In the last cookbook update, I chirpily reported that the recipes had been created, the manuscript written, and I’d made a good dent in photographing the recipes. That’s pretty much the cookbook done, things should be slowing down, right? WRONG!!! If anything the last 2 1/2 months have been the hardest in this cookbook making process. Take a peek in my camera roll to see what’s been going on!...

At the centre of it all, the pride and joy of my lunch – a classic Aussie Roast Lamb Leg with a flavour packed gravy. It’s Lambalicious!! After more ideas? Browse all my roast lamb recipes! 2 1/2 years ago, I was what I call “internet shy”. I tried to avoid having an internet presence. I had Facebook but rarely used it. I never left messages on blogs even if I tried and loved a recipe....

Delicious eaten plain. Magical used in this Ottolenghi Cauliflower Salad! Welcome to Day 15 of the inaugural Holiday Salad Marathon, where I’m sharing 30 salads in a row through to Christmas Eve. Something different to the usual sugar-loaded baking countdowns!! Though not technically a salad as such, this is a good life skill to have and a precursor to a wonderful cauliflower recipe I’m sharing tomorrow: Roasted Cauliflower I’ve always said that cauliflower is one of the greatest vegetables to roast, transforming from dry and tasteless to soft, sweet and juicy with terrific caramelised edges....

“We almost went under when the beer taxes changed,” Bee Mead maker Anton Balog said. “I don’t want to dwell on those dark times. But we had to explore other options, and that’s when we started making sparkling Mead.” Those words. Gosh, they hit home. They will be familiar words to any business owner. Have I ever told you how RecipeTin Eats was born? Well, I dedicated almost a year of my life creating an iPhone/iPad recipe organiser app called RecipeTin App (i....

Singapore Noodles recipe Singapore Noodles are so popular here in Australia that it appears on the menu of most suburban Chinese restaurants, whether they serve other Singaporian dishes or not. Though if you seek out Singapore Noodles in Singapore, it will elude you as much as the mythical notion that there are koalas in every Aussie backyard. And that’s ok. Singapore Noodles are delicious, and we will always love it!...

A really quick Couscous Salad This is a 12 minute meal. It’s also a no cook meal. Which means no matter how hot, how tired and how hangry you are (no typo there), or even if you’ve been cooking non stop all day since 7 am, up to your elbows in batter and pasta sauces (🙋🏻‍♀️), you can still muster up the energy for a seriously tasty bowl of deliciousness that requires minimal effort....

I only wish I had the foresight to take a photo when I was making the Satay Chicken with Peanut Sauce and it went drastically wrong. In preparation for sharing that recipe, I tested out a few of my favourite peanut sauce recipes, trying to decide which to share. One of the recipes called for simmering the sauce before pureeing it. I FORGOT that pureeing hot liquid = disaster. Do you know what happens when you do this?...

To check if your baking powder is still active, pour 1/4 cup boiling water over 1/2 tsp baking powder. If it bubbles, it’s still good. If not, it’s no good! Background Dead baking powder is a common cause of cakes not rising, even if it’s not past the due date. This is because factors such as heat, humidity and jars not properly sealed will reduce the rising power of baking powder....

It dawned on me the other week that I haven’t shared a fun recipe in quite a while. “Fun” being things like bite size French Toast Bites (have you tried them?? They’re fabulous – and fast!), Mini Potato Gratin Stacks, Mini Pizzas made in Garlic Bread Cups. That sort of thing. Tasty, fun food. And these Cheeseburger Party Meatballs are the first thing that popped into my mind when I found a packet of beef mince in the fridge....

Don’t be fooled by recipes claiming to be “better than take out” that call for nothing more than soy sauce for flavour. It takes more than that for an authentic chicken fried rice – just ask your friendly local Chinese restaurant!! Chicken Fried Rice After Monday’s simple yet-myth-busting How To Cook Rice post, I thought I’d follow up with a quick ‘n easy recipe today. Using rice of course. My “House Special” chicken fried rice!...

Coconut Rice Truly fluffy coconut rice eluded me for years. I felt like I tried every variation possible, but when I lifted the lid, I’d stare at dismay at into a pot of mushy rice, thick with coconut milk scum. Usually with unevenly cooked rice grains – some hard, some overly soft – and almost always with a scorched base. The making of my cookbook gave me the excuse I needed to commit to cracking coconut rice, once and for all....

Creamy Avocado Dressing This is a dressing that uses avocado to make it creamy, rather than mayonnaise or loads of oil. It doesn’t taste very avocado-ey because avocados are dense so it needs to be thinned out to make it pourable as a dressing. Rather, think of the avocado as a better-for-you means to get a creamy dressing fix! Excellent use for avocados that are a bit overripe or with brown spotty bits that don’t look appealing enough to use in salads....

Fork-tender, authentic Greek Slow Roast Leg of Lamb All around the world this weekend, there will be gatherings of family and friends to celebrate Easter. I was quite interested to learn that ham is very popular in America. Here in Australia, it’s all about roast lamb and seafood.
