 "The Heart of the Home" by Julie Goodwin | Do you have a collection of beautiful recipe books that you just don't use? I found myself staring at my beautiful collection just now and thought to myself what a shame that I don't use them. I love the chefs (they are my rock stars). I love watching them on TV or meeting them at food festivals but what an absolute shame that I don't honour them by actually trying many of their recipes. Its not intentional, its just that I have so many recipes stored in my head and thousands that I have taken from magazines or scribbled down while watching the tele. Well, that my friends is about to change! Starting now, I have made a pact to try at least one recipe per week from my treasured collection |
First up is "The Heart of the Home" by Australia's first MasterChef, the delightful Julie Goodwin. This is a beautifully presented book with full page coloured photos (I never cook a recipe without a photo ... it's like buying a dress without trying it on). Julie's cooking style is so similar to mine, featuring a repertoire of hearty, homestyle, comfort food.
The first recipe I am going to try is ..... drumroll please .... Chermoula Marinated King Prawns (from page 11). They look so good and will be perfect for a light, fresh Queensland summer meal. Stay tuned and I'll let you know how it goes. Have a wonderful weekend :D
