cheat’s dinner party for 6
serves 6 As you know I have been flat out lately, zooming around like a headless chook working on my magazine contract work as well as flying down to Welly for Hoob’s 21st and, (in case you hadn’t heard) getting stuck into (pun intended) my next book! In between I, like you no doubt, have […]
castello marquis double-baked cheese souffles
makes 6 Do you believe in serendipity? Lately I have had a weirdly large amount of serendipitous things happen in my life, in terms of coincidences and crazy timing that have pretty much blown me away…nothing overly dramatic or major, just lots of small good things happening in synch.

(Actually I have gotten to know Annie very well over the last fifteen months – she has kindly sung while I’ve been shooting, […]
Kylie Kwong’s sung choi bao of vegetables
Some days I really love my job – case in point, the end of last week when I was invited to attend a Furi knife event hosted by the super-talented and down-to-earth Kylie Kwong. I have always been a massive fan of hers, especially since I saw her a few years ago, cooking at a […]
mushrooms in pastry (en croute)
Gooood morning, good morning, good morning (said in my head just like Stephen Fry). Right well apparently the weather is about to turn to crap all around the country again, so I thought a wee bit of mushroomy, cheesy pastry was in order. This is such a simple recipe that I put together for my […]
