Brett Duke’s Salmon

By Hollie Harris

Chef Brett Duke from Cooroy RSL shares the secrets behind his mouth-watering seared salmon on mediterranean cous cous salad with a citrus yoghurt with our readers.”With 30 years experience my passion is fresh food cooked and served in as close to its natural state as possible. I believe fish should taste like fish and steak should taste like steak.”
Prior to working with Cooroy RSL, Brett has worked in 3 other RSL Clubs and lived on the coast for the past 20 years.”I love the beach and the hinterland, enjoy getting out for walks and a swim. I have a Thai wife so we travel to Thailand often – I love the food and the culture of Thailand.”
