Lasgane (or lassarnyer)
I do declare that if you start with something delicious like say, a nice beef ragu* alla bolognese and some fresh pasta sheets, and then combine previously mentioned delicious things with big fat layer of béchamel sauce and possibly bake the combination of said ingredients in a 180C oven for somewhere around the 30-40 minute…

Amy and Justin come to stay part 2… burgers, flies and the swimming pool
That’s right. Part 2 in the Amy and Justin saga… no stay at our house would be complete without a swim in the pool, a conversation with the colony of flies that lives on our verandah, and a burger… It’s hot out. It’s pretty bloody hot in too, to be totally honest. The dogs lay…

Reef and Beef
Beef and Reef, Surf and Turf, Chicks with Dicks… Call it what you will, but it is an Australian classic. In the late 80s there was nay a pub nor club in all the lands that would not have it on their menu. Usually reading something like this, “char grilled rib eye steak cooked to…

Two Steak Sauces
TWO STEAK SAUCES. 1 FOR SCOTTY AND 1 FOR MARK PEPPER SAUCE “Green peppercorns, cream and gravy mix… that’s pepper sauce isn’t it?” is what I would probably say if I was head chef at the local RSL or servo tuckshop and someone had asked me how to make peppercorn sauce for steak. I would…

BREAKFAST Wake up to the pretty birdies, get that fire burning again cos we need some coffee and a big breakfast. We always have a big breakfast when we’re camping because there’s much relaxing to do and you certainly wouldn’t want to be trying that out on an empty stomach. Baked beans, a bit of…

Holidayfoodisthebestshitever (part 1) It’s been way too long since I’ve been on a proper holiday… proper holiday? You ask, what is this proper holiday you speak of. Well for me it’s not a real holiday if you’re going somewhere to catch up with heaps of people you already know, it’s the anonymity that I love…

Anchovy and caper salsa… And thanks Pauly. Thanks for the cheer.
Pauly from Paul’s Caul (and various other notoriety) is a great friend and means many other things to me then just cheap “thrills” to say the least, but today I just wanna say thanks to him for the laughs he brings to my day when he sends me a new post. My day usually isn’t…

My big fat feasting long weekend part 3
Part three The final installment of this gripping trilogy. Back home. Looking at my own bed that defo has a comfort factor of at least 9. Pretty happy about that. There were burgers and home-made chips on the couch. Not actually on the couch but we ate them laying on the couch in our old…

Mussaman curry spiced lamb by Gareth the work experience kid
While I am in the mood for doing odes and paying homages, this one is for Gareth, the work experience kid we had in the kitchen last week. Gareth is also my nephew. I think he thought he may have got off quite lightly working with his ol’ Uncle Graz, but we worked that little…

My Rum Diaries, A Birthday Feast, Lemonade for Breakfast, and Other Ramblings…
This is just a little FYI, a heads up, a snippet of information about me, and my Achilles Heal of the world of alcoholic beverages. If we by some random twist of fate ever meet and say, go out for a bit of a drink and a laugh, please do not buy me rum. Rum…
