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 […]
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. […]
There’s nothing complicated or ‘chef-y’ about this recipe. Some may say it’s a bit boring; too 70’s for their liking. I don’t mind though. Some food trends come and go; think zucchini spaghetti, fancy tacos or sweet brioche burger buns (I’m not a massive fan of any of these things). But this apricot chook has lasted the […]
It was going to be apricot chicken for dinner tonight. Until I remembered that my good friend Lizard has a weird thing about fruit being cooked with meat. Another friend Jules also confessed yesterday that she doesn’t like apricot chicken. “You what? How can anyone not like apricot chicken!?” was my reply. We grew up […]

Have you seen the film ‘Julie and Julia’? A terrific chick flick, it’s based on the life of Julia Child who is recognised as bringing French cuisine to the United States. Her first cookbook ‘Mastering the Art of French Cooking’ is on my Christmas wish list. I can’t believe I’ve gone this long without a […]
State of Origin tonight. One half of me wants to be at Rom’s watching it on the giant outdoor screen; the other half is stoked with my decision to stay at home with a bowl of this delicious slow cooked curry. This is one of my go-to meals for days when I want something quick […]
I went through a stage of making butter chicken all the time when I was a teenager living at home. I was addicted. I used to use chicken breast, a jar of store bought butter chicken sauce, tomato paste and a tin of coconut milk. I’d always add carrots and green beans and the best […]
I love a good recipe for the slow cooker. Especially when the weather is starting to get cool and you’re looking for something comforting to warm you up. This chicken recipe is so easy to make, tastes delicious and can be served with rice, salad, mashed potato or steamed vege. It’s so versatile, a must […]
