Iluka and a prawn pasta that will do the trick for Valentines Day I think…
Iluka again. Yes we’re back to Iluka again. The owners of the restaurant I work at have declared we shall be closed for a week for maintenance and a well-deserved break after the holiday craziness. I agreed this was a good idea. Even if I was a little simpler then I think I am and…

A steak sandwich just so I get to use my homemade tomato sauce
As I stated in the title of this piece, this steak sandwich happened to come into my possession purely for the purpose of carrying my home made tomato sauce to my face. I could’ve just drank it but, quite frankly, that shit just looks plain wrong. Make a steak sandwich exactly like you would make…

Pork knuckle, sauerkraut and bean stew with mustard dumplings a la Jamies Money Saving Meals
…and with the leftovers of last nights dinner I shall make pork knuckle, sauerkraut and bean stew with mustard dumplings a la “Jamie’s Money Saving Meals” and by Jeeves he would have been proud. That pork knuckle only costs $8. Read it again, eight bucks! So yes, the leftover pork and cabbage shall be our…

Pork knuckle with sauerkraut and hasselback fondant potatoes
Today Jennee has declared she will be cooking my favourite dinner because of my prompt completion of set tasks lately. I have been meeting all of my KPIs (key performance indicators), negotiating multi-single dollar deals and fulfilling all of my regular everyday husbandly duties (sex) with such efficiency (defo) and great results (not really). I…

Mussels times two… and this damn heat
H(eat) Day 1 Damn this heat. I saw the sun rearing it’s head above the hills this morning and it quite literally had fire in it’s eyes. It’s so damn hot out side right now I’m pretty sure Lucifer himself just came to my door to enquire as to whether he may be able to…

Spanakopita by Jennee
Recipe from the depths of Jennee’s mind, photos from the camera, additional writing by me, Grazza McFilthy Mouth… Spanakopita is some kind of Greek pie. It is rolled in filo pastry with a spinach-y cheesey filling. Basically it is kick-ass. A pie that has kept many a 70-something-year-old Greek man boned up and ready to…

What a time to go down… and a recipe for apricot chicken
What a time to go down… and no, I am not talking about trying to get your girlfriends knickers off in the middle of the local shopping centre… during Christmas extra trading. No. What I am referring to in the unwelcome timing of my backs ability to function properly going AWOL, and thus rendering me…

Balsamic beetroot salad with fried beetroot leaves, quinoa, soft feta, cherry tomatoes and herbs
I sit back today, slowly winding down and reflecting on my week so far… and by that I mean I am in bed, sick, sore and whining like the small child who needs his mothers boobie. Dammit, I do need my mother’s boobie… Actually that would be a little sick, but probably encouraged in many…

Stuffed zucchini flowers with cherry tomato and herb salsa… fresh from the garden I might add
Our garden is being particularly nice to us at the moment. Not nice like helping out with the washing, or dropping the kids at school, or watering our pet carnies, but nice in a way that only a garden can; by producing an abundance of fresh vegetables that we get to use in our meals…

Chicken and chorizo… the go to dish at Chateau le Stockdale
Roasted chicken and chorizo. The go-to dish at Chateau le Stockdale, but then, why the hell wouldn’t it be. This is the sort of thing that you could put into the Breville sandwich press and it’s going to come out cracking. Put it on a pizza with cows curd and parsley, in a burger, or…
