They look epic, how do you get the crispy rind without the meat tasting like cardboard?
Thanks,

I had a bit of a plan, I wanted thick crackling on the chop so I got my butcher to cut a wide peice off.

Usual thing for crackling; boiling water, white wine vinager and then salt rubbed in.

I sacrificed a baking potato by cutting it in half, the chop was placed between the potato halfs and held in place with a couple of thin skewers so the crackling was flat/level with the grill.

The chops were grilled on-end until the crackling was done, I then masked the crackling off with foil and lay the chops flat on a tray with butter and thyme, turning over mid way through.

Awesome, Cotters, old chap. Awesome once again.

We're having Toad in the Hole this Sunday but Crackling Roast is definitely a favourite. Yours looks lovely.

The redish / brownish bit on the right, between the couscous and the yoghurt(?), is that a separate sauce / chutney, or more of the main sauce?

Brought home a single beef rib from the place I run. Smoked in a real wood smoker. Chef brushed it with BBQ marinade and wrapped it up for me. Stick it in the oven for 45 minutes. Served with spinach gratin and little potato cubes - all I had in the freezer.

It's Harrissa, iPhone doesn't capture the colour terribly well.

Combine some with cous cous before adding water/butter to give it colour and flavour.

I combined the best bits from a couple of online recipes and my own input

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.mygourmetconnec...

I toasted my own spices and used ras al hanout.

Soaked my breadcrumbs in lemon juice and added more fresh herbs. Added chopped apricots etc

Best tip is ensure you cook the onions off and make sauce in the same pan you browned the meatballs in so you lose no flavour.

I wanted to try the lamb meatballs on this page, but the supermarket had no lamb mince! So beef meatball spaghetti it was...
