BBQ prawns with nam jim dressing

$
0
0

This dish is great for a summer barbecue under the stars, and the nam jim dressing gives it a distinctly Asian fl avour. Galangal comes from the same family as ginger, and has a similar but stronger fl avour. It is available from Asian grocers and specialty stores.

Method

  1. For the nam jim dressing, combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth then set aside.
  2. Combine the cucumber, fennel, fennel fronds, spring onion and chilli in a bowl, then add the herbs and toss together gently.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the prawns with the vegetable oil to coat then season with salt and pepper.
  4. Preheat the barbecue to its hottest setting or a chargrill plate over high heat. Grill the prawns for 3 minutes or until just cooked through, turning once. Remove from the heat, transfer to a large platter and season with pepper.
  5. Divide the salad among individual bowls and place on the table. Serve the prawns with lime halves to squeeze over, and the nam jim dressing on the side.
Matt Moran
Serves 4 as a starter or light meal

½ large cucumber, thinly sliced

½ bulb fennel, trimmed and thinly sliced, fronds reserved

1 spring onion, trimmed and thinly sliced

½ large red chilli, very fi nely sliced lengthways

small handful mint leaves

small handful coriander leaves

12 large raw king prawns, peeled and deveined, with tails intact

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

salt and pepper

lime halves, to garnish

NAM JIM DRESSING

1 clove garlic, chopped

½ bunch coriander, leaves picked and chopped

1 large green chilli, seeded and chopped

4 teaspoons chopped galangal

2 tablespoons shaved palm sugar

2 tablespoons fish sauce

2 tablespoons lime juice

2/3 cup (160 ml) vegetable oil

Saffron prawn risotto

$
0
0

This is one of my all-time-favourite risotto recipes. The grains of rice look like golden jewels on the plate and the flavour is complex and ambrosial. For the best results, use the highest grade superfino arborio rice and the freshest prawns; make a decent fish stock, and cook with the wine you would choose to drink with the dish, not Chateau Cardboard! Like any risotto, this must be eaten as soon as it is made – it cannot be cooked ahead of time and reheated with any success. Have everything ready and allow yourself 20 minutes or so to stand and stir the rice as you add the stock.

Method

  1. Bring the stock to a boil in a saucepan, then reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
  2. Heat a wide, heavy-based pan and add the oil, then sauté the onion, garlic and chilli over moderate heat until soft and golden. Stir in the tomato. Add the rice and cook for a minute or two, stirring constantly, until the rice is coated with oil. Pour in the wine, then, when it has been absorbed, stir in the saffron. Start to add the simmering fish stock, 100 ml at a time, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Allow the rice to absorb the stock before adding more. With each addition, the rice will steam and swell to absorb the liquid. As it cooks, the rice should become creamy and the grains remain intact and separate.
  3. About 3 minutes from the end of cooking, add the prawn meat and basil leaves with the last 100 ml stock, stirring constantly. Cook until the prawns are translucent, then stir in the butter and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Christine Manfield
Serves 6

900 ml Fish Stock

100 ml olive oil

2 tablespoons minced brown onion

2 teaspoons minced garlic

2 red bird’s-eye chillies, minced

3 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced

350 g Arborio rice, rinsed

150 ml semillon or other dry white wine

1 teaspoon saffron threads

18 raw king prawns, peeled and deveined but with tails left intact

20 basil leaves, torn

75 g unsalted butter, diced

1½ teaspoons sea salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

One-pan macadamia and chocolate chip brownies

$
0
0

A tin of this classic brownie is sitting cooling as I write this, and I can almost feel its fragrant chocolate tendrils weaving their way under my nose, luring me out to the kitchen to try a piece. However, I’m using all my willpower to hold off for a bit, because I know that, good as it will taste now, it will be even better once it’s cooled and the flavours have had a chance to meld together. It’s a truly delicious brownie which looks very dense but has an astonishingly light, melt-in-the-mouth texture that is beautifully offset by the crisp chunks of macadamia and solid nuggets of dark chocolate.

 Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C. Butter a 23 cm square cake tin and line it tightly with foil (I find the extra-wide foil is best for this), making sure to push it right down into the corners. Butter the foil lightly, then line the base with baking paper. Set aside.
  2. Put the butter and chocolate into a medium-sized heavy-based saucepan over very low heat. Melt them gently, stirring from time to time. Take the pan off the heat when the butter has nearly melted and give it a good stir so the mixture is smooth and shiny. Set it aside to cool for 8 minutes.
  3. Add the sugar and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture and use a balloon whisk to mix them well for 20 seconds or so. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each one is added so it is completely incorporated before you add the next. Just so you know, the mixture may look a bit odd and lumpy after the first couple of eggs are added, however, it thickens and smoothes out after you mix in the last two.
  4. Tip in the flour and stir until it’s well combined (once the flour is in, don’t overdo the mixing or the brownie will toughen as it cooks). Gently fold in the macadamias and chocolate buttons. Scrape the batter into the prepared tin and shake it gently to level the top.
  5. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted in the middle of the brownie comes out with very moist, but not wet, crumbs clinging to it. Another good indicator that it’s ready is to rest the palm of your hand lightly on the surface and gently jiggle the brownie from side to side – it should feel set but still be a little wobbly, a bit like a jelly.
  6. Cool the brownie completely in the tin on a wire rack. The middle may sink a bit; if it does, just gently press down on the sides as it cools to make it a bit more even.
  7. Once it’s cool, chill the brownie in the fridge for 30 minutes or so to firm it up so it’s easier to slice. When you’re ready to cut it, grasp the foil and carefully ease the whole brownie out of the tin. Invert it onto a chopping board and gently peel away the foil and paper. Slice the brownie into bars with a hot, dry knife. Dust the bars with icing sugar if liked and line them up on a serving plate.
  8. If you’re not eating them straight away, you can store the brownies in an airtight container for a day or two at cool room temperature. Otherwise, layer them between sheets of baking paper in an airtight container and store them, tightly sealed, in the fridge for 1 week or freezer for 3 weeks.

Spicy chicken salad

$
0
0

This is my interpretation of the fresh and flavour-packed laap, one of the most common Lao salads, and a close relative of the Thai larb or larp. The salad can be served in the traditional manner, piled inside crisp iceberg lettuce cups (like Chinese sang choi bao) or just heaped onto plates.

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix the chicken with the oil, chilli powder and pepper. Cook over coals or under a hot grill for 5–6 minutes until cooked. Mince the meat using a sharp knife or cleaver (do not blend as this ruins the texture).
  2. In another bowl, mix the finely minced chicken with the coriander, eggplant, chilli, galangal and lemongrass, then moisten with the fish sauce and lime juice. Leave for 2 minutes to marinate slightly.
  3. Stir in the shredded cabbage and lettuce leaves, mint and roasted rice powder. Spoon the chicken salad onto serving plates, dust with a little extra roasted and ground rice, and serve.

400 g organic chicken thigh fillets, cut into quarters

You will love the pungent aroma and full flavour of this dish. The fresh-tasting fennel holds up very well against the strong cheese.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Arrange the fennel in a baking tray and cover with the cream and stock. Put a piece of gorgonzola on each piece of fennel, then season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the fennel is tender and slightly browned on top. Scatter some extra gorgonzola on top, if using.
Guy Grossi
Serves 6

4 bulbs fennel, quartered

¼ cup (60 ml) cream

¾ cup (180 ml) chicken stock or vegetable stock

250 g dolce latte gorgonzola, broken into pieces, plus extra to serve (optional)

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Beef and mushroom pie

$
0
0

Ready-made puff pastry is perfect for this pie. The filling is best made the day before you need it as it should be cold or at room temperature before it is topped with the pastry. The filling is also really good served warm on toast.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (Gas Mark 4).
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add the meat and flour and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the stock or water and wine and bring to the boil. Add the thyme and bay leaves, then cover, transfer to the oven and cook for 1½ hours, stirring occasionally. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and season well with salt and pepper. Allow to cool – preferably chill overnight.
  4. Preheat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5).
  5. Spoon the beef mixture into a large pie dish. Cover with the pastry, pressing down on the edges to seal. Trim away any excess pastry, then brush with the beaten egg and bake for 40–45 minutes or until the pastry is golden and the filling is warmed through.

Serves 4

100 ml olive oil

Pan-roasted kingfish with lemon, caper and crouton butter sauce

$
0
0

Here’s a classic French combination given an Aussie twist by using kingfish. It makes a really quick but classy main course for lunch or dinner. The delicious hiramasa (farmed kingfish from South Australia) we now have is great because it means there is a year-round supply of an otherwise seasonal fish, and that the kingfish are always of a consistent size.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. To make the croutons, heat the olive oil and butter in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium heat. Add the bread and shake the pan for 5–6 minutes or until the croutons are golden and crisp. Drain on paper towel and wipe the pan clean.
  3. Add the olive oil to the pan and place over medium heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper, then cook, skin-side down, for 4–5 minutes or until golden. Turn the fish over, then transfer the pan to the oven to cook the fish for 5 minutes or until it is just cooked through. Remove from the pan and place on serving plates.
  4. Pour off any oil from the pan and return to low heat. Add the butter and, as soon as it starts to foam, add the lemon segments, capers, croutons and parsley and toss to combine well.
  5. Pour the sauce over the fish fillets and serve immediately with a mixed leaf salad.


Manu Feildel
Serves 4

50 ml olive oil

4 × 200 g kingfish fillets, skin-on

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

100 g unsalted butter, chopped

1 lemon, cut into segments

40 g salted baby capers, rinsed well

handful chopped flat-leaf parsley

mixed leaf salad, to serve

CROUTONS

2 tablespoons olive oil

20 g unsalted butter
