Grilled sardines with garlic roasted potatoes and salsa verde Recipe

Make the salsa verde first, its flavour will intensify as you prepare the rest of the dish. Combine a finely diced shallot with a pinch of salt and 30ml of sherry vinegar and set aside for 10 minutes

Drain and finely chop 2 tbsp capers. Chop 1/2 bunch of flat leaved  parsley, the leaves of 3 sprigs of mint and 4 anchovies. Add 1 tsp Dyon mustard, the juice of 1/2 a lemon, 1/2 minced clove of garlic, a glug of oil  and the chopped ingredients to the shallots and stir to combine. Season to taste with pepper and set aside in the fridge until required

Place 250 g potatoes into a pot. Cover generously with cold water and a large pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and gently simmer for 7-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are just cooked. Strain and allow to steam until cool

Preheat the oven to 180˚C/gas mark 4

Once the potatoes are cool, slice in half on the diagonal and place into a large bowl. Add 3 crushed cloves of garlic, 1 tbsp chopped lemon thyme, 1 tsp finely chopped rosemary, 40 ml olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly 

Place on a tray and into the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are hot and crispy on the outside

Meanwhile, heat the griddle pan or barbecue until very hot. Season 4 butterflied sardines with salt, pepper and a dash of lemon juice and leave for 5 minutes

Brush the sardines with a little vegetable oil and place onto the hot grill or barbecue. Cook for 2 minutes on each side, until just cooked through. Remove and allow to rest for 2 minutes

Remove the potatoes from the oven and divide evenly onto 2 plates. Place 2 sardines onto each plate and top with the salsa verde. Serve immediately

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
