Sensational New Seasonal Menu



The St Ermin's Hotel's newly appointed Executive Head Chef, Alexander Boyd introduces his inspired new a la carte menu at their triple AA rosette, Caxton Grill. A delectable collection of seasonal dishes, made using the finest local ingredients; each item on Alexander's innovative menu is beautifully presented, offers superb flavour combinations and contrasts and is of course, cooked to perfection in the restaurant's signature Josper grill.

Utilising the St Ermin's Hotel's brand new roof kitchen garden – home to a variety of organic fruits, vegetable and herbs, Alexander's new menu was designed with provenance in mind: From light bites such as Burrata cheese and St Ermin's plum tartar crisp breads, to colourful starters such as Scottish salmon and grapefruit, or mains including fresh monkfish with pea puree, pancetta and pearl barley – topped off with a fresh pea, lemon and mint salad – each dish showcases the very best of the quality ingredients used.

Reintroducing the Caxton's signature Josper Grill – an indoor charcoal oven, Alexander has worked closely with local suppliers – bringing the best 28-day dry aged British beef steaks to the restaurant alongside fresh, responsibly caught fish. The Josper oven cooks at exceedingly high temperatures, retaining moisture and adding a hint of smokiness, for a perfectly cooked Fillet, Sirloin or Rib-eye steak every time, or a delicate Dover sole, organic Scottish salmon fillet, wild sea bass or native Scottish lobster.

Joining the relaxed and stylish Caxton Grill in Westminster from his previous role as Head Chef at The Mansion House, where he regularly served high profile clients and the British Royal Family; Alexander has an undeniable culinary talent and creative flair, with a particular eye for detail - reflected in his first Caxton Grill menu.

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
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. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. 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...
