Chicken Feet in Black Bean Sauce

Chicken Feet in Black Bean Sauce

I know that you are probably asking yourself why chicken feet. Because I love offals! They are very cheap to buy, they are packed with flavour, yes it takes very long to cook them and break down the protein, but trust me the end result is so worth that extra time. I have never ever

Ethiopian Clarified Butter

DSCF3403

This is no ordinary clarified butter everyone. It is aromatic and turns anything into delicious and irresistible meal. Traditionally it should have 2 ingredients that I couldn’t find here in Australia. And if anyone of my Ethiopian fellows knows where I can buy them in Perth, I would appreciate it if you let me know.

Bugs and Mangoes

Let’s talk about bugs! If you are not from Australia then you may not be familiar with them. They are not the crawling insects that are gross to see. Bugs are delicious crustacean (that look like fossils) that are underestimated in other parts of the world. A few week ago I received a special message

Paella (Vegetarian)

Paella

Our Daring Cooks’ September 2012 hostess was Inma of la Galletika. Inma brought us a taste of Spain and challenged us to make our very own delicious Paella! I made a vegetarian paella, because we don’t eat certain types of seafood and I didn’t add peas as we don’t mix legumes with cereals. I loved

Veal with Mushroom

What’s the purpose of  a vacation to you? For me it’s a period of time that I dedicate to activities which I normally wouldn’t do. Vacation is a period where I forget work and all that is related to it and I dedicate my time totally to myself, my husband, my home and my personal

Lime marinated Steak with Goat Cheese

Lime marinated beef with goat cheese

Let me start by saying that my two summer Cinema nights were absolutely stunning. I was born in 1984, so I wasn’t given the chance to watch The Blues Brothers when it was released for the first time in cinemas. And I also couldn’t see Bob Marley and his movement. So for all these reasons,
