After a dash to the fish co-op one afternoon we produced this delicious dinner of a Barbecued Snapper served with Spicy Mango and Avocado Salsa and accompanied it with the best friend of white fleshed fish - potatoes - simply steamed and tossed in butter. It was spectacularly simple and delicious ….
Inspired by my favourite, old, French cookbook, I prepared this mussel dish. It is very simple to make, the quality of the result relying upon the use of the very best produce you can lay your hands on. And aren’t we fortunate in Australia to have such ingredients to indulge our appetites and fantasies? ….
This is a recipe for XO Sauce with a difference. It is gluten-free, of course, which is the first difference. The next is that XO sauces usually include dried scallops and seafood but we use readily available bacon and mushroom to create the savoury complexity expected in an XO sauce ….
Versions of moussaka have been made in the Levant and the Balkans, in Egypt and Turkey and Greece for who knows how long. Proof of its popularity. But do we need another one? Well, this Mushroom and Lentil Moussaka has no gluten. It has no meat. It has no potato. The eggplant is grilled not fried ….
Deliciously succulent pasta tubes filled with aubergine, ricotta, spinach, parmesan and smoked Fior di Latte, topped and bottomed with home made tomato sauce ….. salivating yet? This week’s recipe is a home-cook’s dream as it can be prepared well ahead of time and gently reheated to serve topped with fresh basil leaves. It can be made in very large quantities for parties and freezes well ....
When this photograph was taken recently we were enjoying dinner together, which we rounded up with a lovely Cherry and Ricotta Tart. What a difference a week makes! Now that we’re all involved in social distancing, we’re reminded of all the wonderful relationships and friendships we share and the closeness we normally take for granted ….
Given the variety of seeds in this recipe we’re fairly sure these gluten-free Seed Crackers are good for you. Think fibre, potassium, magnesium, iron and lots of other minerals and vitamins. And if all that doesn’t inspire you to give the recipe a try then surely the promise of a delicious nutty taste and lots of crunch will get you going ….

Greetings from The Coeliac’s Revenge, for the last time this year! We hope you’ve been enjoying the various Christmas blogs we’ve been posting recently, and that we’ve been able to provide you with ideas and inspiration for the celebrations ahead. We also want to send you our best wishes and hope it’s a holiday season filled with good food and good cheer all round ….
Here’s a pretty and decorative idea for the humble roast potato. Take some potatoes, slice thinly, smother in garlic oil, pack tightly together and roast in a hot oven. When done, form them into a wreath shape, while trying to resist pinching the best crispy bits, add some green and red garnish and you have a Christmas decoration for the table and something lovely to go with the main course ….
Our Ocean Trout with Dashi Rice Pilaf is a great dish for an occasion and isn’t Christmas the ultimate occasion? The whole fish is butterflied and boned (by your fish monger!!) and then stuffed with a delicious rice pilaf and topped with zucchini slices. All this can be done well ahead of your guests’ arrival ….
Ceviche is a traditional Latin American fish dish and is full of tongue tingling aromatics such as lime and coriander. We’ve tweaked the regular recipe to include ginger and preserved lemon, but our Snapper Ceviche on Corn Chips is only gently spiced, so as to not overpower the subtle flavour of the snapper ….
We have not often discussed pasta on our gluten-free website. And that is because until a few years ago edible pasta of any shape, size or description was non-existent. But, Halleluja! Good quality gluten-free pasta can now be found in supermarkets around the country and and it’s probably high time to suggest some healthy and imaginative sauces to go with it ….
The three of us love a grand dessert, a big statement at the end of a good meal, as evidenced by the desserts in our SWEET REVENGE cookbook. But sometimes something simpler is called for. Our Gluten-Free Cardamom Crisps and Gluten-Free Almond Crisps are just the thing ….
