Matariki, the Māori New Year, is a wonderful time to celebrate the amazing produce we have available in New Zealand. Chefs Rex Morgan and Lyall Minhinnick have created a Māori-style Surf 'n' Turf recipe which utilizes both Māori ingredients and cooking methods.
Manuka smoked beef rib, Horopito crust roasted bone marrow, Urenika Smash, beer-battered Paua chips, crayfish, and root vegetables - this recipe is a real winner.
Serve your Surf 'n' Turf on a serving board or platter large enough to hold all the dish components and garnish with the lemons, herbs, and watercress. Enjoy sharing with family and friends.
