Seamark And Vermilion Launch Seafood Cookbook


  
   04 Dec 12
VERMILION restaurant has achieved legendary status for its combination of sumptuous decor and equally exquisite food - a combination of Thai and Indian dishes.

Seafood has been a speciality from the start. Parent company Seamark was the first to introduce Black Tiger shrimps to Europe 30 years ago and has since grown into one of the greatest suppliers of quality seafood in the world. From supermarkets to some of the greatest restaurants you'll find Seamark produce

The quality shows in the dishes served in their own North East Manchester restaurant, which benefits from Seamark's supply chain of the freshest spices and Asian ingredients.  Add the expertise of executive chef Chatchai Jamjang and his team and you have the perfect recipe for a memorable meal.

Now you can recreate the culinary experience in your own home. Vermilion is revealing its kitchen  secrets by publishing a 160-page book called Ocean To Your Plate. It's based upon seafood, naturally. Starters, soups, curries, mains - succulent, healthy dishes from the freshest ingredients. All quick and easy to prepare. Dishes like Vermilion signature dish, Grilled Ocean Tiger Prawns.

Ocean To Your Plate, as the title suggests, is not just a collection of recipes. It's a fascinating introduction to Thai and Indian cooking, its methods and the raw materials involved.

It's also a history of a remarkable family and its business success. How Iqbal Ahmed OBE and his brothers created Seamark. Now a worldwide seafood empire, it still sources much of its finest produce from its Bangladesh homeland, where it has its own trawler fleet.

CEO Iqbal Ahmed OBE recently welcomed Prime Minister David Cameron to Seamark HQ  in Manchester - recognition of the company's prestige in business circles.

But it is also a caring company. Seamark is bringing aid to  Bangladesh through the Iqbal Ahmed Foundation - a charity to help and improve the role of people in the third world countries, through education, training, housing and healthcare.

All proceeds from Ocean To Your Plate will go to the Foundation.

Iqbal's son Manzur, who runs Vermilion, says in his introduction: "I am extremely proud of Vermilion, a restaurant like no other. Proud of its creativity, its design and, of course, its exquisite food."

Now you can recreate that exquisite cuisine at home - and benefit a great charity.

Ocean To Your Plate is out now, price £9.95, 12 euros, $16. It can be bought at the restaurant or online, UK shipping, £6 international shipping £20. All proceeds from the sale of this first edition go to the Iqbal Ahmed Foundation. To order please go tohttp://www.vermilioncinnabar.com/dev/#!ocean-to-your-plate-recipe-book/

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes.

To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then...
