Top Tips

  • For sharing platters, use a variety of different breads and vegetables to add colour and texture to the presentation.
  • Save time in the kitchen by using “Thaw & Serve” items when under pressure with large gatherings.
  • To reduce costs on a tight budget or to combat availability issues, choose cheaper cuts of meat and marinate and tenderize to maximize flavour. For example, replace beef fillet with rump heart, as they look similar on plate.
  • Replace certain ingredients with those easier to source and use seasonal vegetables. For example, switch to salmon or bassa instead of seabass or cod.
  • Monitor portion control for each sharing dish to keep meal sizes consistent and affordable. For example, a Tomahawk steak can serve two as a main or 3-4 people for a tapas/ grazing platter.
  • Choose a mixture of hot and cold foods to serve in order to reduce the likelihood of food sitting and losing heat. A cold starter is always a bonus in case guests are running late.
  • For monitoring food waste, re-use leftover food to create delicious new dishes. For example, turning baby potatoes into a potato waffle platter.
  • Use ready-to-use sauces that you can add to and improvise with to save time. For example, use a ready-made sauces and stocks such as peppered sauce.
  • Ensure you have non-food packaging ready to provide the option of either sitting in or takeaway. Packaging also helps for any ad hoc leftover requests for guests to take home.
