Braised beef cheeks with cauliflower puree & salsa verde

April 29, 2014 by date with a plate.

We have a ritual every Monday night,  we get together with two of our favourite people, eat good food, drink wine and indulge in an hour of blissful silence where we become lost in the world of Game of Thrones. It all started over a love affair for the show and the fact that we didn’t have Foxtel, thus needing to find friends who did….that being said, I actually look forward to Mondays over most other days now (Friday, Saturday […]

Paprika and thyme chicken

January 31, 2014 by date with a plate.

It was another case of mid-week laziness. I knew it was my turn to cook dinner, I just couldn’t seem to summon the energy to be inventive, so I rustled up an old favourite that I know the boy likes: my paprika and thyme chicken. This little dish owes its origins to an abundance of thyme in the garden and an excess of paprika in the spice rack – I quite literally just banged this one out, but its become […]
