This post has long been remiss, back in the now feeling long distant summer, I was given some intriguing wood paper to cook food in from the lovely people at The Roasting Plank Company to have a play with and see what I came up with, I really wanted to do something special with the beech wood paper, and until now the recipe had eluded me, but Christmas is a time for presents…isn’t it?? So after soaking the wood paper for a couple of hours, I made up a couple of lovely parcels using a turkey breast escalope, a slice of bury black pudding crumbled into the middle and a tablespoon of cranberry sauce to sweeten things up. I then rolled the escalope up and wrapped with smoked streaky bacon, before wrapping in the wood paper and securing with a bow using butchers string. Cook on a medium hot BBQ indirectly for 20-30 mintutes with the lid on. Or if it’s abit cold then place on a hot griddle for 5 minutes each side, to start the wood smoking a little, and then pop into a preheated oven to 200degC for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and the bacon becomes crisp. The turkey stays lovely and moist, and picks up a lovely sweet smoky taste from the wood paper. You could vary this recipe, with chicken breast, blue cheese, bbq sauce, fish or vegetables, the choice is yours, there’s lots of great ideas on the roasting plank companies site. Have a wonderful Christmas. Cheers Marcus

Hi Marcus Black pudding (as i think you know) is one of my favourites and love seeing your pics including it. Would love to have some decent black pudding with my Christmas turkey but The Germans are coming to stay over crimbo (well, the sister in law)...and she's veggie so I don't think I'll put black pudding on the table......even the turkey may be put on hold I always love seeing your food pictures on the forum and lately you have taken them to a new level. A little birdy tells me you have a book in the pipeline. Please tell us more. Terry

Marcus
I've only knee pads and a few banana's in the fruit bowl so will have to wait to see your i book. Perhaps you have already given us members of this forum a good insight into your creations. If Father Christmas brings me an i pad or apple? I will definitely obtain the i book.
The Germans have landed........I made my sister-in-law jacket potatoes with a leek and mushroom sauce which was devoured on arrival. just as well as I was brought a bottle of Jaegermeister from it's source.

Ages since I had Jaegermeister mate.....I recently found a really authentic Zigeuner sauce recipe - here jxlfood.wordpress.com/2010/05/08/zigeuner-sauce/Tried it out with some home made schnitzels - utterly marvellous. Sorry Marcus, don't mean to hijack your posting

Yes marcus. Been wanting to email you since I retweeted your launch of you I book . Question for you . How do we ( Luddites like me) get to support you when we dont have i apple things. I feel bad becuase would love a copy and support you . I know you mentioned before re kindle and apple but its like trying to get water out of a stone to explain for me and i dont like these techie things. So if i buy it and get my neighbour to down load it will he be able to save it for ever and show me when i shout for him to come over and show me on his APPLE? . I like shouting at the neighbours haahahaha Hows the sales going .and hope this is the beginning of loads more to come

I know mate, I can't even get it, but the publishers decided to go down the apple route first, gutted that there's people such as your good self who want it, but can't get it. All i can say is I hope it does well that it will soon be available on android. I will be pushing the publisher though. No idea how it's doing so far, but will see in the new year. appreciate your support as always guys. I think once you have bought it, it will be available through apple bookstore, but maybe someone else more techy has another idea? cheers marcus
