Welcome to our 10 Of the Best series, where we explore our top 10 legendary dishes that all start with quality meat from Specialty Foods. Up next we have Slow Cooked Beef Cheeks and Kara-age Chicken!
Slow Cooked Beef Cheeks with Shiitake Mushrooms
Synonymous with being an affordable, hearty meal for the Winter months, slow cooked beef cheeks in luscious red wine sauce can be reimagined for any season.
If you fancy a shake up to your regular slow cooker beef, give this recipe from Shannon Bennet a go.
Kara-age Chicken
Meaning “empty fry” or “naked fry”, Kara-age Chicken has all of the crunch with none of the eggy batter! Served with Japanese mayonnaise and a lemon wedge, this crispy little number can be eaten as a simple side dish or a tasty main. Use our free-range chicken thighs for best results!
