Easy Nigerian Jollof rice recipe No Nigerian party is complete without plates of hot smoky jollof rice and fried rice flying across the tables. In fact, a Nigerian party without this rice dish is nothing but a meeting....
I’m a big fan of one pot chicken and rice recipes like Baked Rotisserie Chicken with Garlic Butter Rice, Chinese Chicken and Rice, Cheesy Chicken Broccoli and Rice and Chicken and Rice Pilaf. Big flavours, two dishes made in ONE pot! One Pot Mexican Chicken and Rice I’m dedicating this One Pot Meal to all the other people out there who a) love Mexican food b) love flavour explosions; and c) hate washing up 🙂 The idea to make this came about when I saw this Oven Baked Mexican Rice by Imma at African Bites, one of my favourite blogs....
This is a cookbook exclusive recipe! This recipe is exclusive to my debut cookbook Dinner which includes a how-to video for every recipe. Just scan the QR code! Just to explain…. I know, it’s confusing! You’re so used to getting recipes on my website – there’s over 1,200 of them, after all. And here you are looking at a tasty recipe video and I haven’t provided the recipe. 🙀 I’m not just doing this to torture you, I promise....
This Peanut Butter Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Loaf is possibly the most epic from-scratch creation to come out of my pokey little kitchen all year! All I wanted was a moist chocolate loaf with a creamy peanut butter filling baked inside. A quick Google to find a recipe, and I was pretty surprised that no such thing existed. Twelve attempts later, I understood why. Who knew it would be so hard to create a chocolate quick bread that is truly moist without using bananas, zucchinis, apple sauce or any other ingredient not typically used in cake?...
You can poach the fish in white wine and serve it warm with hollandaise sauce, or serve it cold with tartar sauce. I make salmon often and have a pretty large collection of salmon recipes on this website. I love sautéing salmon in butter until its skin is nice and crispy. And baked salmon is absolutely wonderful, as are these very flavorful grilled salmon and broiled salmon. Ingredients You’ll only need a few simple ingredients to poach salmon....
Super economical, makes loads, freezes 100% perfectly and insanely moreish. Make sliders or a big Southern BBQ dinner plate complete with classic sides like Mac and Cheese, Cornbread and Coleslaw! Pulled Pork No self respecting BBQ Shack would cook pulled pork in a slow cooker. They do an overnight smoke, with a pork babysitter on duty all through the night to stoke the coals, monitor and maintain the temperature, and occasionally give the pork a good spray with their secret-formula spritzer....
Juicy seasoned beef patties drowning in an outrageously delicious Mushroom Gravy, this Salisbury Steak recipe has been tried and loved by readers from all over the world… now it’s your turn! 🙂 Salisbury Steak There’s a homeless guy who lives at our local dog park. He’s a valuable member of our community – he knows all the locals, looks after the park like it’s his own backyard, and he tells the worst jokes....
Fortunately Chris is amazing at getting me to edge out of my comfort zone on occasion (he’ll be supporting me when I’m on stage at the Big Feastival in August), and I always feel great afterwards, but then I’m happy to get straight back into my little cozy office or the sanctuary of my kitchen and hide again. But…… that means I can share more recipes with you guys! This Salmon Sushi Bowl is the second recipe I’ve shared from my book (the first being my Chimichurri Steak Salad) I’ll probably end up sharing 3 or 4 altogether over the next few months, but I wanted to share this one with you whilst the weather is still lovely and warm....
Honestly, I could eat these things like popcorn. A big bowl of crispy sautéed potatoes with a sprinkling of Maldon salt. Now THAT is what I call a great movie snack. Maybe a few little dips - mayo, mustard, sriracha…I’m totally doing that. If you did want to eat them like a normal person however, then they are really great as a side dish for steak and fish, or creamy chicken dishes too....
Quick-to-prepare baked chicken recipes like Balsamic Chicken, Honey Mustard Chicken and this sticky soy chicken are great back pocket recipes because they’re just made with pantry staples. Finger licking good! Easy Baked Honey Soy Chicken The best way to make Honey Soy Chicken is to marinate it for 24 – 48 hours, followed by constant basting while cooking on the stove or BBQ and serving it with a glossy honey soy garlic sauce....
How about preparing this Stuffed apples with crumble topping for a weekend breakfast? You could top with a few oats, swap the custard for yoghurt - or just go ahead and have custard for breakfast. I won’t tell. I made this pud as a little treat that probably should have been enjoyed sat at the dining table over a leisurely chat. In all honesty, they didn’t even make it out of the kitchen....
This is one of those recipes that’s so easy and versatile, you don’t even need a recipe for it. The variation possibilities are endless in case you don’t have the exact ingredients called for, and I’ve provided a handful of ideas. So you can make this tonight with whatever you have! One of the pleasures / tortures of working in the food industry is constantly being surrounded by food. Whether on social media, research, creating and testing recipes, jobs for clients, for my monthly feature in Super Food Ideas magazine, and even when I’m with friends and family, I live and breath (and eat) food for most of my waking hours....
Served with a Peanut Coconut Sauce to really drive home the coconut flavour, this Thai Chicken is fantastic for the BBQ, stovetop or roasting. Serve this with a side of jasmine rice or Thai Fried Rice! Thai Coconut Chicken If you’re new to coconut marinades, you’re going to really love this Coconut Chicken recipe! Coconut milk is a brilliant marinade – it’s a flavour carrier, infusing the chicken with all the tasty flavours you’ve mixed into the marinade....
Don’t get worked up about wrapping dumplings! Wonky dumplings taste just as great. And you can always just seal them flat. Fast. Easy. Effective! Vegetable Dumplings There’s nothing quite like freshly-made dumplings. Reheated dumplings are never the same. The imperative for fresh-out-of-the-kitchen is right up there with freshly-made fish and chips, burgers and steak. And while there’s no shortage of excellent dumpling eateries here in Sydney, the sad truth is that when it comes to vegetable (rather than meat) dumplings, they range from mediocre to just plain bad....
I adore sprouts! If I could have them with every roast dinner I would. Generally I just steam them and serve them up. They’ve got to be perfectly cooked though - with a tiny bit of bite (no mushy sprouts here please). I even had sprouts with my risotto the other day. It couldn’t be helped, we’d bought over 2kgs of sprouts for these recipes, so we had a few left over that needed to be eaten ?...
Cooking frozen food in the air fryer I already shared a post recently on how to cook chicken thighs in air fryer from frozen, however today I am doing things differently. I am using the method I use to cook frozen salmon, which is to air fry the chicken for a few minutes first without seasoning it beforehand in order to deglaze the ice. That way the seasoning would penetrate into the chicken and adhere to the surface better....
I spent my childhood picking beetroot out of hamburgers. I spent my teenage years simply stubbornly refusing to eat even the smallest piece of beetroot in any form, no matter how hard my mother tried to hide them. Then in my twenties, I tried beetroot for the first time….and well, well, well, what do you know, it turns out that I actually LIKE it. More than like, I really like it....
Tossed with an Orange Poppyseed Dressing to double up on the citrus flavour and add a hint of lovely nuttiness, terrific festive looking salad! Here we are at Day 3 of the inaugural Holiday Salad Marathon, a series where I’m bringing you a new salad recipe every single day through to Christmas Eve! Today’s salad is a classic everyone should know: A Bitter Leaf and Orange Salad, ideal for holiday feasts both for its festive appearance and because it goes so well with rich and heavy mains!...
Ready in just 20 minutes and truly easy to make, this is the perfect recipe to make on a busy weeknight. Halibut is a white-fleshed mild-tasting fish, and as a result, halibut recipes are often mildly flavored. I actually prefer bolder flavors. Happily, blackening turns this fish into an intensely flavorful dish that my entire family enjoys. My first time trying blackened fish was during a visit, a few years ago, to the American South....
It’s as simple as can be: Rub the meat with spices, then cook it in the oven until the outside is browned and crispy and the inside is tender and juicy. It’s easy, tasty, and affordable! I really like making roasts for dinner. Similar to casseroles (such as this ground beef casserole), they provide lots of food for minimal work. They practically cook themselves! When it comes to pork, I do like making baked pork chops, but I have to admit that this tasty roast is much easier to make....
