TIPS

VIEW TIP

For a fresh, summery roast, a rub of coarse salt, thyme, rosemary, coriander and sage comes together in a snap. Turn up the heat with cayenne pepper, garam masala or harissa paste.

VIEW TIP

Piercing the skin of your chicken, turkey or duck before marinating will help them to absorb the marinade. In general, two hours is long enough to mop up all that deliciousness. Or freeze, and the flavours will intensify.

VIEW TIP

Always rub your chicken or duck with a little olive oil first and cook on a medium heat in a teaspoon of oil. When roasting, use your thermometer in the thickest parts of the cut. It should be 73–75°C.

VIEW TIP

It’s important to prep your pan. Heat a pan over medium-high heat. When it is quite hot, add a knob of butter. When the butter starts to bubble, the pan is hot enough.
