Great Glaze

Use, for example, on Fillet of Beef

¼ cup mild oil

3 tablespoons dark rum or whiskey

2 tablespoons muscovado sugar

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

½ tablespoon tamari or soy sauce

½ teaspoon salt flakes

In a small pot, mix all ingredients and let simmer for a minimum of 5 minutes.

When preparing the Fillet of Beef, you start by adding salt and pepper and brown the meat all around. Brush on the glaze before roasting it in the oven. Brush twice more while the meat is roasting.

After searing the meat, put in oven at 250 degrees until inner temperature reaches 122 – 140 degrees. For 3 pounds of meat this will take about 40 minutes.

Similarily, if tossing meat on the “barbie”, brush with the glaze prior to, and during, grilling.

This glaze is also great for spicing up chicken. Or Halloumi cheese!
