Pan Fried Salmon

Pan Fried Salmon

Ingredients

  • 250gm salmon filet
  • 1 tablespoon rosemary, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions

1.    With the skin side facing out, score the skin crosswise in parallel lines to about halfway deep in the filet.  Scoring the salmon filet prevents it from curling while cooking, ensuring it’s cooked nice and evenly.

2.    Open each score and sprinkle salt and rosemary into the cut. Glaze the top of the salmon filet with olive oil.

3.    Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat.  Add salmon, skin side down, as soon as the oil begins to lightly smoke. Keep your fingers on top of the salmon filet for a bit to keep it nice and flat.  Watch the side of the piece of salmon for colour changes. When 2/3 of the salmon has turned opaque, flip it to the other side and cook until it’s done.

Lamb and Fresh Mint Curry

These lamb curries pull no punches. Simmered in a powerful blend of spices, the result is rich, thick and comforting bowls of curry, with a side of rice or bread the ideal medium to convey the flavours. There’s a lamb shoulder and chickpea curry heaving with garam masala, cloves and cardamom, with a lick of buttermilk for additional oomph; while the lamb-neck korma comes thick with ground almonds and ground coconut. For a lighter-style curry, give the dry lamb and eggplant a spin – there’s gentle astringency from tomatoes and tamarind to balance out the glow of the spices.

Fiery Lamb Shank Casserole

There is little distinction between a casserole and a stew. A purist would say that a casserole goes in the broiler, heating the dish from all directions, while a stew goes on the stovetop and is warmed from the base. Another point of contrast is a casserole is the name of the pot used for cooking. It has gotten referred to as the cooking technique as well.

Beef Osso Bucco

In the chilly winters of northern Italy, in the dairy land of Lombardy, osso bucco was conceived. Like numerous things Italian, it sprang from both logic and hunger.  Male calves brought into the world in the dairies, having no potential for future milking, were slaughtered for meat before being weaned off their mothers’ milk. This pale, rosy meat was sold by farmers as a delicacy, with the flavourful “lesser cuts” regularly kept at home for generous winter suppers.

Osso bucco, literally meaning “hole in the bone,” is a crosscut shank of veal, with the meat surrounding the bone in the middle. At the point when slowly braised it becomes as delicate as meat can be, with a soft, silky surface and a rich, delicious sauce. At that point, of course, there’s the best piece of all: the bonus of velvety, melt-in-your-mouth marrow from inside the bone.
