Turkey Tornadoes Food

SEARED BEEF TORNADOES

Steps:

• For the polenta: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the stock to a simmer. Then reduce the heat to medium-low. Next, slowly whisk in the cornmeal and continue whisking during the entire cooking process. Cook until the liquid has been absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes. Then add the cheese, again whisk, and then taste and season with salt and pepper. Hold warm until serving.
• For the beef: Heat a large saute pan over high heat until the verge of smoking, and then add the oil; reduce the heat to medium. Sprinkle the steaks, both sides, with salt and pepper, and add to the oiled pan. Sear the steaks on the first side for 2 minutes, then flip and repeat cooking for additional 2 minutes. Once cooked, turn the heat off and add the butter and thyme. Allow the butter to brown, turning or spooning the butter over the steaks during the process, for 1 minute.
• Remove the steaks and allow to rest for 2 minutes. Then portion the prepared polenta to the plates, top with seared tornadoes and then spoon over brown butter and serve.

TURKEY TORNADOES

Steps:

• 1. To make 6 Turkey tornadoes With a cookie cutter I cut and shaped the turkey breast round. I then placed raw bacon and wrapped it around the turkey tornado. I seasoned the turkey with fresh rosemary, pinch of salt and pepper. I added lemon juice from a real lemon, just 1 lemon is fine. I then added some dry white wine and sliced 1 royal gala apple and placed each slice on top of the turkey tornadoe. The leftover apples were just placed in the pan. Drizzle with olive oil. Cooked the turkey tornadoes in a 400F oven for about 30 minutes and voila! Thanksgiving was served!! I also served my homemade stuffing recipe! Recipe to follow soon :)
