PK’s NoRecipe Dried Citrus Slices
I love preserving food as much as I like growing it (and talking about it). So I did some googling on ways to preserve citrus after my lemon tree decided to try and bury me in fruit :). My lime tree is a heavy cropper too but in Perth it is not hard to find…

Fish cakes taste great and are an amazing way of making a little bit of fish go further. They were a staple growing up and one of the dishes my mum cooked us that will always stay with me :). I never use a recipe and no two batches come out the same and that…

PK’s Cheaters Red Curry Paste
Here is my, unashamedly, unauthentic red curry paste :). I use it to make Thai Red Chicken Curries and also Tom Kha Gai (one of my favourite south-east Asian soups).

Lime Common
I love cooking with limes (and adding slices of them to Gin and Tonics) just as much as I do sharing limes from the tree in my kitchen garden. No one in Perth will turn down a home grown lime, they are that prized. There is even a lime tree in my driveway ,that is constantly…
