Method

1. In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients except the vegetable oil, taking care not to break the sweet corn too much for better visual presentation.
2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium to high heat, add the oil. Spoon, chunks of the mixture onto the pan and flatten with a back of an egg lifter to shape into a rustic round. Fry for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown

Cooks tip – Try and get very long baby marrows to grate. The less mixture you put on the pan, the more defined the ingredients will be – about ½ spoon to a shallow filled spoon.

Method

1. To make the brittle, heat the sugar and the water together over medium heat in a small saucepan until caramel stage (170°C On a sugar thermometer or see cooks tip). Dip pastry brush into cold water and brush of the insides of the saucepan to prevent the sugar from crystalizing.
2. Scatter the chia seeds onto a baking tray lines with baking paper. Pour the hot caramel over the seeds (caution the sugar is very hot at this stage) and let it set.
3. Layer the salad ingredients onto a serving platter/ board. Break the chia brittle into small shards and scatter over the salad. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze.

Cooks tip – Do not stir the sugar while cooking, yet you can swirl the pan a few times. If you do not have a sugar thermometer, take the sugar off the heat once you start seeing a swirl of a straw caramel colour. Swirl the mixture and check the colour as the sugar continues to cook while off the stove. Substitute tongue with left over beef roast.

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat the whole peel tomatoes in a medium saucepan over high heat and use a masher to break the tomatoes into a pulp, 2 minutes. Add the lamb and oregano, stir to combine. Remove from the heat.
2. Brush the phyllo with melted butter in between the sheets while stacking them on top of each other. Fill the middle of the top phyllo with the lamb mixture. Fold the pastry to enclose the lamb, using melted butter to stick it together. Pull the top phyllo layer to create a ruffled effect. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until golden brown.
3. While baking, make the salsa by combining all the ingredients in a bowl and season with salt and pepper, garnish with extra mint.

Cooks tip – Cover phyllo pastry with cling wrap while working with it to avoid it from drying out.

Method

1. Pre-heat the oven to 200°C. Toss together the corned beef, cheese, red onion and coriander in a bowl.

Fill the wanton sheets with a little filling about a spoon full, not too much and roll into a cylindrical shape and twist the ends to form a cracker shape. Place on a lines baking tray and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve with sriracha sauce.
