My Harvey Beef (not so classic) roast beef sanga

December 9, 2015 by date with a plate.

For the past month our house has been the epicentre of all things beef. Beef for dinner, beef for lunch, even beef for breakfast. But don’t get me wrong, this is a good thing, a very good thing. I have been busy cooking and reviewing Harvey Beef’s new marinated beef range. When I was asked by the team at Harvey Beef if I was up for the challenge, my enthusiastic “yes” was delivered without hesitation, not even the slightest of […]

Celeriac soup with crispy pancetta croutons

July 15, 2015 by date with a plate.

It can be mashed, used in soups, thinly sliced and added to a salad or even roasted. My boyfriend asked me to make this specific soup for him – he had seen it on River Cottage […]

I was inspired by a recipe from last year’s April Gourmet Traveller – ever since I saw this recipe I have been wanting to try it. Since I was too lazy to make my own hot cross buns […]

Le Creuset no-knead bread

February 2, 2015 by date with a plate.

Bread. One of the most simple and delicious pleasures there is in life. Hot from the oven and slathered in butter….it doesn’t get much better. Baking your own bread can be a bit of a skill. I have been lead down the garden path on multiple occasions by “easy”, “fool-proof” recipes – and ended up looking the fool as I took a flat, hard, inedible rock from my oven. That is until now. A colleague, who is as in love […]
