What's your favourite winter meal?
You can tell it's REAL food - even when it's frozen. We believe in making and eating real food. Food that's made by hand, using only the best ingredients. With care and attention, and time for the flavours to slowly develop - just like you would at home.
Take our Vegetable Lasagna. Our Italian chef makes all the pasta fresh every day, by hand, using Australian Durum wheat. Layers of silky soft pasta are covered with tomato sauce using Italian tomatoes and paste with onions, garlic, oil and fresh basil. Bechamel Sauce (full cream milk, butter and a little nutmeg) is added, together with fresh pumpkin, zucchini, and ricotta; white wine, eggs, celery, onion, garlic, olive oil, and salt and pepper. Mozarella is added, and then grated aged Grana Padano cheese from Italy are added. That's it. No chemicals, preservatives, additives, thickeners, 'milk solids'. 'dried whole milk', canola oil, colours........
We don't need any additives: as soon as they're cooked our lasagne and cannelloni are snap-frozen to seal in the nutrients and flavours. Meaning they contain only real food. Just like you would at home.
If you're having to isolate at home, we can make the next few days much easier (and tastier) for you.

Caramelised Pork with Asian Pickles and Rice. The latest authentic dish from our new Singaporean chef (joining our Beef Rendang and Malaysian Chicken Curry).
The pork belly is cooked twice so the fat is completely rendered down and the meat is super tender. It's then tossed in the Asian caramel sauce - adding a lovely caramel-chewiness and flavour to the meat (and the rice that soaks up the sauce). The pickles add balance to the flavours and textures. While there is chilli in the recipe, it's not at all overpowering. It just adds to the flavour and gives a background warmth.
It seems to have become a new fave as some people are ordering 3 or 4 at a time.re to edit.
Lunch today: Confit Duck Poke Bowl. Using our own confit duck (which really, really is as good as you’d get in a restaurant!) this is ready in a flash. And super-healthy.
We popped the duck in the oven for 10 minutes to warm through, under a hot grill for another 5 for the skin to completely crisp up – and then shredded it all with a fork. Super tender and tasty.
While that was happening, we threw some fresh crispy baby lettuce into a bowl, added avocado, cucumber, radish and some kimchi – together with some brown rice we had in the fridge (pre-cooked with turmeric and ginger)
We added the shredded duck to everything in the bowl, and tossed on a little olive oil, and a splash of some fabulous local apple cider vinegar we found at @tanbella_orchard (We went there a couple of weeks ago to pick our own apples. Nothing like fresh, crisp, juicy apples straight of the tree! A great morning out. So lucky to have this on our doorstep.)
The amount of duck you see here is slightly less than half of one of our confit duck portions – so you could easy make poke for two.
Our chef puts these lamb shanks in the oven at 5am, and allows them to slowly cook for hours till fall-apart tender. They are cooked IN our traditional tomato and vegetable sauce, so that all the natural flavours develop and deepen over time. Just like you would at home – if you had the time.
We use only the best produce: Prime Aussie Lamb, that’s been french-trimmed by hand. The sauce is made to a traditional recipe, and includes our own stock, tomato, garlic, with rosemary, thyme and bay leaves. (And, of course, red wine.) The oil we use is Tuscan olive oil.
Our Slow-Roasted Lamb Shanks come in a double pack (to share), and also in a single-serve (one shank served with our creamy mashed potato).
The shanks are gluten-free and dairy free. The single serve is gluten-free (because of the butter and cream added to the mash).
The perfect winter warmer, and very healthy and nourishing as comfort food.
Honestly? We’re the ones who are grateful.
We have such great customers and – because we’re a small, local, personal business - we always love it when they make contact with us.
If there’s an issue, we can sort it out. And if it’s feedback like this – well, it puts a big smile on our faces! 😀
