    This recipe is from Allyson’s recipe book: Cook, by Allyson Gofton.

    Allyson’s Tips: Toast coriander seeds in a hot frying pan, shaking regularly until they darken in colour and become fragrant. Once toasted transfer to a plate to arrest further cooking and potential burning.

    Some new flavours mixed into an old favourite.

    Ruby's tip: Making burger mixtures the night before cooking ensures a better flavour, as the spices and herbs have time to mellow together.

    Lamb rump, fillet, rack or leg steaks can be used in place of the shortloin The rice can be prepared ahead of time, pressed into timbale moulds or similar and reheated using a steamer, microwave or in a slow oven on a baking tray covered with tinfoil to prevent the rice drying out The marinade can also be made ahead of time, and would be equally suited to beef as well as lamb.

  • Duck

     By Gameford Lodge - www.saveurduck.com

    If you have the time, you can marinate the duck legs in the red wine, thyme, bay leaf, garlic for a few hours before making the casserole.

    This is a rich & hearty meal - ideal for winter nights with friends. But it does take a little time, so be prepared for a late afternoon start in the kitchen!

  •  By Ruby

    People say duck is difficult to cook, not at all I say! I find it as easy as chicken and I'm no chef! So this is more a guide than a recipe, but follow this procedure and you'll constantly produce that perfect duck breast every time, family and friends will love you for it. Serve with kumara mash and wilted spinach for a complete meal.

    Don't forget foodies to send us your recipes we'd love to try them and will put them on the website for all Ruby's List readers to cook!

  •  By Ruby

    A classical French dish that is super easy and produces an amazing taste and texture. Kept in the fridge it will last a long time (providing you totally immerse the legs in the duck fat).

    Serves: 4

  • Venison

     By Graham Brown - www.cervena.com

    Ruby's tip - Make sure you don't over cook this cut as it's very lean and will tend to dry out if left too long.

    As with all meat resting is the key to tenderness and taste.
