Bircher soaked in orange juice

February 29, 2016 by date with a plate.

Bircher has a whole range of benefits, but the one I am most interested in is time saving. Every now and then I make a massive portion of bircher muesli by soaking oats and various other wholesome goodies so that when morning rolls around I am ready for the day…it’s a really good “I am adulting like a boss” feeling. It takes very little effort and  leaves me comfortably full and satisfied until early afternoon. I have made this bircher a […]

Marron with blood orange, fennel and apple

October 8, 2015 by date with a plate.

Ah marron, sweet sweet delicious juicy marron, how much I love you. But sadly, if you don’t live in Western Australia or on Kangaroo Island in South Australia you might struggle to find one of these tasty freshwater shellfish – so substitute with prawns, crayfish, lobster or even scallops for an indulgent and super fancy meal. Perfect with a glass (or bottle) of white, a good friend and a carefree Spring afternoon. I love this shellfish, in fact I have […]

Fennel, orange and rocket salad

July 1, 2014 by date with a plate.

Even though it’s cold and miserable outside, I feel like if I eat something that reminds me of Summer then I can pretend those grey oppressive skies are full of light and warmth – even if it only lasts a few glorious minutes. Despite oranges and fennel being readily available in Winter, they still remind me of much brighter days – perhaps it’s their vibrant flavour or that pop of bright orange among luscious greens, I’m not too sure – […]

Lamb burgers with harissa mayonnaise and orange salsa

March 5, 2014 by date with a plate.

This one was too good not to share, I can’t actually remember the last time I made a burger recipe that actually really impressed me. This burger is simple, full of flavour and is a really nice change from the every day cheeseburger. Not that we eat burgers every night of the week, but on the rare occasion we do love to stack a pair of  toasty buns sky high with our favourite ingredients. What I love most about this […]

Smoked BBQ chicken (finger-licking good)

October 15, 2013 by date with a plate.

Our Sunday BBQ wasn’t complete without the addition of a whole smoked chicken to serve alongside our Cuban smoked pork. What a treat this bird was too, I was surprised at first that it only took an hour to cook and was unbelievably moist. This simple recipe is a real treat on your Weber BBQ – trust me! So simple, I was blown away at how good this chicken tasted with so little done to it. The sauce used to […]

Orange Syrup Cake

July 15, 2013 by date with a plate.

After receiving six brand new shiny cookbooks for my birthday, I decided over the weekend that enough was enough – it was time to start cooking and discovering. Being a sweet tooth, I was instantly absorbed by all the new cake and dessert recipes and actually endured a painful internal battle over which one to cook first. I subsequently settled on an Orange Syrup Cake, which looked like it might take me back to the hot months of an Australian […]

Jelly shots

March 13, 2013 by date with a plate.

I was recently faced with the awkward predicament of being told not to bring anything to a house party apart from a couple bags of ice to help keep drinks cold, this felt like a seemingly poor contribution for what was to be an epic housewarming for two of my dearest friends. So I upped the ante – by bringing along trays of homemade jelly shots – but with a twist. I traded the predictable small, plastic and boring shot […]
