Creamy Citrus Cheesecake

I am such a sucker for cheesecake.  It is one of my favourite foods and I haven’t met one that I didn’t like.
Anyhow, I had a real craving for cheesecake the other day and rather than buying one I decided to bite the bullet, pull out my sinfully creamy cheesecake recipe and whip up some [...]

Dong Po Pork – The Reckoning

One of the most popular things on this blog is my recipe for Dong Po Pork. It’s basic, easy and delicious.  Could it be possible to make it even better?
Well…..
Yes.

The original recipe I used was very basic and used only a few ingredients.  The new improved version is even more delicious.  To the original seasonings of [...]

Tastespotting Part 2

Ladies and gennulmun, there is a new contender for the Tastespotting crown!  With only 75 posts (and counting) it has been live for only a little time. 
I give you (via SlashFood) ….  Food Gawker
They acknowledge that they are a homage to Tastespotting and list a small number of rules-of-usage on their About page.  Registration is [...]

Naan Bread – A Very Easy, Authentic Recipe

I love fresh naan bread.  I eat too much of it when we go to an Indian restaurant because it’s never so good as when it’s fresh.  I have bought pre-made naan to go with curries and they have universally been disappointing.  One brand that I bought for a dinner party was the driest, most unappetizing [...]

Easy Banana Tart

Despite the slightly disturbing Banana Choc-Top incident earlier this week, I decided that I had to do something quickly with the three aging bananas that were browning in the fruitbowl.  But – it being stormy and quite cool – I couldn’t quite come at the idea of making a smoothie and I wanted something different [...]

Happiness is…Rice Pudding

 
I once had a delicious rice pudding at a restaurant in Glebe called The Yak & Yeti, which is a Nepalese place.  As far as I can tell, it’s a family-run business and has been consistently popular with the locals for years.  I’ve had some excellent meals there (the goat curry was excellent) and had [...]

Banana Cake with Lime Icing

As regular readers will know, I got some beautiful cake pans into stock before Christmas.  Well, I resisted temptation for as long as I could before finally succumbing today and abducting some from the shop for my very own.  My rationale is that I can hardly sell something if I can’t tell you everything about [...]

Muesli Redux

I’ve posted about muesli before and must confess that I haven’t been keeping up with this healthy habit.  However, in the interest of helping my New Years Resolutions along, it’s one habit that I’m happy to fall back into.  Unlike the American-style granolas, I don’t toast or bake anything and I don’t add any sweetener [...]

Mango Redux

Last night I sliced all the cheeks off the case of mangoes and popped them into the freezer in bags.  I then squeezed all the remaining pulp and juice off the stones (one job for which my big fat man-hands are perfect!) and ended up with about half-a-litre of juice and flesh.  I was too tired [...]
