Orange and Mango Cheesecake
You are going to be shocked, surprised, perhaps even disappointed…but this is not a Thermo recipe. I was hired recently by Lakeside Joondalup Shopping Centre in Perth to write some recipes for their Spring Fresh Food Promotion. This is one of them. I am not going to lie. I tried the recipe without the use of a Thermo, just to be sure it could be done. But then, when prepping the food for the shoot, I used Thermo. Easy. Clean. No stress. But should you be without a thermomix of any description…rest assured you can do this. The lovely pics are from Brook at Dezire Studios, who by the way, takes all my family pics. He is amazing. Do yourself a favour and book him for birthdays, weddings, bar mitzvahs, anything. I am happy to say, Joondalup were happy and now I am working on Summer recipes for them, again, without the benefit of a Thermomix. (Oh the mess!)
