It's an established fact that I'm just a bit obsessed with brunch. It's also well documented that I'm a mushroom pusher from way back. And from the photos on this post I've quite possibly revealed how the story ends before it's even started... But if you skip the awards show and head straight to the party you'll miss the best ideas ever on how to get your daily Vitamin D, and that would be such a shame. So lets talk for a moment about Vitamin D, ok? Great. The mighty D is a vitamin … [Read more...]
Garlic Rainbow Chard & Chipotle Spiced Seeds
There's been a lot of cake around here lately. A lot. But there's only so much cake one girl can eat (or so the waistband of my pants tells me). So I figured it was high time for something veggie based... No, not veggie based like all those cakes, but simple sautéed green veggies. Wait, don't go! It's not all green veggies, I used rainbow ones, that must count for something. And they are brilliantly garlic-y. And I put spiced seeds on top. And an egg, a … [Read more...]
Quick-Pickle Marinated Mushrooms
Ah summer, a time of relaxation and recharge, of taking it easy and.... *insert movie-esque sound of screeching brakes* Ok, let's try that again. Ah summer, a time that should be all about relaxation and recharge but it seems life pays little attention to the seasons or the temperature or the shade of blue blanketing the sky, and simply keeps heaping on the demands. Summer, at least here in Australia, is nearly more manic than the rest of the year. While we should be swapping indoor … [Read more...]
Asparagus & Smoked Salmon Egg Cups
Remember how I said that I'd been inspired by an asparagus delivery to create a stack of seasonal Spring-inspired recipes? This is the second of those, because brunch. I've been seeing baked egg cups everywhere lately but they're usually lined with ham and have little other than an egg in the centre. Staring at the bunches of asparagus in my fridge reminded me of little trees, and before I knew it I'd created a forrest of spears in salmon lined cups and baked it all together with … [Read more...]
Roasted Rainbow Winter Vegetables
A week or two ago inspiration landed on my front step. It came in the form of a simply gorgeous hamper of winter fruit and veggies from the lovely people at Sydney Markets, and it arrived just in time. You see kitchen motivation at that point had been severely lacking -- I'll blame it on winter although winter isn't fully to blame -- but after a day or two of staring at that box of colour a trickle turned into a flood and before I knew it I had ideas spinning around like little tornados … [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...]
Green Herb Pesto & In My Kitchen: April 2014
If you haven't noticed I'm rather prolific over on Instagram... ahem, and therefore each time I pull together a list for In My Kitchen I simply scroll back through photos shared since the last post to work out what's been going on. There is a bit of a method to the madness, even if the resulting collections appear as slightly randomly grouped items all in one place. That said my life is slightly random when put all in one place, so it fits. Anyway, it's once again time to link up with Celia … [Read more...]
