridge until needed.

  7. Step 7:

    Once the madeleines are cool, dust with icing sugar.  Serve with a few fresh mint leaves and the rose water cream on the side.
