Roasted carrots with pearl barley, chickpeas & herbed crème fraîche

January 9, 2017 by date with a plate.

I blinked and suddenly I am living in Sydney, it’s 2017 and I haven’t posted in longer than I care to admit. I owe you all an apology, I have been completely neglectful of my little hobby blog, distracted by the excitement of this beautiful big city, but I have plans to rectify my lack of action in the year ahead. Plans that start immediately with getting back into the kitchen and cooking more consistently. Moving to Sydney really threw my world […]

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 […]

Perfect roast potatoes

May 25, 2015 by date with a plate.

Well, in my opinion, they need a little bit of extra love to ensure they become the star vegetable of your next roast. Generally speaking, potatoes are often the subject of unfair criticism.

Pork belly with sticky caramel dressing

February 17, 2014 by date with a plate.

Sunday night dinners with friends is a great way to wind down the weekend, ending it in style, with good food and great company. Always happy to put on a meal for friends, we invited two of our nearest and dearest over for my first attempt at cooking pork belly. I’ll save you any of the lead-up – the climax was a combination of pure salty delicious crunch-worthy crackling complimented by the most tender and moist meat imaginable. So yeah […]

Slow Roasted Chicken

August 12, 2013 by date with a plate.

Name one person who doesn’t love a Sunday Roast? Yep – like I thought – no one. Everyone loves a Sunday Roast, no matter what your meat of choice, a traditional roast is a real treat. My Slow Roasted Chicken is no exception, cared for by my low temperature oven for more than two hours, this chook is sure to please. I usually cook beef or pork when I do a roast, but after a trip to my local specialty […]
