Spinach Pie Tee with Whipped Boursin and Onion Cream
I love having people over for dinner, but unfortunately I tend to overdo it a little (a lot if you ask other people but this is just between us). In order to have something for people to munch on when they come through the door, I always make some kind of canapés for my guests. This is probably my favourite, which is a bit of a double edged sword because only about half of them make it out of the kitchen.
Duck with Hoisin, Five Spice and Peanut
Duck Pancakes have always been one of my favourite dishes to order whenever I go out to eat, and this tribute to the dish was made to see if I could make it into a more Fine Dining style.
Scallop with Blueberry and Lime
This dish has gone through a few iterations, starting as an assignment back when I was studying in college. A rich buttery sauce, acidity from the blueberries and that beautiful citrus punch work together with the delicious scallop.
Leek and Potato Soup
This is the perfect Feel Good Food for when you’re under the weather. A dish I made for my Girlfriend when she was sick with the flu.
Braised Shortib with Buttermilk Potatoes
Watching Burnt and there was a scene that had shortrib served in a little jar, and that inspired this dish. Rich mashed potatoes, slow cooked beef, the ultimate comfort food in a glass.
Smoked Goats Cheese with Beetroot and White Peach
A dish that was extremely popular during my time at House Limerick was the Goats Cheese Salad, to the point where I could have 11 or 12 on order at once during busy nights, but despite how busy it was, it is still one of my favourite places I have ever worked, I learned an incredible amount there, and this dish reflects the evolution of my cooking that occurred in that kitchen.
