garden cooking



recipe by demand :)

lemon thyme steak marinade


This weekend shows few new recipes since all cooking has been performed across the road by neighbour, Justin. Much meat grilled over charcoal along with a delicious 'kind of' paella with lamb chops, home made sausage and chicken breasts. Delicious.

I did, however, make a very nice steak marinade:

  • 600g rump steak
  • juice of a smallish lemon
  • 3 heaped tsp wholegrain mustard
  • 3 cloves of garlic, crushed with about a tsp of sea salt
  • about 1 tbs of fresh thyme leaves (Ruth picked mostly lemon thyme which worked very well)
  • big glug, maybe 2 tbs? extra virgin olive oil

Marinated the meat in these ingredients for about 5 or 6 hours then barbecued. No photo since that's a bit difficult whilst eating out lol :)
