Welcome to your newest go-to summer marinade, featuring some spicy sambal, brown sugar and coconut milk to balance out the heat, and lots of fresh ginger and lime juice. This one’s just as awesome with shrimp or flank or skirt steak as it is with chicken thighs.

Ingredients:

Method

1. Step 1

   Prepare a grill for medium heat. Finely grate ginger and garlic into a medium bowl. Add coconut milk, chili paste, lime juice, brown sugar, salt, and 2 Tbsp. oil and whisk to combine. Add chicken and toss to coat. Let sit at least 15 minutes or up to 4 hours.

   Step 2

   Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip back into bowl, and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Pour marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 2–3 minutes.

   Step 3

   Clean and generously oil grate of grill (if there are a few flare-ups while you do so, not to worry, they will burn off). Grill chicken, turning once and basting occasionally with marinade, until you see some good grill marks and chicken is cooked through, 8–10 minutes.

   Step 4

   Transfer chicken to a platter. Brush with remaining marinade. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges alongside.

Rosemary and Garlic Roasted Lamb with Homemade Gravy – A mouthwatering masterpiece of tender lamb, aromatic herbs, and rich, homemade gravy.

Ingredients:

• 1 large leg of lamb with or without bone (about 2.5kg)
• 2 bulbs of garlic
• a few sprigs of rosemary
• 100ml olive oil
• 1 tbsp flaky sea salt
• 3 onions, roughly chopped
• 5 carrots, sliced in half lengthways
• 500ml chicken stock – use gluten-free stock if required
• 2 tsp cornflour

Method

1. Begin by creating small openings all over the lamb. Take 10 garlic cloves, peel them, and then cut them in half. Insert these garlic pieces into the openings you made in the lamb. Take small sections of rosemary and place them into the remaining openings. Afterward, gently rub the lamb with a bit of olive oil and season it with sea salt.
2. Position the lamb on a wire rack inside a roasting tray and let it sit at room temperature for approximately 1 hour. This will help the lamb cook evenly.
3. Preheat your oven to 200°C (or 180°C with a fan, gas mark 6). Put the onions and carrots in the bottom of the roasting tray underneath the lamb on the rack. Add the remaining olive oil, unpeeled garlic cloves, and a few sprigs of rosemary. Place the lamb in the oven and roast for 15 minutes to achieve a nice browning. Afterward, lower the oven temperature to 180°C (or 160°C with a fan, gas mark 4). Continue roasting for approximately 1.5 hours, or adjust the time to your desired level of doneness. You can check for doneness by inserting a roasting fork into the center of the meat and lightly touching the fork to your upper lip or inner wrist. It should feel slightly warmer than your body temperature. For a well-done lamb, roast for around 2.5 hours. Once done, remove the lamb from the oven and allow it to rest for 10-15 minutes.
4. While the lamb is resting, prepare the gravy. Remove any excess fat from the roasting tray and place it on the stovetop. If the vegetables aren’t yet caramelized, sauté them until they reach the desired color. Add chicken stock, bring it to a simmer, and season to taste. In a separate bowl, mix cornflour with a bit of cold water, then whisk it into the gravy. Include any juices that have accumulated while the lamb was resting. Simmer for a few minutes, pressing the vegetables to extract their flavors. Strain the gravy through a sieve into a separate pan and keep it warm until you’re ready to serve.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 15-20 minutes Total Time: 25-30 minutes Servings: 4

Our T-Bone Steak and Black Pepper Butter recipe is a perfect fusion of juicy T-bone steak and luscious homemade black pepper butter, it’s a flavorful delight for your taste buds!

Prep Time: 15 Minutes  |  Cook Time: 20  Minutes  | Serves 2

• 1 T-bone steak (about 900g), at room temperature
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp salt

For the black pepper butter:

• 100g salted butter, softened
• 2 tsp cracked black pepper
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• A pinch of salt

For the charred veg:

• 1 red onion, quartered
• 1 white onion, quartered
• 3–4 spring onions
• 1 medium leek (white part only), split lengthways and halved
• 6 tender stem broccoli spears
• 1 lemon, cut in half
• 2 thyme sprigs
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Sprigs fresh rosemary

Method

Instructions:

1.  First, prepare the black pepper butter: mix the ingredients together in a small bowl until evenly combined, then spoon onto the middle of a sheet of foil or cling film and roll to form a cylinder, roughly the diameter of a £1 coin. Twist the ends of the foil or cling film to seal and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.
2. Meanwhile, for the charred veg, place all the onions in a large bowl with the leek, broccoli, lemon and thyme. Drizzle with the oil and season with a little salt and pepper.
3. When ready to cook, rub the T-bone steak with the oil and salt, then lay on the hot barbecue grid and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the steak over and cook for another 5 minutes using a pair of tongs.
4. Quickly place the onion wedges around the steak and cook, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes. Now lay the leek, spring onions, broccoli and lemon halves on the grid and scatter over the thyme sprigs. Cook until the veg are tender and charred on both sides, turning as necessary.
5. Once the steak is cooked, lift it off the barbecue onto a warmed platter. Cover the steak with an upturned bowl to keep it warm and leave to rest for 5–8 minutes. Meanwhile, unwrap the black pepper butter and slice it into discs, the thickness of a $1 coin.
6. Carve the steak on either side of the T-bone and place it on a warmed platter or board. Lay the butter discs on top of the steak. Serve with the barbecued veggies and the charred lemons for squeezing over them.

Juicy Rump Steak with a fiery Chilli Hollandaise, the perfect pair!

Prep Time: 15 Minutes  |  Cook Time: 20  Minutes  | Serves 2

Ingredients

For the Rump Steak:

• 2 rump steaks (about 250g each)
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary (optional)

For the Chilli Hollandaise Sauce:

• 2 large egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1-2 teaspoons hot sauce (adjust to taste)

Method

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chilli Hollandaise Sauce: a. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, water, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper. b. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler). Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. c. Continue to whisk the egg yolk mixture vigorously until it begins to thicken, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat if it gets too hot. d. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce thickens and becomes smooth. e. Stir in the hot sauce to your desired level of spiciness. Keep the hollandaise warm by placing it in a bowl over hot water while you prepare the steaks.
2. Prepare the Rump Steaks: a. Remove the rump steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking. b. Preheat your grill or a cast-iron skillet over high heat. You want it to be very hot. c. While the grill or skillet is heating, season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. d. Drizzle olive oil over the steaks and rub minced garlic on both sides. e. If using rosemary, place a sprig on each steak.
3. Cook the Rump Steaks: a. Place the seasoned rump steaks on the hot grill or skillet. For medium-rare, cook for about 3-4 minutes per side for steaks that are about 1 inch thick. Adjust the time for your preferred level of doneness. b. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, aim for 54-57°C. c. Once done, remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
4. Serve: a. Slice the rested rump steaks against the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices. b. Plate the sliced steaks and drizzle the prepared Chilli Hollandaise Sauce over the top. c. Garnish with extra cayenne pepper or fresh herbs if desired.

This celestial ham will be the winning centre-piece of your Christmas table. Sweetly spiced by the whole cloves. The deliciously sticky glaze contrasts beautifully with the salty meat.

Cook Time: 1 hour 25 Minutes |  Serves: 12

Ingredients

8 kilogram smoked leg of ham

1 cup (320g) redcurrant jelly

3/4 cup (240g) cranberry sauce

2 tablespoon lemon juice

1/3 cup (80ml) brandy

whole cloves, to decorate

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F.
2. Cut through the rind of the ham about 10cm (4 inches) from the shank end of the leg. To remove the rind, run your thumb around the edge of the rind, just under the skin. Start pulling the rind from the widest edge of the ham; continue to pull the rind carefully away from the fat up to the cut at the shank end. Remove rind completely. Using a sharp knife, score fat lightly at about 2.5cm (1-inch) intervals, cutting just through the surface of the fat. Score in the opposite direction to form a diamond pattern.
3. To make cranberry and redcurrant glaze, stir jelly, cranberry sauce, lemon juice and brandy in a small saucepan over low heat until combined.
4. Line large baking dish with baking paper; place ham on wire rack in dish. Brush ham all over with glaze; cover shank end with foil.
5. Bake ham 40 minutes; remove from oven, decorate with cloves. Return to oven; bake a further 40 minutes or until browned all over, brushing occasionally with glaze.
6. Cover ham; stand 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or cold.

Crispy potatoes served with sizzling garlic and yogurt dip are perfect as a side dish or a snack. They are easy to prepare, and you can make the yogurt dip in advance

Prep Time: 20 Minutes | Bake Time: 30 Minutes |  Serves: 2

Ingredients

500 g baby potatoes, washed and unpeeled
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp olive oil
your favourite herbs or spices (e.g. oregano, garlic powder, paprika), optional
pinch of salt

Yogurt dip:

1/2 bunch fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp chilli flakes
1/2 tsp salt
80 ml olive oil
300 g greek yogurt

Method

1. Wash potatoes under running water and scrub any dirt and sprouts. Transfer to a pot. Fill pot with cold water until potatoes are covered. Add 1 tbsp of salt and boil until potatoes are easily pierced through by fork (about 15 minutes).
2. While the potatoes cook, preheat the oven to 200⁰C.
3. When potatoes are done, drain them in a large colander and let cool for about 5 minutes. Evenly distribute potatoes on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Using drinking glass or potato masher gently smash each potato. Thin potatoes will be more crispy. Brush top of each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and your favourite herbs/spices. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and flip over each potato. Brush with olive oil again. Bake for additional 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy (25-30 minutes total).
4. While potatoes bake, prepare the dip. In a heat proof bowl or jar combine fresh parsley, garlic, salt and chilli flakes. Pour olive oil to a saucepan and heat over medium heat until hot. Make sure it does not get hot enough to smoke. Once hot, pour into container with herbs and let infuse for about 15 minutes. To plate, swirl greek yogurt on a plate and spoon over the garlic oil mix.
5. Serve hot potatoes with yogurt dip. Enjoy!
