Beef & Prune Tangine & Strawberry & Coconut Cake
If I haven’t said it before I will say it now, this Modern Classics book is a must for all everyday type cooks like me. It can make you look really good, trust me. This beef recipe is very simple, economical (because you are using a cheaper cut of meat) and extremely tasty.
Steaks with Whisky Cream Sauce & Rockmelon Ice-cream
This brings back memories of actual dinner parties in the 70’s and early 80’s when we thought we were just so very modern and on trend. I decided I wanted to go back in time and try some of the old dinner party recipes from Women’s Weekly.
Beef Bourguignon Pies & Balsamic Strawberries
This Bourguignon would be great made up and frozen as the flavours would settle into the meat even more and it is just a wonderful meal to have on hand. So very easy with the ready-made pastry and frozen chips as recommended in the recipe.
Thai Beef Salad and Lime & Raspberry Tart
This menu was a great summer night menu. I have made various Thai Beef salads over the years but this one just hit the spot. I did, as suggested and added and subtracted. I added blanched asparagus, mango, avocado and beautiful little tomatoes.
Beef steak with scent of Chianti rub & Tiramisu
The rub is easy to make up and keeps in the fridge for up to four days so anything left over can be used at a later date. This was nice but you know what at the end of the day a steak is a steak is a steak!!
