Hot Tips

Pebre

The way the onions are prepared for the Pebre is a revelation and crucial for the right taste and texture. To finely chopped onion, mix through raw sugar and hot water then allow it to stand to mellow the acidity. Rinse and mix through salt in the same way.

Glossary

Mustardseed Oil

The oil of the mustard plant, this healthy oil has a pleasant nutty flavour and is traditionally used to make Indian curries, pickles and relishes but can be adapted to suit any dish using raw or cooked oil.
