A return to his roots, Manu Feildel’s third cookbook French for Everyone, is packed with simple, rustic dishes. Honest and easy to prepare, this is food from the kitchen of a French home rather than that of a French restaurant. That's not to say you would turn down any of the dishes if they were served to you by a bistro-aproned waiter, but in juxtaposition to his second book, the techniques and recipes in French for Everyone are approachable enough to prepare at home. With options for … [Read more...]
Smokey BBQ Beans
Another one to work my way through drafts and archives... ------ Created originally to go with the brisket, sharing these beans now was spurred on by a stunningly disappointing serving of baked eggs experienced this morning at a local cafe. The eggs were fine, the beans however were sickly sweet and straight out of a can. Price and location aside I really wanted a good brunch, so I now feel the need to make these or these or this for cafe-in-my-kitchen baked eggs... Sometimes you … [Read more...]
Baked Coffee Doughnuts
I'm no stranger to waking up to the intoxicating smell of coffee. Growing up, the coffee pot was burbling away each morning before anyone was even out of bed, and both my parents drank it by the bucket. I however, other than a brief dalliance in collage involving late-night study-driven coffee consumption tarted up with copious amounts of milk and sugar, never joined club-coffee. Of course there has always been an affinity for coffee ice cream and tiramisu (seeing a trend?) -- but when … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: June 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month -- as seen over on Instagram --- in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK, ------ Kitchen shenanigans I'm currently a bit mad about this vegan butter I created on a whim. Three ingredients, so easy and so very good. I promise to share soon! ------ Spoils* from a paella class put on recently by Flavours of Spain. I … [Read more...]
End of Summer Sandwich & the Union Square Green Market – NYC
I don't do winter well. I'd take sweltering over cold any day -- and the fact that the lowest Sydney winter temps are still significantly higher than the north-east America-land ones I grew up with matters little when I have to get out of bed each morning to an un-heated apartment. Now Sydney has been gracing us with well above average late-autumn temps this year, but even so we are looking straight into three months of cold before things begin to look up again. It's about this time … [Read more...]
Preserved Limes and Kaffir Limes – Plus 3 Spice Blend Options
I've never been particularly good at the whole hostess gift thing. It's not that I don't have good intentions -- I see gorgeous ideas all the time -- but somehow anything remotely appropriate hides away in the recesses of my brain until the last moment when in a fit of oh-damn-I-forgot-again I simply grab a bottle of wine on the way out the door. However this past Easter we had plans with friends for a lazy Sunday lunch and for once I came up with an idea in advance. I had committed to … [Read more...]
