- Hey everybody, Bobby Deen here.
0:02
I'm fillin' in for my Mom, a little bit.
0:04
You know, it's hard to believe,
0:06
but we're really only about six weeks away from Christmas.
0:09
I just, where's the time go, I've no idea.
0:12
It seems like it was just the 4th of July, right?
0:15
We were just celebrating that.
0:16
But it is time to start making
0:18
all these delicious side dishes
0:20
and casseroles, and incorporated fruit,
0:23
and sugar, and butter and all these wonderful things
0:26
that we all enjoy so much at this time of the year.
0:29
I love Fall, and this is a very Fall,
0:32
I'm gonna call it a casserole,
0:34
but it's a really nice side dish.
0:36
So, for your Thanksgiving dinner or your Christmas dinner,
0:39
or for your next party, this is a great side dish,
0:42
a warm casserole that incorporates lots of different fruits
0:45
that you might not expect.
0:46
And also some curry, which is a little different.
0:49
So, it's really easy and let's blow through it, okay?
0:53
I've got a round casserole dish here,
0:56
and I'm gonna start by very simply
1:00
dumping in some canned peaches.
1:03
You know, we talk about this all the time,
1:04
and things are not always in season,
1:06
things are not always easy to find,
1:09
and I don't mind
1:12
using canned fruit,
1:13
or canned vegetables, or whatever,
1:16
you know, you gotta do from time to time.
1:19
So, what we've got here are peaches and apricots,
1:22
which are both nice.
1:24
We've got pineapple
1:26
and also pear.
1:29
- [Theresa] Yum.
1:30
These are wonderful, wonderful fruits
1:32
that I like all of these individually.
1:35
So together, they should really be fantastic.
1:39
And you want to mix it up a little bit.
1:41
So you've got, and my hands are clean.
1:43
They've been washed and I will wash them again.
1:48
But you want to sort of make it to where, you know,
1:51
you got your fruit, sort of,
1:52
you don't want one big clump of apricots over here.
1:55
And one big clump of peaches you want to sort
1:57
of get it all married together.
1:58
- [Theresa] Bobby, do the triplets like fruit?
2:02
- Our children love fruit.
2:03
Yeah, they do.
2:05
They in fact
2:06
our kids, yeah.
2:08
I've got one that won't eat really neat at all.
2:11
All she really wants is fruit.
2:13
So it's funny how three people can come from the same place
2:16
at the very same time and be so different.
2:19
And the child that I'm talking about that likes fruits.
2:21
I think our favorite fruit is tomatoes
2:23
and we've got a beautiful garden at home.
2:25
We're so fortunate and we've got cherry tomatoes
2:28
growing on the vine back there, not for much longer,
2:32
but she likes to walk through the garden and pick them
2:34
and just eat them right off the vine.
2:35
And that is a beautiful sight to behold for me.
2:39
Okay, so we've got the fruit in the casserole dish,
2:40
and now let's mix together some brown sugar.
2:46
- [Theresa] This is a quarter cup brown sugar
2:48
and a quarter cup of white sugar.
2:50
Thank you, Theresa.
2:51
- [Theresa] I'll help you out on this.
2:52
- Quarter cup of each.
2:54
And here is the unexpected.
2:57
The curry.
2:58
- [Theresa] I love the way this stuff smells.
3:00
- It does smell great.
3:01
- Now that's one and a half teaspoons,
3:04
but you can really kind of do it to,
3:06
you know, you can do it less or you can do more.
3:09
- And to that, we'll add some butter, melted butter.
3:14
- Now Bobby you know what-
3:15
- Looks like about a half stick.
3:17
- We need to put our cherries in, too.
3:18
We almost forgot our cherries.
3:19
- Uh, oh.
3:20
Sorry, cherries.
3:21
Not that you don't matter. - [Theresa] Look at that.
3:23
- You know you're important. - [Theresa] Look how pretty.
3:26
- That's okay, the cherries can sparkle right on top.
3:31
And you know what I'm gonna do?
3:32
(whispering) Pour in that little bit
3:33
of that cherry juice, okay?
3:34
- [Theresa] (whispering) You can never have enough juice.
3:36
- Waste not, want not.
3:37
And look, I'm just shaking.
3:39
I know I'm gonna have to use my hands.
3:43
We'll just get them down in there.
3:45
It looks very, very nice.
3:49
I'm just gonna mix these sugars and the butter
3:51
and the curry together.
3:54
And make a little bit of, you know,
3:56
when I look at this, I kind of think like a crumble.
3:59
You know what I mean? This is, or you know what?
4:03
My cousin Don, let me give him credit, used a good term.
4:06
When we were discussing this recipe, he said,
4:08
"It's really just sort of a baked fruit cocktail."
4:12
I think that's a good description too.
4:16
We gotta lotta good cooks in the family.
4:19
And my cousin, Don is one of 'em.
4:22
Our family tree is loaded with good cooks.
4:25
- [Theresa] I think cousin Don is gonna be in some videos
4:28
with your Mom.
4:29
- Oh, really?
4:30
What a treat for all of Mama's friends out there.
4:32
You're gonna love cousin Don.
4:34
He's an awesome guy.
4:36
I can only say one negative thing about him.
4:38
And that is that he graduated
4:39
from the University of Florida. (cackles)
4:44
And it just so happens that he's standing
4:46
right over there to hear that.
4:48
But I got to give you a "Go dog,"
4:50
especially this year because the University of Georgia
4:52
is so good.
4:53
- [Don] They are.
4:55
And the University of Florida is so bad.
4:57
I'm not, you know, whatever. Okay.
4:59
So let's see how we can sort of
5:04
try to evenly
5:07
spread our butter sugar.
5:11
- [Theresa] And there is also, Bobby,
5:14
a spatula either behind you or in the drawer.
5:16
- Yeah.
5:17
Let me try to just- - That might help.
5:18
- Use the spoon and just spread it around a little bit.
5:21
Let's just get it all in there first. Let's start there.
5:25
Everybody in the boat.
5:32
It is that time of year.
5:34
These are the type of things that we're all looking forward
5:38
to smelling in our mothers' or grandmothers' kitchens
5:42
and all the sorts of things
5:44
that bring back those great memories of our Thanksgivings
5:48
in Statesboro for me, or you know, down in Albany,
5:52
where we're from,
5:55
you know,
5:55
and there's just,
5:56
there's nothing like special memories.
6:00
And as you get older and as you begin to lose people,
6:05
you know, those memories become more and more special.
6:08
God rest my Daddy's soul. I lost him last year.
6:10
And whenever I'm making a good meal or eating a good meal,
6:14
I really think about my Dad and, you know, family and food.
6:19
These things go together.
6:21
And it's a beautiful tradition to uphold.
6:23
It's a good thing to, you know,
6:26
teach your children how to cook and enjoy good food
6:29
with your family at home.
6:31
We like to eat a lot of meals at home, we do.
6:34
My wife and I cook for our children all the time.
6:36
And it's just, you know, even-
6:40
- [Theresa] Watcha doin' now, Bobby?
6:41
- I'm adding some walnuts.
6:42
I'm talkin' is what I'm doin'.
6:43
- [Theresa] You mean some pecans.
6:44
- Pecans, I'm sorry.
6:45
Pee-can, pecan, walnut, whatever.
6:47
- [Theresa] But you could do-
6:47
- It's pecans, yeah, we're from Georgia.
6:49
These are good old Georgia pecans right here.
6:52
So, but we cook at home a lot for our family.
6:54
And I think,
6:56
that you should too.
6:58
So if you're not already doing that,
7:00
y'all get in the kitchen together and laugh
7:02
and talk and have a good time.
7:04
Okay, so I've got my oven pre-heated at 400 degrees
7:07
and I'm gonna bake this for about 20 or 25 minutes.
7:10
So we'll see you in about 20 or 25 minutes, okay?
7:14
Welcome back, everybody.
7:15
Our Curried Fruit Casserole has come out of the oven
7:18
and it just really looks great.
7:21
It's fantastic. - [Theresa] It's pretty.
7:23
- [Theresa] I love all the colors.
7:23
- It's really pretty.
7:24
Love all the colors.
7:26
The aroma is really, really nice.
7:28
And I'm excited about the curry
7:30
to see what that adds to the dish.
7:32
So I'm going to just take a page out of Mama's book.
7:37
I'm gonna spoon right out of the casserole dish here.
7:41
Just sort of put it back together
7:42
and make sure it doesn't look too tampered with.
7:47
Mm!
7:48
Mm!
7:49
- [Theresa] It's good. Isn't it?
7:50
- Mm!
7:51
- [Theresa] You're surprised. Aren't you?
7:52
- Oh, I am.
7:54
- [Theresa] My Mom used to make this for bridge parties.
7:59
- Don, that's wonderful.
8:02
The curry is really nice. It's right at the front.
8:05
You get it immediately when you taste the casserole,
8:08
but it is, it's soft.
8:10
I don't know if it's because it's been baked
8:12
and because it's in there sort of with the juices
8:14
from the fruit or not,
8:15
but the curry is soft and it's mellow
8:17
and it goes beautifully with the fruit
8:20
and the pecans are a nice touch on top.
8:22
This is excellent. Okay?
8:25
This is the first time I've ever made it.
8:26
That's the first time I've tasted.
8:28
I'm pleasantly surprised at how nice it is.
8:30
Please make this for your family and your friends
8:32
at your next holiday event or your next Christmas party
8:36
or Thanksgiving is coming up.
8:37
Man, y'all make this. That is excellent.
