chilli tofu recipe
It’s freezing today. I mean proper finger numbing, toe aching, shiver-inducing cold as cold can be. Perth is the craziest place of extremes, hot as hell in summer and then just as freezing as back home in NZ in the wintertime?! That’s why I enjoy spring and autumn so much, give me mild any day. […]
spicy coconut noodle soup recipe
A little bit salty, a little bit spicy, a little bit sour and a little bit sweet. This is my idea of the perfect bowl of soup. Add in some slippery noodles and a tangle of Asian greens and I’m one happy lady. As I’ve mentioned before, soup is not something I cook all that […]

gluten-free zucchini, mint + feta fritters recipe
It’s a little late in the season for zucchini (courgette) recipes I know, but if you are like me and have just been given two huge zucchini marrow, well, you’ll be looking for clever ways to use them up! Our little plant didn’t survive being transplanted from our last house, so this has been the first […]
roast pumpkin + brown rice salad w/ spiced coriander dressing recipe
I grew up eating brown rice and I think the first time I ever ate white I was already well into my teenage years. My siblings and I used to live off the stuff and my brother Ben mastered the art of a good cheesy fried-rice (brown rice, onion, soy sauce, sesame seeds and grated […]
