Crispy Beer Battered Fish

Don’t believe me? Just LISTEN to the crunch in the recipe video! Serve with French fries for the ultimate fish ‘n chips experience at home. Crispy Beer Battered Fish When it comes to fish, a fry batter made with beer yields the best result for a light, puffy, ultra crispy coating that stays crispy well beyond the time it takes to serve and eat it. It’s the fish batter used by all the best fish ‘n chips shops....

Mediterranean Brown Rice Salad

You didn’t really think I’d share a rather dull (but life essential) post for how to cook brown rice without following it up with an extremely delicious way to use it, did you?? Brown Rice Salad This is a Brown Rice Salad that aspires to be everything you expect a rice salad to be (healthy, filling, fresh) and everything you don’t expect it to be (can’t-stop-eating-it-good). It’s also a rice salad that will surprise those of you who grew up not realising such a thing existed....

Oven Pork Ribs With Barbecue Sauce

This is a reader-favourite recipe included by popular demand in my debut cookbook “Dinner”! Pork Ribs recipe If you nibble daintily at a rib, holding it delicately between 2 fingers, and wipe your fingers clean with linen napkins, you and I will probably never be friends. If you grab them with your hands, devour with gusto, get sauce all over your mouth, smearing up towards your cheekbones, then drop the bones sucked dry of every fibre of meat and sauce so they clatter dramatically on your plate, then noisily suck each and every one of your fingers clean of all that sticky barbecue sauce…....

Broccoli Chicken Fritters

Flavoured with garlic and parmesan, these fritters are a tasty meal or snack, or mini burgers. There’s a whole giant head of broccoli hidden in these!! Broccoli Chicken Fritters I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again (and will probably keep saying it until the end of time) – you can fritter anything! (Just look at my Pakora recipe for further proof!) And today, we’re frittering broccoli and chicken....

Cauliflower Rice

Cook it in the microwave, oven or stove. Use the method that best works for you! Cauliflower Rice Cauliflower masquerading as rice. Is it as good as rice? No. And anyone who tells you otherwise is either lying, or doesn’t know what tasty food is.😂 But is it a very good healthy substitute for rice that can be made to be delicious in its own right? YES IT IS! So what does it taste like?...

Celeriac Soup

Celeriac Soup Celeriac, that knobbly brown root vegetable that sits quietly in the corner of your grocery store, is an unsung hero in the vegetable world. I thought it’s about time I brought it into the limelight in a dish that stars in this low-carb wonder! Celeriac is, as you’d guess, part of the celery family. The leaves and stems in fact look just like skinny celery stalks. However you only eat the chunky root bulb of celeriac, and it’s often sold with just this part....

Chow Mein

This is a reader-favourite recipe included by popular demand in my debut cookbook “Dinner”! Chow Mein I want to say that Chow Mein is my favourite noodle-child but I’m worried that I’ve said that in another recipe (or two… or three… 😂). Because there is, after all, some heavy hitting noodle competition in this big wide world. Pad Thai, Pad See Ew (Thai Stir Fried Noodles), Singapore Noodles, Yakisoba (Japanese noodles) – to name just a few....

Coq Au Vin

Coq au Vin – French chicken stew Chicken stews are delightful and criminally underrated in my book. Too often they play second fiddle to the divas of the stew world like lamb shanks, braised short ribs and curries. Maybe it’s because chicken as a meat is considered somewhat “common”? As a result, delicious and hardworking dishes like this Everyday Chicken Stew (with crispy skin!) or this weeknight Fast Chicken Stew just don’t get their share of the love they deserve....

Epic Chunky Beef And Mushroom Pie

This is the sort of food that makes me do the happy dance. Literally. I took a massive spoonful and was jumping up and down with glee. It was everything I had hoped it would be, and more. Non foodies will find it hard to understand the elation you feel when you make something that is this good. I mean, gravy even in its most basic form (and anything you smother in gravy) is fantastic....

Fries Seasoning

This is a simple spice blend that is a copycat of those jars of seasoning for fries sold in the spice aisle at supermarkets. It adds more flavour to French fries than using just plain salt, as well as a lovely warm red colour. This is a fairly small batch recipe but you probably won’t use it all in one go so store leftovers in an airtight container between uses....

Greek Lemon Orzo Salad Risoni

Greek Lemon Orzo Salad (Risoni) I was going to post a cozy recipe today but it’s a stinking hot day here in Sydney (sorry to rub it in if you’re suffering through winter! 😉 ) and I literally can’t look at a big steaming pot of comfort food to even write up a recipe. So I’m saving it for next week when the weather cools down! I know it was only last Monday when I posted One Pot Italian Chicken with Risoni (PS Risoni in Australia = Orzo in much of the rest of the world) but I wanted to use up the leftover risoni....

Cranberry Sauce recipe originally published November 2015. Post updated with new recipe video added. No change to recipe – it’s still the same one I use and love! HOMEMADE CRANBERRY SAUCE IS AMAZING I tried store bought cranberry sauce once many years ago and it turned me right off it. It just tasted like….jam. I may as well have slathered my turkey with strawberry jam!

Honey Garlic Salmon

Honey Garlic Salmon recipe original published March 2015. Refreshed with new photos and video in 2017. HONEY GARLIC SALMON SAUCE This Honey Garlic Salmon recipe is all about the sauce. Just four simple pantry essentials in the right proportions – soy sauce, honey, garlic and vinegar. I used to just whisk up the Sauce and pour it over pan seared Salmon. Then I started adding the sauce into the skillet with the salmon, and that’s even better, so I decided it was time to refresh this recipe (which I posted originally posted in March 2015!...
