So last night was a slightly different affair for us. We catered for a private dinner party celebrating a 70th birthday. It was a lot of fun and incorporated a mix of pan work and BBQ cooking.
The menu as follows:
Sous Vide Pork Belly with Roasted Red Onions & Port Jus;
BBQ’d Flat Iron Steak on Celeriac Mash with Buttered Baby Carrots, Stem Broccoli & Red Onion Jus;
White Chocolate Cheesecake with Raspberry Coulis.
