    Here's a traditional pork roast perfect for Christmas Day or any Sunday lunch. I've used Bangalow Sweet Pork from our friends at Trevor Mead Quality Meats here in Byron Bay. The Bangalow Sweet Pork fat content was tested by the CSRIO and the results indicate it is predominately unsaturated in excess of 60% (unpublished data, Food Science Australia 1998). This fat profile is the basis of our unique flavour and tenderness compares favourably with other meats, including most … [Read more...] about Roast pork with gravy

It’s been a huge time back on the tools, and work-life has come full circle from teaching cooking at Icon, upstairs at The Kitchens, Robina Town Centre QLD, to a one-night-only return to the pass at the old Cabarita Ocean Health Retreat - now called Sommerley's Ocean retreat, in Casuarina NSW - 10 years since we opened the gates, for a very special 40th birthday recently. Here's my version of Italian rolled pork featuring Bangalow Sweet Pork, homegrown sage and local macadamias.

How to confit ocean trout

by

Ocean trout is my favourite fish. I love the flavour, texture and ease of which it cooks. So whenever I see a few shiny tails beaming at me from the window of a fish shop I always grab a couple. I used to be terrified of cooking fish until I taught myself to relax about it and learn fish by fish. Today I watched Tetsuya prepare the homestyle version of his most popular dish which gave rise to confit the large tails I had kicking around my fridge. Here's my quick take with the larger … [Read more...] about How to confit ocean trout

Honey Glazed BBQ Pork rack

by

Here's a man-sized BBQ idea, featuring Bangalow sweet pork. Use a robust honey that will survive the intense heat from the BBQ. Be careful not to let it burn! I've used a four point pork rack from Trevor Mead Quality Meats which will feed four hungry folk with a big chop each or no doubt up to six - if you're keen to share. Enjoy, Sammy. https://www.foodhealthwealth.com/how-to-make-gravy/ https://www.foodhealthwealth.com/gluten-free-christmas-cake/ … [Read more...] about Honey Glazed BBQ Pork rack
