Recipe: Crustless smoked trout quiche
This recipe was inspired by a Facebook comment from my great friend Oriana. I used to spend most Sundays in her house. We played, laughed, and dreamed about starting a band. We played outside with her cousin. We went to the shops to buy bread, ham, and milk for afternoon tea. We wrote silly things.…Continue reading Recipe: Crustless smoked trout quiche
Recipe: Crustless sausage & spinach quiche
I know, I know… this is getting kinda boring but we’ve been really enjoying the variety of breakfast quiches I’ve been coming up with. For this one I didn’t even have to go to the market, as the sausages and spinach were already in my freezer. The snags were pork & ginger from Feather and…Continue reading Recipe: Crustless sausage & spinach quiche
Recipe: Crustless bacon & zucchini quiche
Another egg-based breakfast recipe featuring Trunkey’s products. This time it was the turn of everyone’s favourite: bacon.

Crustless bacon & zucchini quiche Yield: 8 – 10 servings Ingredients 3 tablespoons ghee or butter 500g good quality bacon (preferrable nitrate-free)…Continue reading Recipe: Crustless bacon & zucchini quiche
Recipe: Crustless ham, mushroom & spinach quiche
There’s a new pork stall at the markets. Trunkey’s pigs are not pasture-fed but at least they’re farm-raised with no added hormones or antibiotics. They sell the usual cuts and pork products but the thing that really got my attention was nitrate-free bacon (smoked and plain) and ham. Both contain only three ingredients: pork, water…Continue reading Recipe: Crustless ham, mushroom & spinach quiche
Recipe: Crustless morcilla & kale quiche
This is a very tasty and easy to make 3-ingredient breakfast. It freezes well if you choose to keep it for longer than a few days. If you don’t like morcilla (blood sausage) you can use chorizo or your favourite sausage, just keep in mind you might have to use more than two if they’re…Continue reading Recipe: Crustless morcilla & kale quiche
Recipe: Chorizo & cassava tortilla
I’m not an expert in the history of the tortilla española (Spanish tortilla or omelette), but I believe the traditional tortilla has nothing else than eggs, potatoes and onions. Outside of Spain, however, you can find tortillas with all sorts of ingredients, capsicum, chorizo and mushrooms being some of the most popular. This time I…Continue reading Recipe: Chorizo & cassava tortilla
Recipe: Palta rellena con camarones (stuffed avocado with prawns)
A few weeks ago my Facebook status reflected how I missed avocados from back home, after opening one I bought for $1 at Woolworths that was horrible inside. A few Peruvian friends chimed in, including Victor who lives in Spain and can buy Peruvian avos there, and Gino who lives in the Central Coast and…Continue reading Recipe: Palta rellena con camarones (stuffed avocado with prawns)
Recipe: Atún playero (beach tuna)
More than a recipe, this is a memory. When I was a little girl, my dad took us to the beach every single Sunday in summer (from December 21st to March 20th – he’s extremely punctual). My mum was, as always, in charge of food. She packed a big container full of tuna sandwiches and…Continue reading Recipe: Atún playero (beach tuna)
