im really looking forward to making the flank steak. i found the recipe in vic's william sonoma grilling book. basically, you take a flank steak, butterfly it, open it up and place it on foil, leaving about 1.5 inches border around it. it should look like an open book. spread a filling of mashed up anchovy filets, parmesan cheese, pine nuts, chopped salami, and parsley. salt and pepper the outside of the steak, and roll it like a jelly roll. wrap the foil around it and twist the ends (so it almost looks like wrapped candy) and place it on the grill in direct heat. this basically means, get your grill all fired up with both burners, and then turn off one. place the roll over the the turned off burner, and grill it for about 2 hours, turning about 4-5 times. when you pierce it and the meat is tender, it's done. let i t sit in the foil for about 15 minutes. then cut it into 1-2 inch pieces. it looks fucking delicious, ill let you know how it turns out.
i think next week i'm making makhani murgh and pasta with scallops and spinach in a tomato cream sauce.
