Tasty assed grilled chicken with gochujang and smoked honey
This was another one of those happen-to-have-a-really-good-looking-chook-on-hand-and-I’m-pretty-keen-to-put-something-on-the-bbq type situations. You know those ones, right? I also had in my possession a bottle of gochujang – the fermented chilli (red pepper) paste of Korean origins that I had been hearing so much about lately cos I am a fricking ear-to-the-ground kinda guy.

Warm salad of squid, chickpeas, olives, tomato and herbs with nutty za’atar
It is difficult to conjure up a cracking meal with what can be only described as eff all. I am not a magician; I don’t even have the skills to do a basic card trick and I certainly do not possess the powers of alchemy. What is not difficult though, is creating a cracking meal…

Chicken thighs with beans and asparagus ala Matty
My brother is staying with us at the moment. His name is Matt, so for the purpose of this story I shall call him Matt. Matt lives in Margret River on the west coast of Australia and we live near Byron Bay on the east coast of Australia, so as you may or may not…

Mussels with chorizo, saffron and tomato… so very simple
Mussels can be simple as fuck and really impressive and sometimes, so can this ol’ blog. Watch this… Mussels are a light bulb moment. There is a picture of a bowl of mussels with a side of crusty bread in the dictionary right next to the definition of the phrase “light bulb moment” (please don’t…
