BRIE AND PESTO GALETTE

BRIE AND PESTO GALETTE
Brie, Pesto and Potato Galette Quick midweek dinner, great brunch option or just nice lunch with a fresh salad and crusty bread. As usual, I bake, I photograph, I blog! From my home to yours, feel free to adapt this with any toppings of choice, throw in a different pesto, use walnuts, almonds, or seeds...

LEEK AND FOUR CHEESES

LEEK AND FOUR CHEESES
Leek and Four Cheeses Flan Well it is a bit of a cop out, Thermomix consultants received this recipe earlier in the month, but I am off to Darwin and Alice with Cyndi O’Meara come Sunday morning, I have the flu (will not get sick, will not get sick) and of course life stops for  no one…so...

SUGAR AND BUTTER IN PASTRY…

SUGAR AND BUTTER IN PASTRY…
Chocolate Butter Tart with Walnuts What else is there…really? If you want a decadent dessert, they usually include those three, and of course, add a few toasted nuts and chocolate and you really have the whole dessert ‘thang’ going on! I know this is a bit of recurring theme on this...

ONE TRACK {CHORIZO/TART} MIND!

ONE TRACK {CHORIZO/TART} MIND!
Macadamia Parmesan Pastry base Oven Ready Chorizo Pesto Flan Two tart posts in a row (almost)?? And chorizo…sorry guys, but I ate something similar at a cafe recently and as usual, figured I could improve it! Just a word, well a rant actually. I know I appear to happily write away to myself, churning...

TART ART WITH HEART

TART ART WITH HEART
Well this post had to happen sooner or later…and I guess it’s officially sooner! I have managed to go through all my posts and look what I found! I could start a tart and pie shop, clearly! Any potential partners out there, send me a message and I’m ready to go! First up in my self...

ONCE A TART…..

ONCE A TART…..
I know I know, ‘Tarts R Us’…that is what I could call this blog quite easily…and no other jokes in the tart arena are acceptable to me…so watch out! I did this during the week to great acclaim at the office and have to say that the sliver I managed to get before literally...

THE PIES HAVE IT ~ AUSSIE CUISINE?

THE PIES HAVE IT ~ AUSSIE CUISINE?
After many requests and many more half started New Year’s Posts (some of which will see the light of day, time permitting) this was a recipe I could get up on here quickly before the half way point of the first month of twenty ten was staring back at me. If last year was anything to go by, this...

RHUBARB STRAWBERRY VANILLA BEAN

RHUBARB STRAWBERRY VANILLA BEAN
Rhubarb Strawberry Pie Blink and its gone! (Don’t care what the vanilla has ‘bean’…what is it now??) I am on my first day of leave and the fragrance of a Rhubarb and Strawberry Pie with Vanilla Bean Pastry is wafting through the air as I write. It is almost done and smells absolutely...

‘OIL’ UNLOCK YOUR MASTER CHEF

‘OIL’ UNLOCK YOUR MASTER CHEF
Olive Oil Lemon Tart Not to put too fine a point on it, this was probably my finest hour! In fact, this recipe should really feature in a recipe Hall of Fame or something…no really! (If I don’t tell you how great it is, who will…all you anti blog ‘comments’ folk out there!)...
