Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Work 1/2 cupful of raisins and 1/2 cupful of chopped nut meats into half of the brioche mixture.
  2. Shape into balls about the size of a walnut, and then place close together in a buttered pan.
  3. Brush over the top with 1 tablespoonful of sugar dissolved in 2 tablespoonfuls of milk.
  4. Bake in a moderate oven for about 25 minutes.
  5. Brush a second time with the sugar-and-milk mixture and allow the buns to remain in the oven until they are well browned.
