Prawns cooked in butter, garlic, lemon juice and parsley are even better with the help of Dijon mustard. Serve with fresh crusty bread.

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

Cooked and cooled polenta can be cut into shapes and grilled to make an excellent base for a tempting topping. Here the polenta is flavoured with Gruyère cheese, and the topping is a savoury mixture of mushrooms, walnuts and herbs. Serve as a sophisticated starter, with a few mixed salad leaves if you like.

Oysters Rockefeller

Recipe by: Barrett

Reviews(2)

The original recipe of his American shellfish classic was created in New Orleans. This is my version. Freshly cooked oysters are topped with a spinach, bacon, breadcrumbs and Pernod, then placed on a bed of coarse salt and lightly grilled before serving immediately. These are very impressive!

Sautéed Scallops

Recipe by: Pati

Reviews(2)

A very impressive and delicious recipe for how simple it is! Just crush the garlic with the side of a chef's knife blade instead of chopping it, and keep the sprigs of rosemary whole - this allows them to be easily removed before serving.
