Being a lifelong Italophile there aren't many Italian recipes I've tried and not loved, but being a lifelong hater of pork as well as offal the idea of a chicken liver-stuffed rolled piece of pork never appealed to me. And I have to say that even now, after having made this recipe and enjoyed it, [...]
I've been wanting to try out a one pan chicken and rice dish for so long, and what I had in mind was inspired by a paella but was even less effort, and I was after the kind of midweek meal that ticks all the boxes. Classic Mediterranean flavours have been something I'm stuck on, [...]
It seems like no matter how many times I ask my kids what they feel like for dinner they always have the same answers: lasagne, Mexican, or pizza. So it was nice to get a different response when one came back with "buttermilk fried chicken". Off I went to Google for some clue as to [...]
Don't let the picture full of brown fool you, they might be hard to photograph in a pretty way but these ribs will be a hit. They came about because my three older kids all love going out to a popular restaurant that is known for their fall off the bone sticky ribs. Taking my [...]
It's no exaggeration to say that buying a new BBQ late last year has transformed our cooking. We opted for a gas model made by leading BBQ brand Weber, despite everyone saying no! not gas! don't do it! it tastes shit! And while I can't speak for all gas BBQ's there's no question that the [...]
I love Mexican food, and since becoming vegan Mexican food has shot even further up the list by being one of the best vegan -friendly cuisines. With such a heavy reliance of fresh plant based produce and healthy grains, and with some great dairy substitutes now widely available, it one of the easiest things I [...]
I know it's definitely not soup weather in November in Sydney, but as I attempted to clean up my camera roll I realised that the whole past year was a chronicle of what I spent my days cooking in my cafe. In order to upload daily to Instagram and Facebook I tried to snap a [...]
There is a bit of time needed for this, but most of it is the slow cooking of the pork and the rest can be taken care of in the last hour or so. And the results are more than worth it. For the pork I allow eight hours in the slow cooker or four [...]
As soon as I even heard of ricotta gnocchi I knew they would be amazing. They're soft and light, and do away with the tedious and more time consuming process involved in making regular potato gnocchi. You can have these ready for the pot in under half an hour, less the more you make them. [...]
Back when I first shared this recipe I was really proud of trying something new that, for so many years, was completely off my taste radar. I had no idea that it would become such a popular and frequently made meal, possibly the go-to dish when we want something hearty and full of flavour. Obviously [...]
