I hadn't made these biscuits since school cookery lessons. The beauty of these biscuits is that you usually have these ingredients to hand, so can whip up a batch in a very Martha Stewart way ... anyway, I used butter, not lard and rolled the... — Kate in Katoomba Feb 14, 2009

Vietnamese Chicken & Coleslaw Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kookaburra  

Yum, this is a wonderful recipe. Have to say that I made it with a free range BBQ chicken as it was just too hot to put the oven on. Very refreshing and complex flavours yet very easy to put together. Do try this one. — Kate in Katoomba Feb 2, 2009

Layered Sun-Dried Tomato and Basil Pesto Dip

Posted by HannahSve  

What a great dip. Extremely easy to put together and hugely complimented when I took it to a Christmas party. It even looked Christmassy with the green pesto bottom and the sundried tomato top. I added some fresh oregano to the pinenut topping and... — Kate in Katoomba Dec 15, 2008

Red Velvet Cake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

This cake looked fabulous and everyone loved it. Personally, I would have liked a little less sugar and a little more cocoa, but that can be fixed next time I make it (and I will). Many thanks for the recipe. — Kate in Katoomba Jan 14, 2007

Pesto Pastry Stars

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Chef floWer  

Fun and quick and easy to make. The pesto was good but you could vary the recipe using lots of different combinations. They look very pretty as part of a Christmas buffet. Thanks for this one as it looked like I'd made a lot of effort (when I... — Kate in Katoomba Jan 13, 2007

Rolled Oats Shortbread

Posted by Dorel  

These were simple and delicious. I added a drop of almond essence and rolled the cookies into balls that I then flattened with a fork. Everyone loved them and they were greated as part of a packed school lunch. Thanks so much for such a great recipe. — Kate in Katoomba Mar 28, 2006

Plantain Chips With Chilli Mango Dip

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mrs B  

Wow, this dip just tastes like summer to me. The blend of mango, corriander (cilantro) and chilli is a real winner.... I imagine it would be equally good with seafood and chicken as well as chips. I used large potatoes, suitable for frying as... — Kate in Katoomba Mar 2, 2006

Christina's Killer Dip

Posted by MythThyng  

Absolutely delicious. I made this with reduced fat sour cream and cream cheese and you would never have known. Everyone raved about this one. The only thing I did differently was to cook it in the microwave and garnish it with chopped basil. I'll... — Kate in Katoomba Jan 29, 2006

Christmas Punch

Posted by Dancer^  

This is so easy to make and great to have on hand for kids and non-drinkers. I used ginger ale and added a little cinnamon. It looked very prety with some mint leaves on the top. Will definitely make this one again. — Kate in Katoomba Dec 27, 2005

This was such a delicious salad and a hit as part of our Christmas lunch. I used snow peas instead of the pea pods and they worked well. Will definitely make this one again, thanks. — Kate in Katoomba Dec 27, 2005

Christmas Scent

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

This was so easy to make (perfect for kids) and smells fabulous. Christmas in a jar. I think it looks good without the red colouring too. Thanks so much for this idea. — Kate in Katoomba Dec 20, 2005

Ice-Cream Christmas Pudding

Posted by JustJanS  

Delicious and how is easy is this to make?! I used a hazelnut and lemon gelato instead of vanilla icecream as a base, and omitted the nuts as a result. Even put in some lucky charms ... Merry Christmas and thanks for a great recipe. — Kate in Katoomba Dec 20, 2005
