Recipes:

Duck Fat Potatoes

Ingredients:

12 medium sized potatoes

3 tbsp duck fat

2 sprigs rosemary, finely chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

1.Peel the potatoes and cut either side off to leave a thickness of approx. 1cm.

TIP – Try to make sure all the potatoes are the same thickness; this allows them to cook evenly.

TIP – Keep the trimmings and use to make a soup, mashed potato or chips.

2.Brush the potatoes with the duck fat and season. Sprinkle evenly with the rosemary.

3.To cook, pre heat your grill. Lay the potatoes out evenly and cook for approx. 20 minutes. The cooking time can vary depending on the variety of potato you use. You can check after 15 minutes using the end of a knife through the middle.

Sprouts with Shallots and Smoked Bacon

Ingredients:

200-300 sprouts

4 rashers smoked streaky bacon

2 banana shallots

Method:

1.Trim the bottom of the sprouts and remove any excess leaves. Cut them in ½ and wash thoroughly under cold water. Drain and pat dry with a cloth or kitchen paper.

2.Peel the shallots and cut into rings approx. 1cm thick.

3.To cook, pre heat your grill. Cook the bacon rashers first for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the grill and set aside.

TIP – Don’t wipe the grill clean before adding the shallots and sprouts, doing this adds the bacon flavour to the sprouts when cooking.

4.Whilst the bacon is cooking, brush the shallots and sprouts and shallots with some olive oil and season. Once the bacon has been removed add the sprouts and shallots to the grill and cook for approx. 8 minutes or until soft.

5.Whilst the sprouts and shallots are cooking, cut the bacon into small pieces. When the sprouts and shallots are cooked, add to the bacon making sure the shallots are pulled apart into rings.
