Jalapeno Popper Style Chicken
There are some things I miss about NYC. How good Amazon is there, amazing little restaurants serving the best snacks, overly cool cocktail bars, the neverending discovery of something new at every corner AND, wait for it……. Dive bars! There was something about them when you wanted a few chilled beers, average as F food…
Caramelised White Chocolate Ice-Cream
The ice-cream maker has come out of the cupboard, and my latest fave is this caramelised white chocolate ice-cream. It takes a little longer to make due to the caramelising of the chocolate, but hot damn is the results worth it. I’ve actually made it 3 weeks in a row now as many a friend…
Pea & Ham Soup
This pea & ham soup is one that I have made many a time for “fancy dinners” aka dinner parties. You may think pea & ham soup – heard that many a time and there isn’t much “fancy” about that. Well, this one has a bit of a fun, cool, tasty & sexy looking twist!! …
Korean Beef Burger
Probably the best burger I have ever eaten. Yep, that’s a direct quote from Mrs AnotherFoodBlogger. Given that this Korean beef burger was the best she had eaten then I’m guessing it’s probably the best I have made. Perfectly cooked beef from my supplier (organic meat online), gooey cheese, delicious gochujang aioli and some homemade…
Mushroom Braised Short Ribs
Father’s Day was just the other day here in Australia, and as we move into Spring, the weather is defo warming up nicely. During the day it’s shorts & tees but still a little “fresh” in the evening. The BBQ has been cranked up a little more, but the dutch oven still has a little…
Vegetable Bolognese
This week we are tackling the age-old mission of ‘getting veg into your child’. Anyone else have that problem? I think what I find most frustrating about it is both my wife and I eat pretty much everything and love eating out and trying new food things. Our daughter – the COMPLETE opposite. So, when…
Steak & Onion Soubise
Who doesn’t love a juicy medium-rare steak? Now pair it with some simply grilled greens and the most delicious onion soubise sauce, and you are left with a dinner for any guest to your home (or just you and the ladyfriend doing date night!). My steak & onion soubise recipe is one that has been…
Crispy Fish Tacos
I think the first-ever taco I ate after moving to NYC was a crispy fish taco. It was so simple – beautifully fried fresh fish, cabbage, a squeeze of lime, and some aioli. Not much to it but boy is it a lasting memory. As you probably saw from my recent chorizo & prawn taco…
Brown Butter Prawn Pasta
We haven’t had a pasta dish in a while here on the site actually nor in the house other than my world-famous (cough, splutter) beef cheek ragu. I decided to finally put one together using ingredients that we (I) pretty much always have in the fridge and this brown butter prawn pasta was born. A…
Chorizo & Prawn Tacos
Usually, when I ask the “boss” what she wants from dinner, I am met with “whatever you want.” So then I suggest tacos, and IMMEDIATELY I am met with only if it’s fish or chorizo & prawn tacos. So, in other words, “whatever I want” just as long as it conforms with whatever you want!! …
Szechuan Chicken Rice
Chicken mince is the latest thing to pop up in the fridge here. I do a little work with Inglewood Organic Chicken so I was tasked with creating something with their chicken mince. Truthfully, it’s not something we eat a lot of in the house but after this recipe and the dumplings (more on those…
Spanish Fish Stew
Dishes to warm the soul are what’s being served here in AnotherFoodBloggers home right now. My Spanish fish stew is definitely one that ticks those boxes.

Spiced Red Cabbage
Spiced red cabbage is what’s making the house smell SO DARN GOOD right now!

Potato Leek & Black Pudding Soup
Did I mention it’s a whole lot colder now in Australia? Monday marked the 1st day of winter here, and I’ve definitely gotten too used to the warm QLD weather. Low teens weather has me putting the heating on and wanting to curl up with a big ole bowl of potato, leek & black pudding…
Chicken & Butterbean Cassoulet
1st day of winter here in Australia and where it’s not too cold here in Queensland. It’s actually quite beautiful, really. The mornings and evenings defo feel chillier.

Pork & Black Pudding Burger
The latest burger to grace AnotherFoodBlogger’s home has been hailed as “the best burger I’ve made”. Yep, I sound like a restaurant using a one time YELP review to describe themselves.

Miso Steak Sauce

Thai Green Chicken Curry
Who else loves a good Thai green chicken curry? It’s literally the only thing my wife orders from the Thai take-aways. It’s how she judges the takeaway. To be honest, she isn’t wrong. I think every one of us has had a green curry at some point in our life so we can all compare…
Grilled Lamb & Roasted Veg Salad
Easter has just passed and I dunno about you but we ate plenty of lamb in our house! Lamb tastes SO good right now – I can’t get enough of it. We eat plenty of meat in AnotherFoodBloggers home, but I try to incorporate veg as much as possible too. Gotta stay healthy!! This salad…

Pork tenderloin & spiced eggplant
Grilled pork tenderloin & spiced eggplant is my latest “creation”. We eat a good amount of pork tenderloin in our house but not a ton of eggplant. So I’m on a bit of a mission to incorporate more eggplant into our diet. This spiced eggplant recipe is simply divine. Layers of flavour in it and…
Beef & Guinness Cottage Pie
Yep. You are reading this correctly. Beef & Guinness cottage pie is a thing!!

BBQ Korean Chicken
BBQ Korean chicken is on the menu today. Not in the form of spicy fried Korean chicken but my version of a classic roast chicken using Korean flavours. It’s a super simple dish to cook. Spatchcocking the chicken helps speed up the cooking process, and the rub/glaze is just simply killer – no other way…
Grilled prawns & saffron aioli
Today we are all about grilled prawns!! More specifically, grilled prawns & saffron aioli. Summer has just ended here in Australia, but it’s starting to warm up in other countries. Luckily I can still get hold of fresh prawns and veggies in the market. Ask me about pork mince, beef mince, chicken breasts, or even…
Crispy Pork & Papaya Salad
Who doesn’t love the sound of some crispy pork & papaya salad? Recently Riverview Farms launched an absolutely delicious hot roast pork with crackle nationwide to Coles.

Horseradish Butter
Super simple recipe this week! This horseradish butter is a cracking one to use with steak, roast beef, roasted veggies and to be honest on toast too 😉 A mixture of some simple fresh herbs, a little acidity from a splash of lemon juice and a few spoons of horseradish cream and in about 5…
Vanilla Coconut Rice Pudding
Rice pudding is an old school classic. Definitely was one of my favorite desserts growing up. I guess for a lot of people it’s a love/hate relationship. Growing up having sloppy over/undercooked pudding served over and over again in rural Ireland (just like porridge for brekkie!) or at the school canteen for dessert. There is…
BBQ Peri Peri Chicken
Homemade BBQ peri peri chicken is what’s going on at AnotherFoodBlogger’s house and on the weber kettle right now.

Loaded Smashed Potatoes
It’s that time of year again where the waistline took a beating and we are talking all sorts of nonsense about giving up drink, throwing a small fortune at gym memberships and private trainers!! Well, aside from that it’s also NFL playoffs and that means people like me are throwing the resolutions out the window,…
Miso Basil Aioli
Aioli – I’m a fiend for it and this miso basil aioli has become a firm favvof mine. My fridge has got so many condiments that I can whip out to make sandwiches/burgers a WHOLE lot better! Aside from the delicious shop bought ones like heinz ketchup, heinz aioli, sriracha & kewpie mayo I’ve got…

Miso Fried Chicken
If you don’t already know I’m quite partial to the odd bit of fried chicken. I mean what’s not to love. It’s low in calories, contains TONS of good fats, carbs – what are those. It’s the ultimate feel good about yourself meal!! The last part isn’t actually a lie. EVERY time I eat fried…
Maple Vanilla Christmas Ham
It’s that time of the year again!! We have just gotten over the US market going crazy with pumpkin spiced EVERYTHING!! Now it’s time for every foodblogger/food stylist out there to showcase 1 million and 1 ways to do the Christmas Ham. Figured it would be rude of me not to contribute so my 6…
Black Pudding Nourishing Bowl
It’s nourishing bowl time here in AnotherFoodBloggers home. Brekkie is often a bone of contention here. Between the 3yr old wanting to skip brekkie and play games “shouting play with me, play with me” from my wife and I trying to be healthy with my homemade granola midweek to demolishing a bacon/egg sambo at the…
Mango Chili Chutney
30+ celsius weather calls for MANGOES here in Queensland. The sign of the 100 cases of mangoes in your local grocery store is the beginning of summer for me. Truthfully (even though it’s hot as) summer hasn’t quite hit yet but when you see these big plump and juicy mangoes everywhere it just SCREAMS summertime. …
Creme Brulee French Toast
That’s right! You are reading correctly. Creme brulee French toast is officially a thing. That creamy, eggy, vanilla mix is being soaked up by a thick assed wedge of bread and pan fried until golden.

All my favorite items in one place right here! Steak tomato & brie crostini is a winner. It’s great as a summer platter to serve amongst friends or as a lazy but “fancy” dinner with the family. Read on and see how I turned up the yummmm levels on this by incorporating my anchovy caper…
Spring Green Shakshuka
Spring is in full affect downunder (Australia for those wondering!) and when spring time comes around it’s time for some spring green shakshuka. Truthfully though you can eat this baby anytime of the year. For some reason though we always thing of loads of green veg come spring time. So I figured I’d just jump…
Marmalade Carrots
Marmalade carrots! How the hell didn’t I think of this before?? I was recently in South Australia with my family spending WAY too much money on wine (said nobody ever!!). Anywho, we went to Kangaroo Island for the last few days and given all the wine tasting I was doing and my lack of motivation…
Black Garlic Aioli
This ain’t my first aioli recipe and I’m pretty confident this black garlic aioli won’t be the last either!! It’s a great and simple way to make a sauce to go with many dishes and tastes simple amazing too. Try this with some perfectly cooked eye fillet and tell me it ain’t a winner. WHAT…
Vanilla Maple Granola
Homemade granola – it’s WAY easier than you think! If your household is anything like mine then you 100% need to find a way to make granola cheaper.

Asian Papaya Salad

Miso Maple Carrots
Carrots carrots carrots!!! We eat an absolute TON of them on our house. Aside from the fact they are generally cheap they are so darn versatile. These miso maple carrots are a current FAV. More so mine than the “boss” as I’m a huge miso fan but she hasn’t complained yet – probably also as…
Asian Pork Meatballs
These guys aren’t your avg meatballs! Boy are they good – it’s almost shameful to not try them at least once. Adding some spring onions, aromatic ginger, sesame & garlic packs these Asian pork meatballs with maximum flavor. The sweet & spicy sauce takes it to another level and it’s the perfect dinner for any…
Homemade Crispy Shallots
If you are one of those people (like I used to be!) who buys their crispy shallots from the local Asian market then shame on you! No seriously, it’s totally acceptable to do so. BUT, once I started making my homemade crispy shallots I couldn’t believe I had wasted $$ on buying them. Read on…

Spicy Miso Butter
Butter – who doesn’t love it? Much like bacon it makes everything taste better. From basting your meat in frothy herby butter, simply spread on toast, melted to make my DELISH chocolate brownies to brown butter sage sauce drizzled over pasta you can’t beat it. With that being said, I decided to combine my latest…
Rocket & Broccoli Soup
Damn it’s chilly in the evening time! Which makes it officially soup weather. I am always on the lookout for different & interesting soups to make. But also for different toppings to put on the soup. Personally I find the toppings are often the best part. It’s where you can add some texture, acidity, fish…
Sumac Roasted Pumpkin
Christmas in July is a thing here in Australia. At first it seems weird AF considering it’s hot and sunny elsewhere in the world but down under it’s the middle of winter so bodies are in need of some heart warming dishes. My sumac roasted pumpkin with garlic labneh, toasted hazelnuts and pomegranate does just…
Chicken & Corn Salad
Crispy chicken skin is one thing but crispy chicken, avocado, corn and chili is well, simply a match made in heaven. This chicken & corn dish is one we have been eating for some time now. It’s been fine tuned, deconstructed, reconstructed and is now ready to share with the masses 😉 CORN Truthfully…
Chorizo Prawn Skewers
Luckily for me it’s pretty much ALWAYS grillin’ season here in QLD! Autumn is having highs of 24 c and lows of 11 c (but that’s at 4am!). It means I’m able to turn on my weber and cook cracking dishes like these chorizo prawn skewers all the time! Freshness from the delicious local prawns,…
Cauliflower Bacon Soup
Warming, creamy (without any added cream), texture from those delicious toasted croutons, saltiness from some quality bacon lardons and a nice anise hit from the tarragon. I think it’s safe to say the look of this cauliflower bacon soup is enough to make you wanna dunk your spoon in ASAP! WEATHER Cold!!! That’s how I…
Roasted peaches, ginger & mascarpone
Peaches, butter, vanilla, spices AND maple syrup – need I say more? Heck just scroll to the roasted peaches recipe down the bottom right now!

Chicken Satay Sandwich
Chicken satay is one of those things that I just HAVE TO get every time I order Asian takeaway. No matter how hungry I am or sometimes not even that hungry at all I ALWAYS have to order it. To me, it’s the mark of a good takeaway – if you can do satay right! …
Pumpkin Pork Risotto
Autumn has come here in Australia. Temperatures are cooler – still warm enough though in Brisbane but cool enough that I have stopped wearing shorts everyday!

Rocket Walnut Pesto
Pesto is so quick to make and utterly delicious. This simple rocket walnut pesto is exactly that! I had a catering gig the other day and had plenty rocket left over so figured it was time to re-create some recipes and snap some pics. The biggest issue being a food blogger (not a lover of…
Grilled Lamb & Black Pudding Skewers
It doesn’t get easier than cooking things on a skewer. I have teamed up with Clonakilty black pudding (which makes me very happy as I love the stuff!) so mixing it up with some delicious lamb mince, pairing it with a simple parsley salad and it’s job done!! Keep scrolling to read my ramblings and…
Crispy Fish Sandwich
Fried fish is one of those things I can’t live without. I feel healthy eating fish and then I feel like an adult / not being healthy by battering it and putting it inside bread! My crispy fish sandwich is quite simply a winner. Whip up some aioli using my pickled jalapenos and this guy…
Mushroom & smoked pumpkin appetizer
Like most families (I guess!), we tend to eat a lot of 1 course dinners. Then we hit the couch and have a cup of tea and TONS of chocolate there!! With that being said I don’t often get the opportunity to play around with starters as the “boss” would much prefer dessert. Although, I…
Homemade Breadcrumbs
An essential (in my opinion) recipe for any household to have. I’d be lying and so would many if you if you said you don’t throw out bread at some point in the week. Why not take a few mins to turn them into homemade breadcrumbs? Simple to make, saves on the shopping bill and…
Easy Pickled Jalapenos
So my love of all things pickled continues this week with the addition of this easy pickled jalapenos. These babies are being turned into some aioli later in the week along with some wombok & coriander slaw it’s gonna make a pretty wicked fish sandwich. Plus many more uses of them coming up over the…
Simple Crab Linguine
This simple crab pasta recipe certainly isn’t new and nor is it one I can say that I invented either. What I can attest to (in my humble opinion) that my version KICKS ASS!! Tons of finely chopped chili, plenty of spicy ginger & garlic, fragrant coriander leaf, quality olive oil and a good splash…
Chicken Caesar Sandwich
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…
Coconut Corn Soup
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…
Watermelon, togaroshi, feta & mint
Summer has drawn to an end here in Australia and on its 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…
Smoked Pumpkin Hummus
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…
Beef burger, brie, slow roasted tomatoes & onion marmalade
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 make…
My Irish Breakfast (with a twist)
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…
Roasted Mushrooms
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…
Tandoori Lamb Cutlets
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…
Roasted Garlic
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?…
Pickled Onions
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…
Stuffed Capsicums
These black pudding stuffed capsicums are simply delish. At first I was a little apprehensive of this recipe as I always thought stuffed capsicums were a little old skool. Not gonna lie though I had fun re-making an old classic. Using some great homegrown (Irish) products in Clonakilty black pudding and some butternut squash and…
Slow Roasted Tomatoes
We are HUGE fans of tomatoes in or house. Love them in any shape or form. This slow roasted tomatoes recipe is one we demolish about once a week as its is SO damn simple and tasty. I typically put them on around 4.30ish when I am starting to prepare the toddlers dinner. By 7(ish)…
Smashed Avo & Eggs
It wouldn’t be an Aussie brekkie with out some form of avocado on the menu!! My take on the smashed avo is with beautifully soft poached eggs, bacon, grilled baby broccoli and some homemade pistachio dukkah. Hungry? Well read on my friend! I have never eaten so much avocado since I moved to Brisbane! Don’t…
Pistachio Dukkah
Making things at home when cooking is, in my opinion the best way. Don’t get me wrong, like most people I don’t have the time to make everything myself at home. So what I do is weigh up the cost/time/taste factor. This pistachio dukkah is one that 100% doesn’t need to be weighed up. It’s…
Cured Salmon
This beetroot & gin cured salmon went down an absolute treat in AnotherFoodBloggers house. It takes a little to cure but surprisingly simple to make. I would thoroughly recommend anyone who likes cured fish or fish in general to give it a go. The colours alone will impress all your dinner guests! Cured Salmon Inspiration…
Onion Marmalade
Onion Marmalade – I freakin love it! Every now and again I make up a big ol’ batch of onion marmalade to add to my various jars of pickles and sauces in the fridge.

More importantly if there is a delay in food everyone isn’t too drunk on an empty stomach. This delicious beetroot hummus aside from being…
Panzanella Salad
Panzanella is one of our favourite salads to have in AnotherFoodBloggers house. The delicious crusty bread, fresh herbs and juicy tomatoes – it’s perfect on it’s own or with some grilled meat.
