Hot Tips

Resting meat

Never serve roasted meat straight out of the oven. Instead allow the meat to rest in a warm place, loosely covered with foil, for around 20 minutes, This will allow the juices to redistribute evenly among the meat, rather than escaping onto the plate when the meat is carved.

Glossary

Baharat

Baharat: paprika, pepper, cumin, cassia, cloves, coriander seed, cardamo and nutmeg.
