If you've stopped by in the hopes of finding the standard Easter spring flowers and bunny rabbits and church bonnets and pretty, pretty candy covered chocolate eggs - you're at the wrong place. If you've been here before you won't be surprised that there's not a pastel argyle jumper in sight. But Easter is just a few days away so it's only logical that I share an Easter recipe. Now I could claim that I'm being all 'lets plan ahead like a proper food blogger and make something for a holiday … [Read more...]
Caramelized Onion Jam
Why did I make Caramelized Onion Jam at 10 o'clock in the morning you ask? We'll blame it on the Pear Sandwich. I needed something to accompany the pears and cheese and greens. Something that is savory but pretends to be sweet. Something that is so ridiculously easy to make but pretends to be posh. Luck would have it there were actually onions on hand and some left over thyme in the fridge so a few onion cutting tears later and this goodness emerged. You could put it in a tart … [Read more...]
Pear, Goat Cheese and Caramelized Onion Jam Sandwich
Have you ever eaten a pear straight off a tree? It is an experience like no other - although closely related to biting into a peach still warm from the sun while standing at the edge of the orchard where they were grown, or munching on sweet corn only snapped off the stalk hours before hitting the table. In my About profile pic I'm standing in my mum's vineyard under a tree... a pear tree to be exact. Skirting the edges of the grape rows are a few pockets of these trees - remnants of an … [Read more...]
Turkish Bread!
I am a bit of a horror when it comes to testing. I'll find the link that doesn't work on a website, the scene that doesn't match in a movie, the overlooked typo in an article. I don't look for them, it just happens. And when I am looking for it, oh dear. I used to do a fair amount of website testing, the stuff I would find more often than not would insight a 'what on earth did you do to get that?'. I also have an un-canny ability to choose the most expensive item out of a group but that is a … [Read more...]
Turkish Baked Beans
We go out for brunch quite a bit. If you haven't worked it out yet, it is easily my favourite meal of the day. My preferred lazy Saturday afternoon cafe has amazing vegetarian baked beans, and I get them probably 80% of the time. When perusing the Turkish Flavours cookbook I happened on this Turkish Baked Beans recipe and knew it would be one of the items I'd make as part of our testing the cookbook feast. Have you entered the giveaway yet? If you can believe it I'd never cooked with … [Read more...]
Zucchini Fritters from Turkish Flavours
Happy St Paddy's Day, Internets! In honour of the day everyone becomes a little bit Irish - or if you live in most places along the eastern seaboard of America-land everyone becomes a lot bit Irish - I present to you a recipe from a Turkish cookbook. Wait, that doesn't sound quite right. I present to you brilliant green fritters that just so happen to come from a Turkish cookbook. That's a bit better. St Paddy's Day is a pretty important day to me - especially this year - but more on that … [Read more...]
Peach Pie Porridge
Back in January I posted those lovely Loaded Oats for the New Year and declared that I was going to attempt to share more real food and less desserts. Yeah, that lasted about a week. In an attempt to get back to real food I bring you a second porridge recipe for the second month of the year. It's only pretending a little bit to be dessert. The stone fruit this summer has been lovely and this treat was inspired by peach crumble and peach pie and peach cake, then all wrapped up in oats and … [Read more...]
