On a cold winter's night...

Not so cold if you live in Sydney, but winter nonetheless.

With almost three months into married life, things are settling and finally I am motivated to revive this blog =) And now that I have my own kitchen, I have been making more savoury, main-meal types of food, so the main reason for this blog is for easy access to recipes that I have used and tried, let's keep it brief and get into it!

Red Wine Beef Casserole


Ingredients:
  • Chuck steak ~2kg, diced, marinated with salt, pepper, coat with flour
  • Chicken stock 2 cups
  • 2 cups dry red wine
  • Herbs: Thyme, Oregano, Bay Leaves
  • Vegetables: Mushrooms, Celery, Carrots, Onion, Garlic
Brown meat first. Add stock, wine, garlic, onion, herbs, half amount of carrots and potatoes. Leave to boil gently (takes about 3 hours on the stove if you don't have a pressure cooker). Add remaining vegetables when the meat is tender or 30 mins before ready to serve.

Baked Whole Trout



Ingredients:
  • Whole Ocean/Rainbow trout
  • Marinate: Olive oil, sea salt, cracked pepper, garlic, thyme, oregano, lemon juice, lemon slices

Bake at 180 degrees C for ~30mins (depends on size of fish).
