PK’s Simple Tom Kha Gai
My way of making Tom Kha, a Thai coconut, chicken and galangal soup, one bowl at a time is great if you have a family with widely different stands on what they will or won’t eat. For example, I love tomatoes, mushrooms and spring onions so I use lots of them in my bowl. My…

How To Make Rick Stein’s Butter Chicken
You simply can’t get this dish’s depth of flavours using a store bought Butter Chicken paste or simmer sauce. The result is the most succulent chicken in a creamy, nutty, tomato based sauce. I won’t lie to you though. This is one of the trickier recipes on the blog. Notes: I hope to char grill the…

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s Osso Buco Slow Cooker
Considering how much I love lamb shanks I am surprised it took me this long to cook Osso Buco for the first time. I always use Hugh’s recipe for the shanks (River Cottage’s Citrus Braised Lamb Shanks) so it is a no surprise I am using his Osso Buco Alla Milanese. You will be using…

PK’s Slow Cooker Whole Chicken
This mouth-watering dish is designed to be super thrifty and dead easy to boot. I managed to use some old tired veggies and to get a free-range chook on special. I am also happy to say it took longer to eat the dish than it did to prepare it. I simply took a whole chicken,…

Basmati Rice
This rice variety is originally from India. It is characterised by long slender grains and light fragrance. It is my favourite rice as it pairs well with any dish that you would normally use rice, pasta or potato in. I have read that this variety of rice, even white, has a lower GI than some…

PK’s NoRecipe Nasi Goreng
This simple rice dish is as Indonesian as it gets. It is such a pleasant meal to make and eat. The secrets are the sweet soy sauce used in many Indonesian dishes, ketjap manis, and the addition of a runny fried egg. Best of all you can make it with any combination of ingredients, even…

PK Cooks Sticky Poached Asian Chicken Thighs
I saw this recipe online here http://www.taste.com.au/ and just had to try it. I also proved along the way that you don’t have to follow recipes exactly to get a great result. I did some steps out of order accidentally and had to rapidly reduce the sauce before everything went south. Everything worked out well…

PK’s Lazy Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff
This slow cooked dish isn’t going to win me points for authenticity but it is tasty, easy to make and kid friendly :). My youngsters insist on having the sour cream (that you would normally mix through) on the side and they are not mushroom fans. I feel however, that you need mushrooms for a…
