Hello and welcome back to the first long form video in quite some time it does feel great to be back in the kitchen and I won’t lie after my last announcement video I did think that most of you might disappear but you are back you’re here and there
Are actually more of you than before as we recently hit 10,000 subscribers on YouTube which feels amazing and I’m so so thankful that you’re here with my brand new series a dream is a dish this is going to be my foodie Adventure across the Disney Universe creating
All of the food that you’ve seen across Marvel Star Wars Pixar and so much more I can’t wait to share all of these recipes with you so you can recreate a little bit of magic at home but
You know what they say new series is a great excuse for a new intro video so roll the VT Our first recipe for a dream is a dish comes from Marvel’s Loki season 2 in the episode conveniently named breaking Brad we see Loki and Mobius tucking in to slices of this luminous Green
Key Lime Pie it looks so cool in the show and the episode was named after me so I couldn’t wait to give it a go I shared a preview of this Loki Key Lime Pie as a YouTube short and loads of you love
The recipe but you wanted to see a longer form slowed down recips that you could follow along so it sounded like the perfect recipe to kick off a dream is a dish all of the ingredients
That you need be down below in the description and I’ll walk you through step by step on how to create your sweet shortcrost pastry your luminous lime green filling and then top it off with your whipped cream and yourcCandedi lime pieces first things first let’s make that base to begin make
The sweet short crust pastry by creaming together your butter and then adding in icing sugar mixing through until smooth crack in your egg and then beat together until well combined before adding in your flour and salt slowly mix together until it all comes together pour onto a work surface
And then bring together into a ball being careful not to overwork it wrap the pastry in some cling film and then chill in the fridge for an hour before rolling out to about half a cm thick lay
The pastry into your tart tin and then press the sides towards the edges to make sure you can see all of the grooves then you can use a rolling pin to clean the edges pierce the bottom with a fork
Before scrunching up some baking paper and placing it into the bottom fill this with baking beans and then bake for 15 minutes at 350° F to get a lovely crisp finish remove the baking beans and then bake
For another 15 minutes before allowing to cool pop into the freezer to prepare for our next step okay so small disclaimer before we go any further and some of you eat me up in the comments I am
Going to be using Jell-O for the filling in this recipe now I know the traditional key lime pie isn’t this green and definitely doesn’t include Jell-O however the aim of a dream as a dish is
To make screen accurate recipes and if you look at the slice from the show you can see from the cross-section that it is gelatin based so I’m going to add in some sweetened condensed milk which you would find in a traditional recipe to give it that semi-transparent look don’t blame me
Blame Loki to make your lime Jell-O filling you want to add the sachet into a jug and then pour in just enough hot water to help melt it down keep on stirring until all of it has dissolved and then
Pour in your sweetened condensed milk give this another good whisk and until it’s fully emulsified and then top off with some cold water this will help it set quicker as the mixture begins to cool
You might see it separate so give it another good whisk and then pour through a sieve to remove any bubbles once the Jell-O mixture has completely cooled you can then pour this into your frozen
Tart shell pop it back into the fridge for about 3 to 4 hours okay so that is most of the hard work done and I’m going to move on to the last step which is decorating our key lime pie now
For this I’m going to show you how to make your own candied lime pieces and and that’s going to take a little bit of time as we need them to cook in the sugar syrup to get that really shiny and
Crystallized effect for this recipe I am using green food coloring just to match the version that you see in the show but if you don’t want to use artificial food coloring you can try to find a natural alternative or just leave it out and use the natural green within the limes for the
Candied limes decorations you want to slice your limes in half and then cut into even segments to make your sugar syrup pour the water into a wide pan along with your green food coloring and whisk until it’s an even color add in your granulated sugar and then swirl it around until
All dissolved once that’s bubbling you can then add in your lime pieces turn the heat right down to a low simmer and then allow it to cook away for about 45 minutes once ready you can then
Remove them from the syrup and allow them to cool on a wire rack finally to make your cream all you need to do is whisk up some heavy cream with a little bit of icing sugar to taste until
It forms soft peaks transfer the mixture into a Piping Bag with a star nozzle and then it’s time to decorate remove the pie from the tart tin and then pipe generous swirls of your cream on
Top and place a candied lime piece into the center of each swirl of cream and then our Loki lime pie variant is ready to eat so there you go our first recipe from a dream is a dish is complete and we

I am just love your all video.
You are back! “Kisses all over face”! Great first recipe!! Miss the old intro, but on to the new! ❤❤❤❤❤
That looks amazing! I’ve always wanted to learn how to make those candies citrus slices.
I heard of Key Lime Pie but we don't have that here, so I wanted to make it myself one day. Perfect reminder for this! Looks so cool
So cool
Glad to see you back! Hope you've been well!
Key Lime Pie is meant to be made with what USA calls the "key lime" aka "west indian" or "mexican" limes. They're tiny, very tart, and much more flavoursome than the Persian limes available in UK.
But jelly + condensed milk…. ? No sorry, no.
This isn't the modern recipe but before anyone complains this was a 1950-60 recipe. Also key limes taste better but your pie will be great with regular limes because key limes are hard to get hard to juice , hard to get and expensive. Thanks for reminding me of a grandma recipe.
Yay 😊
First and last watch.
That was an abomination.
Looks so perfect omg I want to taste!
