The real highlight though was the much less photogenic braised pork belly with eggplant - soooo gooood. The chocolate cake with condensed milk icecream and quince was also a winner. Cherry trifle at The Carrington. Chairman Mao's Red Braised Pork. 500g pork belly (skin optional). 2 tbsp groundnut oil. 2 tbsp white sugar. Plunge the pork...

Food food food food foooooooooooood is yum. Tuesday, May 22, 2012. I recently made a batch of lemon myrtle financiers with macadamia nuts and berries. (You can find the basic Bourke Street Bakery recipe here. I just added a couple of teaspoons of powdered lemon myrtle to the batter, and added nuts along with the berries.). 2/3 cup granulated sugar. 1 1/4 cups flour. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder. 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon peel. 2 teaspoons lemon juice. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir in the boil...

We all dressed up for the occasion (most of us anyway) and I teamed up with my friend Serena to make this pie, served with some damn good coffee. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Zest and juice of 1 lemon. 400g unsalted butter, at room temperature (I used 350g). Brown sugar for sprinkling. 300g raspberries (I used frozen). Preheat the oven to 170...

Last Tuesday I went to the Tomislav-Black Star Pastry SIFF 'special dinner' night, titled Just Desserts. Despite the name, I didn't actually. Believe it was going to be mostly desserts until we arrived and saw the menu. Yeah, I know. Caramel icecream and toasted peanuts - served in a cone, the topping snapped and crackled in your mouth like those kid's candies!

You had to duck past the peacock feathers to get to the bathroom. Feathery! Huuuge pots of tea, and giant scones with jam and cream. I love how the deer head has a little ribbon around its neck.

Food food food food foooooooooooood is yum. Sunday, May 22, 2011. To celebrate the return of Masterchef (which was about a month ago, so yes, I'm running well behind), my fellow devotees and I gathered for a ritualistic eating and watching session. Two years of this has taught us that we're addicts, and there's no point pretending otherwise. Have you noticed, by the by, how successfully Channel 10 has trained us in the binge-diet reality television cycle? 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 2/3 cup of Nutella.

Food food food food foooooooooooood is yum. Saturday, April 23, 2011. No better way to celebrate a 5-day long weekend then a barbecue, right? Even if it was. Pouring outside. I made a cake and some appetisers. Others supplied delicious salad, sausages, chicken wings, bread, cookies and more cake. It was delicious. Figs with goats cheese and proscuitto. 6 slices of proscuitto, each sliced in half lengthways. 120g goats cheese (or more to taste). Rosemary sprigs to season. 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon. 220g cre...
