Street Food

A flexible street-food plate with grilled bites, bread and sauces.

Ingredients

  • Flatbread or buns
  • Grilled meat or vegetables
  • Crisp potatoes
  • Fresh herbs
  • Pickles
  • Sauces

How to make it

  1. Cook the main filling hot and well seasoned. Work in a bowl for 2-3 minutes until the mixture looks even, then let it rest for 10-20 minutes so the flour, meat or spices hydrate properly.
  2. Warm bread and prepare crunchy sides. Continue gently and check texture rather than only the clock; the dish is ready when the main ingredient is tender and well seasoned.
  3. Add pickles, herbs and sauce. Continue gently and check texture rather than only the clock; the dish is ready when the main ingredient is tender and well seasoned.
  4. Serve immediately while textures contrast. Taste once more before serving. Add salt, acid, herbs or a spoon of sauce at the end while the dish is still hot.

Serving note

Keep the plate simple and let the main texture lead: crisp pastry, tender stew, glossy sauce or fresh garnish. This page is a compact cooking guide, not a long article.
