5 ways to jazz up the Sunday roast

Bring the fancy to your next family get-together with tips from Aldi Australia ambassador JAMES VILE, head chef at Bowral’s famed Biota Dining

Use variety of seasonal Aussie vegetables, cooked in different ways, to complement the main meal rather than simply roasting all of them. For example, try smoking, cooking in clay or fermenting.

2Make a garlic paste by cooking whole cloves slowly in oil and then pureeing them without the skin until a paste forms. James Vile

3Use seasonal herbs or their flowers cooked in burnt butter, and dress meat with this after it’s sliced.

4Go for a shared-plate option when serving cold and hot dishes – it’s all about sharing and giving!

5Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over roasted meat. It’s an amazing flavour-enhancer!
