Almond + Vanilla Scones

Palio scone_MG_1981

I love to bake. Any chance I get, I’m in the kitchen experimenting with different flours, nuts and aromatics, filling my home with scents of vanilla and cinnamon. This is a simple recipe for scones, made with blanched almond flour and vanilla. They are based on a French macaroon style of recipe  and what I love about these is that they are so simple to make and are delicious served plain or topped with your favourite whole fruit jam. I often grab one  as a quick breakfast... Read More

Cauliflower Cheese

Cauliflower chGraded3_1929

Cauliflower cheese is an all time favourite of mine. It’s simple to make, using seasonal steamed white cauliflower as the base. I don’t really get into making traditional béchamel style white sauces made from white flour, butter, cream and milk. My white sauce is dead easy to make. It’s basically made from fresh and creamy ricotta blended with milk and a hint of nutmeg in my Vitamix and it gives a perfect result every time. For a richer flavour you can throw... Read More

Lean Beef Stroganoff

Stroganoff+Sauce_1960

The colder weather has inspired me to cook healthy comfort food at home. What I love about this stroganoff is that it’s a one pan dish that’s easy to cook. I like to vary the depth of flavours and use earthy herbs such as thyme, that marries perfectly with the mushrooms. Use what ever mushrooms you like in this recipe, i’ve used Swiss browns.  I often like to fold through a little quince paste at the last minute if I have some in my pantry, it adds a richness... Read More

Chia porridge with Pear Cinnamon + vanilla

GF Chia + flaxsed Porrij_Graded_1938

People often ask me what I eat for breakfast. Well for me that all depends on the weather, how I feel, what’s in season and my activity level for the day.  When it’s cold outside there is nothing better than a bowl of my awesome power porridge made from fresh pear, chia, flaxseed, a little spice and my choice of milk. The fruit varies but my favourite is ripe beurre bosc pear that is naturally sweet, juicy and full of fibre. It also has a smooth, buttery flavour... Read More
