EASY MEAT FONDUE RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Prepare your sauces (see below) in advance, and put in little bowls around the fondue burner, along with the meat, bread and salad. Season the meat.
• When your guests are ready to eat, fill your fondue pan half-full of vegetable oil and heat on the hob until it’s hot, but not smoking. You’re aiming for around 190C, but if you haven’t got a thermometer, throw in a cube of bread – when it takes about 30 secs to brown, it’s ready.
• Put the fondue burner on the table carefully so that it’s stable, then, following the manufacturer’s instructions, light the flame and put the pan on top.
• Give each guest a fondue fork for dunking the meat in the hot oil. It should take 25-30 secs for rare, 30-35 secs for medium and 45-60 secs for well done. When the meat is cooked, dip it into the sauces, and pile it onto the bread. If you have some raw king prawns to cook in the fondue, they work really well too. CORRECTION NOTICE Please be informed that in the July issue of BBC Good Food Magazine, it incorrectly stated that the temperature of the oil in this recipe should be 375C, the correct temperature of the oil should be 375 Fahrenheit or 190C. Sauces Horseradish sauce Mix 1 tbsp grated horseradish with 3 tbsp sour cream, juice 1 lemon and a pinch each of salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Chill until serving. Chilli vinegar Mix 3 tbsp white wine vinegar with 2 tsp sugar, 1 garlic clove, grated, and 1 medium red chilli, finely chopped. Set aside until needed. Salsa verde Put handful each parsley, basil, mint, coriander and tarragon in a blender with 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil, 4 anchovies and 1 garlic clove, grated. Whizz together. Aïoli Mix 3 tbsp mayo with juice 1 lemon, 1 tsp Dijon mustard and 1 garlic clove, grated. Chill until needed.

Steps:

• Place the oil in a fondue pot or medium saucepan and heat over moderately high heat for about 10 minutes, or until quite hot. (To test: Place a few breadcrumbs into the oil; they'll sizzle if it's hot enough.)
• While the oil is heating, trim any excess fat off the beef and cut into 1-to 1 1/2 inch cubes. Place in a bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Remove fondue pot from the stove and set it over Sterno or a candle. Spear a piece of meat on a fork or skewer and dip it into the hot oil. (The oil should bubble furiously; if it doesn't, it isn't hot enough. Return the fondue pot to the stove for a few minutes over high heat and try again.) For medium beef, cook about 5 to 8 minutes. When the beef is cooked, remove from hot fork and place on plate to cool. Serve with dipping sauces.
