Nando’s Slow Braised Brisket

I am a huge fan of Nando's. I could confidently say my Fiancé and I will go at least twice a month, if not more. The vinegary, spicy sauces are a work of genius and to this day, I have never been able to recreate them. But why bother when they come in a bottle? They are a fantastic base for a braising liquid, and made for the most delicious, fall apart, slow cooked brisket which you can enjoy in a multitude of ways.

Ingredients

Method

Turn cooking mode on

1.

Rub the brisket all over with the Nando’s spice rub and a little olive oil.

1.2 kg Beef brisket

25 g Nando’s Peri-Peri rub

1 tbsp Olive oil

2.

Heat a heavy, ovenproof pot and sear the meat until well browned on all sides.

3.

Lift the brisket out, then add the onion and garlic to the same pot and cook for a minute until fragrant.

1 Onion

3 cloves Garlic

4.

Stir in the Peri-Peri sauce, beef stock and lime juice, scraping up the browned bits from the base.

250 ml Nando’s Peri-Peri sauce

200 ml Beef stock

1 Lime

5.

Nestle the brisket back in, spoon some of the sauce over the top, cover tightly and cook in the oven at 120°C for about 8 hours until the meat is easy to pull apart but still holds its shape.

6.

Once cooked, lift the brisket out carefully onto a plate and rest it for 20 minutes.

7.

Skim the fat from the sauce and reduce it a little on the hob until glossy and thick enough to spoon over the meat.

8.

Pour some over the brisket to glaze, keeping the rest on the side for serving.

For the coleslaw:

1.

Toss the red cabbage, carrot and coriander in a bowl.

1/4 Red cabbage

2 Carrots

1 bunch Coriander

2.

Mix in the Perinaise and lime juice, then season with salt and black pepper.

3 tbsp Nando’s Perinaise

1 Lime

Salt

Black pepper

3.

Serve the whole glazed brisket on a warm platter with the coleslaw alongside.

4.

Garnish with sliced red chilli, fresh coriander and an extra squeeze of lime, then carve the meat at the table.

5.

Alternatively, shred the meat back into the braising liquid like a Birria mix and enjoy inside tacos, wraps or sliders!
