The following recipe was inspired by last month’s Delicious magazine that had a Indian feature.  It’s a beautiful curry dish using your own roasted spices to make the meal.  The recipe that inspired this was the “Coconut Lamb Curry.”  I’ve swapped a few of the ingredients and used fake meat for the beef.
The great thing [...]

This recipe comes just at the time for most in Australia I bet, and for me, it is just what I need at the moment. I’ve just started back at work and I have caught the dreaded cold off my workmates! What luck do I have? So this Vegetarian version of the [...]

Having trouble getting your children to eat their greens? This might just help them enjoy it!
Slicing some brussel sprouts thin, adding some broccoli and frying it up with some fresh breadcrumbs and some tasty spices just might do the trick!  The lemon adds a little zing with a little spice of chilli, creates a nice [...]

I had been craving a nice and spicy Goan Mushroom Curry, whilst trying to make one, I swerved onto my own creation and this was the delightful result.
Instead of a creamy dish, I came up with a mixture of a fresh chilli, ginger and garlic with mushrooms.  It’s a light and spicy vegan version that [...]

On sultry nights here in Melbourne at the moment, this refreshing salad really hits the spot.
The tomato and onion salad usually is accompanied with curries in Sri Lankan and some Indian cultures.  I know it’s something that is definitely made when we’re having a curry feast!  However, I’ve also seen my true Aussie Grandmother (she’s [...]

This weekend I’ve been spending my time looking at houses.  I’m nearly ready to buy my own house with a great kitchen and can’t wait.  Our Government has increased the first home buyer’s grants but it looks like it won’t do much good because houses are going up at the same time.  I’ll have to [...]

This recipe here was made up after not knowing what I was going to have for tea.

The burgers are vegan and what’s great about them is that they are a great base for any type of burger.  Next week, I’ll post [...]
