A spoonful of sugar

Expand / Collapse

Everybody thinks that their mum makes the best Spaghetti Bolognese in the world. Well, my mum actually does. Her trick: A spoonful of sugar for every 500m of tomato paste/sauce. It balances the acidity of the tomatoes and adds just a hint of sweetness to the meat.

Scrambling flavours

Expand / Collapse

Before you make scrambled egg, sauté some onions first and then discard the onion. Continue with cooking your scrambled eggs as usual. You will never go back to your normal scrambled eggs. Enjoy it.

Put some passion in your ice cream

Expand / Collapse

My friend Cynthia made passionfruit ice cream using light condensed milk 600ml, ice cream whipped and frozen passionfruit (leftovers). Freeze in ice cream container - simply the best (and simple to make).

Oil spill clean up

Expand / Collapse

My cooking tip is when we spill oil on the floor or bench don’t try and wipe it up, pour flour over the spill and then scoop it up. Very simple it works, you can also do this when you drop an egg.

Turn off the tears

Expand / Collapse

To reduce tears during the cutting off onions. I have found that by peeling them, slicing them in half and running them under a cold tap. This then reduces the potency of the onion and leaves me with fewer tears.
