Shredded chicken with soba noodles in miso broth

March 10, 2016 by date with a plate.

I am slightly obsessed with noodles; dry or wet, I am immediately drawn to bowls of slippery, slurp-worthy goodness and last night I had a bad craving for soba noodles specifically. Soba noodles are a Japanese variety made of wheat and buckwheat flour and can be served hot or cold. Last night’s meal was served hot, in a delicate and slightly creamy broth featuring miso paste, soy sauce and mirin as the flavour base. It was quick, but incredibly comforting […]

Beef rib tacos (with all the trimmings)

February 23, 2016 by date with a plate.

When life gives you leftover beef ribs, make beef rib tacos…or at least I think that’s how the saying goes? Right? Maybe not, but that’s just what I did. Ever since my boyfriend’s custom smoker arrived at our house we have been working our way through every possible cut of appropriate meat to smoke; beef ribs, pork ribs, brisket, pork shoulder, you name it and it’s on his ‘to-smoke’ list. Smoking meat can be a little hit and miss, mostly […]

Pickled radish

June 29, 2015 by date with a plate.

While it’s wonderful to grow your own produce, I sometimes stress about the potential for waste as everything ripens/matures at the same time. It is at this point in time I start to plan what I am going to do with an entire box of tomatoes or thirty beetroots…I can’t stand food waste and either gift some to friends, or depending on what is it, I will make jam, chutney or pickle it. Suffice to say our fridge is overwhelming […]

Fattoush

January 20, 2014 by date with a plate.

A small local Lebanese restaurant has sparked my interest in this wonderful cuisine, so much so that I often find myself making any excuse possible to return. From the meat to the sides and the irresistible Labneh – I have fallen deeply in love with this country’s wonderful dishes. I tried my own version of Fattoush over the weekend and it wasn’t a bad first attempt. It’s a simple salad, but the dressing and the crispy flat bread transform it […]

Radish & celery vermicelli noodle salad

November 22, 2013 by date with a plate.

Ever the optimist, I decided to muscle up some inspiration for last night’s dinner and make what I could from what was in the fridge already. Screw going to the supermarket at 8pm at night – I was hungry, desperate and tired (not to mention lazy). That’s when the creative juices kicked in. Pork chops, some fresh veggies and dried vermicelli noodles I knew were in the pantry. This combination allowed me to rustle up something appropriate to feed two […]
