25.01.2022 The colours in this fudge is what attracted me first, and then I realised it had white chocolate in it which I also love - but I know not everyone does! Worth printing off a copy to try at some stage ... dare I do that? Worried I might end up eating the lot on my own! xo

25.01.2022 Yes, it has been somewhat of an interesting year ... in all respects! And "food trends" were not what would have been initially expected ...so ... where's those yummy carbs!!!!! xo

24.01.2022 I love seeing little (and big!) kids in the kitchen ... with a little bit of guidance, anything is possible xo

24.01.2022 Scoring your bread ... this is so clever! xo

23.01.2022 So many affected industries ... this article explains what is happening in the "champagne" world xo

23.01.2022 I just had to share this post from the wonderful Celia of Fig Jam and Lime Cordial Blog! She comes up with some amazing ideas. Only last week I was gifted a packet of these roti ... and now I think I have to try Celias idea of using them for a sweet turnover pie. If you happen to have something similar in your freezer, then you may wish to give this a go too xo https://figjamandlimecordial.com//13/cheats-apple-turnover/

23.01.2022 Steaming animal proteins in the Varoma: I’ve cooked this 1kg piece of fillet which is destined for an Asian salad for tonight’s dinner ... being able to use the Thermomix Varoma means I don’t heat up my kitchen using the oven, or can use my oven for other things ... like making blueberry pie for dessert (family dinner night) When using the Varoma to cook any type of animal protein I take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking, I always - regardless of which Thermom...ix I have - fill the TM bowl with a litre of water, then cook the protein for anywhere from 12 minutes (fish) to 25 minutes (chicken breasts, pork or lamb fillets) to 35 minutes (for denser meats like today’s fillet) on speed 3. I test it after the cooking time and if I think it needs it I cook another 2 minutes. Remove the Varoma and allow the protein to rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes before cutting and serving ... today I let the fillet sit longer because I want the meat at room temperature ... it’s such a great way to cook and saves a lot of messing around xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #thermomixtm6 #thermomixtm5 #thermomixtm31 #varomasteaming See more

21.01.2022 CARAMELISED ONIONS: Yesterday I shared a post about caramelising onions in a slow cooker ... a lovely reader has alerted me to a recipe by Jo Whitton from Quirky Cooking who prepares it simply in her Thermomix ... this is definitely what I am making today to go onto our pizza tonight xo

20.01.2022 Hmmmm ... this idea definitely appeals to me ... and I do have more than a kilo of onions on hand! xo

20.01.2022 Great recipe too use up an excess egg white you may have in the freezer xo

19.01.2022 Just one word ... amazing! xo

18.01.2022 OLIVE OIL: This is a great video that explains exactly how olive oil is made, how to use it, and what to look for in a good quality oil. If you get to the last couple of minutes I really appreciated hearing this fellow answer questions, particularly relating to cooking with olive oil too xo

17.01.2022 Leek and Cauliflower Soup ... for dinner tonight and will be served dressed with toasted pistachios and a drizzle of basil and parsley pesto loosened with olive oil ... one of our favourite soups and very easy on the tummy after a big weekend of eating! Recipe is on the website under that title xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #thermomixtm6 #thermomixtm5 #thermomixtm31 #easysoups #calmthetummy

16.01.2022 Apple Spice Cake ... such an old recipe which I dig out every now and then when time is against me ... I don’t normally include toasted walnuts when making for the family due to nut allergies, but this cake isn’t for the kids so it’s included ... which is how I prefer it! What I love most about this recipe is that it can be prepared to a large extend the day before and then brought together quickly the next morning. I needed this to be ready to cut by 10am, so last night I ...toasted my walnuts, mixed the dry ingredients together, and lined by tin. This morning I melted the butter lightly, mixed in the eggs and vanilla and added that to the tin of pie apple in my mixing bowl, folded in the walnuts, then the flour mix and into the oven ... it took less than 5 minutes! Baking time is 1-1/2 hours which is a while but I had this in the oven by 6.30am so plenty of time to rest before cutting and serving. Recipe is on the website under that title if you wish to take a peek xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #applespicecake #morningteatime #quickandeasycakes See more

16.01.2022 A little bit of inspiration for a Sunday xo

15.01.2022 A simple wonderful cake created by Nagi from RecipeTinEats that I have converted to the Thermomix due to requests from friends. I have made this numerous times, and I am so glad it never fails to impress xo

15.01.2022 Potato Salad with Creamy Herb Dressing and Chorizo (optional extra) ... Ive wanted to post this recipe for some time and have finally got there ... if you love potatoes like I do then you may like this recipe too ... its on the website under that title xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #thermomixtm6 #thermomixtm5 #thermomixtm31 #potatosalad #familymeals

14.01.2022 I love reading stories like this ... I feel so much for the hospitality industry with all it's layers of people that rely on it, that it is good to see this ... slowly things are happening ... long may it continue xo

14.01.2022 GF BAKING ... some great tips in here xo

12.01.2022 For those that love a Mediterranean diet meal (like me), then this easy salad is going to appeal. It also keeps for up to five days in the fridge so that gives it another tick! xo

09.01.2022 Lentil and Kale Salad With Dried Cherries and Feta ... I know kale is a polarising ingredient but if you know how to prepare it, its delicious (process is covered in the recipe) ... this has become my familys favourite salad ... I didnt quite have enough kale as stated in the recipe (need 200g trimmed and washed) so I supplemented with baby spinach leaves ... recipe is on the website under that title xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #thermomixtm6 #thermomixtm5 #thermomixtm31 #kalesaladrecipes #familyfavourites

09.01.2022 I was recently asked "What is a sheet-pan meal?" ... and this is a good example ... everything is put into a roasting pan and baked together. I love the idea of this recipe, but I wouldnt toss it half-way through its cooking cycle of 15 to 20 minutes ... personally I would bake at 200 degrees fan forced for 20 minutes, but then check it and perhaps increase time for another 5 to 10 minutes if the veggies needed a bit more "char". such a lovely idea! Serve with a thick slic...e of toasted sourdough or other bread of choice and you have a delicious, light, easy dinner ... perfect for the weekend with a glass of red! xo

08.01.2022 COOKIDOO RECIPE PLATFORM: For those of you who use Cookidoo Recipe Platform with your Thermomix, please take note:

08.01.2022 Maple Roasted Pecans and Roasted Mixed Berries ... ready for a Saturday night dinner ... its been a while since Ive made these and they both compliment so many dessert dishes ... easy to do and both keep well in the fridge ... recipes are on the website under those titles xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #simpleentertaining #easydinnerrecipes

07.01.2022 Butterscotch Sauce ... nothing nicer to go to with date cake and ice cream ... which were having tonight! So quick and easy to make ... and keeps well in the fridge too ... youll need to reheat it gently when taken from the fridge as it sets up when cold ... recipe is on the website under that title xo #thepassionatepantry #perthfoodie #perthfoodblogger #foodbloggerperth #thermomixtm6 #thermomixtm5 #thermomixtm31 #butterscotchsauce #dessertsauce

05.01.2022 This is definitely one for the RECIPE TO TRY" file xo

04.01.2022 GF FLOUR BLEND: I love seeing what others do for their flour blends, and this GF version comes to us from Sophia. For those that would wish to mill their own flours, Sophia has confirmed in the comments section:... "You can definitely measure whole rice and buckwheat (into the bowl) and then mill 1 Minute / Speed 10" ... before adding the starch. This will save you having to buy those flours (white rice flour, brown rice flour, and buckwheat flour) already milled. Love recipes like this xo https://sophiaskitchen.blog//sophias-gluten-free-flour-bl/

04.01.2022 This is a bit of a read ... but sooooo interesting! xo Ian Barron Kathy Evans... Thought of you both when reading this! Know you will enjoy the experiment xo

02.01.2022 This was such a good read on the weekend ... it is true in so many ways. Having said that however, it is so hard sharing recipes ... there is a fine balance between writing too much instruction where you put someone off trying a recipe, or leaving too much out that there is risk of failure. But I do understand exactly what this article is saying, and lament at how the home cook (all of us!) can achieve the same end result as the "picture" that inspires us to try a recipe in t...he first place. Whatever you do, dont give up ... use what you learn to create your own masterpiece ... as the old saying goes: "Necessity is the mother of invention" xo

02.01.2022 I should have been Irish because I do love potatoes! xo

01.01.2022 Its taken me a few attempts to get this right, but Im finally there. Ive been gifted so many lovely lemons of late by a dear friend, and its wonderful to find ways of using them up xo

01.01.2022 I absolutely love seeing dishes - especially desserts - being made! It helps to explain so much of what needs to be done for success. Here Nick shares his recipe for this dessert, and leads us along to path to making it. He also explains at the start of the video why we need to "like" you-tube videos as that also helps with their distribution ... love Nicks work xo

01.01.2022 I have been following this fellow for his recipe demonstrations, and didnt know he had a farm ... loved hearing about his farm, his gorgeous goats (and babies!), horses and dogs xo
