Dear BM

I have a goat to barbecue. How many hours will it take? Should I remove its entrails first? Can they be used in a sauce of some kind? Is it ok to use its horns to turn it over with? SHould I remove its feet? How many will it serve (it is a very large goat)? What marinade do you recommend?

I wish to serve this goat with potatoes.

I can do one of the following:

Sautee them gently with some chives
Mash them delicately with butter and black pepper
Cook them carefully in a Dauphinoise Sauce
Immerse them in boiling fat

What do you recommend?

Boiling fat... oh yes, no question...  cloud9:

Cut them into little 'strips' first - so they cook faster like...  happy088

Meringues. I also need to make some fairy cakes. And a small trifle

Meringues ~ Whisk egg whites and sugar until it "peaks". Place a tablespoonful of mixture on baking parchment. Continue until all the mix is used. This will depend on how many egg whites you have used. Leave a space between each spoonful or they will "merge". Alternatively for a pavlova spoon out two equal quantities into large heaps. Bake in a moderate oven until cooked. Should be hard on the outside but not dark brown! Leave to set after baking.
Whip cream and if desired soft fruit. Place layer of cream/fruit between the halves of meringue and Robert is your father's brother.

Fairy cakes ~ you need some paper cake cases. Beat equal amounts of flour, butter and castor sugar until creamy smooth mixture is obtained (I usually go for 225 grms of each) Beat in three large eggs. Spoon mixture into cake cases (about half fill each case) and bake in a moderate oven for 10 to 15 minutes.

A small trifle ~ Look inside your Y fronts!
