My Diane, mushy and pepper sauces are made from scratch with cream. Its too easy to have a fry pan on the go for sauces and just make what everyone wants.

I'm on the Gold Coast. I do miss the rush and adrenaline of a busy nights service and when everything goes along oh so smoothly, but I don't miss putting up with idiot waiters that forget to order something, then expect you to fix their stuff ups and have it at the pass pronto.
I was up at Mackay a few years ago, just up the road from you working at the mines, something different, but I prefer a la carte service, as I've worked at a few Fine Dining establishments and love the challenge of creating new dishes that blow peoples tastebuds away.

Keep those dishes coming people, and Vik, haven't seen anything from you in a while, what have you been eating, bubble and squeak?

Mmmmm... pizza.

Yesterday I made my special carbonara recipe:


1 500g package of pasta (spag or fettucine), cooked according to instructions.

1 small package of middle bacon, cut into little pieces and cooked in a little olive oil till crisp, then drained on paper towels (discard half or 2/3 of bacon drippings from pan)

1 brown onion & 12 medium-sized fresh mushrooms, sliced and sauteed in remaining olive oil and bacon fat. Season and remove from pan.

Pour 300ml Bulla light cream in the same pan on medium heat, season with salt, and stir frequently. Cream will get frothy and begin to reduce.
Save a little of the cream in a bowl, beat in 2 egg yolks till smooth.

Add cooked pasta to the cream in the pan, then pour the egg mixture on top. Mix thoroughly so the the pasta is coated.

Add the cooked bacon and the sauteed onions & mushrooms. Toss through pasta to distribute evenly. Add some chopped spring onion for colour and added flavour.

Serves 4-5. Top with desired cheese (the photo shows shaved Grana Padano).

The crispness of the bacon goes well with the chewy mushrooms. I love having different textures in a dish.

I threw together this burger today for lunch with whatever was in the fridge:

Beef patty - add onion, salt, pepper, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, egg, bread crumbs, steak seasoning, cumin, chilli flakes and mexican chilli powder to your mix. Mix it all together. Then when I made the patty I put some Jarlsberg cheese in the middle, so once you bite into it you get melted cheese inside. I would like to try this with blue vein.

Then a seeded bun, then on top of the patty I put cheese, egg, bacon glazed with Worcestershire, tomato, pickles, lettuce, mayo, tomato sauce, dijonaise mustard and relish. Very nice and very filling. Probably not too healthy but who cares.

First time I've looked in this thread. I'm inspired. Might go make myself a bowl of Chocolate Chip Icecream.
