A delicious salad that is a fully fledged, vibrant, flavourful stand alone meal, or goes well served with grilled halloumi, chicken, seafood, beef or lamb. My Herb + Beef Meatballs, or Lamb Koftas would be perfect with this salad. Use whatever seasonal vegetables you have from the garden or farmers market. Roasting or grilling the …
I love this salad, so fresh, crunchy and tangy. Serve it with grilled Lemongrass Chicken, bbq pork or prawns. It goes great with Peanut Sauce, or Lime + Ginger Peanut Dressing. It also lends itself to Salad in a Jar, for lunches or quick dinners. Asian Noodle Salad MAKES Serves 4 to 6 INGREDIENTS 250gm …
Do you ever see those gorgeous photos of crispy, fried, steamy potstickers (or gyoza) and only wish you could have a gluten free version? Well, your dreams are about to come true! Yes, the gluten free dough is a little tricky with a couple of steps, but once you’ve made it, it rolls and handles …
Ooh, these lamb koftas are quite the treat! They can be baked in a bulk batch, eat half for dinner in wraps or with mash, and freeze the other half. They defrost and reheat really well for a quick meal another time. You can also use seasonal veges and herbs in them! Drizzle some pesto + …
I used to make a version of these, which were famous at BBQ’s and everyone would be happy that my ‘bring a plate’ was Pork and Lime Patties. The recipe came from a cookbook I had (still have) called A Taste of Indochina by Jan Castorina. They were sticky, zesty, savoury mouth fulls, but delicate, …
This is THE recipe that you need to make the most of seasonal harvests, feed your family a healthy meal, and have everyone LOVE it. It is a classic, and you will make it again and again. You might know it as Zucchini Slice, but the best thing about my version is that you can …
OK, I know I said that chunky fritters were my favourite, but please don’t tell those Vege Fritters that these pancake style fritters are awesome! These are kid approved, cheesy (wouldn’t even know there was zucchini in there) fritters! Perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, snacks… especially if you have twenty million zucchini to use …
Traditional recipes for sauerkraut involves pounding the cabbage and creating a ‘self brine’, but I never have much success doing it that way. I also prefer a crunchier end result too. So instead, I finely shred the cabbage and julienne the carrots, then I add a wet brine, poured over the top. I use my Pickl-It jars, and this method always …

I never have much success doing that (or the time). So instead, I finely shred the cabbage and julienne the carrots, then I add a wet brine, poured over the top. I …
Risotto is a big time winner in our house. The kids always eat it, even when there is lots of vegetables in it. It’s cheesy, creamy and can be made with healthy bone broth and vege puree. Best of all, it can made in advance and reheated, or actually freezes and defrosts really well. Chicken …
