This White Sauce is great because it’s super easy, simple and quick to make and can be used as a base for so many things. I use it as a standard white sauce, cheese sauce, béchamel, pizza sauce etc. It’s also made using pretty much just cream and cream cheese so there’s plenty of healthy…

Bife à Portuguesa (Portuguese Steak)
This dish here, is my childhood! It was my standard order when we would visit a Portuguese restaurant and is to this day one of my favourite meals, Bife à Portuguesa! It’s a large steak on a layer of prosciutto, topped with a fried egg and surrounded by round cut fried potato chips. With the…
White Cupcakes
These White Cupcakes are my current pride and joy as they are my very first true baking recipe. They not only turned out great, it wasn’t anywhere near as hard as I expected to make them. I had a lot of apprehension knowing how different it is to bake with almond meal than with regular…
Caramel Buttercream
This Caramel Buttercream was a bit of a frustration at first, but once I decided on trying the ingredients used here, I found it came out well on the first try. I started this as a Salted Caramel Buttercream and the inspiration came purely from having a bottle of AO Salted Caramel Almond Milk that…
Asian Swordfish
I found this swordfish absolutely delicious! I grew up eating swordfish, but the kind my grandmother made was always a Portuguese style where it would be the swordfish with the skin and bone cut into very small pieces, floured and pan fried. It was amazing and one of my favourites, but I had never tried…
Beef Rendang
This was a recipe requested by my son after tasting the Beef Rendang at Maha Bunny Restaurant in Bali. He tried Beef Rendang from two other places but they were spicy for him while the one at Maha was mild. In this recipe I actually used a little hack I love and picked up in…
Beef Stroganoff
I know a lot of people favour a slow cooker recipe these days for Beef Stroganoff, but I’ve tried several and none I’ve tried are as nice as a Beef Stroganoff done in a regular pot! When I was a kid Beef Stroganoff was an all-time favourite, but it was that packet mix stuff rather…
Chicken and Leek Rissoles
These are definitely one of my favourite rissole recipes! Leek is absolutely delicious and I love adding it to dishes wherever I can. Chicken and leek happen to go very well together so when I was trying to decide what to do with the chicken mince in my freezer, these Chicken and Leek Rissoles popped…
Chicken Eggplant Prosciutto Roll Ups
This is of course based off my Steak and Prosciutto Roll Ups, except using chicken and with the addition of fried eggplant to really give it that similarity to the old Eggplant Parmigiana I used to love so much. These are made with my Homemade Passata and are awesome fun to get the kids helping…
Beef Bone Broth
If you’ve tried my Whole Slow Cooked Chicken and Bone Broth, then my Beef Bone Broth should be next on your list! This Beef Bone Broth tastes great and can be used as a base in so many recipes. Or you can drink it for electrolytes, gelatine and collagen as well as a host of…
