Brown Butter Pasta with Smoked Paprika

5 Minute Food Fix ·

2025/11/02

Both your hosts tend to obsess over foods, recipes or ingredients and deep-dive with said specialty before turning to grab a new obsession.For instance, Yumi (me) right now is in the thick of trying to make the perfect Char Kway Teow (fresh, wok-fried Malaysian noodles that are beyond excellent when done well).Simon revisits one of his past obsessions, sweet paprika, and is delighted to find a new way to cook with it that is both super-simple, and fast.The sweet paprika that Simon recommends looks

2025/10/26

MARMALADE shouldn't be out-of-reach for the average home cook!And if you LOVE the weird, spreadable, sour, sometimes bitter preserve, then you really must try home-made, because there's nothing as good available to buy in mainstream shops, although Simon does have a few he thinks are "pretty good".DELICIOUS RUBY BLOOD ORANGE MARMALADE1.5kg blood oranges1kg sugar2tsp agar agar powder (optional)METHODWash the skin of the blood oranges, remove any stickers and seeds and prepare to get chopping.Cut off

A delightful Sesame Crumble

5 Minute Food Fix ·

2025/10/21

I finally got my hands on a copy of Sami Tamimi's FALASTIN - and it's a remarkable cookbook. It's got one of my favourite tomato recipes in the entire world, a rice dish where you use Greek yoghurt almost as a stock to make a creamy white risotto (incredible), and this dish, which I have (since recording) made multiple times. It's easy, really nourishing, and has flavours that transport you to the wonderful culture and food of Sami's homeland.SESAME CRUMBLE50g white sesame seeds25g black sesame

2025/10/12

Yumi is going back to her mother's country with this particular culinary love affair.Zenzai is the name for Adzuki Beans when they're cooked and sweetened, but still hold their beany shape. There's fantastic info about it on this website which is particularly helpful if you love cooking Japanese food!Sweetened beans can be a weird concept if you're not accustomed to it - but give it a chance, it's extremely digestible and leaves the body feeling invigorated and powered!ZENZAI 200g Adzuki Beans1

Yumi gets excited to be tasked with the responsibility of cooking a cake big enough to feed a crowd, that is stable enough to take to the beach.It uses Nagi's 'My Very Best Vanilla Cake' - which is dead-set reliable and brilliant.A couple of variations: I cook it in a 28 x 35 roasting tin which I line with baking paper and give a light spray with cooking oil.I also always use coconut oil (the runny, liquid kind) as the oil in the recipe.Contrary to what I was planning when we recorded this episode,

One of Simon's cookbooks has gone to #1 in Australia for the past fortnight.It's called The Weekly Grocery Shop and you can buy it here.The idea kind of inspired Yumi to make croutons (again). This time using an innovation borne of necessity. But they're REALLY GOOD!Pre-heat your oven to 150C and find the biggest trays you have.Take one stale sourdough baguette and slice into the thinnest possible rounds.Lay out the pieces of bread like large coins over the baking trays.Use a microplane to grate a

Simon's amazingly healthful and generous Chicken Soup *IS* pretty winning.

'Cacio e Pepe' is having a moment - but Simon has a fantastic spin on the idea that makes it a great dish for ONE (*side eye Yumi*) and cuts the amount of carbs.Use one jar of fancy white beans, drain and cook up in a half cup or so of stock with a big knob of butter. Warm it up and then add a generous fistful of Pecorino cheese and a MASSIVE grind of freshly ground black pepper.
