sounds funny eating Thai lamb shanks as we are so used to eating them the traditional way – cooking in a good red wine - but try this recipe you will be shocked to see how nice it is. “enjoy”

This is such a simple dish to make and can look great on a plate – this dish is inspired by my ex-wife…as she is of Portuguese decent this dish can be changed slightly by adding about 1 tsp of good Peri Peri oil- this gives it a sutler bite if u like the hot-stuff then add more to your personal tastes.

There is another recipe that is dedicated to her which i used to make and i post it soon keep and eye for Portuguese Peri Peri livers with a Coriander & Mint yogurt

This dish  made often @ Zest Restaurant – i learnt how to become a good & patent chef from my Executive chef at the time Jason Black – i had just finished a trip across Africa and Jason took me under his wing- He was a great person to work & learn from

This Liver pate recipe is very rich. It is time consuming and needs a little effort but the end result is out of this world. Baked chicken liver pate is great as a starter served on brochette or a Crostini- keep in your fridge for those mid afternoon snacks. You can also put it in plastic wrap and put it in the freezer- when you are cooking a fillet of beef u can take it out cut a slice and lay it on top ( like butter) before you serve it-
