Father and son team, Chris and Julian Parisi, are at Flemington Produce Markets every day as well as working with an extensive network of growers to source great fruit and vegetables. Here are some of my favourite recipes using Parisi fruit and veg.
Greek Leek & Cheese Pie (Prasopita) Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Greek cooking class Inspired by Janni Kyritsis! I’ve always loved Greek pies like spanakopita (spinach and cheese), tiropita (cheese) and hortopita (wild weeds – see video below). Then I discovered this Greek leek and cheese pie, which might just be the most […]
Asian Warm Beef Salad Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Asian home cooking class inspired by Cheong Liew! I love Asian flavours, but don’t have a lot of patience for cooking elaborate Asian dishes. So I love this Asian warm beef salad. It’s easy to toss together, looks impressive and is full of flavour. […]
Guacamole & Pico de Gallo Like this recipe? Try it with Crisp Potato Skins! Guacamole is one of the quickest snacks to toss together and serve with drinks. It seems lime juice is not traditional – but it’s the best way I know to stop the avocado from browning, and I like the tang it […]
Breakfast Parfait Like this recipe?Find more delicious brunch recipes here! I’m not much for breakfast, except on weekends when I have time for a leisurely brunch on the veranda with a big bowl of coffee and my latest cookbook. Then I do like the crunch of toasted muesli (especially Phillippa’s cranberry granola) with the creamy […]
Chilli sin Carne Like this recipe? You’ll love my online cooking class featuring the food of America’s Deep South! Chilli sin carne is my vegetarian play on the famous Texan dish, chilli con carne. Since there’s no carne (Spanish for ‘meat’), it’s ‘sin carne’ (without meat). The idea would be an abomination to any self-respecting […]
Raw Artichoke Salad Join my food & wine tour to Southern Italy to discover more Italian regional specialties! Insalata de carciofi is one of my favourite ways to serve artichokes – simply thinly sliced with a tangy lemon dressing and a little salty cheese. Celery heart adds crunch to this raw artichoke salad and a […]
Lime Slice Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Caribbean cooking class inspired by Paul Carmichael! I recently had an abundance of limes, so made this delicious lime slice. You could use lemons, oranges or any other citrus, you might just want to adjust the sugar level depending on the sweetness of the juice. The […]
Pumpkin Soup Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Australian cooking class inspired by Matt Moran! Pumpkin soup is an Aussie classic, so quick and easy that it’s a staple on pub menus and family dinner tables across the land. I find many versions too sweet, so spice mine up with a dash of ginger […]
Spiced Orange Ice Cream Sandwich Like this recipe? You’ll love my online cooking class Inspired by Janni Kyritsis! I created these spiced orange ice cream sandwiches as ‘hot & cold cross buns’ for Good Friday, using a cross template cut from cardboard to decorate the top. They’re great anytime though decorated with other shapes, such […]
Mushroom Pappardelle Join my food & wine tour to Italy to discover more Italian regional specialties! I love mushrooms. ‘Meat for vegetarians’ one advertising campaign called them, and I’d suggest that this super quick mushroom pappardelle is so tasty that even die-hard carnivores won’t miss the meat. In autumn, when wild mushrooms appear in farmers’ […]
