Don't throw out the rind after devouring the delicious, juicy flesh of an ice cold watermelon. Pickle It! Delicious with cold meats, oily fish, chopped finely and tossed through a salad, as a garnish for canapes or wherever you'd like a bit of zing ....
A DELICIOUS FAMILY TRADITION
SAUTEED MUSHROOMS WITH RICE-CAKES AND SWEET SOY
I’m a big fan of Melbourne chef Andrew McConnell and I thought I’d like to recreate a dish I’d read about from his new restaurant, Supernormal. I can guarantee that the following would be nothing like his original, but when I made it for our gang of friends recently, we all loved it – happily ignorant, of course, of what we were really missing ....

CHILLED SMOKED SALMON LASAGNE
This smoked salmon lasagne, served chilled, is a favourite oldie but a goodie recipe from Steve Manfreddi which we have adapted by using gluten-free lasagne sheets for the coeliacs amongst us but it works equally as well with wheat pasta. The tomato sauces and parsley and garlic salsa can be made two days ahead and the whole lasagne compiled and refrigerated the day before ....
