Making Nana Retter’s Fruit Cake
Last Christmas I joined a long line of women in my family who have made my great grandmother’s fruit cake.
Gran Shirley’s Sally Lunn
We’ve got too many potatoes so I’m looking for new ways to use them. Turns out, a Sally Lunn is a pretty excellent way to use them.
Citrus meringue pie
A light and deceptively simple dessert that can be made in a range of flavour combinations depending on what’s available and what sounds yum!
Garlic and rosemary salt
I’m always looking for ways to use and store my garlic. Garlic salt is one of my favourites. The addition of rosemary really makes it pop!
Garlic Bread
A simple garlic and herb bread recipe.
Marilyn’s Cheesy Leeks
A simple, quick and utterly delicious cheese sauce used by my mother to hide all kinds of vegetables, including my favourite, leeks.
