Wagga has seen scorching temperatures of above 40℃ over the past week. And I’m forever grateful that we’ve escaped the heat – spending the school holidays at Mum and Dad’s beach house in Culburra (on the NSW south coast). Our days have been spent swimming, building sandcastles, eating ice cream, drinking coffee (before beer o’clock […]
I first fell in love with Pastitsio whilst on holidays in Greece – what feels like a million years ago! A dish made up of ground meat, cooked pasta and a cheesy béchamel sauce; it’s the Greek equivalent to the Italian’s favourite dish – lasagna. And talk about a crowd pleaser. Comforting and delicious, team […]
Tired of making the same old things night after night? In a bit of a dinner rut? Then this quick and easy stir fry is for you. Cooked in the same amount of time it takes to steam the rice, if your family is anything like mine – there’ll be none left over. As always, spice […]
My brother Pete did some very experimental cooking on Christmas Day. Always one to enjoy the ‘theatre’ of cooking, he decided to try his hand at a hāngy. Now I’m sure most of us would at least cook something we were familiar with – if it were me, I’d go for a chook or some […]
Nee remembers making rock cakes in her very first home economics class back in highschool (just a couple of years ago) and I have very fond memories helping Mim make these every school holidays at the farm. Pa loved them and so did I; just as long as I could pick out the sultanas. These […]
Everybody had a favourite ice-cream growing up; whether it be a Bubble O’Bill, Cornetto or Calipo. I used to love going to the corner shop for an ice cream after school. For me – it was always a Chocolate Heart if it was for a ‘real special treat’, or a lemonade icy pole on those […]
I could be wrong (it has happened before) but I reckon everybody loves schnitzel. Apart from non meat eaters obviously, what is there not to like about a delicious piece of crunchy on the outside, succulent on the inside – chicken breast? Even if you don’t call yourself a good cook – if you can […]
I think it’s safe to say that this is up there with one of my favourite recipes on the blog; salmon and potato tray bake with my cheat’s aioli. It’s simply exquisite. Healthy and fresh but somehow extremely comforting and a little bit sophisticated, it’s perfect for the home-cook as there’s no fuss involved, limited […]
This beef and black bean noodle bowl is the ultimate midweek meal. It has absolutely everything in it that you want. Deliciously saucy beef mince, fast cooking vermicelli noodles, loads of colourful veggies and all topped off with a fried egg and enough hot chilli sauce to satisfy my spice craving for a week! It’s […]
When you go to someone’s house you should never turn up empty handed. This is something that I firmly believe in and apparently Meghan Markle agrees with. The Duchess of Sussex reportedly made some banana bread to take along to the Woodley family’s farm in Dubbo this week. Cooked the night before whilst staying at […]
This is a real crowd pleaser. A potato bake loaded with cream, cheese and crispy salami – you can see why. I went through a ‘Hungarian potato bake’ stage last year where I made this all the time. It’s terrific to have up your sleeve for the holiday season as it’s THE best thing to […]
If you’re reading this – I’m guessing you like food. And if you like food – you have to follow Recipe Tin Eats; you probably do that already. Nagi is the lady behind Australia’s most popular food blog and not only does she have the best recipes going round, she has awesome videos to accompany […]
Everybody needs to have a few go-to salads in their repertoire. By all means, there’s nothing wrong with the humble and old school combo of some iceberg/tomato/cucumber and Spanish onion thrown together in a bowl. This tabbouleh with quinoa is just a little bit well.. a little bit ‘more’ when you’ve got friends over don’t […]
‘Play School’ is an Aussie institution. Recently celebrating 50 years of the beloved preschoolers television show, it’s still going strong and holds a special place in many a person’s heart- both young and old. I love trying to guess which window they’re going through, look forward to finding out the time on the ‘rocket clock’ […]
I give to you – the ultimate Sunday night meal. Throw this crazy simple chilli con carne in the slow cooker in the morning and not only do you get the delicious smell wafting from the kitchen all day, but the only worry you’ll have come Sunday evening is what movie to watch on Netflix. […]
My sister-in-law Lou is known for her mussels (not muscles). Such a scrumptious recipe – I’m delighted to be sharing it with you. Now if you’re a fan of seafood but shy away from cooking mussels because you think they’re too difficult – you must think again. It really is the easiest, quickest, tastiest and […]
One of the things I love most about our annual family holiday to Mollymook is the fresh seafood at our fingertips. The days are spent at the beach with most evenings being happily spent in the kitchen. We feast on prawns and oysters down at Ulladulla wharf, eat lots of fresh fish (my favourite being […]
Nothing goes past a good potato salad at a barbie. I must admit though, I’m a bit of a potato salad snob. I’m not a massive fan of boiled egg tossed through it and I don’t like it served cold from the fridge (instead preferring to serve it immediately after it’s been made, when the […]

Cork Daddy’s home town of Boorowa is located right near Young; the cherry capital of Australia. Pop keeps us all going in cherries throughout the summer months and they’re always a highlight come Chrissie time. The Hall Family Orchard cherries are the best! Of export quality, they’re absolutely out of this world! Plump, delicious and the […]

Whatever you do – don’t do what I did a couple of years ago on Christmas Eve. Staying in Hat Head for Chrissie with the whole family, I was helping unpack the car when I reached for the shopping bag that housed the ham. Now I should of known the bag would be heavy, having […]

Both the Aussie’s and Kiwi’s claim to own the pavlova – a simple dessert consisting of a meringue base, topped off with whipped cream and fresh fruit. They’ve been fighting over this title ever since the dish was named after Russian ballerina, Anna Pavlova, when she visited both countries back in the 1920’s. In my […]

Do you ever buy pork mince? If the answer is NO, then you should definitely start. Lean, affordable and quick to cook, throw some in your trolley today and whip up this simple stir fry with hoisin sauce. Inspired by a trip I did to South East Asia years ago, I couldn’t get enough of […]

I’d quite happily become a vegetarian; just as long as I was able to eat haloumi all day, every day. How good is haloumi. Finely sliced and seared in a hot pan, there’s no better ingredient to add to a salad. The grilled haloumi is definitely the star of the show in this dish, guaranteed […]
