What’s your go to fry? Thick cut? A wedge? Skinny lil string fries? And how do you feel about sweet potato fries? I’m a big fan, but only when they’re crispy and that sweet flavour is balanced with some spice!
Cheesy Kipfler Potatoes
These are the greatest snack food for sharing with friends… something we can start doing again soon! They’re full of punchy flavours and great textures.
BLAT Potato Salad
Oh my, oh my. This potato salad is so good. It’s one of my favourite sandwiches but a salad. A potato salad! What’s not to love?
Zucchini, Potato and Pecorino Gratin
This easy, delicious vegetable bake is the perfect side dish or also works for lunch with a simple green side salad. So easy and full of fresh flavour. I love it with a little basil thrown over the top because basil + zucchini is a summer dream.
Cucumber and Pine nut Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing
The tangy dressing, crisp, crunchy cucumber and buttery pine nuts are a winning combination in this salad. It’s a great addition to any meal whether it’s fish, chicken a bbq or a vegetarian spread.
Mushroom Satay Skewers
These are so full of flavour and a great alternative to meet skewers. I tried a new technique to cook the mushrooms and it allows the marinade flavour to really soak in AND for the mushrooms to get lovely and golden.
Lemony Brown Butter with Greens and Radishes
This is everything. The perfect Christmas side, a decadent pile of greens that are taken to an entirely new level by the lemony brown butter that coats them. Salt, fat and acid harmonising over bright fresh greens and those little radish wedges that are transformed by the butter. The secret to this dish is using a beautiful good quality butter, like Lewis Road Creamery who have oh so kindly sponsored this post and make incredible grass fed butter.
Pumpkin, Goats Cheese and Basil Dip
This week I’ve been focused on using up any leftover food I had from a few events on the weekend. I’m getting better and better at creating less waste but as anyone who has hosted a dinner party knows, it’s less stressful to voer cater than under cater! This recipe could come in handy at Christmas time too as it’s a great way to use up leftover roast pumpkin. I have included info on how to roast the pumpkin though!
Smashed Potatoes with Parmesan Chilli and Baby Rocket
So the whole ingredients list is basically in the recipe title here! This simple side dish is so delicious, it takes time but very little effort. And they’re the perfect side dish for a roast or as a part of a big table of food to share.
Baked Sweet Potato Chips with Roasted Garlic Guacamole
I always think of guacamole as a summery thing but it’s Hass avocado season right now and they are sooo good! The addition of warm sweet potato chips to dip in and roasted garlic to add depth of flavour make it a winner for any time of the year.
