Pickled Jalapeño’s

I love the flavour of chilli (peppers) but I am a novice when it comes to heat. I am a lot better than I used to be, I used to find satay sauce hot. After years of building up my tolerance, I can now take a mid range heat. My husband on the other hand, […]

Mexican Rice with Chicken, Black Beans & Quinoa

How about some super healthy mexican? Completely guilt free… not a trace of cheese or sour cream in sight! While this recipe may not be quite authentic, it’s a bit of a concoction I came up with, adding a bit of this and that until it came together, but boy did it taste good! I’m […]

Cherry Chocolate Crackles

(gluten, dairy, soy, egg & nut free) I’m not sure if I forgot just how good they are, or if these ones were just really good, but I think we need to reclaim the good old chocolate crackle back from the kids table. I became so obsessed with making chocolate crackles this week, I was […]

Mixed Mushroom & Thyme Risotto with Lemon Infused Oil

(gluten, egg, soy & nut free ) A good risotto is a labour of love, and like all good love stories, I’ve found a little alcohol never goes astray 😉 There is a half a glass of wine in this recipe, which leaves plenty for you to enjoy a glass or two during the 30-40 […]

Char Sui Pork & Prawn Rice Paper Rolls

(gluten, dairy, egg & nut free) While the produce where I live in the Blue Mountains is great, it is lacking in diversity. Luckily I work in the Inner West of Sydney, which has a real mixing pot of cultures. I love going to different areas and visiting shops that have amazing food and produce available. […]

Cafe de Paris Butter with Steak

I love a good steak, my problem is that I am pretty bad at cooking them. I’d have a better chance of getting one of Adriano Zumbo’s cakes right, than I am of cooking a perfectly juicy, medium-rare steak. Luckily, this recipe has saved my steaks for years.  It is a recipe for Cafe de […]

Cumquat & Blood Orange Marmalade

When I was little, our neighbour had a huge cumquat tree that used to hang over our side of the fence. I loved them. I hadn’t seen them for years until I visited a friends house and they had a tree full of ripe fruit. I excitedly grabbed a handful and popped them straight into […]

Lemon & Parsley Chicken Schnitzel with Garlic Coleslaw

(gluten, dairy, egg, soy & nut free) I have been really trying to keep positive about changing my diet, but this weekend, I took a trip down self-pity lane. After a few weeks with no soy, I took my chance on a soy coffee, since soy came up as a mild intolerance. I haven’t had […]

Pork, Apple & Thyme Meatballs in Tomato Chilli Sauce

(gluten, dairy, egg, soy & nut free) I get excited about strange things. My local butcher sells mostly free range meat, and when I asked if they had any pork mince, they told me to pick whichever cut I wanted and they would mince it for me. For some reason, the idea of freshly minced […]

Lime, Lemongrass & Green Chilli Chicken

(gluten, dairy, egg, soy & nut free) This is one of my favourite chicken dishes. I’ve been cooking it for years, and was so happy to find that I can still have it. Just roughly chop up all the paste ingredients and throw them in a food processor. If you don’t have a processor, you […]
