Australia/50 recipes

This Jamaican Sweet Potato Pudding cake is smooth and creamy, the coconut milk, raisins and rum add huge flavor to this dessert.

Povlova is one of the most popular desserts in Australia. It's made with well whipped egg whites and sugar, baked in the oven under a low temperature. Airy and light, crispy on the outside, marshmallow-like on the inside. It's usually topped with freshly whipped cream and assorted fresh fruits.

These savory Mediterranea muffins are super delicious, chunks of feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, caramelized onions and roasted bell pepper are all in one bite. We are inspired by watching master chef Australia, they were making savory zucchini muffins; then we came out our own idea to make these savory Mediterranean zucchini muffins that are packed with flavors and yummy ingredients, ideal breakfast, snack or served as a side along with main course.

A self-saucing cake that's magically fluffy and creates it's own tangy key lime curd. Developed at our summer home in Key Largo with inspiration after watching Junior MasterChef Australia.

50 percent Reduced Fat Banana Nut Bread recipe

A very decadent dessert indeed. The chocolate roulade was packed with chocolate flavor, and the coffee cream was rich, creamy and delicious. You don't need much, only one slice is enough to knock your socks off.

Incredibly refreshing and tasty kiwi tomato salsa that is perfectly paired with Tilapia or any fish.

Semifreddo is another popular dessert in Australia besides pavlova that I made a few days ago. Semifreddo is basically made with egg yolks and heavy cream, it's rich, silky and decadent. Fruits, chocolate or nuts all can be added into the base, pour into a loaf pan, then simply freeze it until it's firm. It's usually served with fruits, or fruit sauce, or candied nuts.

Delicious brownies with marshmallows!

"Kohlrouladen" used to be a staple on the menu for regular people in Germany during winter time. The relatively long preparation and cooking time pays out, because it can be easily reheated over a couple of days and gets even better and tastier then. Fried potatoes complete the picture, but you can cook the potatoes also in the pot with the sauce, if there is space left. This recipe can be varied in many ways, be it the stuffing (ground meat here), or the sauce. The recipe is as traditional as it can be; the ingredients are adjusted to availability in North America (like Savoy cabbage in lieu of "Weisskohl", bacon to replace "Speckwuerfel"). For sure the ground meat can vary depending on preferences or diets - I bet quite often in the "good old times " regular people did not exactly know what's in the ground meat they got from the butcher - at least it was some meat, for most of the families only once a week.

This vegetarian burger is layered with grilled pineapple, caramelized onions, sauteed mushrooms and roasted beets with a slice of juicy steak tomato and some shredded lettuce on top. It delivers the most delicious veggie burger ever!

There are hundreds versions of this very Polish soup. Here you have an original proposition of mine. I used to cook it on the base of my favorite duck and chicken stock. The cream is a must to create wonderful pink color. Optionally you may add a quarter or a half of hard boiled egg to your bowl. By the way, I change my recipe sometimes, for instance by adding dried California prunes instead of sugar, or by adding some white vinegar instead of lemon juice.
