Grilled tumeric chicken
Fresh tumeric and kafir lime leaf is truly a beautiful combination. Like peaches and cream, the fat kid and cake, Winston Churchill and his cigar or Luke Skywalker and his sister. I fell in love with the combination pretty quickly after taking up tenure as head chef at a Thai restaurant in the Northern Rivers…

Smoked brisket pate with the leftover brisket from your weekend cook
This is a little something I came up with just the other day to use a little leftover brisket from the weekend cook. I am never disappointed with a pile of smoked brisket leftovers and I am happy to consume that brisket in a myriad of ways, but however many ways I enjoy eating brisket…

Pulled lamb biryani

Hammy baked beans in the BBQ
I know I have waxed the lyrical, stood atop my soap box, spruked about and just down right pleaded with you to make your own baked beans. They are a totally different world of awesome. If you do not believe me and choose a path of abstinence from making your own beans then there is…

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…
