Starter: thinly sliced Fennel, raddicio, chicory, Waitrose burrata, lemon zest (oh I forgot this), and juice, and wholegrain mustard. They recommended hazelnuts but I switched to cashews and fry fried them until golden. Do this in any combination and you can’t lose.
Main Event: Porchetta. Never made this before. With the confidence of a novice, I ordered my rolled pork loin. Realised it wasn’t enough for 4, bought a slab of pork from the butcher’s and just hoped for the best trying to rework the recipe (it’s Jamie Oliver’s Porchetta fyi). Our favourite butcher at said “I wouldn’t put chicken livers in it” but I’d committed by then. And if you have Vino Santo, you should probably use it.
It… was… delicious!!! They cooked (2 of them now you see) like an hour and a half before I was ready but it was fine wrapped in foil. The gravy was amazing (pic 2).The roasters were tossed in my concoction of chicken powder, garlic power, and baking powder, oh and they were par boiled in stock so I’m really pulling out all the guns here. You can imagine, top tier, would be proud ❤️
