Thermomix flavours of Mexico. Avocado crema corn.

by Dani

A brief hiatus in the kitchen from Vietnamese flavours. This is absolutely delicious and incredibly messy to eat. Particularly for those who are bearded. I have adapted a recipe found in an airplane magazine, apparently the original is from Cantina by Paul Wilson. I served this accompanied by skate which had been smeared in ground […]

Varoma. Steamed barramundi with soy/garlic/ginger sauce and julienne salad.

by Dani

Lil Miss had her sixth birthday party today. A lovely little affair at our favourite park. Lunch time parties tend to make me somewhat recalcitrant about cooking dinner. Entirely due to constant nibbling. Fortunately for the hungry men of the household, I was all set with a meal so light, delicious and quick to prepare […]

Man food. Beer and cheese nacho sauce

by Dani

This recipe for a happy man is very appliance versatile. The whole shebang can be done on the stovetop. It could be made between stove top and slow cooker, stove top and oven, in the thermomix, or in a combination of thermomix and slow cooker. No matter how you make it, it’s the perfect blend […]

Mandarin and Chilli Curd

by Dani

Yes, yes, once again I’m adapting from Adam Liaw’s Two Asian Kitchens to the thermomix. Any guesses what my favourite cook book du jour is? Little wonder, Liaw has harnessed most of my favourite flavours in one book and the majority of the recipes are quite time efficient, even more so once I convert them […]

Thermomix Chilli & Garlic Oil

by Dani

I love chilli and garlic oil. It’s brilliant to add a kick to cooking, dipping for dumplings, drizzling for soups. So many things taste better for a splash, drizzle or dunk of it. Like so many things it’s also a breeze to make in the thermomix and even though I use it a lot, one […]

Super quick brunch, lunch or dinner. You choose.

by Dani

February is the new December. Busy, busy, busy. Not to mention often too hot to cook. This little meal is not only versatile in the time of day that it suits but it’s delicious and can be made in 10 minutes from start to finish. What more could you possibly want? Poached salmon, egg and […]

Chez KP goes Vietnamese

by Dani

Ahh Vietnamese food. It never fails to delight. Never. Every dish was hungrily gobbled and loudly praised this evening. The soup was magical. My love for pho is not unknown but I simply did not have the time to make the stock. I’ve found my quick substitute soup. The beef and Vietnamese coriander soup is […]

Thermomix orange and basil sauce for fish

by Dani

The onset of spring has brought about a craving for light but filling meals here at chez KP. As the weather has been relatively cool, salads haven’t made much of an inroad to our table, instead, the varoma has been getting quite the workout. Fish and steamed vegetables, with or without rice has become a […]

Simple, cheap and delicious

by Dani

Sometimes, the simplest of meals receives the highest accolades. Tonight was one of those nights. Some simple little prawn and potato patties made from $3 of prawns and 3 potatoes with a simple lemon chive sauce and a mound of steamed vegetables. The family feed for just under $6 and the plates licked clean. There […]

Thermomix green peppercorn white sauce for corned beef

by Dani

Mea culpa, mea culpa. I am a bad blogger. In my defense, I claim good reason. The Bread Winner was a victim of economic downsizing which meant that I have been working every shift I could get my mitts on. Which, as it happens, was a lot. It’s mighty hard to blog from the depths […]
