Banana bread

  I hardly bake on land, but long days on passage, profusion of fruits and endless requests from the kids for baking cakes (one of Anne’s favourite school activities), mean that...

WHAT’S IN YOUR PANTRY? Or how do you provision for a long passage?

  The difference between my boat pantry and my house pantry in Sydney is that we don’t have the convenience of running to the supermarket whenever we run out of a...

Coconut Snapper

Inspired by Colombian seafood dishes (coconut sauce) and red snapper from San Blas fishermen (off Coco Banderos Cays). Colombians traditionally deep fry individual fish, but I prefer to bake a bigger...

A taste of Colombia

  Earlier this month we spent 18 days in Cartagena, on Colombia’s Atlantic coast. It was a technical stop, to work on the boat rather than for tourism. Still, we all...

Crumbed lobster medallions with mango and chili coleslaw

While on the nostalgia trail… here is a week of #homecooked meals to transport us back to our favourite places: Mexico, Italy, France…
Braised garlic and ginger pork, roasted turnips, stir fried turnip leaves.
Van cooking is easy thanks to fresh produce found along the way, a few pantry staples and good weather!
A friend recently told me how much she liked my “last week’s menu” posts and I realised that it’s been months since the last update. The year so far has flown, plenty of distractions…when we’re not travelling, we’re home with a full house. Cooking has been a mix of large scale dinners to cater for voracious appetites, slapdash meals when inspiration failed, and elaborate recipes when the mood to cook strikes. There’s been lots of eggs on toast, green juice and cheese platters. As well as proper meals, swipe left for the best of them.
A flourless chocolate cake with pecan oil. Good enough for any occasion, be it a birthday celebration or a daily coffee ritual. I should know, I’ve been having a slice everyday this week 😉
Third Yee Sang salad in a week and i think we finally nailed it. The bunny actually looks like himself instead of masquerading as a pig or some weird creature ( swipe left for practise runs ).
Lunar New Year has been the dining theme for the past 2 weeks in our house.
How is this for outback cooking at home ? Using very Australian ingredients and a liberal use of #native spices, after watching many episodes of #thecookupsbs and @adamliaw
First road trip of 2023: random driving in regional NSW, looking for sunny weather. From Jugiong to Cowra We had fun tasting pies, not so much travelling in hail storms, but we can vouch for country hospitality and fascinating history. The story is on the blog this week, hope you enjoy the read as much as we did the drive!! Link in the bio.
