I think we all did quite good wif lamb! I am born in the year of the goat.. and i am cooking my comrades...YEAH!!!
Okay, I think most difficult part of cooking lamb this week is the doneness - a.k.a medium...
well, here some tips...
1) Dont touch the meat too much during frenching for the meat is easiy tear out, the juicy easily flow out, and then we are out!!
2) the rack bones should be really clean... hence technique is important...
3) rack bones should wrap wif foil if to be finish in oven
4) unwrap for presentation (college requirement)
5) for medium, the temperature shld be arnd 65 degrees celcius (invest in thermometer)
6) After panfry, Rest the meat before finish oven for at least 5 mins... rest your meat before cutting the meat for at least 1 min.(this can avoid blooding the plate)
7) ALL RED meat should have sauce at least 2 soupspoon full.
