Tamarillo chutney
The tamarillo season is in full swing in my neck of the woods so it’s time to bust out this little recipe that I came up with one year when a friend of mine gave me a shitload* of these sour little bastards from his heavily laden tree. It’s a great little chutney for stuff…

Really easy barbecued baby snapper with Thai flavours
This is the quick version of “Barbecued baby snapper with Thai flavours”. If you had the time and the inclination you could certainly make your own spice paste from scratch, but using a store-bought paste for this means that you can have it on the table in 20 minutes. This is about the amount of…

Jalapeno & cheese hotdogs with pickle relish
This is not the humble hotdog I remember from my youth. My memories involve of some kind of bright red sausage shaped thing of undisclosed origin, pulled from a pot of swampy looking, steamy water and then slapped into a piece of white sliced bread (or maybe a warm bun if we were lucky) and…

Potted ham terrine
This terrine is pressed so it will hold its shape and you can carve it up all sexy like at the table, but it also works fine if you just dump the mix into a bowl and put it on the table for everyone to scoop onto toast as they please. If you leave a…

Christmas ham with gochujang and honey glaze
Now, there’s going to be a lot of different stories floating around the world-wide super-web around this point in time all telling you how you should cook a ham. Some will claim to be good. Some will claim to be the best. All I know is that there are a lot of different ways to…

Bread & butter pickles
I love a good garden pickle. At any given time, our kitchen bench will be home to numerous pickles and/or ferments using the produce from Jennee’s garden. NB for any inexperienced players out there; Jennee is my wife and she’s a heck of a good gardener. Grow something, pickle it and be truly impressed with…
