Put the lid on and process. Once it looks like everything is broken up a little, begin to stream in the olive oil. When it starts to thicken, add the soy sauce, lemon juice and Worcestershire, then the remaining olive oil. Finish with the cream and a bit of water to loosen it to a thick but drizzly consistency. Add a few cracks of fresh black pepper and check and adjust the seasoning. Refrigerate until ready to use.2.To make the salad, heat the olive oil in a small sauté pan over a high heat and add the dry capers. Ensure they are as dry as you can make them to avoid too much splatter. Allow the capers to sizzle a little and, when they have almost finished sizzling (meaning most of the water has evaporated), scoop them out and dry them on a piece of paper towel. Reserve the oil.3.Tear bread into rough pieces and add to the pan. Use the caper oil and some more olive oil, if needed, to shallow-fry croutons over medium heat. You want to fry the bread on a couple of sides, but you don't want it to be completely crispy. You want a bit of soft chew with a crusty exterior. Try to do this in one layer so that you don't overcrowd the pan. This might mean you need to do it in a couple of batches. Season croutons with salt and pepper.4.Spread the tonnato on the plate first, then cut up the tomatoes into thick slices and arrange on top. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Scatter the croutons over the top. Finish with fried capers and fresh picked basil leaves. Serve immediately.

Palak & Potato Curry from Alice Zaslavsky's upcoming The Joy of Better Cooking.6-8 New potatoes, washed, scrubbed and quartered to fork size.1 brown onion roughly chopped1 thumb-sized knob of ginger, roughly chopped (no need to peel)2-3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped2 long green chillies (or to taste) finely chopped2 teaspoons salt flakes1 teaspoon garam masala1 teaspoon ground cumin1 teaspoons ground coriander2 bunches of English spinach, washed and spun (Corrie added heaps more).1 tomato roughly chopped¼ cup (60ml) neutral-flavoured oil.Tadka topping2 tablespoons neutral-flavoured oil (like grapeseed oil)24 fresh curry leaves (roughly 2-3 stems)2-3 small whole dried red chillies2 teaspoons brown mustard seeds2 teaspoons cumin seedsTo serveCooked white or brown basmati riceLemon wedges½ cup (125ml) single (pure) cream, or plain or coconut yoghurtPlace the potato pieces in a saucepan of well-salted cold water. Bring to the boil, then drop the heat to a simmer and cook until fork-tender (about 15-20minutes). Drain and set aside.Meanwhile get cracking on the topping. In a large, heavy-based saucepan, heat the oil to shimmering. Fry the curry leaves until crispy and vibrant green, then remove and drain on a paper towel. Keeping the heat low, temper the whole spices, largest to smallest, making sure not to burn them. Add the whole chillies and mustard seeds in the first minute; once the mustard seeds start to pop, add the cumin seeds. Once aromatic, skim the spices out of oil and set aside with the curry leaves for garnishing.Add the onion and ginger to the left-over spice oil in the pan and listen for sizzle. Stir about, cover with the lid and turn the heat down low. Allow the onion mixture to sweat away for 8-10mnutes. Once the onion has softened but not coloured, add the garlic, green chilli, salt, garam masala and ground cumin and coriander and stir until fragrant.Pop the spinach leaves into the pan, stirring to coat. Cover with the li for 4-5 minutes over low heat, preparing for The Ulitimate Dissapearing Spinach Trick that takes what seems to be an inordinate amount of spinach and makes it…practically disappear, like magic.Once the spinach has wilted, transfer the mixture to a blender, add the tomato and blitz until finely chopped. With the motor going slowly pour in the oil to emulsify to a fine, creamy gravy.Pour the palak back into the pan, add the cooked potato and gently warm everything through. Serve the palak over the rice, scattered with the tempered spices and curry leaves, with lemon wedges and cream or yoghurt. `

Scoop the seeds out. Use the pumpkin hollow as a bowl to make a paste with the sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then rub into the pumpkin halves.Pull the hot baking tray out and carefully line the base with a sheet of baking pater. Drizzle another 2 tablespoons of olive oil across the middle of the baking tray and lay the pumpkin halves, face side down, across the oily bits.Transfer to the over and roast for 40-50 minutes, until a fork can be poked through the top of the skin.With 15 minutes to go, wrap the macadamia nuts in a clean tea towel.

Add the butter and remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and place over medium heat. Squash the olives between your thumb and forefinger to split them in half and pop out the pits. Toss the pitted olives and the sage into the butter mixture and gently sizzle for about 2-3 minutes, until the butter has turned as nut-brown as the nuts.When the pumpkin is ready, pile the nut mixture into the pumpkin hollows, drizzling any left-over buttery sauce around the pumpkin.

Spread mixture over the pears.Bake for 45-60 minutes.When cool, turn out carefully onto a serving plate. Serve with cream or ice cream. Movida's Beef Cheeks Slowly Braised with Pedro Ximenez and Cauliflower Puree Ingredients:· 1.5 kg Beef Cheeks· 125 ml (½ cup) olive oil· 3 carrots, roughly chopped· 1 garlic bulb, halved· 1 brown onion, sliced· 500 ml (2 cups) Pedro Ximenez sherry· 500 ml (2 cups) red wine· 3 bay leaves· 3 tablespoons thyme leaves· 1 teaspoon fine sea salt· 1 head of cauliflower, broken into florets· 185 ml (¾ cup) cream· 40g butter Method:1. Trim the beef cheeks to neaten them up and remove any sinew and silver skin. Season well. Pre heat oven to 150º.2. Heat half the olive oil in a large heavy-based, oven proof casserole dish over high heat. Brown the beef cheeks for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden, then remove from the pan.Add the remaining olive oil, then add the carrot, garlic and onion and sauté over high heat for 12-15 minutes, or until well browned. Stir in the sherry, wine, bay leaves, thyme, sea salt and 500 ml (17 fl oz/2 cups) water.3. Add the beef cheeks back into the dish, cover and cook in the oven for 4-6 hours, or until the cheeks are beginning to fall apart.4. Meanwhile, put the cauliflower, cream and butter in a saucepan, season to taste with salt, then cover and cook over low heat for 35 minutes, or until very tender. Place the cauliflower mixture in a blender and process until smooth. Keep the puree warm.5. The sauce from the beef cheeks should by now be reduced and glaze-like. If it needs further reducing, remove the cheeks from the pan, cover with foil to keep them warm and simmer the sauce over high heat until nicely reduced. Strain the sauce through a fine sieve and return to the pan; gently reheat the cheeks in the sauce if necessary.6. Serve the cheeks and their sauce on warm plates with the cauliflower pureeon the side.

I don't have the energy or courage to cater for a living but, if I did, this lemony dish would be one of my go-to entrees, and not just for big, fat weddings. It's a proven crowd-pleaser, simple to make, and easy on the wallet.Ingredient4 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs3 russet potatoes, peeled and quartered½ cup fresh lemon juice½ cup olive oil6 cloves garlic, minced1 tablespoon dried oregano1 tablespoon kosher salt1 teaspoon dried rosemary1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper1 pinch cayenne pepper1 cup chicken broth, divided1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano, or to tasteDirectionsStep 1Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly oil a large roasting pan.Step 2Place chicken and potatoes in a large bowl. Add lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, dried oregano, salt, rosemary, black pepper, and cayenne. Toss until chicken and potatoes are evenly coated.Step 3Place chicken pieces skin-side up in the prepared pan. Tuck potato pieces around chicken. Drizzle with 2/3 cup chicken broth. Spoon any remaining marinade from the bowl over chicken and potatoes.Step 4Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Toss chicken and potatoes, then place chicken skin-side up again.Step 5Continue baking until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 25 minutes more; an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).Step 6Transfer chicken to a serving platter and keep warm; leave potatoes in the pan.Step 7Turn on the broiler, or set oven to highest heat. Toss potatoes again to coat in pan juices. Place the pan under the broiler and broil until potatoes are crisped, about 3 minutes.Step 8Transfer potatoes to the platter with chicken.Step 9Place the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium heat.

Arrange the brussels sprouts, cut side down, in the marinade to help it soak in.When the oven has heated up, give the brussels sprouts one last stir through the marinade. Wearing an oven mitt, take the hot tray from the oven, line it with baking paper, then pop the brussels sprouts onto the hot tray, from outside in, using a pair of tongs in your other hand to turn them cut side down again; reserve the remaining marinade in the bowl.Roast the sprouts for 10 minutes, or until the top leaves are basically burnt.Pour the peanut oil into your left-over marinade to loosen it off, then drizzle over the roasted sprouts.Toss them into a bowl and smugly serve, scattered with peanuts and chopped red chilli if you like. These sprouts are sure to turn even the most bullish Brassica denier into a believer.Tips:Preheating the tray helps give more of a golden crust on the sprouts.Feel free to skip lining the tray before using if you like to live dangerously – it'll give you more colour on the sprouts, but will take some cleaning.Soaking the stains in vinegar and bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) followed by a good scrub should do it.I like to use an appropriately sized storage vessel for marinading purposes, so that I can pop the leftovers in there and save on washing up!If you decide to give the marinade a whirl with lamb, try using lamb eye fillet rather than rump, and pull back on the honey; 1 tablespoon should suffice.Dietaries: Sub in maple syrup instead of honey to turn this one fully plant-based.

A good seasoning with salt and pepper is all you need; the barbecue can do the rest of the work.Ingredients6 spring onions3 garlic cloves, peeled and bruised1.2kg lamb leg, butterfliedsalt and pepper, to season¾ cup olive oil2 large green chillies½ bunch mint, picked3 tbsp apple cider vinegargood pinch of sugarMethod1. Cut the spring onions into 10cm lengths, discarding the roots. Place the spring onions and garlic on a deep plate. Season the lamb all over with salt and pepper and place it on top of the spring onions and garlic. Drizzle with ¼ cup of olive oil and set aside for at least an hour.2. Heat the grill of a hooded barbecue to medium heat and grill the lamb for about 25-30 minutes, turning once, until it's well browned and cooked to your liking. If you don't have a hooded barbecue, sear the lamb until well browned and then cook in an oven at 200C fan-forced (220C conventional) for about 30 minutes. Set aside to rest.3. While the lamb is resting, grill the onions, garlic and green chillies until blistered and lightly blackened. Move to a cutting board and roughly chop it all together. Combine with the mint, apple cider vinegar, sugar and remaining olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper and mix to combine. Slice the lamb across the grain into slices 1cm thick and spoon the salsa over the top.

Grease an 8¾-inch to 10-inch round cake pan with softened butter and line with parchment paper.2. MAKE THE TOPPING: In a small saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar until the sugar crystals have melted and the mixture is bubbling. Simmer for 1 minute, then pour into the prepared pan. Arrange the pineapple pieces on top of the caramel in any pattern you like. Try to cover as much surface area as possible so you can have a lot of fruit in each slice. Preheat the oven to 350°F.3. MAKE THE BATTER: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes, then add the egg yolks, ginger and vanilla and mix until well incorporated. In a separate, clean bowl, whip the egg whites (either by hand or with a handheld mixer) until soft peaks form. Set aside.4. In a medium bowl, add the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda, and whisk well to combine. Add half the dry ingredients to the butter and gently mix, then, with the machine still running, add all the milk and mix. Carefully add the remaining dry ingredients and finish mixing by hand with a spatula. Fold in the whipped egg whites. Pour the batter on top of the pineapple in the pan and spread it out evenly. Gently tap the pan on your work surface to ensure the cake batter has dropped into place.5. Bake until a skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool slightly before flipping the cake out. To flip it over, place a flat plate or cake tray on top of the pan, then, holding the plate in place with your hand, flip the cake over quickly and carefully. Once flipped, remove the pan and peel back the parchment paper. Serve warm or at room temperature.NOTE: Superfine sugar, also known as caster sugar, is just sugar that has been ground into finer crystals than granulated sugar. (This makes it lighter in weight and quicker to dissolve.) If you can't find it at the store, you can make your own: For 1 cup superfine sugar, grind 1 cup and 2 teaspoons granulated sugar in a blender or food processor for 30 seconds.
