This is quickly becoming a favourite for me and the household. I love it because it take 15 minutes, it is healthy and it tastes great. The boys are more about the taste and that sometimes I make wedges with it, anyway, that's another story. Enjoy xx Ingredients (for 2 - adjust as you need to) 2 thickish Gummy Shark fillets (the long skinny ones are not ideal) 1 chilli - chopped 1 large clove of garlic - chopped A handful of coriander - chopped Salt and Pepper Olive oil 4 thi

I've been home alone most of the week which means a couple of things... my house is tidy and I can eat what I like. I made things I've already blogged and one night I had eggs on toast, but I did make these quick and easy fish tacos on Monday when it was 36C and it was a total fire ban. I would normally do them on the BBQ but that wasn't happening so I stayed inside and did them in the pan. I halved the recipe for just me - usually I would use one smallish fillet per person a

I found this Jamie O recipe when I was looking for a simple Indian recipe - some of them are a little crazy for midweek. This worked, it was busy but pretty quick overall and delicious. A good way to get some lentils in (Noel doesn't like them but what he doesn't know won't hurt him!). Enjoy xx Ingredients 1 x 250 g tin of ready-to-eat Puy lentils - drained 1 heaped teaspoon garam masala 400 g quality lean beef mince olive oil 3 ripe tomatoes - chopped 1 thumb-sized piece of

This has been on the rotation for a while, its a good way to use sausages and not your average pasta dish. It's adapted from Jaimie Oliver's recipe and he says Jools craves it when she's pregnant. We just crave it sometimes because its yum! Ingredients A good lug of olive oil 6 spring onions - finely chopped 4 cloves of garlic - finely chopped 2 fresh birdseye chillies - finely chopped 1 carrot - finely chopped 1 stick of celery - finely chopped I red capsicum - finely choppe

One of our absolute favourites! It's not particularly traditional but it is totally delicious. It would be even better with homemade gnocchi but I don't have time for that after work. I do love to make a potato or a spinach and ricotta gnocchi when I have time so I'll post those recipes eventually. In the meantime here is a good, quick midweek dinner. Ingredients For the sauce Lug of olive oil Salt and pepper 1 tsp dried oregano 6 middle bacon rashers - chopped small 1 red on

This is one way to spice up date night. The rich buttery sauce has a bit of bite from the peppercorns and goes swimmingly with a medium rare porterhouse and a glass of shiraz. This sauce recipe will serve 4 or 5. Ingredients 1 can of green peppercorns 1 clove garlic - minced 1 good tsp butter 1/2 cup of dry white wine 1 tbs pouring cream Salt and pepper Method Melt the butter over a medium heat. Add garlic and fry until soft and fragrant (a minute and a half). Add peppercorn

This is a relatively quick and simple dinner for after work. Connor loves these - he had 8 last night... the joys of feeding a 12 year old boy! It has plenty of hidden veggies and none of those strangely coloured packaged spices - you don't need them. Ingredients Good splash olive oil 750g beef mince 2 cloves garlic - crushed 1 red onion - finely chopped 1 red capsicum - diced 2 bird's eye chillis - finely chopped 2 fresh limes 1/2 bunch coriander - finely chopped salt and pe
