Terrific easy cake for gatherings. And because it’s gluten-free and lactose free, everyone can enjoy it! Whole Orange Cake If you’ve spent a lifetime peeling oranges, it might sound strange that this cake is made using a whole orange. But here’s the thing – as with lemons and limes, most of the orange flavour is in the rind. You will get way better orange flavour by mixing 1 tablespoon of finely grated orange zest into, say, Vanilla Frosting, rather than 1/4 cup of orange juice....

An Éclairs recipe anyone can make If you’ve always wanted to make éclairs but never had the confidence, this is the recipe for you! I’ve provided a concise how-to video and my recipe includes a few little steps to make it extra foolproof with better results. For example, cooling the choux pastry batter before adding the eggs (no scrambling risk, incorporates better) and opening the oven door to release steam to be extra sure our éclair buns come out crispy!...

This recipe is part of a series using leftover Mexican Pulled Pork Carnitas, a recipe I shared a few weeks ago. So I’ve made this using leftover pulled pork but you can also make this with shredded or diced chicken or beef. Discovering creative uses for spring roll wrappers (egg roll wrappers) was a revelation. I basically use it as filo pastry – which I never use because I find it so fiddly to do the layers and brushing each layer with butter....

Real Arancini Balls are deep fried. They are insanely addictive, with a golden crunchy crumb and creamy cheesy risotto on the inside. I could eat them every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Which is why I am so glad that there are no Italian delis in my area, otherwise I’d be in real trouble. But I need an Arancini fix every now and then. Plus risotto is a regular in my midweek meal rotation and more often than not there will be leftovers, possibly because my subconscious makes me cook up an extra large batch just so I have an excuse to make Arancini Balls....

Served alongside charred peppers and onion, this meal is a kaleidoscope of colours no one can resist! Chicken Fajitas – healthy and seriously delish! Whenever I see rainbow coloured capsicum on sale at the stores, I immediately think of Fajitas. I know, I know, full points for (un)originality. Though to be fair, when I see just redcapsicum on sale, my first thought is the not so well known Spanish Romesco Sauce....

Using this foolproof method of poaching chicken breast you will never again end up with a dry, overcooked chicken! Honestly, poaching chicken breast is one of the most difficult things to master, even the experts use thermometers to get it exactly right, or they use fancy techniques like sous-vide (sealing meat in vacuum packs and submerging them in hot water maintained at an exact temperature). The home method is so simple and no fail....

I love doing homemade version of chicken simmer sauces you can purchase in jars, like the Everyday Chicken Curry sauce. Homemade is a gazillion times more delicious! Honey Mustard Chicken How many Aussies reading this remember this jingle from the 90’s?? ? I feel like Chicken Tonight, like Chicken Tonight! ? It was for an advert for a range of simmer sauces called “Chicken Tonight” sold in jars at supermarkets....

“My Huevos Rancheros are served in tortilla bowls that are made by moulding pan fried tortillas in bowls. The tortilla bowls are a bit puffed and chewy, making them perfect for tearing bits off to scoop up the tomato filling and egg.” Huevos Rancheros is a traditional Mexican breakfast that consists of a fried egg on a fried tortilla with a spicy tomato sauce. One of the things I like to do is take a traditional dish and put my spin on it....

Tonight we’re eating out – but in!!! I just wanted to do something to help our restaurant industry The COVID-19 pandemic has obliterated our restaurant industry. But they are rising from the ashes, emerging with innovative new offerings for these times. Multi-course fine dining at home, elite produce previously reserved for hatted restaurants, home delivery cocktails. They are working their guts out to survive and keep their staff employed. And I just wanted to do something to help....

Italian Meatball recipe! I don’t want to blow my own horn, but I’m determined to do everything I can to make you want to try these meatballs and if that means a mini brag sheet, then so be it. So here we go: “Your meatball recipe is the same as my Italian Nonna! Love the idea of soaking the bread in onion juice rather than milk….. Will make them like this from now on (won’t tell Nonna!...

Don’t let the simplicity of this recipe fool you. This is knock-your-socks-off good, and proof that you can eat amazing food on a budget. “I’ll be honest and say I thought this would be lacking in flavour because I’m used to trying curries from scratch rather than with curry powder……How wrong was I?? I apologise wholeheartedly Nagi!! Amazing recipe, please try this people. Tasty, easy, mind blowingly awesome. xx” – Emily, 10 April 2020...

This muffin recipe is a great base recipe for sweet muffins. The chocolate chips can be substituted with anything you want. Blueberries, raspberries, nuts, apple – let your imagination run wild! Muffins are one of those recipes that many people think / say are really easy to make but in actual fact, I think a lot come out quite disappointing. The biggest problem being muffins that are dry and hard....

David Chang. Ramen obsessed, quirky, edgy, brash, entrepreneur, rebel – a handful of words that only scratch the surface to describe this Korean-American chef who has become an unlikely superstar in the culinary world. Named in the Times Top 100 Most Influential People in 2010, he’s known for his “bad boy” attitude, like his “no reservations, no vegetarian options” policy and claiming Californian chefs “don’t manipulate food, they just put figs on a plate....

Stir Fried Prawns Fact: Even the most seasoned of cooks can struggle with a Prawn Stir Fry. Timing everything so the prawns are perfectly cooked when the vegetables are tender-crisp, while the stir fry sauce has thickened to the right consistency is actually harder to nail than it sounds. More often than not, something will be not quite perfect. The natural tendency is the focus on not overcooking the prawns (a dry, chewy crime!...

Prawn dipping sauces It’s really worth making your own dipping sauces when you’ve invested in fresh juicy prawns. The jarred stuff lacks the fresh flavour of homemade seafood sauces and just doesn’t do prawns justice! A couple of weeks ago, we catered my mother’s annual Christmas party for 30 of her friends. I’ve noticed that we get approached to do this every 2nd year. I think that the organisers assume that we’re scarred by the experience (something to do with our bedraggled appearance at the end?...

I’ve also included directions for using store bought pastry sheets because the steps are the same for the baking part. Quiche crust recipe This is my recipe for quiche crust which I’m publishing separately so it’s handy to reference for the quiche recipes I’ve shared and the many more I will inevitably share over the years! Use this recipe if: you want to make a homemade quiche crust from scratch; or you have store bought shortcrust pastry – frozen or refrigerated....

Firecracker Beef “I need a spicy Asian food fix!” It’s a well-known wail regularly heard from me, especially during intensive periods of non-Asian food cooking work, like during the making of the cookbook. Lovers of Asian food will understand exactly what I mean. It’s a recurring taste craving that, when left unsatisfied for too long, rears its head like a waking beast. The satisfaction the beast seeks is particular. It’s chilli-laced, big-flavoured Asian food....

These are so good they can be eaten plain. Or toss them in your favourite sauce, or serve it on the side. I’ve provided a selection of sauces for these crispy baked wings in the recipe below! Truly crispy oven baked wings This recipe for how to make Crispy Oven Baked Wings is a discovery by the genius folk over at Cook’s Illustrated. Being the food nerd I am, I really enjoy how Cook’s Illustrated explains the science behind why they do things in a particular way....
