caponata style beans
6 April 2011 1 Comment
Two recipes in one: a warm, chunky caponata-style salad of eggplant, zucchini, tomato, red onion, olives and fresh herbs; and a chilli bean dish with caponata-style vegies. Take one or both and you’ve got a peasant’s feast in no time at all. Serve the salad as a side or the beans as a main. Warming autumnal fare.
coriander + chilli pesto
28 November 2010 3 Comments
With a headstrong garlicky fragrance and backnotes of coriander, chilli + cashew, this pesto is a punchy little number. Spread it on sandwiches/wraps, serve it as a dip with corn chips, or heap it onto burgers. Add a bit more olive oil and drizzle over roasted vegies + couscous or dress a soba noodle salad with it. Stores in the fridge for several weeks.

Falafels: totally underrated, quick and damn delicious. Served with a simple slaw of red cabbage, yoghurt, mint and lemon. Simple summer food.

Sardine, lemon and dill toasted sandwiches (think fish fingers for grown ups), served with a crunchy salad of fennel, cabbage and radish. Lunch in under 10 minutes, or pair the salad with grilled fish or calamari for a light dinner.

Simple bowl food: warmed brown rice, slivers of ginger, chopped baby spinach, omelette style eggs and beansprouts. Season with sesame oil and soy. Quick as, super healthy, utterly delish.
strawberry thyme jam

Strawberries and thyme, muddled and simmered for five minutes into a rough jam. Ever-so-slightly savoury meets minimalist sweet. Serve warm on buttery sourdough toast.
