This week I’m sharing my recipe for the perfect dessert this festive season – easy and delicious individual vanilla bean and mango pavlovas with macadamias. They are so simple to put together and, in this recipe, I’ll show you my method for only using two ingredients, egg whites and sugar, to make the best meringue.
Christmas is almost here for another year so today I’m sharing my perfect Christmas nut roast loaf recipe
It's almost Christmas and I've been busier than ever just like everyone else I'm sure! We have been spending the little bits of free time that we've had making mulled wine and watching Christmas movies.
I thought I'd best put the recipe for this delicious morsels here so you guys can always refer back to it for Christmases to come!
As you may have guessed, I love shortbread biscuits as Christmas time! They're delicious, buttery, crumbly and perfect to take along to work for your office Christmas party or package up as little gifts!
I'm so happy mangoes are in season again, so happy in fact, that I've had four in the last two days! Even Frankie and Lulu seem to like them, very swiftly nibbling the couple of bits I had dropped on the floor before I could get paper towel to collect it with!
I feel like we saw the first glimpses of Summer this week, which is super exciting for those of us in Melbourne. This year so far has basically been like Game of Thrones and Melbourne has been at ‘The Wall’ the entire time freezing their butts off in the blistering cold, while every other state has enjoyed the offerings of all the other seasons!
I'm kicking off my season of Christmas cooking with these delicious marbled gingerbread cookies! I went to Williams-Sonoma on the weekend as a treat (there's only one store in Melbourne!) and couldn't help myself when I saw a big Christmas tree adorned with copper cookie cutters! I chose a set of gingerbread men, all different sizes perfect for any occasion, a Christmas tree and a beautiful ornate star. I also picked up a box of Peppermint Bark because I couldn't help myself! It's too delicious and only comes around once a year!
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas and I for one cannot wait! It's my favourite time of year. Lots of cooking, and getting together with friends. Plus Michael Buble's Christmas album and 'Love Actually'. And decorating. There's literally nothing I don't LOVE about the festive season.
It's the second day of Summer but this morning felt like a big throwback to winter again. One day I'm sure I'll live in a city that doesn't have multiple personalities..ahem Melbourne I'm looking at you. 'Four seasons in a day' the saying goes about my home city and it couldn't be truer!
The arrival of december means the beginning of all things Christmas! I've got the tree up and decorated, the stockings are hanging from the mantle, the fairy lights are twinkling and now I'm getting busy in the kitchen making some healthy Christmas treats!
As many of you who follow me on instagram know, I have been working on something so special for what seems like AGES now! I wanted you to be the first to know that I have spent the better part of the year trying, testing, photographing, and building my FIRST EVER recipe ebook! And what's better?
