Sounds tasty though. Do you hit it with the stick blender? _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Thanks all, fully agree so been a bit disappointed lately to find a few places doing it the opposite, seems to be especially fish and chip shops and others that make the burger and put the salad on it whilst waiting for the burger to cook then just plonk the burger on top. |

Mix together in large bowl.
Dice 1 onion
grate 2 carrots and one large Zucchini
blitz 2 cups of cauliflower and broccoli
small handfull of lentils to soak up the moisture and help bind it

chopped parsely
salt & pepper and some Maggi Seasoning
Mix everything together using hands, spoon into a foil container and pack tightly.
Cook for 60-80 minutes in Air Fryer on 170. Eat with mashed spuds and gravy _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Turned out brilliant. Made another one today with the leftover mix with a couple of hard boiled eggs in the middle, at mums request.
Once it's cold you can slice it thin and it's sensational in a sandwich. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Warm night, finally, making a Prawn and Mango salad for dinner.
Best ones I've eaten were at Palm Cove and Darwin Casino. Hoping to go better. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Prawn and mango salad, hard to beat. Don't forget the mint!
I started a food passport group with a small crew from my local bowlo and we tour around the ethnic clubs in Brisbane. There's some hidden gems at those clubs.
Going to a Persian restaurant tonight. I'll be like the dog that stole the Chritmas ham afterwards with all of that lamb on offer. _________________ "The Club's not Jock, Ted and Gerry" (& Eddie)

Yum!
Bought $10 of fresh portarlington mussels, remove the beards, and cook in boiling water fora few minutes.
Made a kind of Laksa sauce, can of coconut milk, heap of garlic, ginger, chili (bottled type, I’m on holiday!) onion, capsicum, mild curry paste, (basically what was in the cupboard) anchovies for salt, added in some fresh prawns at the end, and the mussels, OMG it was heaven. Happily too spicy for hubby, and junior doesn’t eat mussels or prawns! Had it 2 night running. So good! _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |

Did some cooking for Mum and Dad while I visited them over the Xmas break.
Raided her herb garden for the basil. Mixed it up some olive oil, parmesan, garlic, and pine nuts to produce a pesto.
Spread that on a fresh baguette, topped with Roma tomatoes and some Persian feta.
Pretty bloody tasty snack if I don't say so myself.
(fresh pesto is easy to make and always a crowd pleaser)

One other side I can recommend is a warm zucchini dish.
Grab 2 Zucchinis per person, slice them up and bang them and some olive oil into a frypan until slightly browed on each side. Place those into a dish and into the oven to keep warm.
Heat some pine nuts in the same pan until lightly browned.
Take out the zuchs, put them in a bowl, throw in the pine nuts, lightly sprinkle with cumin powder, dried tarragon leaves and grate fresh parmesan cheese and some Persian feta into the mix. Salt and pepper for some added flavour.
Goes well with anything or a light meal on its own. _________________ "The Club's not Jock, Ted and Gerry" (& Eddie)

Finally, as figs are in season, I can't go past them in the f&v shoppe.
Lightly sprinkle some walnuts with water, and salt liberally. Bang those into the oven, on medium high, for about 5 minutes, or until nicely toasted
While that's happening rinse, then half the figs. Put them on a serving plate with a base of rocket.
Pour some of the best honey you can find over the figs, put a dollop of burrata cheese on top, then grab your walnuts and place one one each of the figs.
If you haven’t tried burrata, it’s fresh Mozzarella’s rich cousin. It’s actually fresh cheese curds, mixed with cream, and wrapped in Mozzarella skin. When you cut it, the creamy center just oozes out.
They're bloody delicious, matter of fact I'm going to do some now. _________________ "The Club's not Jock, Ted and Gerry" (& Eddie)

Sounds good Laurie, fresh simple stuff.
@ TP, I've never eaten mussells. They have freshwater ones in the Murray, you'd want to be fkn hungry to eat those things. People used to use them for fishing bait, the only thing that would eat them was the Carp. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |
