Prep Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 25 mins

Ingredients (Serves 4):

1 1/2-2 lbs beef stew meat, less than 1 inch thick
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 small onion, grated
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Directions:

1. Cut any large pieces of meat in half so they will cook faster. Then place the beef cubes in a medium bowl. Chop the parsley & add it to the beef, set aside to be used later.

2. Pour the olive oil in a small glass bowl. Add the spices, vinegar & tomato paste, stir until well blended. Grate the onion & add it to the oil mixture.

3. Stir the mixture in with the beef until it is well coated. Cover with a lid & place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours.

5. Serve with thick bread instead of utensils. (Moroccans eat most of their food with their right hand, using only bread to scoop up the meal).

Cider roast turkey recipe


The Lebanese Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious Lebanese Recipes and Middle Eastern food recipes) invites you to try Cider roast turkey recipe. Enjoy Christmas cooking recipes and learn how to make Cider roast turkey.

Succulent, cider-roasted turkey, with tender glazed apples and pear makes the ultimate centrepiece for your Christmas table.

Moderately easy
Serves 8
Prep 15 mins
Cook 4 hrs
Approx 4 hrs cooking for a 4.5kg bird

Ingredients

FOR THE TURKEY

4.5-6kg/10-13lb turkey , giblets removed and kept
450g stuffing
2 leeks , trimmed and halved
2 carrots , halved
50g butter , softened
300ml dry cider

FOR THE GRAVY

300ml dry cider
600ml chicken stock
2 tbsp quince or redcurrant jelly

Method

1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Wash and dry the turkey, removing any feathers. Pull out the giblets and the neck, then set aside. Lift up the skin that covers the neck opening, then stuff the stuffing up and under the skin, securing it tightly underneath with a skewer or two cocktail sticks. Weigh the stuffed turkey, then calculate the cooking time, allowing 40 mins per kg (20 mins per lb).

2. Put the leeks and carrots along the bottom of a roasting tin in a single layer - this will make a trivet for the turkey to sit on and add flavour to the gravy. Add the neck to the tin. Sit the turkey on top and coat the breast all over with butter. Pour in the cider, cover with foil, then roast according to your timings. Keep checking the tin - if the vegetables look like they're burning, add a splash of water or cider. At 30 mins before the end of cooking, remove the foil and season generously. To test that the turkey is ready, pierce the thigh through its thickest part; the juices should run clear. Take the turkey out and leave to rest, covered with a clean tea towel. Can leave to rest for up to 1 hr. Now make the gravy. Drain the fat and juices from the tin into a jug, discarding the veg and the neck. Place the tin over a flame, then pour in the cider, scraping up the flavour-filled crusty bits with a wooden spoon. Reduce the cider by half, then strain into a saucepan (this will save you hob space later).

Pancetta-wrapped turkey breast with herby lemon & pine nut stuffing


The Lebanese Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious Lebanese Recipes and Middle Eastern food recipes) invites you to try Pancetta-wrapped turkey breast with herby lemon & pine nut stuffing recipe. Enjoy Christmas cooking recipes and learn how to make Pancetta-wrapped turkey breast with herby lemon & pine nut stuffing.

No need for impressive carving skills with this easy-to-serve dish with creamy gravy.

Ingredients

butter , for greasing
20 rashers pancetta (2 x 70g/2oz packs) or thinly sliced streaky bacon
3kg 104 oz butterflied turkeys breast (see know-how below)

FOR THE STUFFING

25g butter
1 tbsp olive oil
2 large onions , halved and sliced
140g pack pancetta cubes or bacon lardons
50g pine nuts
4 garlic cloves , chopped
25g pack sage , leaves only, roughly chopped
zest 2 lemons
2 x 20g/1oz packs flat-leaf parsley , roughly chopped
100g coarse white breadcrumbs
1 egg , beaten

FOR THE GRAVY

300ml dry white wine
300ml chicken stock
142ml pot double cream
handful flat-leaf parsley , roughly chopped

Method

1. First prepare the stuffing. Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan, then soften the onion without colouring for 10 mins. Tip into a bowl. Add the pancetta or bacon to the pan, fry for 5 mins until golden, then add the pine nuts, garlic, sage and lemon zest. Fry for 1 min more until fragrant and the pine nuts are starting to brown. Stir in the chopped parsley. Tip into the bowl with the onions, then bind with the crumbs, egg and seasoning.

2. Butter and season a sheet of turkey foil or use 2 sheets of foil crimped together to make a sheet about 50 x 60cm. Lay five long pieces of string over the foil like rungs of a ladder, ready to tie the breast together. Arrange the pancetta or bacon in a lattice over the middle of the foil, on top of the string.

3. Open out the butterflied breast, skin-side down, and slash each side several times. Cover with cling film and bash with a rolling pin until the meat is about 5cm thick all over. Trim the sides so that you have a roughly rectangular shape (but be careful not to cut the skin). Lift onto the pancetta, then fill any gaps with the trimmings. Season, then press the stuffing along the middle of the joint. Pull up the sides at one end, tucking in the short end, then tie the string tightly so that the stuffing is encased. Repeat with all the strings. Wrap up tightly in the foil, then turn the roll over so that the pancetta is on the top. Can be left in the fridge for up to 2 days.

4. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Sit the joint in a roasting tin and roast for 40 mins per kg or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out very hot and the juices run clear. Unwrap for the last 10 mins of cooking.

5. Lift the joint onto a board and leave to rest, covered, for at least 10 mins. For the gravy, heat the tin on the hob, then splash in the wine and any juices. Reduce by half, then add the stock and repeat. Pour in the cream and bubble to a slightly reduced sauce. Season to taste, then stir in the parsley.

Try

Sticky rosemary & garlic roots
Cut 1 medium swede (about 500g), 500g parsnips and 500g carrots into chunks. Peel and cut 2 red onions into 6 wedges each, leaving the root ends intact. Peel 5 garlic cloves; leave whole. Heat 25g butter in a large, lidded frying pan, then add the veg, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary and 4 tbsp veg stock. Season well, then put the lid on and cook gently for about 25 mins or until tender.

Know-how - butterflied turkey breast
A butterflied turkey breast is two turkey breasts taken off the bird and still joined by the skin. Ask your butcher to do this for you.

Roast sirloin of beef recipe


The Lebanese Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious Lebanese Recipes and Middle Eastern food recipes) invites you to try Roast sirloin of beef recipe. Enjoy Christmas cooking recipes and learn how to make Roast sirloin of beef.

Gary Rhodes' delicious, succulent roast beef dish is perfect for Boxing Day lunch or an alternative Christmas Day roast. Just four ingredients

Easy
Serves 6
Prep 10 mins
Cook 1 hr - 2 hrs 30 mins Plus resting time

Ingredients

2 tbsp vegetable oil or beef fat
1-1.5kg/2lb 4-3lb 5oz sirloin of beef joint
1 glass red wine
400g can beef consommé

Method

1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil or fat in a large fl ameproof roasting tin in the oven for 5-10 mins. Season the beef all over.

2. Place the joint fat-side down in the roasting tin and put it on the hob. Sizzle to release some of the fat, then turn the beef in the fat to seal and colour it all over, about 5 mins. The joint can now be roasted, fat-side up, allowing 10-15 mins per 450g for medium-rare, 15-20 mins per 450g for medium, 20-25 mins for medium-well and 25-30 mins for well done. Turn the joint halfway through its cooking time for an even roast. Once roasted, remove the beef from the pan and leave to one side, loosely covered with foil, to rest for 15-20 mins.

3. Meanwhile, pour off any excess fat from the roasting tin, then put the tin on a medium heat on top of the stove. Once it begins to sizzle, pour in the red wine, allowing it to boil rapidly until almost completely evaporated. Tip in the consommé and allow to simmer for 4-5 mins. This will give a light sauce, rather than a gravy (see tip, below). Simmer for a few more mins before straining through a sieve for the smoothest of fi nishes. Carve the beef into thick slices, offering the gravy separately.

Try

Thicker gravy
If you prefer a thicker gravy, loosen 1-2 tsp cornflour with a little cold water and whisk slowly into the simmering stock, until it reaches the consistency you like.
