00:00My name's Joe, I'm the head chef at Salt Yard Restaurant and today I'm going to be doing

00:03chorizo picante with citrus yoghurt, baby gem and fresh English peas.

00:09Firstly, I'm going to start quarter the baby gem and we're going to take off the end, remove

00:16the outer leaves.

00:18Like I said, we're going to cut it into quarters, making sure that the stem in the bottom is

00:24still there, that holds it all together while we cook it.

00:29Next, we're going to do the citrus yoghurt.

00:36This is involving high fat content Greek yoghurt, orange, lemon, lime, zest and juice.

00:43You don't need a whole lime zest for each or lemon zest.

00:54Then we use the piece of the fruit, take some juice, squeeze it in.

01:01A piece of lemon and a piece of lime.

01:08And lastly, season with a bit of salt.

01:15And pepper.

01:16Give it a mix.

01:17Give it a mix.

01:18And lastly, season with a bit of salt and pepper.

01:25Give it a mix.

01:26And lastly, you need to split the chorizo lengthways.

01:32This is chorizo piccante.

01:33Which means it's quite hot and spicy.

01:34But it's a bit of spicy.

01:35It's a bit of spicy.

01:36It's a bit of spicy.

01:37It's a bit of spicy.

01:38It's a bit of spicy.

01:39And lastly, you need to split the chorizo lengthways.

01:41This is chorizo piccante, which means it's quite hot and spicy.

02:01But it's also a cooking chorizo, which means it's quite meaty and it's got a really lovely texture.

02:08Okay, so the final step here is to actually cook the chorizo and the baby gem.

02:14So what we're going to do is we're going to cook it on a griddle pan.

02:16Heat it up on a high heat until it's smoking.

02:18And then we're going to char-grill the chorizo for about three or four minutes on each side until it's nice and golden brown.

02:26And then once you flip it over the first time, then we're going to add the baby gem and cook the baby gem in the chorizo oil.

02:31So I'm going to add the chorizo in now.

02:33The chorizo are about ready now.

02:48It should be nicely bar marked on the outside.

02:52And at this stage now, this is when we're going to add the baby gem lettuce.

03:04And that is going to nicely cook in the chorizo oil, so we don't need to add any oil to it.

03:11And again, we just want to cook these on quite an intense heat to finish off the cooking process.

03:25Once we get to this stage, we're ready to plate up.

03:27We're going to start off first with the citrus yogurt in the center of the plate and use the back of the spoon to spread.

03:39And then on top of that, I'm going to add my peas that I previously blanched in boiling water and refreshed in iced water.

03:46We're going to serve them cold.

03:48Then our grilled baby gem that we've grilled in the chorizo oil in the same pan.

03:54First pieces.

04:04And the star of the show, the grilled chorizo.

04:15Just to finish off, I've got some fennel tops.

04:24And some extra virgin olive oil.

04:29There it is.

04:30Grilled chorizo, baby gem, peas and citrus yogurt.

04:34That's good.

04:35If you're not done.

04:36You can see it.

04:37Okay.

04:38Here we go.
