salted chocolate and caramel tarts
Though preparing your own shortcrust pastry is massively satisfying, having flour from one end of the kitchen to the other is sometimes not what you’re after when you are about to have friends around for afternoon tea.

chilli jam
Nigella. Beyonce. Me. Hard core, self-proclaimed chilli addicts. At an early age I learned that there are very few meals that can’t be improved with a touch of heat, our breakfast often served pickled chillies on the side.

anzac biscuits
This batch of biccies falls into the ‘Any Knucklehead Can Bake’ category of cooking. Great treat for the long weekend or in my case, motivational cookies for my project team.

pear, pistachio and chocolate cake
So I am back! And cannot believe it has been two years since my last blog post.

watson’s bay beach club, watson’s bay
I feel like I can count on one hand the harbourside restaurants in Sydney that are equal parts beautiful and good value. As a general rule of you have found a restaurant on our beautiful foreshore you pay through the nose and for a meal that seriously falls short on offerings further inland.

american pork ribs
There are many things I would never do on a first date and pork ribs is one of them. Call me old fashioned but finger lickin’ food consumption is something best saved for that familiar more settled stage in the relationship. Lucky for me my relationship has graduated from those impressionable early days to the…
