Spring Recipe
Asparagus & Goat’s Cheese Tart
Puff pastry spread with goat’s cheese whipped loose with lemon and garlic, then laid tight with whole asparagus spears and baked until the border puffs up deep golden. The spears go tender but keep their bite, and the cheese sets just enough to hold a slice together. It looks like far more work than it…
Crispy Skin Barramundi with Lemon Butter Sauce
Barramundi fillets with shattered-crisp skin and flesh that flakes into big, pearly pieces underneath. Crisp skin comes down to three things: dry skin, a properly hot pan, and leaving the fish alone once it’s down. The sauce is nothing more than butter cooked until it turns golden and smells nutty, then sharpened with lemon. Buy…
Grilled Lamb Cutlets with Salsa Verde
Lamb cutlets rubbed with ground fennel and seared hard, so the fat crisps at the edges and the middle stays pink. Parsley and oregano pounded coarsely with garlic, capers, anchovy and lemon, loose enough to spoon over and sharp enough to cut through the fat. Pick up your cutlets from the Queen Victoria Market butchers,…
Lemon & Pea Risotto
A risotto built on spring peas, lemon and mint. Creamy but sharp, not heavy. Smashing some of the peas before they go in gives the rice a green sweetness throughout, instead of just pockets of it. Pick up your peas and lemons at Queen Victoria Market. Home delivery and Click & Collect both available! Serves…
Spring Vegetable Quiche with Asparagus & Peas
A proper quiche, loaded with asparagus, peas and broad beans, in a cheddar shortcrust that’s worth the extra ten minutes. Good cold the next day, which makes it as useful for lunchboxes as it is for a long Sunday breakfast. Source your spring greens at Queen Victoria Market and have them delivered, or grab them…
Parsnip & carrot mash with butter and thyme
This parsnip and carrot mash takes two humble root vegetables and turns them into something rich and silky. Butter keeps it smooth, lemon zest cuts through the sweetness, and fresh thyme rounds it all out with a little earthiness.
