I mentioned in this month’s In My Kitchen post that I have been making a fab avocado smoothie on which I should do a post. Well, here it is. Continue reading

Prawn, Mango and Avocado Salad with Coconut Dressing
It is amazing how things turn out. Little did I know when I wrote my very first post, ‘Passionfruit Syrup’, that it would turn out to be my most popular. Nor did I know, a post on a very simple salad, ‘Prawn, Mango and Avocado Salad‘, would be my second most popular. (For the curious: my third most popular is ‘International Scone Week 2012’. I made pumpkin scones.) Continue reading
Spicy Pork Empanaditas with Chunky Avocado Relish
Here is a recipe from another of my favourite cookbooks: Canapes by Eric Treuille & Victoria Blashford-Snell. As the names suggests, all the recipes in the book are for finger food. It is great when you are having a party or for when you want an informal starter. I have made a lot of recipes from it. Continue reading
Creamy Avocado Dip
Here is a simple dip to serve at your BBQs over the festive season. It takes no longer to make than it would to go to the shop and buy a commercial dip. Continue reading

It is still warm in Perth.
The other night, we were trying to work out what to have for dinner. We wanted something light and simple. I went to Eat Your Books. I love that website. It tells me that I have 15, 845 recipes on my bookshelf (and they are just the ones they have indexed). I shudder to think how many I actually do have – more like 30,000 I would think… that should keep me busy.
I typed in ‘lettuce’ and ‘coriander’. I love coriander and thought a salad incorporating coriander would be nice and refreshing. Up popped (along with many others) this lovely fresh salad. It has the never-fail combination of prawns, mango and avocado. I was off to the shop in no time. Continue reading
