If you are looking for a very quick and easy dinner this Fried Brown Rice is perfect. It is also a great way to get fussy eaters to eat a variety of vegetables and fish. I find that most children like Fried Rice and don’t realise they are eating lots of veges. The Salmon and […]
We love Tacos in this house and I am always trying new recipes and combinations. This recipe was originally for chicken, but as I have a pescatarian in the house I wanted to just make one dinner for everyone, so I swapped the chicken for Monkfish. I made the Pickled Onions earlier in […]
Bread and Butter Pudding is a favourite in my house. It is a very old fashioned dessert and very comforting on these cold winter nights. I was given a couple of Panettones for Christmas and was wondering what to do with them, so decided that Panettone would make a delicious bread to use in the […]
My Father in Law dropped in a recipe booklet (Dinner No2) from the Guardian for me and I really like some of the recipes in it. So far I have made the Tarka Dal and this Roast Cauliflower. As always I slightly change the recipe to suit our taste buds, so this is how I […]
My challenge was to make a Fish Chowder which was delicous but Dairy and Gluten Free, still keeping that rich creamy consistency. I am delighted with this Chowder, it is delicious and creamy but also at the same time light. This reheats perfectly as long as you do it gently. It is perfect for a […]
This is the Salsa I made to go with my Vegetarian Chilli Bowl. This Salsa is very easy and quick to make with none of the fine chopping involved with making Salsa Fresca (fresh diced tomatoes etc). You do need a food processor or blender though. Add the Onion, Garlic and Jalapeno Chillies to […]
A super tasty and easy Vegetarian Chilli recipe which you can use in a Chilli Bowl or a Burrito. Melt the Coconut Oil in a frypan with a lid and saute the Onion until it is soft. Add the Crushed Garlic and saute again for a minute or two. Add the Pepper strips and the […]
Here are a couple of easy and tasty School Lunches which I gave my daughter this week. Both lunches are Gluten and Dairy Free. Firstly a salad with chopped Lettuce, sliced Radish, sliced Red Pepper, grated Carrot and left over Grilled Salmon and Chilli and Coriander Prawns from last nights dinner. In a separate little […]
I love a warming bowl of soup for lunch in this grey and dreary weather. I made a big pot of this soup which we have been having for lunch this week. My daughter takes it to school in a flask so she has something warming in the middle of the day. It lasts very […]
Well, after travelling in Hong Kong, Japan and then going on to Melbourne and Warrnambool to visit my Mum, I must say it is good to be back in my own house and kitchen. Eating out is one of my favourite things to do, but when you do it non stop for weeks, you crave […]
