Kung pao crack chicken
This is my version of kung pao chicken – a Sichuan dish that I have never tasted. Armed with my lack of knowledge and a fervor only seen previously in Russian ballet circles, I have set forth to make this dish my own. I’ve looked at a few recipes and then played around with a…

Flatbread for a bastard kebab
This is my flatbread recipe. It’s really good for a kebab or gyros. So what I will do is give you the recipe for the flatbread and then it’s up to you what you put in it. My suggestion would be to look to all of your already favourite flatbread wrapped foods ie. the doner…

Mussels with fennel, saffron and herbs
I write this as I am experiencing a mussel hangover. A mussel hangover, for those who are not in the club, is when you cook enough mussels for at least a couple of people but you neglect to use the knowledge inside you that knows you really love to eat all of the mussels (yeah,…

Potato, chorizo and capsicum on the fire
This is something that I first made as a side dish for a little barbecue, but as I ate it I definitely had the feeling that it would do damn fine for itself as the main event… the star attraction… the big kahuna. So, I guess that bit of information is so you can work…

Okra with tomato and spices
I dare say you either love or hate okra. Everyone I know either loves it or hates it, and that is enough of a focus group based experiment for me to deduce that you will be in one of these categories too. Either way is fine by me – I’m always going to want you…

Deer and beer chilli con venison
This is the sort of one pot meal that is going to look past your lack of culinary training (and/or talent) and end up being both tasty and delicious, and ready and raring to impress all your friends. All it really needs is a little time to simmer away and get sexy. Just like the…
