@nzzp yeah that's my go that works more often than not (anyone who says they nail it every time is a fucking liar)
Pat dry, then in the fridge for a few hours uncovered (the longer the better, but who has time for that?) then i pour boiling water over it. Then the oil and salt.
I will say that every time I have in left in the fridge overnight uncovered, I nail it. Every time.

Haven't seen that one in ages!
to be fair though, it's harder not to get crackle over coals on a rotisserie.

I've been buying food online since lockdown. I bought and ate some Pure South Sileri lamb rump. It came in small chucks, cooked up beautifully on a wood fire oven. Every single bit of the meat was eaten. I was too hungry and drunk to take a freshly cooked photo.
This was leftovers the next day

Every bit of meat was ultimately eaten, ie no waste

Thinking about making this oven roasted fish (hake) and peppers dish. What local NZ fish should I use?
PREPARATION
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Pull 1 tablespoon thyme leaves off the bunch and finely chop.
Season fish all over with a large pinch or two of salt and pepper and rub with chopped thyme leaves. Let rest at room temperature while you prepare peppers.
Spread peppers on a rimmed sheet pan, and toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the black pepper to taste. Top peppers with the remaining thyme sprigs. Roast, tossing occasionally, until peppers are softened and golden at the edges, 15 to 20 minutes.
Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees. Push peppers to the edges of the pan, clearing a space in the center. Lay fish out on that empty space and drizzle with oil. Scatter olives over the top of fish and peppers. Roast until fish turns opaque and is just cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, make a vinaigrette by combining vinegar, garlic and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, then whisk in parsley. Taste and add more salt or vinegar, or both, if needed. Serve fish and peppers drizzled with vinaigrette.INGREDIENTS
1 small bunch lemon thyme or regular thyme
1 ½ pounds hake fillets
Fine sea salt and black pepper
3 large bell peppers, preferably 1 red, 1 orange and 1 yellow, thinly sliced
4 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
¼ cup pitted, sliced black or green olives, or a combination
1 teaspoon sherry vinegar, plus more to taste
1 garlic clove, grated
1 cup loosely packed Italian parsley leaves, chopped -

I think some enjoyed this last year so another plug...
I ordered those, they were great. Tamarillos too even though they didn't grow them. Thanks for posting, I'll be all over that

Spring day, Anzac biscuits and blackberry wine.... Love cooking traditional kiwi stuff like lamingtons, Afghan biscuits, potato fritters etc.
Anzac biscuits recipe originally from the Edmonds Cookbook I think. Wine is about 3/4 blackberry and 1/4 grape to give it some body and fermented on the pulp. 2 years old and tastes a bit like an acidic red burgundy.
Found some port-style wine I made about 10 years ago (blackberry, plum, elderberry, grape) where I stopped the fermentation with vodka to keep the wine sweet and alcoholic. Forgot about it. Should be interesting to try...
