In this week's Friday episode, Patrick and Stuart use their new tiller to take the first steps to reinstate the chateau vegetable garden (potager). They will be planting vegetables using both "dig" and "no dig" methods. Stuart also begins making the sponge cakes for the upcoming coronation party that is being hosted by friends Tony and Jane @notquiteachateaudiy .
Here is the cake recipe that Stuart uses for the coronation cakes:
---------------------
Sponge cake recipe:
225 g (8 oz) softened butter
225 g (8 oz) castor (granulated) sugar
275 g (10 oz) flour 2 teaspoons baking powder
4 large eggs
4 tablespoons milk
1. Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan. Grease a 30 x 23 cm (12 x 9 in.) traybake or roasting tin. Line the base with baking parchment.
2. Measure all the ingredients into a large bowl and beat until blended. Turn the mixture into the prepared tin and level.
3. Bake in the pre-heated oven for around 35-40 minutes or until the cake has shrunk from the sides of the tin and springs back to touch. Leave to cool in tin and then turn onto a cooling rack.
--------------------
Join Patrick and Stuart on their journey to find a neglected, forgotten, or crumbling château or castle in France, and then continue to follow them as they work on its restoration, rénovation, decoration, and furnishing. Along the way, they will also create and share videos on their preparation for having gîtes for guests, and an event venue in their chateau (wedding, birthday, anniversary, organization or club meetings, retreats, etc.).
