How to make Australia Day Gluten Free Lamingtons
Margaret Fulton - who is our grand dame of cuisine Down Under - reckons that this popular Australian cake was thought to have first been made for a tea party for Lord Lamington, who served as Governor of Queensland from 1896 to 1901. Over the years Margaret judged a lot of lamington competitions and they seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. The lamingtons she was most familiar with were always small and dainty. Years ago she appeared on a television show with Barry Humphries and made some … [Read more...] about How to make Australia Day Gluten Free Lamingtons
Recalculate Your Plate with Karen & Tom
Hands up if you've ever asked out loud "Hey Siri, what's for dinner?" If your hand went up, I bet Siri didn't reply "Roasted cauliflower steaks with Thomas hommus and rocket"! That is unless you asked the original Aussie voice of ’Siri’, Karen Jacobsen, a gorgeous gal from Mackay, Queensland, Australia, who's been telling people where to go for quite some time. While hers is the voice of reason we can trust, did you know that through her songs, concert performances, and speaking presentations, … [Read more...] about Recalculate Your Plate with Karen & Tom

Roast pork with gravy
Here's a traditional pork roast perfect for Christmas Day or any Sunday lunch. I've used Bangalow Sweet Pork from ur friends at Trevor Mead Quality Meats here in Byron Bay.

How to make vegetable stock
You can put almost any vegetables into a stock to create a beautiful, aromatic foundation for recipes. Onions, leeks, carrots, parsnips and celery are popular, as are the trimmings of dark green leafy vegetables. Adding tomatoes will alter the taste and appearance. Adding potatoes, mushrooms or eggplant, for example, may cause the stock to be cloudy and these vegetables can also absorb the liquid (just like a sponge) rather than infuse it. … [Read more...] about How to make vegetable stock
How to make a peppermint paleo slice
At the time of writing this post early 2014, I was becoming more and more intrigued by the Paleo way of life so I experimented with grain free snacks and came up with this treat. It needs refrigerating in the warmer weather, which we're loving here in Byron this summer. Substitute the nuts, dried fruit and seeds for whatever you have in your pantry and just use more vanilla or maybe lemon essence or zest if you have no peppermint oil. This is the ultimate raw Paleo treat – no cooking … [Read more...] about How to make a peppermint paleo slice
Hazelnut, spelt and cacao cake
We've been crafting new recipes and refining old ones for the new look website. Here's one we whipped up a while back and it's had a few tweaks since then. The chia seeds help make the cake so moist but the real secret is in the raw cacao nibs, so don't even try to use anything else. Spelt is an ancient grain, popular in Europe. It has a more robust flavour than wheat and bakes well with hazelnut and cacao. I find that some people can digest spelt flour more easily than wheat flour. You can … [Read more...] about Hazelnut, spelt and cacao cake
