“We don’t have this in Mexico, it’s an American thing. But if we did it would be like this . . ."
This is a briliant recipe based on a recipe by Lourdes Nicholls who says something along the lines of “We don’t have this in Mexico, it’s an American thing. But if we did it would be like this . . .
I don’t wear Wellington boots and I don’t like pastry that much so . . .
This is similar to beef wellington but with lovely crispy prosciutto crudo on the outside instead of pastry.
Super-easy, even if it does take a week.
Make a brine, put some brisket in it, forget for a week and then simmer it. How hard can it be?
Any excuse to use nuoc cham and rare beef
Use any salad you like - we are weird in Europe in that we make a salad from veg and variations on lettuce and then add a few herbs whereas in other parts of the world herbs are the salad. Tabouleh in the Middle East for example isn't parsley in salad, it's parsley as salad.
No. No I don’t know why it’s called that, and I don’t care – google it if you care.
but whether or not you ever find out why it’s called that, just make it: It’s astonishingly tasty Thai Surf’n’Turf!
Beef in loads of soy sauce. It’s lovely.
But, do as I say, not as I do!
