Lee Tiernan is back with his @blackaxemangal special - the epic looking squid ink flatbread topped with smoked cod's roe and an egg yolk.
Step 1:
Make the flatbread in the same way as the BAM flatbread recipe - but portion the dough balls to 100g each.
Step 2:
To make the cod’s roe, soak the bread in the milk for an hour or so.
Step 3:
Put the soaked bread into a blender or food processor and add the cod’s roe and minced garlic. Start the machine on a medium speed for 1 min and then increase the speed to medium-high and add the oil slowly. The texture should be similar to hummus.
Step 4:
Once you’ve reached the consistency, check the seasoning. If the roe is particularly salty you may not need to add extra salt. Add the lemon juice to your taste, and chill in an airtight container until needed.
Step 5:
Open up your flatbread and cook in your Gozney oven at 660°F.
Step 6:
Once they are cooked, use a teaspoon to make a well in the centre. Add an egg yolk on top and drizzle some melted butter on top. Return to your oven and bake for 1 min.
Step 7:
When the yolk is just done, dollop the cod’s roe onto the top being careful not to break the yolk. Sprinkle the seaweed powder and edible glitter to finish.
