creamy horseradish sauce
To make the creamy horseradish sauce, place the horseradish, sour cream, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside. Place the sweet potato, 2 eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix well to combine. Heat 1cm oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook ¼ cups of the sweet potato mixture for 2−3 minutes each side or until golden and crispy. Drain on absorbent paper and keep warm. Heat a few centimetres of water in a deep frying pan over low heat until just simmering. Add the vinegar and use a wooden spoon to create a whirlpool. Crack each egg into a bowl and slip into the water. Poach the eggs for 3−4 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon and drain well. Top the hash browns with the asparagus and eggs and spoon over the creamy horseradish sauce to serve. Serves 4. |

Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place the marmalade, mustard, whisky and salt in a saucepan over high heat and whisk to combine. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to low and cook for 5–7 minutes or until thickened slightly. Strain and set aside. Use a small, sharp knife to score the ham in a diamond pattern and cover the hock with aluminium foil (this will prevent it from burning). Place the ham on a lightly greased wire rack in a baking dish lined with non-stick baking paper. Push a clove into each diamond and brush ham with the glaze. Roast for 35–40 minutes, brushing with the glaze every 10 minutes, or until the ham is golden and caramelised. Serves 8–10. + Use your fingers to gently remove the skin from the ham, before using a knife to trim any excess fat. |

Preheat oven to 200ºC (390ºF). Carefully remove the skin from the ham, leaving a little skin on the knuckle. Use the point of a sharp knife to score a criss-cross pattern into the fat, making sure not to cut all the way through. Place in a baking dish lined with non-stick baking paper. Cover the knuckle with baking paper to prevent burning and secure with kitchen string. Combine the sugar, vinegar and mixed spice and brush over the ham. Place the cloves in the centre of each diamond. Roast for 35 minutes, brushing with glaze at 10-minute intervals. Serves 12–15. |

Drizzle the bottom of a sheet pan with 1 Tbs of olive oil. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper on top. Lay the tomato slices on the pan. Drizzle the remaining olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme.

Pulse to combine. Add the diced and cold butter and pulse until the butter is cut into the flour into pea size pieces. Add the ice water and pulse until the dough comes together.

Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour. Dust your surface with superfine brown rice flour. Roll the dough to 1/8" thickness. Fill a 9" tart mold with the dough. Cut off excess dough.
