Tips

Cooking Tips.

Before you cook

Don’t cook cold meat straight from the fridge – take it out about 30 minutes before you get sizzling.

Is it ready?

When chicken is ready, the juices will run clear.

Always cover and rest red meat after cooking, to retain the juices. Resting time varies depending on the size of meat, and remember, meat will keep cooking once you’ve taken it off the heat, so be careful not to over-cook!

Perfect Pork Crackling

Pat the skin dry so there is no moisture.

Score the skin by cutting slits every 1cm across with a stanley knife or a very sharp knife.

Use approximately 2 tbsp of good quality flaky sea salt to massage the roast.

Put in a hot oven at 230°C for 20 minutes. Turn the oven down to 160°C to finish cooking until the roast reaches an internal temp of 71°C (approximately 2 hours).

Rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
