    Time for some al fresco dining (1 vote)
    It's a rarity that I make up any recipe that's worth keeping, and more unusual yet that I would blog about it, unless it's to laugh at my failure. Today, I am very well pleased with a marinade of mine. One of those pantry recipes, that worked a[...]
  • Recipe Tava
    Tava
    I'd never heard of it before. Sounds a bit exotic, but it's really Cypriot home cooking. One big baking dish of meat and potatoes! Cooking tonight from Falling Cloudberries , of all of Tessa Kiros' s books it's the most romantically named for[...]
  • Recipe Venezia
    Venezia
    Just call me Doubting Thomas. I wasn't convinced, but, as usual, I am ready to try, and will happily admit if I am proved wrong. How could I cook skinless, boneless chicken breast fillets for an hour, and end up with something that is still worth[...]
  • Recipe Mahalepi
    Mahalepi
    It's too hot for me today, the few clouds and gentle breeze are not enough to soften the hot sun. A refreshing sweet might do the trick. When I was a little girl, I desperately wanted to be just like Jeannie from I dream of Jeannie. Loved[...]

    For a quick meal when there is nothing in the pantry, it's hard to go past pasta. One of my favourites, if only because it is a great 'nothing in the pantry' recipe comes from Tessa Kiros' Apples for Jam . I must say, I have made it so often, I[...]

    Twelve, A Tuscan Cook Book is a lovely part of my Tessa Kiros collection. I pulled the book from the shelf as I felt like some home-style cooking. Albeit not my home, but someone's home would satisfy my desire today for a cook ahead recipe that[...]
  • Recipe Birthday....Pie
    Birthday....Pie
    The Lovely Man has turned 34. He put in an aside request as he left for work 'If you were thinking of doing a cake for my birthday, that pie with the Peppermint Crisp top is really delicious'. Let's take that as a hint, shall we? No complaints[...]
  • Recipe Pasta from Twelve
    Pasta from Twelve
    I don't know anyone, short of those phobic about veg who doesn't love pasta with broccoli. Certainly everyone in our family loves it. I was eager then, to give a cauli version a go. Tessa Kiros' Twelve was the perfect place to turn. It's[...]
  • Recipe Simple family fare
    Simple family fare
    Another make ahead recipe today. It took a bit of time, but the results were worth it. I love green beans that are cooked until really soft. Possibly my favourite way is a version I make with tomatoes here . This recipe though uses lamb along[...]
  • Recipe Salsa verde two ways
    Salsa verde two ways
    I created my own little Masterchef Australia moment last night! The show has (nearly 'had' as it's about to end) a challenge to fix a dish. The idea being that two contestants fighting to stay in the competition are presented with a recipe[...]
