Easter Recipes

Grilling mushrooms?

Trying mixing horseradish with grainy mustard, parsley and softened butter and dolloping over the flat mushrooms before grilling. Also great with steak. 

Should I grease my baking tins?

This helps stop food sticking. Brush the tin with melted butter or use some baking paper with a little butter on it to rub around the inside of the tin. 

Runny white sauce?

If your white sauce isn’t thick enough, you can whisk in a little cornflour and water paste or begin again by making another roux and whisking in the runny white sauce in place of the milk. 

Delicious slow roasted tomoatoes

Simply slice roma tomatoes in half, lay cut side up on a lined baking tray, season with salt and pepper, and top each tomato with a slice of garlic and a knob of butter. Bake at 140°-150°C for 1-2 hours or until done to your liking. Use in salads, antipasto or simply enjoy on fresh bread! 

Forgotten to soften the butter?

Grate butter coarsely, spread onto baking paper and stand for 10 minutes before using. Alternatively chop into 2cm cubes, microwave on 30% power in 10 second bursts until just softened.
