The combination of Swiss brown and porcini mushrooms with the scent of thyme, served atop toasted grainy bread, is what makes these magic. It’s perfect brunch food for any time of the year.
Type: Entertaining
Raspberry, Peach and Passionfruit Christmas Wreath
A pretty, puffy pastry filled with colourful fruits and a tangy creme fraiche makes a beautiful Christmas dessert.
Porcini Mushroom, Ricotta and Pine Nut Bruschetta
Delicious aromatic sautéed mushrooms on crisp bruschetta spread with creamy ricotta make a moreish mouthful!
Eggplant, Prosciutto and Mozzarella Stacks
These delectable little layered stacks of eggplant, prosciutto, buffalo mozzarella and a tomato fennel sauce make the perfect entree or light lunch. Assemble ahead and bake just before serving for easy entertaining.
Slow Roasted Tomato, Goats Cheese and Pesto Crostini
Crisp crostini with creamy goats cheese, juicy slow roasted cherry toms and a dollop of pesto…yum
Italian Veal with Tuna and Caper Sauce and Asparagus
This is my take on vitello tonnato which is the perfect alfresco summer dish. I like to add elegant asparagus spears to finish the platter. The girello can be cooked and the mayonnaise made the day before for easy serving later.
