BBQ Peach Parcel
Great on the BBQ. Prepare these parcels in advance, pop on the BBQ when your main course is finished and the peaches will be ready in about 1/2 an hour.
Ingredients:-
• Six peaches, halved with the stones removed
• 4 Table spoons of Gran Marnier or other sweet liquor
• 4 Table spoons brown sugar
• 4 Table spoons raisins or sultanas
Directions:-
Heat the liquor and add the sugar. Stir until all the sugar is dissolved. Add the raisins and put aside for a while to allow the raisins soak up the sweet liquor.
Halve the peaches and remove the stones. Prepare squares of aluminium foil with one peach per piece of foil. Spoon the sweet raisin into the peach pit and close over the foil parcel - don't wrap too tightly as you want the peach to poach.
Pop on the BBQ for about 1/2 hour. Serve hot, delicious with ice-cream.

What is "Cream" Four?
Many irish baking recipes use "Cream" flour - this is unheard of outside Ireland and often leaves one heading straight for Google to find out exactly what type of flour it is.
Well Cream Flour is simply the name by which Odlums brand their plain flour - clever marketing by Odlums eh?
so "cream" = plain = general purpose flour.
