25.01.2022 BREAKFAST TOASTIE I love the classic ham and cheese toastie but this morning I made a Mediterranean version with homemade pesto as the spread, labeh, pitted kalamata olives and baby spinach leaves. I often make this for a quick savoury breakfast or for lunchtime. Absolutely delicious x #toastie #toasties #breakfast #lunchtime #isocooking #isolationfood #isolationcooking

22.01.2022 ARRABBIATA PASTA I love a good honest wholesome bowl of pasta and with the winter here in Australia I’m turning more towards comfort foods these past few weeks. Having spent time in Italy I’ve learnt appreciation for pasta and the many flavoursome sauces one can have. Today I made a Arrabbiata sauce and added a can of tuna. Delicious x #italianfood #arrabiata #pasta #isocooking #isolationcooking #dinnertime #dinnerideas #spaghetti

04.01.2022 BEEF CHEEK RAGU I like to take things slow particularly on Winter Sunday’s so it’s perfect for slow cooking. This recipe takes me about 4 hours to make from start to finish and the results are a rich flavoursome tasty sauce with tender shreds of meat to pair with pasta or creamy mashed potatoes. Simply sauté seasoned beef cheeks, add chopped onion, carrots, celery, red wine, garlic, herbs, salt& pepper, bay leaf, Star anise, cinnamon quill, tomato paste, canned tomatoes, chopped chilli, beef bone broth. Cover and simmer for 3 hours. Remove the cinnamon quill, star anise and bay leaf. Using back of spoon simply push meat so it’s falls apart and you have lovely shreds of meat. Stir and serve. #isocooking #isolationcooking #dinnerideas #sundayfunday #weekendvibes #beefcheeks #ragu
