Ingredient: salt and freshly ground black pepper Recipes
Beef Stroganoff
Beef stroganoff in 30 minutes with tender steak and a sour cream sauce that does not split. Serves 4, and the cut of beef that makes the difference.
Cottage Pie
Cottage pie with a filling thick enough to hold the mash up and a crisp forked top. Serves 6 in about 1 hour 20, plus the shepherds pie difference.
Slow Cooker Lamb Shanks
Lamb shanks slow cooked in red wine and rosemary until the meat falls off the bone, with a sauce reduced properly. Serves 4, 8 hours in the cooker.
Potato Salad
Potato salad is on every New Zealand Christmas table and beside every barbecue from Labour Weekend to Easter, and most of it is disappointing in the same way: the potatoes taste of nothing and the dressing sits on the outside.
