seafood paella | as featured in the summer 2018 edition of graziher magazine
Lo Corcoran talks all things Christmas ham, New Year’s resolutions, seafood paella and the beloved game of cricket. How good is Christmas ham. Cork Daddy’s favourite food, I have to admit I’m a bit fussy when it comes to the carving. I love it really finely shaved – please no ham steaks for me! Frequenting many a […]
sweet + sour pork meatballs | the ultimate family meal
Sweet and sour pork, honey chicken, beef with black bean, Mongolian lamb; don’t forget the spring rolls and our all time favourite – fried rice of course! Does any of this ring a bell? Growing up – going to our local Chinese restaurant was something we always looked forward to; just as exciting as seeing […]
spinach + ricotta cannelloni
So often the hardest thing about midweek cooking (or any type of cooking) is trying to figure out what to cook don’t you think? I’m always looking for inspo in the kitchen and I haven’t made cannelloni in ages! When browsing the aisles of Woolies this arvo, I came across a shelf with half price […]
chicken marbella | easy entertaining
You really won’t believe me until you try it – but there has never been a simpler recipe to cook for a crowd when entertaining. This Chicken Marbella comes from ‘The Ignatian Table cookbook’ – a fabulous book that’s filled with so many good and hearty, tried and tested recipes. My sister in law, Lou […]
pork tenderloin | simple + delicious
My sister Elles has always had a way with words. You could say that she’s a real wordsmith; I know, I know – sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Now all the Thomas girls are pretty good at talking; Cork Daddy will attest that it’s often hard to get a word in when we’re […]
mim’s good old fashioned corned beef silverside
I know there are a lot of people out there that turn their noses up at corned beef. You might have memories of eating some poorly made stringy corned beef back in the day; whether that be at school or at a grandparents house. And if you’re one of those people – I’ll tell you […]
slow cooker thai green chicken curry
Thai green chicken curry is one of my all time favourite meals – I make it a lot. I’ve adapted this recipe for the slow cooker. Simple, tasty and comforting, you’d be hard pressed to find a more satisfying meal for a busy weeknight or a lazy weekend at home. Similar to my Thai red […]
louey’s marvellous mussels
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 […]
pan fried salmon with a honey + soy + garlic glaze
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 […]
panang chicken curry | feeding a crowd
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 […]
nee’s spaghetti slice | greek pastitsio
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 […]
deliciously simple chicken stir fry | the ultimate family dinner
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 […]
chicken schnitzel + coleslaw rolls
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 […]

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 […]
salmon + potato tray bake w my cheat’s aioli
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 […]
beef + black bean noodle bowl
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 […]
hungarian potato bake
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 […]
