Asian chicken noodle soup

Stumped for dinner inspiration? With the help of a supermarket roast chicken, this simple chicken noodle soup comes together in just 30 minutes. This chicken noodle soup is a bit like a cheat’s chicken pho. All the goodness of a long simmered soup, but in much less time. You can, of course, make a proper…

Five-ingredient strawberry galette

Have you seen the news? Here in Australia, people aren’t buying enough strawberries lately. Recent lockdowns have significantly reduced strawberry purchases as much as 50 per cent, forcing some farmers to sell below cost and others to spray out whole blocks of fruit. Strawberry farmers are pleading with Australians to take advantage of the low prices…

Dark chocolate and pear cake

This is my favourite cake ever. No really, I’ve baked many a cake in my day, but this one… this one I have baked once a fortnight over the past year. It’s made it to morning teas, dinner parties, brunch get togethers and sometimes just because I needed a cake to get me through the…

Taralli: the perfect aperitivo snack

If you’ve never had taralli, you’re missing out. I first encountered these in Rome; though they’re actually from the Puglia region. They can be flavoured with anything from olive oil, pepper to fennel seeds and are tiny bites of crunchy deliciousness. Kind of like a tiny, crunchy bagel that’s a perfect one size bite. They’re…

Oysters, picpoul and recovering after the Australian bushfires: Steve Feletti, Moonlight Flat Oysters

Steve Feletti has one rule. Do not pre-shuck oysters. Oysters should be alive at the point, he says. That’s the law in France – in Australia though, there’s no such law, something he laments. I head down the South Coast to chat with Steve about oysters, but also to see how the area is recovering…

Spinach and paneer curry (palak paneer)

I am a little embarrassed to admit that I have turned to YouTube to teach myself to make curry. Despite having Sri Lankan-Indian heritage, I’ve always been more comfortable with Western recipes than I have with South Asian ones – largely because I’ve found Western cooking much more approachable with easy to follow step-by-step recipes….

Black Pepper Tofu with Eggplant

We’ve been trying to eat less meat lately. It’s not that we don’t love a good steak or a chicken schnitzel, or that my all time weakness isn’t Korean Fried Chicken, it’s just that we’ve come to the realisation that we don’t need to eat quite as much meat as we were buying. Weeknight meals…

How to cook dahl: a step-by-step guide

Everyone should have a good dahl recipe in their repertoire. Healthy and intolerance-friendly (vegan, gluten and dairy-free), it’s one of those dishes that is as great at a dinner party as it is at a packed lunch. In current times of pandemic and pantry staples, dahl is your friend. Things like lentils, curry powders are…
