Directions: |
Directions:1. Prepare meat by removing the fat and cut into cubes. Prepare ahead of time and keep in refrigerator. 2. Parboil the potatoes by dumping them into a pot of boiling water on the stove, and cook until just tender when you spear with fork. Then remove potatoes and place them in bowl of cold water. 3. Prepare mushrooms by cleaning them and removing the stems. 4. Measure out oil into the fondue pot, following directions in the manufacturer’s guide. 5. Plug in the pot 15 minutes before you plan to begin cooking the fondue meat and vegetables. Oil is ready when a piece of day-old bread turns golden brown in 25 to 35 seconds (375 degrees) 6. Remove meat from refrigerator and make sure it is not too wet. Pat dry the meat, potatoes, mushrooms and tomatoes to prevent hot oil from spitting when placed in the pot. 7. Each person should have a plate, a steak knife, a fork, and at least 2 fondue forks. (Do not eat the food directly from the fondue fork.)
Tips: • Marinate the meat if you want to give it more flavor. • Do not salt the meat before dipping it in hot oil. • Place a trivet under the fondue pot to protect the table. • Avoid placing raw meat or poultry on your dinner plate. • Cherry tomatoes are hard to cook—handle with care. |
