I have been lucky to meet @thehestonblumenthalteam many times. The first time was probably in the 90s when I went to The Fat Duck. It blew me away and Heston took me to his laboratory after which was pretty special. ⁠

He appears in the Margaret River episode of Lyndey Milan’s Taste of Australia TV series. Another time was when Tourism Australia “invited the World to Dinner” in Tasmania 10 years ago. This photo was more recent, when he came to Australia to promote some of his range of kitchen appliances. #throwback
Warm Chocolate Chilli Soft-Centred Puddings are really simple to make but impressive to serve. You can even make them in advance.⁠
⁠
Instructions:⁠
1. Preheat oven to 165°C (145°C fan-forced). Grease ½ – ¾ cup individual ramekins, dariole moulds or muffin tins with butter.⁠
⁠
2. Melt butter and chocolate in microwave or double saucepan.⁠
⁠
3. Whisk the eggs, vanilla, flour and sugar together. Add the melted chocolate and Vincotto. Mix well. (At this stage you can refrigerate the mixture for several days – ideal if cooking it for a dinner party). Pour into the prepared moulds and bake for 10 – 15 mins only or until just firm.⁠
⁠
4. Meanwhile, combine the chilli powder, ground cinnamon and cocoa powder in a bowl.⁠
⁠
5. Serve puddings immediately.⁠
⁠

Happy Diwali everyone. I feel inspired to share one of my favourite Indian recipes that I often make for friends, why not try making it this weekend?⁠
⁠
Prawn moilee is from southern India and is easy to make and tastes amazing. The flavours are fresh, simple and highly characteristic of the cuisine of the region. You can find more of these recipes in my Just Add Spice book available on my website.⁠

I want to express how fortunate I have been to have @maxinpuglia as my local, bilingual tour guide three times in Puglia. His fun enhances everything and as he points out, what a great “office” to have.

Are you joining me on my 2025 Puglia tour?

Do you often cook with nuts? This #NutDay why not try my Goats Cheese Tart with Pinot Eschallots & Walnuts recipe.⁠
⁠
This is a great recipe for the pastry novice using whole-wheat olive oil pastry.  Extra-virgin olive oil and water are mixed through flour; no rubbing in of butter is required and no resting before rolling out, either.  I cooked this at the De Bortoli Vineyard in the Yarra Valley using local cheeses from Yarra Valley Dairy.⁠
⁠
Also, walnuts contain an omega-3 fatty acid that is important for reducing inflammation, which in turn can help reduce the risk of heart disease. For this recipe, ensure your walnuts are fresh.⁠

I met @JamieOliver several times in his early years. On his first visit to Australia in early 2000 we pre-recorded a segment for Fresh With the Australian Women’s Weekly which had not yet launched. A year or two later he was back and this snap was from a breakfast with him I attended. How much younger we both look - but still going strong. ⁠
