Poulet a la moutarde de Dijon – Chicken with a Dijon Mustard Sauce
My interpretation of a classic French dish from the Burgundy region. The sauce is really moorish, I couldn’t get enough of it.
MasterChef Caption Contest
Inspired by the mad skills displayed on MasterChef I was inspired to light my sugar packets alight. I challenge you to create a great caption for this photo. Please add your caption in the comments (sorry I have no prizes)
Knotted Bread Treats – Lye Pretzels
Oh yeah its long weekend time!!! It is such a great day when you leave work on a Thursday and you know you won’t be back until next Wednesday. Clearly it’s time for some H-core eating. I’ve been slack again and haven’t blogged for a while (I am pretty sure I have apologised for that...
Furniture Shopping Cuisine – Köttbullar – Swedish IKEA Meatballs
Last weekend I was in need of a small coffee table so I decided to brave the crowds at IKEA, Rhodes. It was a bit rainy out so I think half of Sydney had the same idea so I had to circle the very cramped car park stalking patrons until a park became free. Upon...
Austray-Ya Day! – Kangaroo Tataki with Ponzu Sauce
Sadly, this year I missed Australia Day because I was in a jet lag induced coma, whereas usually I would have an alcohol induced coma. So to compensate I declared that Saturday would be my own personal National Day.
It’s Brinner Time – Breakfast Burritos
I have talked before about my love for Brinner (for those who are uneducated, it is breakfast for dinner). Brinner has a lot of charm as you can enjoy all those breakfast foods when you have time to prepare them, time to go shopping and most importantly are not hung over. Sometimes I dream about...
Yay New Camera – Tangy Honey & Mustard Chicken
W00t W00t I have my first DSLR Camera. I have made the plunge. After an unsuccessful attempt to score one as a Christmas present (even after heavy suggestions for much of November and December), I have made the plunge and purchased one. I have spent the last three days going to every website, camera shop...
New Years Resolution – Grilled Trout with Lemon and Parsley
I have awarded myself the illustrious title of World’s Most Negligent Blogger. I have left my blog unattended for just over two months. If I had done the same with a puppy or a kitten the RSPCA would have locked me up for sure. I would love to write a great story about how I...
The 24 Hour Bug – Chocolate, Pandan and Coconut Tiramisu
Why is it that when you plan something, get excited, make preparations, get more excited and then go to bed you always wake up the next day sick. Somehow the 24 hour bug knows when to strike. It must be written into the damn virus’ genetic code. It sits dormant in your body until expectation...
The Fleeting Pleasure of Food – Bibimbap
Food is an amazing medium. It is both an impermanent and permanent form of art. Its presence is so fleeting that soon after it is created it is consumed by some hungry monster at the end of the table. However it remains a very permanent fixture in our lives as we all must eat to...
Crazy Cravings – Moroccan Lamb and Dukah Pizza
I’m Back, w00t!!! People have the strangest habits when it comes to food. I have friends that will crave poached eggs for afternoon tea and others that wouldn’t touch McD’s on a normal day but after a few beers two McAngus, twelve nuggets and an apple pie isn’t enough. I’m not sure what I crave...
Search for the Golden Ticket – Cherry Ripe Chocolate Ganache Tarts
There is something sort of magical about a chocolate bar. It is difficult to put your finger on what exactly it is. They are like a self contained dessert that can be enjoyed at anytime of day. There are numerous varieties so there is one for every persons taste. They are sold in a myriad...
Inspiration – Macadamia Dukkah Crusted Barramundi with Couscous
Food blogging is a strange beast. First comes an obsession (if you weren’t obsessed with food it would be a hard game to play), then comes the idea. Mine was to start a cooking blog where I could share all my crazy creations. I would never have guessed anybody would be so interested or I...
