Caesar salad is my all time favourite salad! Anyone who reads my blog has probably recognized I am a fan of anything between 2 slices of bread too. It was only natural that putting a caesar salad inside of a burger bun was simply the right thing to do. I give you my delicious chicken…
The other day I posted my watermelon & togaroshi recipe and I talked about clinging on to summer here in QLD and how summer is coming elsewhere in the world. Well, now at the request of my wife (who is always cold) I am back making soup! This coconut corn soup has been a family…
Summer has drawn to an end here in Australia and on it’s way elsewhere in the world. Luckily for me I live in QLD aka “the sunshine state” where it’s warm all year round. Which means I get to enjoy this spicy watermelon snack all the time! Truthfully though I’m just trying to cling on…
This smoked pumpkin hummus recipe is a combination of the things I love the most. In no particular order – cooking on my weber bbq, my wife and my baby girl. My wife is a CRAZY hummus fan – the toddler too. But as always with the toddler it’s a struggle to get her to…
I am always on the hunt for new recipes and in particular beef burger ideas. I posted a few recipes lately that we all really enjoyed slow roasted tomatoes and onion marmalade. Seeing as I had them in the fridge and knowing they would taste great with some brie cheese – well, I decided to…
For those of you who saw my stuffed capsicums recipe and my beet hummus you are in for a treat with this one! Combining my love of Clonakilty pudding with my simple and delicious beet hummus recipe I created my ultimate Irish breakfast that is (I’m gonna go out on a limb here) probably the…
I am personally a HUGE fan of mushrooms and love them in any shape or form. I think it was when I worked for a good friend in helping him open his restaurant Treyvaud’s in Killarney, Ireland. Hi Paul! His brother Mark was the chef and he made the most amazing mushroom soup. Since then…
Truthfully I don’t eat a TON of Indian food. However, I do like a good korma,. This is probably mainly to do with my lack of adventure when living in Ireland as the offerings were never that great – sorry! I always found that I missed the vegetable element when I order a takeaway and…
Luckily for me my wife enjoys garlic as much as I do. Man that would be tough if she didn’t. Truthfully, we probably wouldn’t still be together. I always have some roasted garlic in the fridge ready to go. It’s one of those simple things to make and tastes GREAT too. Why roast it whole?…
I figured seeing as I am always rambling on about cooking and some of the equipment I use this would be a good chance to list a few of what kitchen accessories I deem “kitchen essentials”. Items that I use regularly and that help me create – what my wife says “better than restaurant food”…
Pickled onions – these, in my opinion are something every household should have in the fridge. SO simple to make, unbelievably tasty, cost effective and they last ages. What’s not to love about pickled onions? You may remember seeing my post on pickled cucumbers and how I mentioned it is such an easy thing to…
