Simple yet stylish! Easy barbecue recipes for beginners

You want to enjoy a barbecue outdoors, but as a beginner, you might be wondering what kind of menu to make, what side dishes to make in addition to meat, and so on.
So this time, we'll introduce you to some stylish recipes that are easy even for barbecue beginners and look great too!

A foil-baked arrangement that simply involves wrapping food in aluminum foil and baking it.

First, let's look at foil baking, which is quick and easy to prepare. You can also experiment with different seasonings by using foil in a creative way.

Salmon and onion baked in foil

<Materials>: 2 pieces of raw salmon
1 onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Black pepper to taste
1 sprig of dill (herb)

<How to make>

1. Place two pieces of foil, cut into 30cm pieces, on top of each other, line with 5mm sliced onions, and place two slices of raw salmon on top.
2. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and black pepper, garnish with torn dill (herbs) and cover with new foil.
3. Depending on the heat, place on a wire rack and it will be steamed in about 10 minutes.

The herbal aroma instantly adds a touch of Western flavor. If you can't get fresh herbs, you can substitute them with herb salt or dried herbs. You don't have to stick to dill; parsley or oregano will also work deliciously.

Cod Acquapazza Style

<Materials>: 2 pieces of raw cod
10 clams
1 garlic clove
1/8 yellow bell pepper
100cc white wine
1/2 teaspoon herb salt
2 tablespoons olive oil

<How to make>

1. Place raw cod, clams, sliced garlic, cherry tomatoes, and yellow peppers on two layers of foil.
2. Add white wine, herb salt, and olive oil and wrap in another piece of foil.
3. Place on the wire rack and steam for about 10 minutes until the clams open.

Garnish with Italian parsley for a vibrant color.

A photogenic easy hamburger that's a hit with kids!

Hamburgers are also popular with children!

The main dish is also important at a barbecue. But if you think that rice balls might not look as stylish, why not try a photogenic hamburger instead?

How to make patties (for 10 pieces)

Hamburger patties are made with ground meat. Ground meat is prone to bacterial growth, and making it outside means a lot of dishes to wash, so we recommend making it at home and putting it in an insulated bag with ice packs to take to the barbecue venue.

<Materials>: 1kg of ground beef and pork
3 eggs
50g breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon salt

<How to make>

1. Mix the above ingredients well and form into a hamburger shape.
2. Once shaped, place on aluminum foil or plastic wrap and chill or freeze in the freezer until you are ready to go.
3. At the venue, brown both sides in a frying pan or on a hot plate, then steam-cook with a lid or aluminum foil to ensure the center is cooked thoroughly, making the meat plump and juicy.

Simply top the patty with your favorite vegetables such as lettuce, tomato, and grilled onion, season with ketchup and mustard, and you'll have a classic burger.

Easy arrangements add variety!

As long as you have a bun and a patty, you can customize it however you like! You can also add cheese or a fried egg, or use salsa, barbecue sauce, or grilled meat sauce instead of the sauce.
When taking photos, using props like cute picks and colorful paper plates will make them look even better. If you use iron skewers, which are used to skewer barbecued meat, you can make your photos look even wilder!

A surprising and delicious hot dessert made with fruit!

After enjoying a full barbecue, you're bound to crave something sweet. While it's great to have a pre-made dessert on hand, a dessert that simply involves grilling fruit on a grill is also easy and delicious, and is unique to barbecues!

Grilled pineapple

These skewers made with canned pineapple look adorable and are sure to be a hit with kids. Another great thing about them is that you don't have to cut the fruit; you can just take the whole can to the barbecue.
It's delicious enough just to cut it into bite-sized pieces, put it on a skewer, and bake it as is, but we recommend adding cinnamon sugar for a slightly richer, more special hot dessert.

Baked Chocolate Banana

A classic BBQ dessert is toasting marshmallows on chopsticks over the embers. If you want to try something a little different, we recommend the beloved "chocolate banana"! The ingredients and method are very simple.

<Materials>: banana
Chocolate bar

<How to make>

1. Place a banana with 1/3 of its skin peeled on a piece of aluminum foil cut to about 30 cm.
2. Make a vertical slit in the peeled part, place about 4 bars of chocolate between the slits without overlapping, wrap in foil and steam on a wire rack for 5 to 10 minutes until the chocolate is melted.

Banana peels have the property of turning black when heated, so you might be surprised to see the bananas turn completely black when they're finished, but the melted chocolate will coat the softened bananas and make the perfect dessert!
