Q5: Based on the recipes or the methods listed in your learner guide for these recipes, what meat preparation techniques would you use for the three meat dishes? ANS- Weighing and portioning ingredients Trimming, De-boning Cutting and portioning Rolling, trussing, and tying Marinating. Tenderizing, Seasoning, and coating. Q6: Escalope is a type of meat cut. What does escalope mean? ANS- A thin boneless slice of meat, usually pork or veal, cut at an angle across the grain. Escallops are suited to sautéing or crumbing and shallow frying. The meat is trimmed of all fat and sinew. escalopes are usually quickly sealed in a pan using the sauté method before adding additional ingredients to make an accompanying sauce. Q7: The beef used for the roast beef is listed as sirloin. Where does this cut of meat come from on the carcass?
ANS- The sirloin is a cut of beef that comes from the hindquarters of the animal. It is located towards. the rear of the cow, behind the ribs and loin. The sirloin is divided into various sub-cuts, including the top sirloin and bottom sirloin. Each sub-cut has slightly different characteristics and is used for different culinary purposes. The top sirloin is often considered more tender than the bottom sirloin and is commonly used for roast beef due to its good balance of flavor and tenderness. Q8: Choose the accompaniment you would prepare for each of the following classical and contemporary meat dishes. Your choices of accompaniments are rice, naan bread, sour cream, Yorkshire pudding, noodles. ANS- Coq au Vin (Classical French Dish): Accompaniment: Rice Beef Rendang (Contemporary Indonesian Dish): Accompaniment: Naan bread Chicken Tikka Masala (Contemporary Indian Dish): Accompaniment: Naan bread Chilli Con Carne (Contemporary Tex-Mex Dish): Accompaniment: Rice Beef Wellington (Classical British Dish): Accompaniment: Yorkshire Pudding Q9: Choose the best sauce to go with each of the following meat dishes. Your choices of sauces are: jus de roti, pepper, sweet and sour, apple, and mint ANS- Roast Lamb: Mint sauce Roast Beef: Jus de Roti Roast Pork: Apple sauce Fried Pork: Sweet and sour sauce Grilled Steak: Pepper sauce Q11: What do the culinary terms ‘whole
dressed’
and ‘sweetbreads’
mean? ANS-Whole dressed- The whole carcass that has had the head, tail, feathers/fur, feet, hooves and intestines removed and is ready for butchering or cooking. Sweetbreads-Sweetbreads are the thymus (growing) glands found along the trachea in the neck of young animals such as lambs and calves. They are creamy pink in color, soft in texture and plump and rounded in appearance. Prepare them for cooking by trimming away the outer membrane and any surrounding fat or connective tissue.
Q12: Look at the different methods of cookery and describe which cuts of meat are best suited to each method. Method of cookery
Meat cuts
Braising
Tougher cuts with a higher amount of connective tissue, such as chuck, brisket, shank, or short ribs. Braising involves slow cooking in a liquid, which helps break down collagen in tough cuts, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. Stewing
Similar to braising, tougher cuts like chuck, brisket, shank, or stewing beef. Stewing is a slow, moist cooking method that tenderizes tough cuts through long, gentle simmering in liquid. Boiling
Lean cuts or tougher cuts suitable for longer cooking, such as beef shank or stewing beef. Boiling is suitable for tougher cuts that benefit from extended cooking times, but it's important to use flavorful broths or liquids to enhance taste. Poaching
Lean and tender cuts like chicken breasts, fish fillets, or eggs. Poaching involves cooking food gently in simmering liquid, which is ideal for preserving the delicate texture of tender cuts. Grilling
Tender cuts with moderate fat content, such as steaks (ribeye, sirloin), burgers, chicken breasts, or pork chops. Grilling quickly cooks the meat over high heat, best suited for cuts that are already tender and benefit from a seared exterior. Roasting
Larger, more tender cuts like whole chicken, turkey, prime rib, or pork loin. Roasting is a dry heat method suitable for larger cuts, often in an oven, resulting in a well-browned exterior and juicy interior. Q13: What are three other types of roasting? ANS- Spit roasting ,Pot/Pan roasting ,Slow roasting Rotisserie Roasting Q14: List four pieces of information you might find on stock date codes and rotation labels. ANS-Food type, storage date, use-by and best-before dates. Q15: What information should you put on a date label attached to surplus food being stored for service at another time or day? ANS-Any food placed in storage containers at the end of service should have a date label clearly placed on the outside of the container. The label may also name the contents of the container and who stored it. This helps other staff to rotate stock correctly and decide if the food is safe to use if it has been stored for a period.

Q16: You want to use some leftover meat cuts you’ve found stored in the freezer. Apart from
quality, list two pieces of information on the label to look for when deciding whether to use the meat. ANS-Date and code them. State the date cooked and any other relevant details for easier identification. Q17: What are the four age classifications of lamb? ANS- The four age classifications of lamb are: Spring Lamb: Age: 3 to 5 months Characteristics: Youngest and most tender, with a mild flavour. Summer Lamb: Age: 6 to 8 months Characteristics: Slightly older, still tender with a flavourful meat. Fall Lamb: Age: 9 to 12 months Characteristics: Older with a more pronounced flavour. Yearling Lamb: Age: 12 to 24 months Characteristics: Oldest, less tender, but with a distinct taste. Q18: Live beef cattle are classified according to breed, age, sex and diet: all factors that have a direct effect on the quality, tenderness, flavour and price of the meat. What is the beef classified as for the following ages Under 8 months old: Veal
1 to 2 years: Yearling
2 to 4 years: Prime beef 4 years old and over: Mature beef
Q19: Game meats are classified into feathered, furred, reptiles and other. List two examples for each category. Game classification
Examples
Feathered
Emu and ostrich Furred
Venison, Rabbit Reptile and other
Crocodile, Boar Q20: List two things you can do to control portion sizes and ensure the dishes all appear the same when serving dishes to customers.
Train staff in portion control and correct carving techniques.
Buy pre-portioned foods that have been cut to certain specifications: 200 g steaks or three rib lamb racks. Q21: You visually evaluate dishes and find the following problems. State how you would adjust presentation to address them Dish looks crowded on the plate: Simplify presentation by removing excess elements, balance colors, ensure symmetry, place garnishes strategically, control portion sizes, and embrace negative space for a cleaner look. (Replate it necessary.) Dishes lack color/contrast: Enhance visual appeal by adding vibrant ingredients, contrasting colors, and diverse textures for improved dish presentation.
. There are drips or fingerprints on rims of plates.: Wipe off drips and fingerprints from plate rims for a clean and polished presentation. Q22: The freshness and quality of fresh meat products can be determined by their appearance. With regard to colour, how should each of these fresh meats appear? Veal
Light grey to pale pink Lamb
Pink to dull red Kangaroo
Deep purplish red Beef
Pink to bright red Pork

Q26: Briefly explain and provide two examples of these three meat cuts –
primary, secondary and portioned. Primary
Primal or primary cuts are the first cuts after the side has been divided into quarters. All the bones and muscles remain intact and are not separated. Obviously, the primal cuts and the names given to them vary according to the animal. Depending on the size of the animal, the hindquarter will typically be divided into two to three primal cuts while the forequarter is left whole or cut into two primal cuts. Secondary
Secondary cuts are obtained by dividing primal cuts into smaller portions. The individual major muscles are separated from each other and often the bones, and then trimmed of excess fat. When secondary cuts are trimmed of all surface fat, silver skin and sinew, they are referred to as being 'de-nudged', as in de-
nudged topside. They are then ready for trussing and cooking or breaking down into individual portions such as steaks, chops and so on. Portioned
These are ready-to-cook portions, prepared according to the requirements of the recipe. They can be prepared on site from primary or secondary cuts or purchased from wholesale butchers to the exact size, quantity and specifications desired. Portioned cuts require the least amount of work by you as a cook; however, they are also the most expensive per kilo to purchase of all meat cuts because of the labor gone into preparing them before they reach you. Q27: Briefly describe the following portion cuts. ANS-Medallions-Round portion of boneless meat, usually cut thin enough for sautéing. The prepared meat is sometimes lightly flattened using a meat bat or meat hammer. Rack-The portion of three to six cutlets joined together in a single set. Racks are usually roasted. Once again, the exposed cutlet bones on the rack need to be scraped clean with a boning knife and sometimes covered with foil during the cooking process to prevent them from becoming burnt. Cutlet-Portion cut from the rib section of the loin and includes the bone. Part of the rib bone extends out beyond the meat. For presentation reasons, all meat, fat and sinew is scraped from the exposed section of the bone beforehand. This is called ‘Frenching’. If this is not done, the thin film
surrounding the bone tends to burn, giving the cutlet an unattractive appearance.
Q28: Look at the list of dishes and style of cuts. Using the dropdown menu, decide whether they are secondary or portioned cuts ANS
Roasted rack of lamb portioned
Hungarian goulash secondary
Veal medallions in cream sauce portioned
Roast beef with Yorkshire pudding secondary
Steak tartare portioned Roast leg of pork with sage and onion secondary Poached buffalo fillet with Port chilli glaze
secondary Q29: How do the preparation methods of these dishes help improve the nutritional value of the final dish ANS The roast beef is placed on a mirepoix of vegetables during cooking. Roast meat cuts that contain a layer of fat, such as beef striploin with the fat side up. This allows the melting fat to further baste the meat through the roasting process. It also helps to slow down moisture loss through evaporation. Consider placing the meat on a mirepoix of vegetables. This holds the meat out of the fat preserving the nutritional value, prevents the meat sticking to the pan and adds additional flavor to the roasting juices. Shallow-frying cubed beef brisket prior to braising the meat for curry.-Braising is generally designed to tenderize tougher cuts of meat and game such as lamb shanks, beef brisket, topside, flank and oxtail. These cuts of meat should be sealed in a pan prior to being braised, so that the nutritional value of the meat is preserved. Trimming meat for stir fry beef with noodles. -Trimming also helps improve the nutritional value of meat by
keeping the good bits (the lean meat) and getting rid of the unhealthy bits (the fat). Q30: Your pickled meat is very salty after boiling. What is the likely cause? ANS Start the meat in cold water. Try adding herbs and spices to improve the flavor. - Q31: The deep-fried pork is soggy and oily. What is the likely cause? ANS Temperature of fat isn’t
hot enough. It should be between 175 and 195 °C.
Q32: What should you do if the dish you’re
preparing doesn’t
meet quality requirements for taste or texture? ANS Add flavoring, seasoning or flavored sauces if required. Remake if required. Q33: You have removed a roasted leg of lamb from the oven. What must you do before carve it to help ensure optimum taste and texture? ANS Step 1 Cook the meat a little less than required to allow for carry-over cooking. If you wish to serve the meat at the medium stage, cook the meat to medium-rare. Cook the meat to the medium well-
done stage to kill harmful bacteria and parasites sometimes found in the meat. Step 2 Place the cooked meat onto a pre-heated tray and cover it with a clean damp kitchen cloth or aluminum foil. Then place the tray in a warm position for 15 to 25 minutes. Ideal positions are on top of a warm bain-marie or in a warm oven with the door left open. This helps prevent the meat from becoming too cool before it is served. Step 3 When the meat has rested and the juices have settled, it's ready to be carved, without excessive moisture, color and flavor loss. Q34: What type and texture of meat is suitable for stewing? ANS meats suitable for stewing are tough cuts with more connective tissue. Examples include beef (chuck, brisket), pork (shoulder, butt), lamb (shoulder, shank), veal (shoulder, shank), chicken (thighs, drumsticks), turkey (thighs, drumsticks), and game meats (venison, rabbit, wild boar). The slow, moist cooking method of stewing helps break down collagen, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. Lean, tender cuts are not ideal for stewing. Q35: Your roasted meat is dry. How could you prevent this happening in the future? ANS Lard or bard low-fat cuts of meat to add moisture and flavor. Baste during cooking process. Q36: From which countries did the following traditional dishes originate. ANS - Buffalo wings: America - Beef stroganoff: Russia - Wiener schnitzel: Austria - Veal scallopini: Italy - Souvlaki: Greece - Massaman beef curry: Thailand - Steak and kidney pudding: England

Pâté is a meat paste often made with offal. Original from Belgium. Estofado
Estofado is one of the basic stocks in French cuisine Blanquette
Blanquette is a white stew made from lamb, veal or chicken with a rich velvety sauce. Original from France. Q38: Why would you add marinade to meat? ANS_
Marinating is the process of immersing cleaned and trimmed meat into a cooked or uncooked cold liquid.
This is done to tenderize tough meat cuts before cooking or to provide additional flavor and moisture to tender cuts.
The length of time spent in the marinade depends on the type and nature of the meat. Tender meat cuts may only require a couple of hours to acquire new flavors while tougher. cuts may need to be marinated for several days to tenderize it. Q39: Match the preparation task to each cut or type of meat. Cut or type of meat

Q40: Look at the preparation steps for these dishes. What preparation tasks are utilized in each recipe? Grilled sirloin steak
Preheat the bar grill, one side on full heat, one side on half heat. Trim the steak of excess fat and flatten with a meat hammer to an even thickness. Grilling Roast leg of pork with sage and onion stuffing
Remove the bone from the leg of pork. Open the boned leg out to form a rectangle of even thickness. You may need to trim meat from one area and move it to another to do this. Mix all stuffing ingredients together well and season to taste. Add more breadcrumbs or liquid as required. Arrange the stuffing in a line lengthwise down the middle of the opened-out leg. Evenly and tightly roll the leg meat around the stuffing and truss using butcher’s net
or string. Roasting & stuffing Barbequed spareribs.
Sweat the onion and garlic in the peanut oil over low heat. Mix in the sesame oil, vinegar, tomato purée, honey, stock, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, ginger, and thyme. Season with pepper and salt. Bring the marinade/barbeque sauce to the boil and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool. Trim the spareribs of excess fat and sinew. Cut in between the ribs to get four equal slab portions or cut in between each rib to get individual ribs. Place the prepared ribs into the cooled marinade, cover and leave overnight. Sweating, mixing, seasoning, marinating, boiling, simmering, trimming, cutting. Q41: Using the recipes listed in Q40, what are the two methods of cookery used? ANS_
Braising
Grilling Q42: What does ‘ageing’
meat mean, and for what reasons do you age meat? ANS_ Ageing is a process where meat is held under controlled refrigerated conditions to allow natural enzymes to break down red meat proteins. The ageing process significantly enefits meat quality by providing additional flavor and tenderness.
Q43: Outline the steps involved in roasting quality cuts of beef, veal, lamb or pork (including the required cooking temperature). ANS_
Lard lean meats before roasting.
Season with pepper, salt, herbs and spices prior to sealing.
Always start the cooking process in a hot oven (220 to 230°C) or over hot coals to seal in the juices. Once the sealing process is complete, the heat is reduced to 180°C. This temperature may be varied depending on the size of the meat as well as the form of roasting used.
Trim away excess fat and sinew before cooking.
Roast meat cuts that contain a layer of fat, such as beef strip-loin with the fat side up. This allows the melting fat to further baste the meat through the roasting process. It also helps to slow down moisture loss through evaporation. Consider placing the meat on a mirepoix of vegetables. This holds the meat out of the fat preserving the nutritional value, prevents the meat sticking to the pan and adds additional flavour to the roasting juices.
Allow roasted meat to rest before carving and serving. Q44: How should you care for and maintain your knives
Sharpen your knife on a regular basis, especially between tasks which may have blunted the blade.
Regularly check the handle, rivets and tang of your knife for cracks or wear and tear. A cracked handle is both a safety and hygiene hazard.
Check the blade for nicks or deep scratches. These can reduce the structural integrity of the blade.
Oil carbon steel blades after cleaning to prevent rusting. Q45: List four different types of knives, tools or equipment you might use when roasting meat. ANS •

ANS Meat mincer (The meat is then pushed through a hole in the tray where it is broken down by a rotating worm-type screw. A rotating blade then finely chops the meat before pushing it through a holed plate as mincemeat) Meat slicer (Use an electric slicer to cut even slices of cooked or smoked meat. Adjust the slicing blade to suit the desired thickness. You can see a slicer in action at any butcher or delicatessen.) Food processors, blenders and mixers (These high-speed devices are used to chop, grind or blend meat and other dry ingredients in a matter of seconds. They greatly reduce preparation time for meat pâtés and terrines.) Bowl chopper (Bowl choppers, also known as silent cutters, are used to finely chop trimmed and diced meat in preparation for terrines and other similar dishes. You place the prepared meat in an open hemispherical stainless-steel bowl which slowly rotates in a circular fashion. around a horizontal axis. As the bowl rotates, it brings the meat into contact with a set of rotating sickles- shaped blades which chop and reduce the size of the meat. The longer the meat is left to pass through the rotating blades, the finer the result.) Q63: List five safe operating practices when using bladed equipment such as food processors, bowl choppers and mincers. ANS
Set equipment and blades up correctly according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
Avoid contact with any moving parts. This includes your fingers, hands, knives and other utensils.
