Northern Italian 'cucina povera' cuisine at its best. Creamy polenta with a Portobello mushroom, white wine & truffle sauce. Absolutely brilliant in the cooler weather. Nth Italy grows huge corn crops cos we eat so much polenta up there, we're known as 'Polentons'. Portobello mushrooms grow wild in the forests, as do black truffles. Polenta is a staple, and is delicious made correctly. There's an old Friuli saying:
Vai u, Vai u polenta,
Ca' il formai
A le la dentra
Go in, go in polenta, the cheese is already inside. Often the super poor couldn't afford the cheese to eat with their polenta, so they'd say this rhyme to 'trick' the polenta (and themselves), and just eat it on it's own.
I've made enough polenta to last me a week as it cools into a solid block and has a variety of uses. And I LOVE it 😍💖

If you've never had chestnuts roasted over a wood fire then what are you even doing with your life?? At the annual festival , it's so much like an Italian fiesta it reminds me of Italy. It was a perfect sunny day to celebrate. Every box of chestnuts you buy comes with a free glass of wine so it's a most jovial event. And don't even get me started on the cannolis 😍💖🎉🌰🌰🌰🌰

THIS.
This high camp, 70's delight. May I present the Thermotray. Basically a glass hotplate to keep food and plates warm, although the small round hotspot could easily heat up foods to almost boiling. Mint condition, still in box, tested and fully functional. $8 at the local thrift store. I had to have it. I hate hot food going on cold plates, I have the luxury of space in this kitchen so it doesn't even take up counter space (I used the microwave nook because I don't use microwaves) . It is totally as camp as it looks 😻

I'm a chef. I'm also a professional organiser. Basically, I have monetised 2 of my biggest ocds. When I'm stressed, I tend to organise the kitchen. I'm stressed. The spice cupboard was in fine shape before. Now, it's fabulous! Plus a simple heirloom tomato & basil salad dressed with Moro Ev olive oil & Olsson's sea salt.

"The weekly shop" Every Friday, I pop into for my weekly vegetable shop. Sometimes I lash out and grab some seafood! Everything is super fresh, and prices are ridiculously good. There's 3 huge bunches of Kang Kong (water spinach)- almost 60cm tall. It's absolutely delicious stir fried with chilli, garlic and sesame oil. 2 huge bunches of coriander, over 1kg lemons, 1/2 kg bananas, incredibly good avocado, a mountain of aragula ($11/kg), Shimeji mushrooms, and an 'aust salmon'. It's definitely not salmon (tastes more like sea bass), but it's delicious and succulent baked whole and it's $10/kg. This fish cost $6 and will do me 2 big meals. All this for a total of $31 including the fish. THIRTY ONE DOLLARS. How convenient is your convenience food now?? None of these items are difficult to turn into delicious, simple meals. Or you can jazz them up fancy as well. For those wondering why I never get sick....this is why.

Oh this? A simple but delicious salad for lunch. Oven roasted beetroot, wild rocket, goats cheese and toasted walnuts. Dressed with a home made mustard vinaigrette made with products. Oh so delicious! They say you won't make friends with salad. But you will with this one!

I did not cook this absolutely delicious food, I just helped out in the kitchen and served drinks for a lovely client on NYE. The hostess is an amazing cook! I was treated so very well, including eating some of this fine fare for my own dinner, and had a spectacular view of Sydney harbour for the fireworks. Every single guest at the party treated me like an old friend, and were all delightful people. It hardly felt like work at all, and was a big step up from my original plan of sitting at home with the cats. What a pleasure it was to help out at such a lovely occasion.

Simple flavours, easy to prepare. And delicious. I add loads of extra coriander because I love it. Lunch is served!

Christmas spice cake with blueberries and chocolate Biscoff icing. When being festive, cake is required. I love a bit of cake! Although this behemoth was a tad more than a bit. Merry Christmas folks!
