• 15 Minute Rice - A Yummy Side

  This 15 minute rice was one of the first sides I ever learnt how to make as a child. I think it was my mother who taught me. Growing up, my family didn't have a lot of money. My amazing single mother worked three jobs to provide for my three sisters and I. Thinking back now, it was a blessing in disguise. We learnt how to cook using simple 'staples' and turned them into tasty dishes.

• Burrata with Grilled Red Peppers and Chimichurri

  My Burrata Cheese with Grilled Red Peppers & Chimichurri is the perfect appetiser for any event…. especially the AFL Grand Final or even Bathurst 1000! It can be made the day before and arranged on a plate the day of. Burrata is a cheese oozing with cream and curd called stracciatella and it has an outer shell made of mozzarella. Grilled red peppers are perfect with this luscious starter that can be enjoyed by 3-4 people. You’ll wish you doubled the recipe when you try it! It’s absolutely heavenly!

  I used my Ziegler and Brown Triple Grill BBQ with the grill grate from Barbeques Galore.

• Grilled Brussel Sprouts with Bacon, Spanish Onion and Kaffir Lime Leaves

  My Grilled Brussel Sprouts with Bacon, Spanish Onion and Kaffir Lime Leaves are an absolutely delicious side. Seared perfectly using the HexClad BBQ Grill Pan! It’s not always easy to find the right pan to use on a BBQ but the HexClad BBQ Grill Pan is nonstick (safe up to 482c), easy to clean and metal-utensil safe. I’m impressed!

• Grilled Camembert with Caramelised Onion & Rosemary

  My grilled Camembert with Caramelised Onion & Rosemary is every cheese lovers dream. It’s gooey, scrumptious and so indulgent! Cooked using a BBQ (I used my Ziggy Twin Elite BBQ from Barbeques Galore), it’s the quick and easy secret to entertaining. Or the perfect way to end the week paired with your favourite glass of wine.

• Grilled Cheese & Corn Roll Ups

  My Grilled Cheese & Corn Roll Ups are easy to make and delicious when you need to feed and please a crowd, without spending too much money! They’re also quick and yummy to make when camping or as an after school snack!
I use my Ziggy Twin Elite BBQ from @barbequesgalore.

• Grilled Fava Beans

  Ever grilled Fava Beans (AKA broad beans)? They’re super easy to grill and make the tastiest snack!

• Grilled Zucchini, Bean and Spinach Salad

  This salad is absolutely delicious and always a crowd pleaser to serve as a side. It can also be prepared ahead of time and eaten cold or warm. I use the Ziggy Elite Twin or Triple BBQ from Barbeques Galore.

• Homemade Tzatziki

  Homemade Tzatziki is creamy and delicious! It’s a yoghurt based sauce that can be enjoyed with all kinds of protein and veggies. You can add more garlic if you prefer but I like it mild. You’ll also find this tzatziki sauce in the cookbook I’ve co-authored with my sister, The Grill Sisters Guide To Legendary BBQ.

• Shakshuka on the Ziggy!

  This saucy, delicious and classic Shakshuka dish is such a favourite brunch meal in my family. It's so easy to make indoors and even easier outdoors (I started making it when we used to go camping a lot). I've used my favourite gas BBQ, the Ziggy Elite Triple Grill along with the fabulous Ziggy Carbon Steel Frying Pan 30cm and Portable Trivet accessories. The portable trivet turns your Ziggy BBQ into a gas stovetop! Give this recipe a try and let me know your thoughts on my social channels. Here it is:-
