00:00I
00:30One of my closest friends, Katrina, showed me this amazing recipe.
00:37It's kind of like a parmigiana but not because I'm going to make some schnitzels and then
00:43place them in a rich tomato sauce with some peas.
00:47Now to start with, we need to get the sauce on.
00:49So what I'm doing is just finely chopping some onions, so just one whole brown onion
00:54for this.
00:55I've got a large saute pan on, I've just been heating it up and I'm going to add
00:59a little bit of olive oil now.
01:01I say a little bit but when Katrina does this, she adds a lot of olive oil.
01:05She adds at least two tablespoons because this is part of the sauce.
01:10So heat that up over a medium heat and then in with our onions and we'll allow them to
01:15start frying.
01:16At this stage, I'll also add two bay leaves and two cloves of garlic.
01:21I'm just going to bruise and then finely slice, perfect.
01:26And that can also go in with two anchovies.
01:29Now it's not going to make it fishy at all.
01:32What it's going to do is give it a savouriness and a saltiness that really makes this sauce
01:38stand out.
01:39To help these soften, I'm also going to add a good pinch of salt.
01:43While these onions are cooking, I am going to keep an eye on them.
01:46I can get on with the schnitzels or she likes to call them scallopinis.
01:51Scallopinis, just thin pieces of meat.
01:54I'm using some steak here.
01:55Now this is just sirloin steak that I've cut really thin.
02:00At this stage, I think that this is a little bit too thick.
02:03I want to make it as thin as possible for this recipe.
02:07So I use two pieces of baking paper and the first one, I'm going to line the board.
02:15Then I'm going to get my pieces of steak and just line them up, giving them a little bit
02:21of room between each steak.
02:23I'll get another piece of glad bake now and place it on top.
02:30And then with a meat mallet, pound out the meat to get it as thin as possible.
02:35Now the glad bake is going to act as a barrier.
02:38So I don't bruise the meat too much where it breaks up.
02:42So use the glad bake for this and then give it a good bash.
02:55All right.
02:56Just by flattening the meat, you can see how big our scallopinis have become now.
03:03I'm sure it looked like a little steak but now we've got a huge portion there.
03:07Now I'm just going to place them back on the board for now because I will crumb them a little
03:12later once the sauce is cooked.
03:14Now these onions are looking fantastic now.
03:17I'm going to deglaze the pan with a little bit of white wine.
03:23And now I'm going to add the tomatoes.
03:25So two cans of chopped tomatoes.
03:28You can also use whole peeled tomatoes.
03:31And I'll give that another mix.
03:32Oh, that smells pretty good.
03:35And I'm going to add a little bit more salt at this stage with a good crack of pepper.
03:43And I'm going to add some baby peas.
03:45You don't need to defrost them at all.
03:47Give them a mix.
03:48And then we allow this to cook away for about 15 minutes or until this sauce is thick and
03:54rich.
03:55Once that's happened, we can get on to the crumbing of these scallopinis.
04:09Now my sauce is ready.
04:10Have a look at this.
04:11It's thick.
04:13Those peas have cooked down nicely.
04:14I've got a big handful of basil and I'm just going to tear the basil in.
04:18Don't worry about chopping it.
04:20I'm going to give this one last stir.
04:23And you can see it's still hot.
04:24I have turned the heat off now.
04:27And the lid can go back on.
04:30And we can just let it rest there while we get on to our scallopinis or schnitzels if you
04:35like.
04:36I've made a little production line here.
04:39Flour first.
04:40Some eggs with a little bit of water.
04:42I'm going to add some salt to our eggs just to season this.
04:47You can either add the salt to the eggs or the flour.
04:49It doesn't really matter.
04:50And then with a fork, break the eggs and give them a really good whisk, combining those yolks
04:56with the whites.
04:58And then the last stage is the breadcrumbs.
05:00Now, I've got fresh breadcrumbs here.
05:02This is two-day-old sourdough.
05:05And I've taken off the crust and blitzed it in a food processor.
05:08So, we've got this really nice soft crumb.
05:11Now, to make this extra golden brown and for some extra flavour, some parmesan.
05:17This is also going to act as a glue so the breadcrumbs stick nicely to our beef scallopinis.
05:25And now we can start crumbing.
05:27So I'm going to flour it first.
05:31Coat the meat but ensure that you really shake off the excess flour.
05:35If there's too much flour on this, then we're going to get a gummy finish and we don't want
05:39that.
05:40We want it to be really, really crispy.
05:42Now this goes into the egg mixture, drain the excess off and then finally into the breadcrumbs.
05:50Now I've been heating up some olive oil in a pan over here.
05:54I'm going to lower these into the pan.
05:56Now I'm going to cook this for about one minute on each side or until they're golden brown.
06:05Now my last two schnitzels are ready, so it's time to plate up.
06:25So with the first two schnitzels that I've cooked, I'm going to place them into the sauce.
06:29So the idea of this recipe is to have one side really crispy and then the other side
06:35a little bit soft and quite tomatoey.
06:38So the last two schnitzels can come directly out of the pan and then into the sauce.
06:44Now I would serve this with some roasted potatoes, absolutely beautiful, some mashed potatoes.
06:50Or you know what, you could just serve this with a nice green salad and you can see you
06:55get quite a lot out of one schnitzel there.
06:58You can serve that with some of that delicious sauce on the side and it's underneath there
07:04too and the peas which gives it a really nice burst of sweetness.
07:11Mmm.
07:12Mmm.
07:13As Katrina would say, delicioso.
07:28Joining me today is Guillaume Brahimi.
07:30He is a fabulous chef.
07:32He has one of my favourite fine dining restaurants in Sydney called Guillaume in Paddington is
07:38to die for.
07:39Everyone has to go there.
07:40And that is quite fine dining.
07:41But today you're going to show me a recipe that's true to your heart, Moule marinier.
07:45That's great, Justine.
07:46Thanks for having me.
07:47Oh, I love when you come on the show.
07:49This is my favourite Saturday, Sunday lunch.
07:53You go to the market, buy the muscle, have friends over, it takes five minutes and you're
07:59going to have some very happy people around.
08:02Five minutes.
08:03That's incredible.
08:04So, talk to me first about muscles.
08:07What are we looking for?
08:08Okay.
08:09Firstly, very simple.
08:10It smells beautiful.
08:12It's fresh.
08:13Okay?
08:14It smells like the ocean.
08:15It smells like the ocean.
08:16If it doesn't, there's a big problem.
08:18Don't use it.
08:19Absolutely.
08:20Okay?
08:21And after that you see how they're fresh, how they're close.
08:22It's, you know, you can tell how fresh they are.
08:25Very important, you take the beer off because you don't want that.
08:28Just nicely, they come.
08:29All right, let's get started.
08:30What's going in today?
08:31Okay.
08:32So, very simple.
08:33Like I said, five minutes.
08:34It takes a little bit longer when I talk, but here we go.
08:38Some shallots.
08:39That's my favourite type of cooking though.
08:40In the kitchen with a glass of wine, cooking around the stove top.
08:45And everybody's around.
08:46You know, like my parents, I remember my grandmother saying, I bought some muscle.
08:50Everybody's there.
08:51It's one o'clock in the afternoon and she's cooking the muscle and you see everybody's
08:55face waiting for it.
08:57Amazing.
08:58Okay.
08:59That's enough.
09:00Got some heat in it.
09:01Mm-hmm.
09:02Be careful, you don't want to burn the butter.
09:03Mm-hmm.
09:04Okay, so it's nice.
09:05Yep.
09:06And you don't want to burn the shallots.
09:07And one thing that's so important, if you burn something, it doesn't matter if you take
09:1010 hours to cook, you will still have the burnt flavour.
09:13So, start again.
09:15Don't try to hide it.
09:16We're going to leave them for a couple of minutes like that.
09:19In the meantime, because there is not such a thing as French food without la baguette.
09:24Kind of without it.
09:25And we've got some beautiful baguette.
09:27And do you need the bread with that dish?
09:30Not really, but I love it.
09:32So, I'm going to put some in.
09:33Okay, let's keep focusing.
09:35Yes.
09:36My shallots are beautiful.
09:37And here we go.
09:38So, when we've put the mussels in, they don't take long to cook.
09:41But how do we know they're cooked?
09:42Very simple.
09:43They're open.
09:44If they're not open, they're not cooked.
09:46So, here we go.
09:47I've got my mussels.
09:48I put my white wine.
09:50Okay.
09:51Just a touch of salt.
09:52Not too much.
09:53Remember, the mussels come from the sea.
09:54There's plenty of salt in the sea.
09:56But I just want to put a touch.
09:57What are these mussels called?
09:59What's this variety?
10:00Bouchon.
10:01Bouchon.
10:02Yeah.
10:03And Austria is getting very, very, very good with mussels.
10:05We are very privileged.
10:06We are indeed.
10:07Okay.
10:08Done.
10:09I put my lid.
10:10Yep.
10:11Few minutes like that.
10:12In the meantime, I'm going to finish my crouton.
10:15Okay.
10:16A little bit of olive oil?
10:17Yeah.
10:18Just, you know, why not?
10:19Why not?
10:20We've put the butter on it.
10:21No, do you know what?
10:22People keep saying to me, I only use butter and cream.
10:23I say, no, look.
10:24I'm putting a little bit of olive oil.
10:26Here we go.
10:27And I've got my grill here.
10:29And when you char grill the bread, we're going to get that nice smokiness.
10:32That's right.
10:33That's right.
10:34And everything works together, you know.
10:36Yeah.
10:37And when that's cooking, I'm going to chop my parsley.
10:40Sure.
10:41Roughly.
10:42This is home cooking.
10:43This is all about fern.
10:44Absolutely.
10:45Should we check a mussel?
10:46Yes, please.
10:47Tell me about the pot you use when you're cooking mussels at home.
10:49Okay.
10:50There is a great thing about cooking, and it's about common sense.
10:52You want as much flat as possible to give the same amount of heat to your mussels.
10:58Absolutely.
10:59So they all cook at the same time.
11:00And look at that.
11:01Oh.
11:02Look at that.
11:03Yum.
11:04Let's be careful with my baguette because we don't want to burn them.
11:06And look at that.
11:07Oh, it looks good.
11:08Just nicely coloured.
11:09Oh, yum.
11:10And look at that.
11:11They're ready.
11:12But what we need to do, we need to be quick by putting a creme fraiche.
11:15Okay.
11:16Chef.
11:17I know.
11:18That's a lot of cream.
11:19This is what it's all about.
11:20Yeah.
11:21Okay.
11:22Don't try to say, worry about it tomorrow.
11:25Absolutely.
11:26So I'm just going to leave it like that.
11:28I'm going to put the lid on.
11:29Beautiful.
11:30And I'm going to leave the creme fraiche to dissolve for one minute.
11:33Great.
11:50Okay.
11:51So all you're doing now, the best part of it, before eating them, it's pour this beautiful
11:58Oh, yes.
11:59There we go.
12:00That is just so beautiful.
12:02And I wish you could smell through the television because this is one of my favourite smells.
12:08Cream and white wine and echelots together.
12:10And the mussels.
12:11And now, Justine, I'm going to show you how we eat mussels.
12:15I'm sure you know, but for all her friends, I just want to, it's a very simple one.
12:19So the first thing is you need to get one.
12:21Mm-hmm.
12:22And you eat it.
12:23Oh, how lucky.
12:24I've got two.
12:25Well, somebody's going to miss out.
12:27Mm.
12:28And I pick a small one at the reason for it.
12:31Very simple.
12:32Mm-hmm.
12:33Like that.
12:34Mm.
12:35As a little pick.
12:36That's the way to do it.
12:38Give this one.
12:39And.
12:40Mm-hmm.
12:41Crunchy bread.
12:44I'm in heaven right now.
12:46Mussels.
12:47Guillaume cooking for me.
12:48It doesn't get much better than this.
12:50Let's share.
12:51Let's share these.
12:52Usually I don't like sharing.
12:53Justine, it's all about the produce.
12:54Great mussels.
12:55Great cream.
12:56Good baguette.
12:57Happy days.
12:58That's all you need.
12:59Guillaume said it.
13:03Who would have thought that Tasmania would be the ideal place to grow berries?
13:13The crisp, clean air and fertile soil suits berries perfectly.
13:18Tassie's cool climate also means there are less bugs and pests, which means that raspberries
13:24can happily grow here for six months of the year.
13:28A simple roast chook is so satisfying to cook and to eat.
13:35Not just on a Sunday night, but any night.
13:37And the basic rules when cooking a whole roast chook is to one, bring the chicken out
13:42of the fridge to room temperature.
13:44So that'll take about 40 minutes.
13:47Second, preheat your oven to 190 degrees.
13:50And I like to pat the chicken dry so there's not too much moisture.
13:55Now for some flavouring to make this chicken extra special.
13:58And it's a combination of four ingredients.
14:01Butter, tarragon, which has a really nice aniseed flavour.
14:05And to accentuate that, I love to add perno or pastis.
14:09Just a small amount.
14:11And some fresh lemon zest.
14:13So strong, bold flavours going with mellow butter works perfectly with a whole chicken.
14:20Now just get a spoon and mix all of this together just by pressing it down.
14:26And you can even get your hands in here.
14:30And now for the chicken.
14:31Now I like to put this under the skin.
14:33So turn the chicken down so you've got the breast side facing you.
14:37And then just slowly tease away the skin.
14:39Now it doesn't look that attractive, but it's worth it because what the butter is going to do
14:44is flavour the chicken breast because chicken breast can sometimes be a little bit dry.
14:49This makes it super moist.
14:51Right.
14:52Now that that's done, we're going to get this butter and I'm going to stuff that underneath the skin.
14:58And you just want a few small handfuls of that.
15:01And now just press and evenly distribute that butter underneath the skin.
15:07You can add a little bit more butter to the inside.
15:10Now the chicken goes onto the tray.
15:13Seasoning is always important.
15:15So a good sprinkle of salt on top.
15:18And I like a crack of pepper.
15:20And this goes into the oven 190 degrees for about one hour.
15:26Then allow it to rest and carve it.
15:28Simple as that.
15:29Apart from a roast chicken tasting so amazing, the whole house will smell beautiful.
15:53That for me is one of my favourite meals of all time.
15:56Roast chook.
15:57Yummy.
15:59I'm going to share with you a cake that's from my first cookbook dinner with Justine.
16:04This is a banana and macadamia cake.
16:07A little bit different to a traditional banana cake.
16:10The bananas are going to go on the top.
16:12Now to start with, just like any other cake, I'm going to cream some butter and some sugar together.
16:18Now the butter has softened a little bit.
16:21This is just going to make it much easier to whip.
16:23So in with the butter and sugar.
16:26And I'm using a paddle but by all means you can use a whisk.
16:30And I'll just lower that.
16:32So I'm going to start on a medium speed and then I'll increase it once the sugar starts to incorporate.
16:38Then I'm going to add one egg at a time.
16:41And each time I add an egg I'm going to give it a good mix to make sure that the egg is incorporated well.
16:47Now that I've incorporated the eggs, you can see that the mix will start to curdle a little bit.
17:08Don't worry, that's completely fine.
17:11And now we can add the nut meal.
17:13This is macadamia meal.
17:15And what I've done is placed some whole macadamias into a food processor and blitz it three or four times.
17:21Now you can see the cakes coming together nicely there.
17:24So let's add a few more ingredients.
17:26A little bit of vanilla.
17:28About a teaspoon.
17:29A good amount of cinnamon.
17:31And I like to reserve just a little bit for the topping later on.
17:35And for some rising agents, a little bit of baking powder.
17:39And there's not much flour in this cake at all because it's a nut-based cake.
17:44So two tablespoons of self-raising flour.
17:47And that's all that's in the cake at this stage.
17:50So I'm going to turn the mixer off.
17:52I'm going to take that paddle out.
17:54And I've preheated my oven to 180 degrees.
17:59So a moderate oven for this cake.
18:02I have lined a springform tin with some baking paper on the base and around the collar.
18:08That's just going to make the cake come out nice and easily.
18:10And I'm just going to pour this cake in.
18:14And now this is going to go into the oven for about 45 minutes.
18:18Or until a skewer that's poked in the centre comes out clean.
18:22So spread it out nice and evenly.
18:24And in it goes.
18:29Now my wonderful macadamia cake has come out of the oven.
18:38And I'm just preparing the topping which is the bananas.
18:42Allow your cake to cool because it is so moist.
18:45It does just need to settle down a bit.
18:48Now I'm using bananas today but this is equally as delicious with some stone fruit in the summertime.
18:54It's also really nice with pears.
18:57So I really am a big lover of cakes that have fruit and nut in it.
19:01Because I always find it not as rich and heavy.
19:04And it means you can have more cake.
19:06So now I'm going to take the cake out of the springform tin.
19:11And you can see that extra assurance with the baking paper makes it so easy to come off.
19:17And then with a palette knife I'm just going to tease it off the base there.
19:23And take off that baking paper.
19:26And then pop it onto a rack or you can put onto a plate.
19:30And now I'm going to arrange the bananas.
19:33I'm not going to make it look pretty.
19:35I think it looks better when you just put the bananas on quite organically.
19:40And just a sprinkle of coconut blossom sugar.
19:44And then, this is the fun part, I'm going to use a blow torch to caramelise the bananas.
19:50Now if you don't have a blow torch you can still do this.
19:53What I would recommend is placing the bananas onto a baking tray.
19:57Sprinkle with the sugar and just place it under a hot grill for about 30 seconds or until they're caramelised.
20:04You still get the same effect and you just place them onto the cake afterwards.
20:09The last thing I'm going to add to this cake is a little bit of passion fruit for some sweetness and some slight tartness.
20:16So I'll cut them in half.
20:18It also looks really great too.
20:21And just squeeze over the pulp at the very last minute.
20:25If you put it on too early it can go a little bit soggy.
20:28See how good those colours look together.
20:31Now you could serve this cake with a little bit of custard, creme anglaise,
20:35or you can keep it very simple with a dollop of yoghurt.
20:39to take a look.
20:46So I'm out of the way.
20:48We'll see you later.
20:49We'll be back.
20:50We'll be back.
20:51We'll be back.
20:52Bye.
20:53We'll be back.
20:55Bye.
20:56Bye.
20:58Bye.
20:59Bye.
