This soup is great if you’re not feeling well because it’s salty, it’s liquid and it has rice in it. 1 chicken breast, diced 2 chopped carrots 1/2 yellow onion finely diced 1 bacon rasher chopped 2 cloves garlic 1 litre of chicken stock 1/2 cup rice 2 tbs parsley Boil chicken, onion and garlic…

Broad bean dalliance
I went to the markets with the idea of making roast spatchcock with broad beans. I went too late and the spatchcock had sold out. The spatchcock I have had from Eveleigh Markets is the most succulent I have tasted. In any case I found myself some hours later with a batch of bread beans…
The good produce omelette.
With the leftover eggs and bacon from the Eveleigh Markets I decided to try actually cooking with them rather than serving them straight up and made an omelette. 4×110 gram eggs smokey bacon (chopped and pre cooked) 2 teaspoons of marinated goats feta with the herb oil it is infused with 1/4 spanish onion diced…
Great breakfast produce
This post is more about the produce choice than the meal itself. As you can see the meal is quite simple. Breakfast is my most favourite meal, specifically on the weekends. It’s such a treat to have a leisurely breakfast and I love the array of options within this simple meal that are inherently possible…

Flavoursome fish

Sasha makes a lovely simple dish by frying leatherjacket in butter, capers and chopped parsley with a drizzle of lemon juice served with dutch carrots, new…
Sunday soufflé
I’m playing a bit of catchup here. We’ve been super busy and I try and avoid the computer as much as I can when I’m not working. It’s hard to be as interesting writing about dishes you’ve cooked after some time has passed but I’ll persevere. Gruyere and parmesan cheese soufflé with steamed greens and…
A Cambodian flashback
Note: This recipe has nothing to do with happy pizza. If you’ve ever been to Cambodia you’ve probably eaten Fish Amok. It’s a divinely balanced creamy fish curry served in every Khmer kitchen you encounter and it’s really hard to get enough of this delicious national dish. Some places serve it in old pots, some…
What’s up Skip?
Warning. Some cute furry Australian native animals were most definitely harmed in order to create this meal. Kangaroo. It’s lean, tasty, good for you and a more environmentally friendly option than beef. Oh… and it’s cheap. There is so much going for this great source of nutrition I highly recommend trying it if you haven’t….
