It was spectacularly simple and delicious ….

It is very simple to make, the quality of the result relying upon the use of the very best produce you can lay your hands on. And aren’t we fortunate in Australia to have such ingredients to indulge our appetites and fantasies? ….

XO SAUCE

This is a recipe for XO Sauce with a difference. It is gluten-free, of course, which is the first difference. The next is that XO sauces usually include dried scallops and seafood but we use readily available bacon and mushroom to create the savoury complexity expected in an XO sauce ….

CHOCOLATE, HAZELNUT AND SOUR CHERRY CAKE

I’ve been making this cake for many years now and I can’t quite remember from where the recipe originated.
