Aloo Dhal

Posted on June 20, 2012

This is one of those recipes where the amounts are not exact, as I throw in whatever seems right at the time. A good dhal always happens like that. And I can’t find my photos of it, so here’s a … Continue reading →

Roasted Vegetables and Quinoa

Posted on May 15, 2012

Sounds weird. Tastes amazing. And is ridiculously simple. Do you have an oven? Can you turn it on? Then you can cook this. Serves a hungry horde (served it up on Mother’s Day to my very large immediate family), or … Continue reading →

Pumpkin, eggplant, and barley braised in miso

Posted on April 25, 2012

I *think* I may have stolen this from Gourmet Traveller – at least the idea of it. Hopefully they don’t mind. This is so easy. Definitely a colder weather dish. Ingredients 1kg or so of pumpkin (I used butternut, but … Continue reading →

Fettucine Carbonara

The Fucking Hipster Report: SoKi

Posted on January 14, 2012

Yeah, that’s right. I fucking said it. Wrote it, whatever. SoKi. I fucking hate myself. For the uninitiated, some arseholes on Twitter decided that south King St wasn’t a good enough location descriptor, so they needed to shorten it to … Continue reading →

The Wolf and Honeybee, Newtown/Enmore/Marrickville/St Peters/God knows

Posted on December 8, 2011

This is one of those new hipster cafes that keep popping up. In fact, to use hipster parlance, it’s quite like a pop-up cafe – no formal kitchen, just a toaster oven, a few fridges and a coffee machine, surrounded … Continue reading →

Soupe au Pistou

Posted on October 31, 2011

This recipe is not particularly authentic, I don’t think, but it comes close. Soupe au Pistou is a French recipe that comes from that time in Europe where travellers would go to some far flung land, in this case, Italy, … Continue reading →

Marrickville Pork Roll

Posted on October 8, 2011

The name says it all, really. From a tiny hole in the wall on Illawarra Rd in Marrickville, you get pork rolls. Or Banh Mi Thit, which is the correct Vietnamese term. No fuss, no fancy signage, no deals, just … Continue reading →

Celini’s, Marrickville

Posted on September 29, 2011

Saturday impromptu breakfasts are the best breakfasts since ever. I like that you can walk down Marrickville Rd and you have a fairly varied selection of places to eat (provided you can get a table) and not all of the … Continue reading →

Pea, Egg and Paneer Curry

Posted on September 9, 2011

I know, I know, it sounds weird. Don’t be put off. Just give it a try. I’ve only made this curry a few times, but it’s one of my favourites. I found it *somewhere*, I just can’t remember where. I … Continue reading →
