3 Tips to Making a Spectacular Roast
Raise your roast to the next level with these fine tips on serving and presentation.
Carving the meat
The art of carving meat lies in the direction in which you cut it. The trick is to slice confidently through each layer in a consistent, even angle against the grain of the meat (the grain can be identified by the skinny fibers that run through the meat).

A perfect combination between the greasiness of duck, corn cream, honey and the elegant aroma of lavender flowers will definitely satisfy your diners.

Pairing the right sauces
Sour, fatty sauces like a béarnaise or a tangy chimichurri work perfectly with roast beef. You can even mix in some tomato purée to give your béarnaise a fruity touch. If you’re cooking lamb, remember to keep some mint sauce on hand to balance out the heaviness of the meat.

Matching with suitable sides
Having great side dishes adds polish to your meal. In this case, whether you’re cooking with beef, lamb or chicken, potatoes are a steadfast companion that almost always guarantee a happy outcome.

Your roasting tray should already contain a number of edibles; carrots, parsnips, broccoli and cauliflower are all great additions to the roast. Keep these tips in mind and you’ll be able to serve a mouth-watering roast that every customer will love.
