Parmesan Lamb Cutlet with Green Bean Salad















As per some requests, below is the cooking steps :

Parmesan Lamb Cutlet
1. Dip the cutlet in flour (shake off the excess) and egg, coat in the mixture of breadcrumb and shredded parmesan.
2. Arrange the cutlets in a single layer on a plate, cover and chill for at least 30 mins.
3. Preheat the oven to 180 degree with fan.
4. Grill the cutlets in the oven for 12 - 15 mins. Turn it over after 10 mins.
(Since the cutlet is coated with the mixture, even grilling the texture is still very soften and juicy)

Green Bean Salad
1. Cook the green beans in boiling water with salt for 2 - 3 mins.
2. Afterwards, transfer the beans immediately to ice-water bowl and chill
3. Cut a small red onion in thin slice
4. Blend 1 small garlic clove, 3 pieces of lemon skin, 2 tbs of fresh lemon juice, 3 tbs of extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tbs of sugar, pinch of coarse salt and pepper
(After blending, the sauce looks like a creamy puree but it is very healthy)
5. Combine the green beans, red onion and the sauce mixture when serving

英式Scone

經過一次不是太成功的經驗, 雖然太太都覺得口感及味道唔錯, 看似在香港吃到的KFC鬆餅 (比較大了一點...) 估唔到第二次就可以成功做到好似一些高級酒店裡所吃到的英式Scone作為我倆星期六的Afternoon Tea.

其實, 在澳洲很多Cafe都可以買到所謂的Scone, 但實質上,它的口感卻比較像一般的麵包, 我就覺得根本談不上做Scone, 可能他們原意就不是要做那些英式的Scone吧!?
