Sourdough Gingerbread Cookies With Lemon Drizzle Finish These sourdough gingerbread cookies are soft, gently spiced, and deeply comforting – the kind of Christmas baking that feels both nostalgic and quietly special. Fermented overnight for flavour and digestibility, they’re finished three ways: dusted simply with icing sugar, topped with a lemony icing dollop, or drizzled lightly […]
Twice-Cooked Tallow Chips with Rosemary & Garlic. Crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, infused with garlic and rosemary, and finished with flaky sea salt and black pepper. The perfect chip. Tallow is an ancestral cooking fat that’s been around for generations, but until recently it wasn’t commercially available. Now it is — and it’s a […]
Banana Espresso Maca Smoothie with Protein Ice Cream This recipe, adapted from my cookbook Wild Delicious, is a simple layered smoothie that’s insanely delicious and hits all the right notes. Creamy banana “ice cream” at the base, topped with a rich espresso–maca smoothie, it’s nourishing and energising yet feels indulgent. Definitely on the more decadent side […]
Tallow Salted Choc Chunk Cookies Crispy edges, chewy centres, rich dark chocolate, and a hit of flaky sea salt. These are next freakin’ level. Instead of butter, I used Harmony organic tallow, made right here in New Zealand – an ancestral cooking fat. It gives the cookies crisper edges, a deeper flavour, a richer mouthfeel, […]

Tallow Crisps with Rosemary Rosemary, sea salt, black pepper Tallow Crisps. Easily the most delicious crisp you’ll ever eat. I accidentally made the best crisps of my life. I had a spare moment in between recipes and thought I’d play around with some extra russet potatoes I had. I didn’t even rinse the slices – […]
Nourishment through Grief, Stress & Life’s Great Transitions I’ve been meaning to write up this little guide for a while, and I thought this was a good time to share it after someone recently reached out, asking how to nourish themselves after a physically demanding and emotionally traumatic birth. That question is close to home. […]
Charred Kale & Fennel Salad with Charred Lemon Dressing Welcome back to Episode 3 of my Farm Fire Food series with Mangaroa Farms. This one’s inspired by a tip from the fire-cooking legend himself, Charly Pretet of Terra Firma Dining, a globally renowned fire chef. He once told me that kale cooked over fire holds the scent of smoke beautifully […]
Fire-Kissed Steak Salad with Ember-Roasted Veg & Maple Red Plum Vinaigrette FARM, FIRE & FOOD SERIES This is one of my favourite ways to cook steak and vegetables – right in the fire. The vegetables go directly into the embers, their skins protecting them as they slowly blacken and soften, transforming into something deeply sweet […]
4-Hour Fire Pumpkin A smoky-sweet, utterly transformative way to honour the humble pumpkin. There’s something magical that happens when pumpkin is slowly cooked over fire. Left whole, nestled into embers for four hours, the skin chars, the flesh caramelises, and the result is something truly sublime – sweet, smoky, tender. Finished with salty feta, toasted […]
