Authentic Italian

Spicy Vongole Sautéed in White Wine with Grilled Crostini
SERVES 4
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
125g (3/4 cup) cherry tomatoes, halved
1 chilli, thinly sliced
1-2 Tbs finely chopped flat-leaf parsley stalks
1kg vongole (clams), rinsed in cold water to remove grit
150ml dry white wine
4 slices of sourdough salt flakes
1–2 Tbs finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium–high heat. Add the garlic, tomatoes, chilli and parsley stalks and stir for 20–30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the vongole and wine and allow the alcohol to bubble away for 1–2 minutes, then cover with the lid and allow the steam to open the vongole (this will take about 4–5 minutes).
In the meantime, grill the sourdough to your liking. (I love it a bit on the charred side.)
Once all the shells have opened, remove the pan from the heat. Discard any broken or unopened shells.
Tip the vongole and poaching liquid into a large sharing bowl and season to taste, if needed. Scatter the parsley leaves on top and serve hot with the grilled sourdough.
Spaghetti All’ Assassina
SERVES 4
400g Spaghetti
2 red hot chilli peppers thinly sliced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
2 Tbs tomato paste
500g tomato passata
Salt and Pepper for seasoning
75ml Extra virgin olive oil plus more for drizzling on top, if liked
Learn how to cook this dish live in the NEFF Cooking Theatre. See page 6 for session details.
Put 1L of water and the tomato paste into a medium pot and bring to the boil. Cook for 10 minutes over medium heat, then set aside.
Heat up the extra virgin olive oil in a cast iron or stainless steel large pan, then add the garlic and the chillies, cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the tomato passata, season with salt and pepper and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring to reduce the sauce slightly. Add the spaghetti in one layer into the pan, coat with the sauce and cook, undisturbed for about 3 minutes to help caramelize the pasta. Use a spatula to roll your pasta over to start cooking the other side.
Start adding the tomato water into the pan, 1-2 ladlefuls at a time but try to not move the pasta around too much. Keep adding the tomato water to the pan like you would add stock to risotto. Only stir very gently and occasionally. It will look like the pasta is sticking, and that’s what you want. Keep doing this for 8-9 minutes or until the pasta is al dente and most of the tomato water has been absorbed. Taste for seasoning and adjust to taste. Serve into bowls with an extra. Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if liked. Eat straight away!
INATI Style

Oyster Mushrooms Fritters
200-300g oyster mushrooms
100g GF flour (plus extra for dusting)
1 can of cider
Hand full of herbs (parsley, fennel tarragon)
Mushroom ketchup (recipe below)
100g buckwheat
100ml whey
50g honey
First cook your mushrooms, we vacuum seal these with some olive oil and thyme and seasoning and cook at 85°C for 15min, or you can simply cook them in the oven turning them and basting as you go till tender and cool.
Make your batter, mix the flour and cider till you get a thin batter consistency.
Finely chop the herbs and add them to the dusting flour set aside.
Toast off your buckwheat.
Burn your honey, place in a small pan bring to the boil and keep watching until the colour changes. Do not walk away.
Whey is the residue from straining yoghurt or soft cheese like ricotta. Slowly reduce till you reach the desired flavour.
To build the dish, dust the mushrooms in the herby flour and then your batter making sure you remove the excess batter, and place in the fryer.
When golden brown, place on kitchen paper to drain the excess grease, brush with whey, and burnt honey, drizzle with mushroom ketchup and sprinkle with toasted buckwheat and garnish with fennel.

Add Worcestershire sauce and tabasco season to taste.
TO MAKE THE CASES
Filo pastry
Clarified butter

Place in a small tart case and cook in the oven at 160°C for 14 minutes.
POLENTA FOAM

800ml vegetable stock to be added in 2 parts
4g salt
80g butter

Bring half the stock to the boil, add butter and salt. Add polenta and whisk constantly for 2-3min. Add cheese. Pour on to a shallow tray to cool down.
Add the cold stock and chilled polenta to a blender and blend till smooth then pass through a sieve to remove any lumps. Place the polenta into a piping bag.
To build, place the tomato mix in the bottom of the tart shell and place some pickled rhubarb on top, then place your polenta foam on and finish with puffed rice or pine nuts.

New Caledonian Creations
Discover new recipes from foodie favourite Annabelle White, with a New Caledonian twist!
Noumea Sauce au Chien
This was the most delicious accompaniment to a meal enjoyed at Au P”tit Cafe in Noumea with a delicious burger and cassava chips - it makes a good amount and a great gift for friends and family. Super with sausages, roasted potatoes and chicken. Keep in the fridge.
250g carrot, finely chopped
1kg onions, chopped
1kg apple, chopped (no need to peel just remove core)
250ml olive oil
500ml orange juice
250ml soy sauce
One piece of preserved lemon
500g prunes
15g ground ginger ( half a 30g packet)
50g garlic
115ml balsamic vinegar
250ml white vinegar
200g tomato paste
8 cloves
2 Kaffir lime leaves
Honey to taste (minimum 3 Tbsp recommend 6 Tbsp) Salt and pepper to taste
Place the first 3 ingredients in a large pot and cook in the olive oil till soft - do not rush this, allow a good 15 minutes on low heat. Then add all the remaining ingredients except 100ml of the orange juice (reserve to add at the end).
Cook on a very low heat, stirring and watching it for another 15 minutes. Due to the honey and prunes, it can catch if the heat is too high, but on a low heat and stirring it works well.
After 15 mins turn off the heat and add the orange juice check seasoning and blitz with your hand blender, place covered in the fridge.
COOK’S NOTE:
The original recipe did have 25g ground ginger - so if you love ginger feel free to add a little more!

Fish Tagine
I adore fish cooked all ways but sometimes it’s great to have a recipe that doesn’t require standing over a hot frypan. Use any firm white fish such as monkfish or hāpuku.
SERVES 4
MARINADE
2 Tbsp olive oil
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp ground cumin
1 lemon, juiced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp salt
600g firm white fish fillets
TAGINE
2 Tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 red onion, sliced
1 red capsicum, seeded and sliced
1 yellow capsicum, seeded and sliced
1 x 400g can chopped tomatoes
500g kumara, peeled and cubed
½ cup fish stock
100g green olives
1tsp salt
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 cup coriander leaves
lemon for garnish
Lamb & Yoghurt Pie
This recipe was inspired by a trip to Santorini in Greece a few years ago. A wonderful combination of flavours and a lighter version of a traditional Kiwi pie.
SERVES 8
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 medium onions, finely chopped
6 cloves garlic, crushed 1kg lamb mince
2 tsp ground cinnamon
3 Tbsp tomato paste
2 lemons, grated zest and juice
2 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 cup finely chopped parsley
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
70g toasted pine nuts
12 sheets filo pastry
100g clarified butter, or ghee
Combine the marinade ingredients in a mortar and pestle or mini processor. Massage into the fish fillets. Chill for 1 hour.
TAGINE
In a casserole or pan with a lid, heat olive oil and sauté garlic and red onion. Add capsicums, tomatoes, kumara, stock and cover. Simmer gently for 5–6 minutes until the kumara is tender.
Bury the fish fillets into the vegetable mix, add olives, salt and pepper, cover and gently cook until fish is cooked through — approximately 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish. Sprinkle over coriander and serve with lemon cheeks.
COOK’S NOTE:
If you don’t have time to rest the fish in the spice rub, just proceed without the resting time. The result will still be good and the dish will be done in 20 minutes.
500g unsweetened Greek yoghurt
Heat oil in a large frypan, add onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add lamb and brown thoroughly, breaking up clumps as it cooks with a wooden spoon.
Add cinnamon, tomato paste, lemon, salt and pepper, and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add parsley, breadcrumbs and pine nuts and set aside to cool.
Preheat oven to 180ºC. Remove filo pastry from packet and count out 12 sheets. Place pastry on bench and cover with a barely damp tea towel. Brush one sheet of filo pastry lightly with the butter.
Place another layer of pastry on top, brushing with butter as you go, and repeat until you have six sheets.
Grease shallow tin and line base and sides with the first six sheets of pastry. Fill with half the lamb mixture. Spread with yoghurt and top with remaining lamb.
Brush remaining sheets with butter and scrunch individually and place on top of the pie to completely cover.
Bake for 40 minutes.
COOK’S NOTE:
Can be made ahead of time and reheated but best eaten on the day it is made.
To clarify butter easily, melt in microwave and let it settle. When cool, refrigerate until it sets. The clarified butter will have hardened on the top leaving the butter milk liquid on the bottom. Remove the clarified butter and discard the liquid.
My preferred New Zealand brand of filo pastry is Timo’s.

Cheats Ice Cream Sponge Terrine
Slice and serve and tell everyone it took you hours to make! I love having a frozen dessert in the freezer on standby. This is one to make when you are short of time. Take the ice cream out of the freezer 20 minutes before you go to make the terrine and then sit back and claim all the glory.
SERVES 8
1 small rectangular trifle sponge
⅓ cup raspberry jam
750ml strawberry ice cream, softened
750ml vanilla ice cream, softened
Grease/spray a loaf tin, and line with cling film.
Trim the brown top and bottom from the sponge and slice through horizontally to give you two 1.5cm thick slices. Cut two rectangles to fit the middle and top of your loaf tin and spread each piece liberally with raspberry jam.
Spread the softened vanilla ice cream as evenly as possible in the base of the loaf tin. Place a slice of sponge jam-side down onto the ice cream.
COOK’S NOTE:
Will keep in the freezer for up to 4 weeks well sealed. Feel free to substitute your favourite ice cream flavours.
Spread the softened strawberry ice cream on top of the sponge and top with final sponge layer, jam-side down again.
Cover with cling film and freeze at least 4 hours.
Before serving, dunk the outside of tin carefully in hot water very briefly and turn out onto serving platter using the cling film to help ease it out.
Garnish with your choice of diced Turkish delight, fresh berries, dried raspberry powder, shredded basil, edible flowers or toasted sliced almonds.
