This is my slightly more refined and less carb heavy version of the classic seafood and steak, or as most Aussies refer, Surf & Turf. The result is a winning combination of seared scallops & crispy prosciutto served with cauliflower puree and raspberries, alongside slices of pink beef fillet drizzled with truffle oil resting on a…
Running. Love it or Hate it?
Running. Love it or hate it? It’s usually one or the other. I am a lover but wasn’t always. I understand that running can be tough, tedious and will at some point hurt your knees. I also believe however that once you master running it elevates your ability to tackle all kinds of exercise and…
Three Cheese, Honey & Spinach Filo Pie
I am definitely a savoury-tooth and therefore a big fan of filo pastry. Unlike short-crust or puff-pastry, filo contains zero fat being made out of only flour and water, and also happens to be a great source of protein (approx 10grams per 100 serve). Therefore, when cooking with it you can add good fats and…
Indian Spiced Pork & Zucchini Patties
This is what I cook when I am craving indulgent things such as hamburgers and meatballs. In fact, I often end up preferring these patties as not only are they waistline friendly and nutritious, they are also packed full of flavour and if cooked properly sticky and sweet on the outside and super soft in…
Mid-Week Roast Chicken & Apple Salad
I understand that during the week the last thing you want to do after work and gym is spend hours in the kitchen. This is why I think picking up a roast chicken is one of the best ways to still eat well and serve something worth getting excited about. My roast chicken salad involves…
BAKED Sausages
I discovered a new method to cooking sausages that got me pretty excited. No longer do I need to worry about burnt on the outside and not cooked in the middle, nor fuss about with constant turning in a pan. You see BAKING sausages is the new way forward. Not only can you literally throw…
Spiced Pork Mince w Avocado & Yogurt
The ultimate in mid-week, low-carb eating. Organic pork mince is an absolute staple in our house as not only is it compatible with so many spices and sauces (Italian, Asian, Indian – you name it) it is also high in protein, low in saturated fat, easy to prepare and a little less rich than beef…
Glitter Roots & Metallic Lenses
It’s that time of year in Sydney where the warm weather and back-to-back festivities allow you to have a little extra fun with fashion. Glitter roots are something my girlfriend and I recently experimented with, and besides the fact you will end up with glitter everywhere and on everyone for the rest of eternity, it…
Breakfast Day and Night
Breakfast foods are my absolute favourite so I often cook them outside of morning hours. My approach is always packed full of good fat, low in complex carbs and high in protein, offering a great way to watch your weight, enjoy your food and keep you full. Now in order to make a breakfast dish a little…
The $10 Wine that Blew my Mind
Having worked in the wine industry for the majority of my 20’s, one of the perks was getting to taste and learn about some of Australia’s most beautiful wines. One of the most consistent things I found was that anyone that worked with wine, had a serious preference for Riesling, a grape variety miss-understood as…
Bandana-Rama
My love of fashion kicked into full force in the early 90’s and I became a pretty preoccupied tween obsessed with expressing myself through my clothes. Not much has changed, and at 32 I get serious fashion nostalgia when anything from my teenage years comes back around. Over the last few years I have noticed…
Dinner Party Seafood Pasta
Vongole & Garlic Prawn Spaghetti. This dish would have to be in my all-time top 5 favourites. To me, nothing beats the texture and flavour of an al-dente spaghetti tossed in olive oil, chilli, lemon and herbs, the addition of seafood simply takes it to the next level. Cooking the vongole (pippies) in white…
