Ice cream would have to be in my top 10 favourite foods, I can’t resist an ice cream on a hot day, of which we have had plenty in the past few weeks. I love recipes that are also easy to make and this one is first class, the easiest ice cream ever! With only four ingredients. If you needed a quick dessert you could not freeze it and serve it as a mousse as the mixture is simply delicious on its own.

A little Piece of Heaven
This little cake is from christmas, I thought it was about time I got around to posting it. For Christmas one year my boyfriend brought me the box set of Nigella’s DVD’s. So as my fairly newish tradition I like to watch her DVD’s and flick through her cook books each Christmas, to gain inspiration for the christmas meal. This next recipe is adapted from her Guinness Chocolate Cake recipe that is in her Feast cookbook.

Lamb Massaman Curry
I’m sitting here wine in one hand and my second helping of a Massaman curry in the other. I just had to get this recipe up here for you to try. It is… well, its brilliant (even if I do say so myself) Its one for the recipe cards 🙂
I first fell in love with Thai food about 12 years ago when I was a vegetarian (it lasted 5 years, pretty good effort I think). My friend, who still is a vegetarian, and I would go to this great Thai restaurant down the road Thai on High, at least once a week if not more. They served the best vego food.
On a recent visit back to Brisbane I of course had to go to this little restaurant for my favourite dishes. Sadly since moving to Melbourne I am yet to find a Thai restaurant that makes a decent pad see eww, so have had to find a new fav dish and that dish is of course a Massaman curry.
I thought I would give this little curry a whirl, as I had a leg of lamb sitting in the freezer screaming to be used, and some pineapple juice left over from cocktails. I however have to admit right here, that I cheated, Yes thats right I cheated, I brought the massaman paste and did not venture to make my own. The joys of living in a fast paced world.
