Every time zucchinis turn up in my veg box (no, I will not call them courgettes), I have a craving to turn them into Creamy Zucchini Pasta. But I’ve resisted that urge and gone back to basics with an ‘Australian classic’ – at least, I don’t believe another nation has claimed this as their own…

Self-saucing puddings have always fascinated me. I mean, sauces usually get poured on top of the dessert.

Monday January 26 2009 was special for two reasons: it was the first day of Year 4706 in the Chinese Calendar (Gōngxi fācái!) and it commemorates the dumping of the first convicts in Australia, aka Australia Day. As we couldn’t pick between these two cultural celebrations, we settled on dim sum, mapo tofu and green vegetables for the Chinese part – and for the Australian part, well, what are our national foods?
