The first of Red Rock Deli's Secret Suppers has been and gone, with MasterChef Australia 2010 winner Adam Liaw kicking things off in May.
The exclusive supper series — running until September at secret locations across Sydney and Melbourne — sees some of Australia's most talented chefs whipping up mouth-watering, three-course feasts inspired by Red Rock Deli's new limited-edition range. And when we say exclusive, we mean it — only 20 lucky guests get to tuck into each lavish dinner.
On Wednesday, May 15, Malaysian Australian chef Adam Liaw put up an Asian-fusion feast. After guests were picked up from Central Station's Grand Concourse entrance and whisked away to a mystery location, Liaw dished up plates inspired by Red Rock Deli's Thai red chilli and creamy coconut chips.
In the first course, Liaw made chilli the hero with a Korean bo ssam of pork, prawns and herb kimchi, while his dessert of coconut and lychee pavlova with mango sauce incorporated the creamy texture of coconut. But it was the melt-in-your-mouth braised ox cheeks in red chilli and coconut curry that was the real winner — to recreate it at home, check out the recipe here.
If Liaw's dinner is anything to go by, the upcoming suppers will be quite something. Duncan Welgemoed of Adelaide's famed African-inspired wood fire joint, Africola, is up next. The dinner will take place on Thursday, June 20 and will be inspired by Red Rock Deli's flame grilled steak and chimichurri flavour.
