Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Brain and Liver Pâté Introduction & Inspiration Brain and liver pâté, while it may sound like a bold culinary choice, is just divine! The pâté is so creamy and delicious thanks to its unique ingredients and preparation process. When blended, these ingredients create a velvety consistency that's hard to beat. This smoothness combined with the rich, umami flavours makes it a truly delectable option. Enjoying it on a crisp piece of PKD toast just takes it to the next level. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time 30 minutes to 1 hour Serving Size 1 x Terrine of Brain and Liver Pâté (14cm x 9cm x 6cm) Main Ingredients: 230g Veal Liver 100g Tallow 180g Veal Brains - Poached Salt To Taste Fresh Rosemary Sprigs or Dried Thyme (Optional) Recipe Instructions Pre heat the oven to 110c. Remove the transparent membrane surrounding the liver. In a blender, add the liver and all the melted tallow along with the veal brains. Blend until the ingredients are fully combined. Now you need to taste the mixture and determine if any seasoning needs to be added. Add some salt and herbs (optional) and blend briefly. Pour the blender contents through a fine mesh sieve into a terrine dish. Use the back of a spatula to push down on the mixture in the sieve. Once all the mixture has been pushed through the sieve into the terrine dish, place the dish in a deep sided dish/tray that has hot water filled up to half way up the side of the terrine dish (What's known as a Bain Marie in French, or Hot Water Bath). Place a piece of greaseproof paper large enough to cover the top of the terrine dish on top, followed by the lid. Place the baking tray in the oven for 25-45 minutes. Cook to your liking (if the centre wobbles slightly, but they are set, this is probably medium rare and still quite pink. If you prefer more well done then cook for a further 10 to 15 minutes) Remove the baking tray from the oven and let the brain and liver pâté cool down in the terrine. Once cooled, transfer the pâté to the fridge. Tips The brain and liver pâté will keep for about 1 week in the fridge. Depending on how much you are planning to make, you can also portion it out and freeze it as well. It should keep for a couple of months. Ideally, purchase your fat and offal from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Any ingredients listed as Optional, may or may not be appropriate if you are following Strict PKD with No Allowances. If you are unsure, refer to the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet Rules document or consult with ICMNI in Hungary ( Home - Nutriintervention ).

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Leg Of Lamb - Slow Cooked In The Oven Introduction & Inspiration This Slow Cooked Leg of Lamb is going to take your next Sunday meal to a whole new level! It is extremely easy to make, but you will have to be patient as it's going to be a low and slow type of cook. However the reward will be the most amazingly tender lamb leg with meat that literally falls off the bone, served with flavoursome cooking juices and bacon slices. What's not to like! I hope you will give this a try over Spring, or indeed any moment you have time to appreciate this delicious cut of meat among family and friends. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes (To Note: The leg of lamb preparation should be done several hours before cooking or ideally overnight). Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes (To Note: Ideally you will need to also allow time to baste your leg of lamb at regular intervals with the cooking juices) Serving Size 4 - 6 Servings Main Ingredients: 1.895 kg Leg Of Lamb 80g Tallow (room temperature) 400ml Bone Broth 180g Smoked Bacon Slices Salt To Taste 2 Carrots (Optional) 1 x Parsnip (Optional) 2 tsp Dried Rosemary or Thyme (Optional) Recipe Instructions Instructions Prior to Cooking : In a large bowl, add the tallow, rosemary and salt. Use a fork to mix all the ingredients together until everything is well combined. Reserve. Place the lamb on a wooden chopping board and pat it dry all over with a paper towel. Score the top of the lamb 3 - 4 times with a sharp knife. Rub the tallow mixture all over the lamb and into the little slits you have created. Cover the lamb, and Ideally leave it in the fridge for several hours (or overnight) before cooking. Instructions for Cooking : Pre-heat the oven to 130c - Convection. Heat up the bone broth in a pan on low heat, until it's nice and hot. Remove the leg of lamb from the fridge and place it on top of a little trivet, in a roasting tin. Cover the top of the lamb with the slices of smoked bacon. Pour the bone broth around the sides of the lamb leg. Peel the parsnip and the carrots (if using) and cut them into small cubes and place around the sides of the lamb leg. Crumple some greaseproof paper, large enough to cover the meat and then wet it under the tap. Cover the leg of lamb with the greaseproof paper and then add some aluminium foil on top and make sure it is well sealed around the roasting tin. Place the roasting tin in the oven and cook for 10-11 hours. (Try and Baste the meat with the cooking juices every hour, and from 9 hours onwards baste the meat and also use two forks to check if you can pull the meat apart easily. Once you can, it's ready). Remove the roasting tin from the oven, baste the meat with the cooking juices and cover again and allow the meat to rest for 30 minutes. Transfer the Leg of Lamb to a wooden chopping board, pour all the juices from the roasting tin into a jar (if not serving straightaway) or else pour the juices into a pan and bring it to a boil over a low-medium heat. Cook, until the juices have reduced to the desired consistency for the sauce reduction. To serve, cut or shred the meat, removing any bones. Place the lamb and vegetables (if using) onto a serving plates (or a serving platter) and drizzle over some of the cooking sauce. To ensure a good PKD meat : fat ratio, add some whipped tallow or other PKD fat of your choice. Enjoy! Tips Ideally use a snug fit roasting tin (i.e. that is only slightly bigger than the lamb leg so that everything stays juicy). This lamb is delicious served with a traditional mint sauce. Check out my Mint Sauce recipe for instructions on how to make this. Try and purchase all your meat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Any vegetables or herbs should be of organic quality, and are only recommended for those who have recovered from any kind of health condition.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Whipped Tallow Fat Introduction & Inspiration Tallow, when whipped up, has such a wonderful texture and when it sets, it's almost like meringue in my mind. Having the option to whip up tallow can be useful for certain recipes when you are looking for a lighter, more airy touch. If you haven't tried whipping tallow up yet, why not give it a go. You may be pleasantly surprised as to how this one change can alter your perception of this amazing, nutrient dense, animal fat. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 100g Whipped Beef Tallow Main Ingredients: 100g Beef Tallow Recipe Instructions Add the tallow to a large glass bowl and leave it out on the kitchen countertop at room temperature until it has become soft enough to work with. (You'll know the tallow is ready to be whipped, when it's possible to mash the tallow with the back of a fork. It should still be slightly firm, but not overly hard) Plug in an electric hand whisk and proceed to whisk the tallow fat on the lowest speed, until you obtain a nice consistency with soft peaks forming. The tallow will whip to a stiff peak stage as well, so keep whisking it until you get the consistency you are looking for. Your Whipped Tallow is now ready to use. Any leftovers can be scooped into an airtight container using a spatula and then placed in the fridge. Tips Bear in mind that it's best to whip your tallow when you're actually going to use it, since once you place it back in the fridge it will go hard again. Whipped Tallow does hold its texture reasonably well, which is a trait I love about it. Ideally, purchase your animal fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free. Whipped Tallow can also be spooned into little silicone moulds and frozen. They make great accompaniments to meat dishes for a good fat: protein ratio.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, PKD (With Allowances) Halloween Chocolates Introduction & Inspiration Halloween 'Chocolates' are a great alternative to the more traditional Halloween candy, loaded with all sorts of suspect ingredients!

Pour the contents of the blender through a sieve (and ideally a cheesecloth), into a glass jug.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Breaded Liver on Beef Crackling Puree Introduction & Inspiration 'Breaded' liver it is extremely tasty, with an incredible flavour furnished by the oxtail sauce reduction. A wonderful change from other, more bland liver dishes. The breading is provided by a very fine crispy Parma ham powder to give it a nice savoury flavour and the hot beef crackling is blended to a purée consistency with a touch of the rich cooking sauce. It's an ideal combination of flavours, quick to make and perfect for a week night meal to ensure you're getting your regular intake of liver on PKD. I hope you will enjoy making this dish. Please let me know how it turned out for you. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less Than 30 Minutes Serving Size 1 x 'Breaded' Liver on Beef Crackling Purée Main Ingredients: 140g Veal Liver 125ml Oxtail Cooking Juices (plus 50ml extra for deglazing) 55g Beef Crackling 25g Crispy Parma Ham Powder 10g Lard for coating Garnish: Sprig of Parsley (Optional) 1 tsp Crispy Parma Ham Powder (Optional) Recipe Instructions Pre heat the oven to 80c. Give the veal liver a quick rinse under running water and then pat it dry with a paper towel. Place the liver on a wooden chopping board. Use a pastry brush to coat the veal liver all over with melted lard. Sprinkle the crispy Parma ham powder into a large enough dish ( a similar size as the slice of veal liver). Now use kitchen tongs to dip the liver into the powder until all sides are fully coated. Add any remaining melted lard to the centre of a frying pan on medium-high heat and then add the oxtail cooking juices. Leave the juices to reduce down for 6 or so minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to turn into a thicker sauce and bubbles up. At this point you can add the liver to the pan. Cook for 2 minutes on one side, before flipping the liver over with the kitchen tongs and cooking the remaining side for 2 minutes. Add the 'breaded' liver onto a lined baking tray along with a serving plate. Wait for the oven to reach temperature and then turn it off, before adding your tray to the oven . Deglaze the frying pan by adding it back on a medium heat and pouring in the extra oxtail cooking juices, along with the beef crackling pieces. Use a spatula or pastry brush to help loosen the fond. This will create even more flavour for the jus. Once the beef crackling pieces are nice and warm, add them to a mini blender, together with a 3-4 tablespoons of the jus from the frying pan. Blend, until the beef crackling resembles a purée in consistency. Remove the liver and serving plate from the oven. Add the beef crackling purée to the centre of the serving plate in a long strip (roughly the size of the liver slices). Use a knife to cut the liver into thin slices on a wooden chopping board and then using a spatula, carefully transfer the slices on top of the purée. Use a spoon to drizzle your liver with the remaining jus from the frying pan. Top with a sprinkle of crispy Parma ham powder and a sprig of parsley for decoration. Bon Appetit! Tips Ideally, purchase your offal from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. You can also coat your liver using egg yolk or liver pâté as well for variation. If using eggs, be sure to use free range, organic eggs. If you're not able to use crispy Parma Ham Powder for the 'breading' you can always use Beef Tripe 'Flour' or 'Pulled Pork Flour' or even just grind up some tripe, beef, liver or pork sheets into a fine powder. If you do not have any veal liver available, then use lamb or else beef liver instead. Check out my Crispy Parma Ham Powder, Lard and Pork Crackling - Air Fryer and Oxtail - Slow Cooker recipes for instructions on how to make all of these. If you do not have any oxtail cooking juices, use another type of broth, ideally one that has a lot of flavour. If you like this recipe, why not try out my Breaded Liver With Pulled Pork Sauce too!

Use the ‘browning’ option on your oven to brown the 'Bread' Circles for 3-5 minutes (keep an eye on them so that they don't burn!) Remove the baking tray from the oven and allow the 'Bread' circles to cool on the countertop. Once the 'Bread' circles are cool enough to handle, carefully remove the metallic circles from around them. Your ‘Bread’ circles are ready! (If you are not using your 'Bread' circles immediately, then simply place them into an airtight container and store them in the fridge). Tips Check out my Bone Broth - Pressure Cooker, Whipped Bone Marrow and Braised Beef Cheek- Slow Cooker recipes for instructions on how to make these. Ideally, purchase your meat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. As they cool, these 'bread' circles will become even sturdier and are ideal for making sandwiches. Video Not Available Yet....

Regime Type: PKD (With Allowances), Without Eggs Cold Start Roast Chicken Introduction & Inspiration The French Cooking Academy has a great technique for roasting a chicken in the oven which I wanted to share in case folks are not familiar with it. This technique is simple and yields a succulent, juicy result. It's a very simple method which is still used here in some French homes whereby the chicken is roasted, starting from a cold oven. Not only does the chicken become nicely coloured, and yields a succulent, juicy result but it also generates the most delicious caramelised roast chicken cooking juices with all the natural fat from the chicken. For such a minimal effort, the results are really impressive. So why not go ahead and give this one a try! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 1.5 hours Serving Size 1 x Cold Start Roast Chicken 190ml Chicken Cooking Juices/Broth Main Ingredients: 1.7kg Whole Chicken 40g Tallow or Lard (Melted) 40g Tallow* Salt To Taste Recipe Instructions Pat the chicken dry, if not already done so. Add 1/2 of the melted tallow to a metal roasting tray/dish that you will be using to roast the chicken in. Spread the liquid over the base using a pastry brush. Place the chicken in the roasting tray/dish. Pour the remaining melted tallow over the top of the chicken and use a pastry brush to brush the liquid into the legs and wings. Cut the tallow into 4 smaller pieces. Place a piece of tallow between each of the legs and wings of the chicken. Sprinkle salt over the chicken. Add the roasting dish with the chicken to a cold oven. For a 1.5kg chicken, set the oven to 200c with the Forced Air function on. Cook for 70 minutes. For a chicken weighing slightly more than 1.5kg, set the oven temperature to 190c with the Forced Air function** on. Cook for 80-90 minutes without opening the door (this is very important to avoid the steam escaping). Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a cooling rack and cover with greaseproof paper and a sheet of foil. Let it rest for at least 20+ minutes before carving. Pour the cooking juices into a jug (you can sieve it first should you wish). Once the chicken has cooled for at least 20 minutes, transfer it onto a wooden chopping board and carve the chicken. To serve, add the chicken slices to serving plates (or a serving platter), and pour the delicious roast chicken cooking juices over the meat. Add a little extra fat for a good Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet (PKD) ratio. Enjoy! Tips Should your chicken be slightly larger in size than 1.5kg, reduce the cooking temperature to 190c and extend the cooking time by 10 to 20 minutes. *Tallow can be substituted with lard. **Forced Air function allows you to cook a variety of food requiring the same cooking temperature on two shelves at the same time (e.g.: fish, vegetables, cakes). This function can be used to cook different foods without odours being transferred from one food to another. Use the 2nd shelf to cook on one shelf only. To cook on two shelves, use the 1st and 4th levels after preheating the oven. To watch the original video done by the French Cooking Academy simply visit: COLD START ROAST CHICKEN — French Cooking Academy ( thefrenchcookingacademy.com ) Ideally, purchase your meat and fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives.
