I love me some salmon for my din dins! Not only is it the tastiest darn fish on the market, but packs some powerful health punches to boot. Got some fussy fish eaters at your digs? Convince them to chow down on those Omega 3's by sticking some nuts to those pink...
Romesco Sauce is the duck’s nuts. It takes everything from ‘ho hum’ to ‘shit yeah!’ in a splodge of a spoonful. It’s especially awesome on grilled seafood and pork, or as a healthy dip with veg sticks.
Julia Child once said “a party without guacamole is just a meeting”. Oh wait, what? She said that about cake? Are you sure? Not the good green stuff? My bad. Well, sorry Julz, I hate to say it, but maybe that’s why you were a little on the heavy side? Less cake, more gauc!
Need some ideas for veggies to put with your big old dirty bird this festive feast? Roast pumpkin? Pretty standard. But voila, chuck in some cranberries and you’ve Christmassed the shit out of it!
If this was the Melbourne Cup, then this is the winning trifecta ticket. It’s cake, it’s chocolate, it’s coffee. What more do you want? I am partial to a bloody good coffee, and speaking of Melbourne, it is hands down the best place to get one. You have to tolerate a...
Never make eye contact while eating a banana. It’s a rule. Making eye contact while eating one of these banana muffins however, is perfectly acceptable. So are high fives and bum taps. These are a cinch to make. I whizz mine up in the food processor to make it even easier.

Cauliflower was one of those vegetables I hated as a kid. I was all like “but muuuuuuum, I don’t want to eat it! It smells like faaaaaaarts!’ (said in annoying, whiny kid-speak).Cauliflower took my rejection, bided his time, and now, 30 or so years later he is happy with his place as one of my […]
Here’s some good advice from me to you. When you have a spare 5 minutes (because that’s all you need) , whip up a batch of this stuff and have it on hand to turn your meal from ho-hum to kick-arse any day of the week. Seriously, spread this stuff everywhere! Bored...
I love Nasi Goreng. it brings back happy memories of our wedding week in Bali. I was some sort of Nasi Goreng monster that week. I swear I ate it every day, maybe sometimes twice a day. I was probably lucky I was still able to zip up my dress on the big day to […]
A few years ago, pesto was one of those posh things you ate out at lunch, you know, around the same time as we all decided to dip bread in balsamic vinegar and olive oil and pretend it was gourmet. Pesto has taken a bit of a backseat over the last couple of years, but...
