Set back from the hustle and bustle of Glebe Point Road, protected just enough by a veranda and front garden to be private, you'll find a wide-frontage house slightly at odds with the surrounding late century commercial properties. The exterior - quaint and unassuming, and the interior - cozy and comfortable, give nothing away to the passerby regarding the food or the chef contained within. Until you sit down, and the dishes begin to march out of the kitchen, you have no idea about the … [Read more...]
Vegetarian Pumpkin Spelt Lasagne
It was dreary during our last two days in NYC. The grey skies and misty drizzle encouraged the continuation of my hairdryer boycott and although we complained a bit, it didn't stop us from getting out of the apartment to enjoy the city. It was still dark as we headed to Laguardia at 6.30 am on Thursday morning. Arriving in Mexico eight or so hours later we were greeted with a stunning blue sky obscured only by night and an occasional passing wisp of a pretend cloud. On Friday evening … [Read more...]
Winter White Bean & Kale Soup
There is a saying in Australia - 'does what it says on the tin'. This is that, but without the tin. It is - depending on your hemisphere, the end or beginning of - winter, there is kale, and beans. Voila we have soup. I used proper dried white beans since I knew in the morning I wanted to make it for dinner, but canned works just fine. Kale is perfect but silverbeat, chard, or any dark leafy green would be just as good. Same deal wth the veggies - feel free to clean out the crisper. After … [Read more...]
Cauliflower & Broccoli Soup with Garlic Chips
I've been churning out the soups this winter. I make a huge pot on the weekend and take it for lunch pretty much every day for the next week. Sometimes I have it with bread, other times I stir through a handful of beans or some cooked quinoa or brown rice. This soup is amazingly creamy for having no cream in it. The garlic and oil make it a little bit fancy. ~~~ Creamy Vegan Broccoli & Cauliflower Soup INGREDIENTS: 1 brown onion, diced 1 large or 2 medium cloves garlic, peeled … [Read more...]
Sicilian Sardines
I have been trying to churn through pics of events to post a bit of a 'what I've been up to' wrap up - yeah, maybe soon. I've been working through a restaurant meal or two to share our delicious adventures - yeah, maybe soon. Not to mention it's been a bit cake-crazy round these parts lately! So instead, a savory QuickBites recipe. As much as I love a slightly complicated cake or a multi-dish seafood feast, sometimes you just want good food, fast. One pan, throw it all in, eat standing up at … [Read more...]
Pawpaw, Papaya & Summer Inspired Rice Paper Rolls
I had never eaten a Rice Paper Roll before moving to Sydney, for that matter I had never eaten Pawpaw or Papaya before going to the Cook Islands. It's not that I grew up sheltered, it's just that I grew up in the suburbs of America-land in the 80's and 90's - Chinese Food and Pizza was about as international as our town got back then... One of the first places RJ ever took me to eat was a brilliant little Asian hole-in-the-wall in Marrickville called Old Thanh Huong. That original visit … [Read more...]
