Method:
1. Garlic Aioli: Mix mayonnaise and garlic together. Set aside for 30 minutes+ for the flavour to develop (do not keep for more than 3 days
tops).
2. Caramelised Onion: Melt butter in a skillet over medium low heat. Add onions and stir to coat in butter. Place lid on (or place a baking
tray over skillet) and leave for 20 minutes, stirring once or twice. Remove lid then cook for a further 20 minutes, stirring every now and
then, until onion is golden (increase heat slightly if the colour is not changing). Add sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper. Cook for a further 10
minutes until jammy. Remove from heat and keep warm.

BEEF
1. Take beef out of fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Season generously with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over high heat (or heat BBQ). Cook steak to your liking - if using a secondary cut like Bavette, skirt or flat iron, it's
best medium rare.
3. Transfer beef to a plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 - 10 minutes. Then slice thinly against the grain.

ASSEMBLE SANDWICH
1. Cut turkish bread into 15cm/6" lengths and split into half. Toast lightly.
2. Spread the bottom piece generously with garlic aioli. Top with rocket, then tomato slices, beef, caramelised onion. Spread the top piece of
bread with mustard then place on top.

Method:

Heat the oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, toss apples, pecans, brown sugar and cinnamon. Set
aside.

Dust work surface lightly with flour. Unroll dough on floured surface. With fingers, press dough
lightly into rectangle; press perforations to seal. Using floured rolling pin, roll out dough as thin as
possible. With pastry brush, spread 2 tablespoons butter all over dough.

Spoon apple mixture onto one long side of dough. Gently lift apple-topped edge of dough and
start rolling up strudel toward plain dough edge until filling is completely sealed. If needed, turn
log to place seam on bottom. For flaky pastry, brush strudel with additional butter.

For easy transfer, carefully slide sheet of cooking parchment paper under strudel. Using paper, lift
and place strudel on ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake 25 to 28 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool
slightly, about 20 minutes, before cutting into pieces.

YEILD TEST OF INGREDIENTS
Yield Test Reference Sheet

Commodity $ / kg Trimmings Net Yield/ kg Net cost/kg

Beans 2.95 16% 0.840 3.51
Broccoli 4.85 24% 0.760 6.38
Carrots 1.40 16% 0.840 1.67
Cauliflower 5.75 22% 0.780 7.37
Kohlrabi 4.28 32% 0.680 6.29
Spinach 10.60 18% 0.820 12.93
Onions 2.45 14% 0.860 2.85

Sirloin 16.80 26% 0.740 22.70

Loin of Pork 14.80 14% 0.860 17.21
Leg of Lamb 8.90 27% 0.730 12.19

To calculate a menu effectively the net yield must be considered to order the correct quantities.
To do so correctly, the trimmings are weighed.
If you buy one kilogram of carrots for $1.40 per Kg and have peelings and offucts weighing 0.160 Kg, then you will obtain 840 g of peeled carrots.
Therefore these 840 g of carrots cost you now $1.40.
Therefore to work out the price for 1 kg of peeled Carrots , the trimming percentage has to be added
to the original price for 1 kg of unpeeled carrots.

Example: $ per kg Trimmings Net Yield Net cost/kg

Carrots 1.40 16% 840 g 1.62

1000 g Carrots = $ 1.40

16% of 1000 g = 1000 x 16 : 100 = 160 g
1000 g (Carrots) - 160 g (Trimmings) = 840 g

Therefore these 840 g of peeled carrots will now still cost $ 1.40

To obtain now the price for 1 kg of peeled carrots we need to establish the following formula

0.840 kg = $ 1.40
1.000 kg = $ X

X = (1.000 x 1.40) / 0.840

X = 1.40 / 0.840

X = 1.666

X = 1.67

The price for 1 kg of peeled carrots is $ 1.67
