Slow-cooker Rogan Josh
I love this dish. I use hogget instead of lamb, for extra flavour. Cooking it in slow-cooker cooks the meat to melting tenderness with wonderful spice infusion. The dish is finished with yoghurt and saffron. Oh my. Serves 6 2 … Continue reading

Pork belly with quince and ginger
I picked up a pair of quinces at the Tumut Festival of the Falling Leaf. It seemed poignant, to buy such seasonal produce at a festival to celebrate autumn. I wanted to slow roast them with pork and a few … Continue reading
Chicken and sweet corn soup
I love this soup. My partner doesn’t like sweet corn, so I don’t make it when he’s around. But he’s out of town for a month. With all the fresh corn around, I couldn’t resist making it. Ordinarily I’d use … Continue reading
Chocolate braised oxtail with roasted cauliflower and mashed potato
