This is sort of like a tuscan tortellini soup but there’s no meat! The depth of flavour comes from the mushrooms being browned and the parmesan -both umami rich ingredients that make for the most delightful and comforting pasta filled soup. It also comes together in less than an hour which is always a win when it comes to comfort food.
This is such a flavoursome risotto thanks to the Parmesan stock you use to make it. It’s still a delight with vegetable or chicken stock but the Parmesan broth is a flavour power house and basically free to make so you should totally try it!
This is the easiest pasta dish in the world! I’ve always been dubious of one pot pastas due to the whole non traditional nature, but who doesn’t want less dishes to do? The Smokey cheddar is perfectly balanced by the acidity of the KEENs mustard powder and the brightness of the tomatoes.
This is the perfect thing to make at the end of summer. Make as much as you can be bothered to make and freeze it, for those colder days. Heating up your frozen stash will take you right back to the scent and flavour of summer.
After watching so many people make the viral baked feta and tomato dish that Liemessa started making, I knew that this was one food trend I wanted to get involved in. I mean I love pasta so why not?! But it’s summer and I also love salad, and I’ve been weirdly craving lentils. So this happened instead. All the flavours of that pasta but in a lentil salad. It’s so good. I still love the pasta version too though!
At this time of year I’m obsessed with eating salads. They’re quick and easy and exactly what I feel like eating on a warm summer’s day. The following are my current favourites.
Well it’s been another week full of changed plans and awful decisions. We were meant to be in Sydney right now, seeing my partner’s family but unfortunately the latest outbreak has meant that trip has been canceled. Thinking of all our loved ones in Sydney right now, I know your plans have been thrown into disarray!
This one is totally inspired by one of my favourite lunch bowls at Tinker but it’s a simpler version you can make at home without having to create loads of components. I add nuts to it for extra protein but you could add fish, chicken, an egg or tofu if your tummy is really growling.
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.
This pasta is a go to. I often cooke tomatoes like this, lightly mash them with the roasted garlic and toss that through pasta but the basil oil brings this dish to a whole new level. It’s fresh but full of warmth.
