Everyday Delicious.
Take a look, take your pick then take it to the kitchen!
I’ve had some dreadful Caesar salads in my time and I’m sure you have too – overly creamy and rich, heavily salted, made with poor-quality ingredients and manufactured dressing. Done well, however, this salad can be a real delight. I think the magic really lies in the dressing – it […]
Super salmon quiche This quiche is a really nice way to make a couple of salmon fillets stretch out for a family – it’s loaded with goodness and totally delicious. If you can, it’s great to eat salmon once a week as it’s very good for you. You can choose […]
Pork, sage and onion sausage rolls There aren’t many of us who don’t enjoy scoffing a sausage roll every now and then – they’re always the first thing to get snaffled up at a morning tea. But the ingredients list on the frozen ones at the supermarket can be scary. […]
Lamb cutlets with rotato rösti & fresh herb pistou Lamb rack is a beautiful cut, and great for a special treat – perfect or a date or a dinner party. It’s not exactly cheap though, so if you want, use lamb chops instead. Technically, one rack is supposed to feed […]
Chicken & basil macaroni cheese This is a nice little twist on a classic macaroni; I’ve added chicken for extra grunt and Parmesan, basil and garlic for a lovely Italian vibe. Sneaking in loads of spinach and peas, it’s a complete meal in a dish! If your budget permits, I […]
Coconut & vanilla banana loaf This is a perfect way to use those annoying bananas you swore you’d eat before they went spotty. It’s a buttery, almost cakey loaf, but that doesn’t mean you can’t put more butter on top! Or golden syrup for that matter. Delicious with a cuppa […]
Lamb & Rosemary Cannelloni Serves: 4-6 Prep time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 40 minutes While cannelloni takes a little more effort than just spooning sauce on cooked pasta, I think there’s something really nice about the whole process of making it, and it comes out of the oven looking rather […]
Healthy beef nachos with fresh avocado salsa Serves: 4-6 Prep time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 40 minutes Mike really loves nachos (he’s always requesting them for dinner), so I wanted to create a recipe with a healthy twist that was still utterly delicious. After all, real Mexican food isn’t meant […]
Fragrant Indian-spiced lamb curry with chickpeas Serves 4 This lamb curry is wonderfully aromatic and warming – and a great way to use a economical cut of lamb! The list of spices might look a little long, but you’ll find them all at your local supermarket and I think they […]
The best thing about this tasty Asian beef stir fry is as well as tasting delicious, it’s so quick and easy to prepare and costs less than $4 per serve. I use reduced salt soy sauce as this amount of standard soy sauce can make it too salty. You can […]
Lemony white chocolate mousse with lemon curd and buttercrumb This recipe isn’t sickeningly sweet – the mousse is very light with a fresh lemon vibe. The curd is lovely and zingy so it cuts through the creaminess nicely. You’ve got great textures going on in every mouthful with the crunchy […]
Beef shin ragù Amazing. Easy. Inexpensive. This recipe will make you look really, really good when you serve it. ‘Ragu’ more or less refers to a slow-cooked meaty sauce (Bolognese is a type of ragu). This beef shin (or beef cheek) version is a sensationally tasty dish, as the cut is […]
