NO-BAKE COCONUT CREAM PIE WITH STRAWBERRIES AND PINEAPPLE



No-Bake Coconut Cream Pie with Strawberries and Pineapple image

When I was researching pie recipes for my upcoming cookbook, I asked my social media followers if they had any regional specialties I may not have heard of. I received five requests for a pie with a coconut custard, pineapple topping, toasted macadamia nuts and fresh strawberries. I'd never had the combination before, but it's a match made in summery pie heaven -- and made even better with a hefty dollop of whipped cream atop each slice.

Provided by Erin Jeanne McDowell

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 23

45 vanilla wafer cookies
1 cup toasted macadamia nuts
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
20 ounces crushed pineapple in juice
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/2 cups toasted macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
2 cups quartered strawberries
1 tablespoon honey
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • For the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the wafer cookies, macadamia nuts, granulated sugar and salt together until the mixture forms fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is evenly combined.
  • Press the crust into a 9-inch pie plate and transfer to the freezer until firm (at least 1 hour and up to overnight).
  • For the filling: In a medium pot, heat the coconut milk and whole milk together over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg and egg yolk to combine. When the milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour about 1/4 of it into the sugar/egg mixture, whisking constantly.
  • Return this mixture to the pot and continue to cook over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens and large bubbles pop up from the center of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla and shredded coconut. Pour the mixture into the frozen pie crust, cover directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate to cool completely.
  • For the toppings: In a medium pot, stir together the crushed pineapple, light brown sugar, cornstarch and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Cool completely, then pour on top of the chilled pie. Sprinkle the macadamia nuts in an even layer on top of the pie. (The pie can be made up to this point 24 hours ahead of time.)
  • When ready to serve, toss the strawberries and honey together in a medium bowl. Arrange in an even layer on top of the pie. Serve slices with whipped cream.

COCONUT FISH AND TOMATO BAKE



Coconut Fish and Tomato Bake image

A coconut-milk dressing infused with garlic, ginger, turmeric and lime coats fish fillets in this sheet-pan dinner. Accompanying the fish are bright bursts of tomatoes which turn jammy under the broiler and relinquish some of their juices to the pan sauce. This sauce is silky enough to coat a spoon and packed with flavor. It pairs well with anything from snapper to flounder and even salmon, so choose the fillets that look best at the market. You'll want to sop up the sauce with thick slices of grilled or toasted baguette, or spoon it over steamed rice.

Provided by Yewande Komolafe

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, scrubbed and finely grated
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 tablespoon honey
Kosher salt
2 limes
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
4 (6-ounce) fish fillets, such as snapper, haddock, striped bass, fluke, sablefish or salmon, skin on or off
2 pints cherry or grape tomatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, ginger, garlic, turmeric, red-pepper flakes, honey and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Zest and juice 1 lime directly into the coconut milk mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Add the fish fillets and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, adjust an oven rack to the lower-middle position. Arrange another rack in the position closest to the broiler heat source. Heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Place the tomatoes on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Place the marinated fish between the tomatoes and spoon all the marinade from the bowl over the fish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil over the fish. Transfer the pan to the lower-middle rack and roast until the surface of the fish is opaque but the center is not cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness of the fish. The fish should not flake easily with a fork. Remove the pan from the oven and heat the broiler to high.
  • Move the pan to the broiler and finish cooking, rotating the pan once, until the fish is tender and the tomatoes are just beginning to brown in spots, 5 to 6 minutes, depending on thickness of the fish. Slice the remaining lime into wedges.
  • Divide the tomatoes and fish among dishes and tip the pan juices over the fish. Garnish with the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro and serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
