Tsukune are Japanese-style meatballs which are tender and juicy and basted in a salty, slightly sweet sticky sauce. We've made ours using organic chicken mince, flavoured with spring onion, ginger and sesame oil. They'll be a winner with the entire fam and are perfect for eating when you're after something tasty but light.
This heatwave has us craving light meals, that come together quickly, without too much effort. The lovely Vanessa Gordon has shared her twist on the classic tuna Niçoise salad. She's used our fresh tuna steaks, as opposed to canned tuna and paired it with jammy eggs, Ortiz anchovies, crunchy green beans and potatoes, all dressed in a zingy vinaigrette!
One week before school's back, so time to get thinking about some recipes to get you through. We're reflecting on some delicious recipes shared by Hayley McKee of Patacake cookbook and Clementine Day of Somethings I Like To Cook as well as some of our own, to get you inspired for the busy months ahead!
Tom Sarafian's hummus has a cult following and we've been lucky enough to get our hands on one of his favourite ways to use it! Cashews are caramelised in butter, Aleppo pepper and smoked paprika and poured generously over the top of the blushing pink steak.
In celebration of launching the delicious dips of Tom Sarafian, we've asked him to share some of his favourite recipes for cooking a summer barby! Today, he's shared his recipe for Charcoal chicken, which is marinated in saffron, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper.
This recipe is so simple, quick and healthy. It is comprised of ingredients from the “Blue Zones” being Sardinia and Ikaria where people live the longest! This is partly because of the polyphenol anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory foods they eat.
Everyone loves prawn taco’s with a delicious homemade guacamole! This recipe also has added health benefits of sauerkraut and fennel added to the cabbage slaw to feed a healthy gut microbiome and support digestion.
These spice-packed meatballs are a wonderful addition to your summer cooking routine. The yoghurt and sumac provide tang and freshness to break up the richness of the lamb. Serve alongside a salad, rice or some fluffy pita.
A fresh and vibrant salad to serve alongside your Roast Turkey or Porchetta, by the wonderful Vanessa Gordon! This simple salad features fresh peas as they're in their prime and they're complemented with creamy buffalo mozzarella and sugar snap peas. Mint and lemon accentuate the freshness of this side dish, perfect for serving alongside richer cuts of meat.
Swap out your cloves for a funky, spicy, tangy, sticky glaze for your Christmas Ham this year. Clementine Day of Somethings I Like To Cook loves using a chipotle based hot sauce in her glaze. It’s got a nice smokiness to it, but you can go with your favourite hot sauce and it will be just fine.
Beef roasts can seem a little daunting to cook, but get your hands on a quality piece of meat and a meat thermometer and you're bound to succeed! Our Organic Porterhouse Roast is an absolute family favourite with the Hagen's and we've been lucky enough for Oly to share his recipe. He serves it medium rare and pairs it with a chimichurri dressing and crunchy cos heart salad.
There are two certainties post-Thanksgiving or Christmas, you feel a bit dusty and you have plenty of leftover turkey in the fridge. The best way to tackle that festive hangover is with a Turkey Toastie. With very few ingredients and a tiny bit of time you’ll be well on your way to recovery.
