Tender sponge squares dipped in chocolate icing and rolled in coconut, with a soft crumb and rich coating make Lamingtons a classic tea time favourite.
Aussie Burger with the Lot
Layers of juicy beef, melted cheese, crispy bacon, sweet pineapple, beetroot, and a fried egg create the Aussie Burger with the Lot that crunches, sizzles, and melts in your mouth.
BRIOCHE BURGER BUNS
I made these buns to serve with the Aussie Burgers I prepared for my “Come have some Aussie tucker, mate!” event that I organised as part of Foodbuzz’s 24×24 program. They were sensational! Soft and brioche-like… just like a burger bun should be. You can see what I mean from the pictures below… the dough…
Mini Meat Pies (Aussie Mini Beef Pies)
Crisp pastry on the outside and a rich, savoury minced beef filling inside make these Mini Meat Pies a must-try. Great for snacks, lunchboxes, or relaxed weekend baking.
Mini Vegemite and Cheese Sandwiches
Mini Vegemite and Cheese Sandwiches turn snack time into fun time. Soft bread, creamy cheese, and a thin layer of Vegemite make a gentle, savoury treat kids love to help prepare.
FOODBUZZ 24X24: COME HAVE SOME AUSSIE TUCKER, MATE!
Even though I am Italian, I have been living in Australia for the past 6 years. I love this country so much that I have formally become Australian a couple of years ago and I consider myself Australian as much as Italian. Australia is a wonderful country where people from different cultural backgrounds live together. …
Savoury Zucchini Muffins
Give lunch boxes a savoury change with these Savoury Zucchini Muffins, combining a tender crumb, grated zucchini and rich, cheesy flavour.
GNOCCO FRITTO
Today’s Regional Italian dish comes from the region of Emilia Romagna, an area where you find some of the best Italian food. Prosciutto di Parma, Mortadella, Culatello, Parmigiano Reggiano, Tortellini, just to name a few, all come from here. It is “foodie heaven” and I cannot recommend it enough for a taste of amazing Italian…
WHOLE WHEAT CHEESE CRACKERS
The other day, I was drooling over checking out Foodgawker and when I saw these, I just could not get over them. I don’t know if it ever happens to you… you know, when you see something that you “just have to make”, right then and there! Well, I was lucky enough to have all…
CASATIELLO
Today I want to share with you the recipe of what we ate yesterday. In Italy, the day after Easter is called “Pasquetta” and it is usually spent in the open air with family and friends. People have picnics in the city parks or go to the seaside or mountains for a day of fun…
SALTED CARAMEL CHOCOLATES
Today is Easter and Easter calls for chocolate, lots of chocolate! We will be having Easter eggs at home, but today I want to share with you the recipe for something else: chocolates filled with salted caramel! I love salted caramel and I still had some of the Blue Persian salt caramel sauce that I had…
FRUIT TARTELETTES
The other day, I made Genovesi Ericine and had some pastry left! I looked in the fridge and also found some crème patissière… and decided to whip up a quick dessert, one that I used to love as a child. Whenever we had people over for lunch, they would never come empty handed and they…
MUHAMMARA – THE SECRET RECIPE CLUB
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
SA PANADA
Today I want to share with you the recipe of a very ancient dish: Sa Panada. And when I say “ancient” I mean it, as it appears that it was already known more than 2000 years ago! The name panada literally means “ball” and it is a traditional pie from the region of Sardegna (Sardinia),…
ONION FOCACCIA
After sharing with you the Basic Focaccia recipe and the recipe for Focaccia with Olives, today I am going to post the recipe for my absolute favourite: Onion Focaccia! I love the taste of soft Focaccia topped with sweet onions… mmmm… I am getting hungry just by writing about it! The recipe is the one…
SATAY CHICKEN AND PEANUT SAUCE
I love satay, especially chicken satay. I always order it whenever we eat out and I see it on the menu. I really enjoy the peanut sauce. So, I thought of giving it a try at home. I looked around and found a few recipes, until I settled for Rasa Malaysia’s version. It was outstanding. …
TORTELLI DI CARNEVALE
This is a very special time of the year for all Italian children: it is “Carnevale”, the time to wear costumes and parade in the streets playing tricks on other kids and throwing coriandoli (round shaped paper confettis) and stelle filanti (similar to paper streamers) everywhere. It is like Halloween but it lasts longer (about…
HOME-MADE BACI PERUGINA
Valentine’s Day is here. I know it has become a day “used” by many companies to sell stuff you may not buy otherwise, but I still like the idea of a day in which to exchange sweet gifts with the person you love (in Italy, friends are not included on this day… it is strictly…
Nutella Pizza
A warm pizza base, plenty of Nutella, whipped cream, and toasted hazelnuts make this Nutella Pizza a simple dessert inspired by Italian pizzerias.
SUPER BOWL OR FOOTY NIGHT SUGGESTIONS
I must admit I am no football lover. In fact, the only football I like is soccer… I am Italian after all. After reading quite a bit about the upcoming Super Bowl though, I started thinking that the most fun part about the event would be watching it with friends and family while sharing some…
FALAFEL
The first time I ate falafel I was in Paris… as it often happened with Middle Eastern food that was almost unknown in Italy. I am talking about 20+ years ago! I still remember the shop I bought them from. It was near Place des Vosges, in my favourite area of town: the Marais, which…
SAUSAGE ROLLS
Today we celebrate Australia Day! You all know I was born and brought up in Italy… but I also became an Australian citizen 2 years ago. I love this country and I am very happy to be part of such a wonderful and diverse community. People often ask me how I cope so far from…
BUCCELLATO – CUCCIDDATU
Buccellato is a Sicilian cake traditionally eaten during the holiday season, especially on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve… so it had to be featured on the Sicilian Street Food New Year’s Eve Party I organised for this month’s Foodbuzz 24×24 event! It is a ring shaped shortbread cake filled with dried figs, raisins, candied fruits,…
Carbone della Befana (Italian Sweet Coal)
Don’t be fooled by its eerie look. Carbone della Befana, the traditional Italian Sweet Coal, is a wickedly fun and delicious treat to share at Halloween.
CASSATINE SICILIANE
These cassatine are the snack version of the bigger and more famous Cassata Siciliana. They are pretty much the same thing (apart from the lack of candied fruits on the top), only smaller and more “street friendly” as they are often consumed on the go on the busy streets of Palermo. They are delicious little…
PISTACHIO GELATO
Sicily is very famous for its nut production, especially almonds and pistachios. There is a town in the Eastern part of Sicily called Bronte which is reknowed for the quality of the pistachios that grow in the area. I wanted to make ice cream and serve it in a brioche (as it is typically served on…
Meatball Spiedini
Golden and savoury, Meatball Spiedini are crisp, layered skewers that combine bread, cheese, and meat for a simple, flavourful dish made to share at any meal.
