Food porn!

So, hi everyone, I've moved in with Tara (yesterday) and today is my first full day of unemployed, arts student life. Although I took a resume to the cafe down the road so hopefully that will change! I digress. As a result, I've watched a lot of daytime TV today.

I am a sucker for cooking shows. Nigella is a perennial favourite, I didn't really get into MasterChef until the repeats were on during my lunch break at work, but any reality TV show incorporating food is a win in my books. Thus, I enjoyed the repeat of My Kitchen Rules today and THANK GOODNESS, its on tonight as well!

So! Here are some lovely recipes and cooking sites and that to lust after. I'm planning to try and post recipes of mine soon, but I haven't had to cook dinner here yet :D


Roasted Butternut Squash with Caramelised Onion, Gorgonzola and Crispy Fried Sage from Closet Cooking. That website is amazing, by the way. And my inner vegetarian loves a good vege meal.


The Lime Cheesecake that made me feel all hungry-like from My Kitchen Rules. I had a really good lime cheesecake on the weekend at Grandma's and I really need to either get the recipe or find out where she bought it. Cheesecake crust, along with apple crumble topping, is one of my absolute weaknesses.


Chestnut Gnocchi from Not Quite Nigella. I love, love love love, gnocchi, but I've never been able to make it very well. When I worked at the Italian cafe, the chef made me gnocchi in butter with fried bread and herbs for lunch one day and it was quite possibly the greatest thing I've ever eaten.



An actual Nigella recipe - Orange French Toast. I'm not the biggest fan of OJ (too much pulp! *shudder*) but this sounds yummy.

Any food websites you like? Recipes? General love of food?
