Critical Success Points

  • Flatten the fillets without piercing them
  • Roll the meat very tightly to prevent leaks
  • Poach over low heat to keep a tender texture
  • Sear quickly over medium‑high heat to achieve a golden crust without burning

Safety Warnings

  • Handle boiling water carefully to avoid burns.
  • Hot oil can splatter: use a partial lid or a splatter guard.
