Mother’s Day breakfast

THE LEAVES ARE CHANGING COLOUR and there is a chill

in the air. The days are shorter and it’s the season to spend some time with those we love in the comfort of our homes. We believe that so many memories are made in the kitchen and we want to help you create them for your family. So, for our Autumn Issue, and with Mother’s Day coming up, the Kitchen Warehouse team decided to ask a few of our favourite mums what they love to eat — and cook. For our first story, we spent the day with Natasha Morgan and her young daughter and son on their small farm just outside Melbourne. Natasha’s kids love to cook and you will find it impossible to resist their homemade crumpets dripping with honey in our Mother’s Day breakfast on page 4. Julia Busuttil Nishimura, another young mum, remembers her aunty making pasta and today her eldest little boy loves helping her do the same thing. This talented cookbook author reveals her secrets in Pasta Master on page 16. Take a look at the bottom of this page and you will see one of our latest sweet obsessions ­­— mini pancakes called poffertjes. Dusted with icing sugar, these Dutch treats are delicious and have an interesting history as you will discover on page 10. And finally, you will find the recipe for the chicken and leek skillet pie on our cover on page 14. Happy cooking!

IT’S EARLY MORNING on the second Sunday in May and the kids are in the kitchen. The homemade crumpets are coming out of the toaster ready for honey and lashings of butter, the freshly laid eggs are in their egg cups, a beautiful timber platter for brunch is on the bench and the kettle has just boiled. There is excitement in the air in lots of kitchens just like this one around Australia as families get ready to show the mums in their lives just how much they love them. Luckily, cooking is something these children — Saffron,10, and her eight-year-old brother Oliver — love to do. “Making me breakfast in bed is something they take pride in. Saffron will collect eggs from her hens in the orchard and there are always heartfelt (and secretly organised) handmade cards from both kids,” explains Natasha Morgan, who runs bespoke garden and produce workshops at Oak and Monkey Puzzle, her property at Spargo Creek near Daylesford in Victoria. This family’s Mother’s Day is all about good food and spending time together. “It’s a lovely informal day of three generations coming together. We always arrive at my mum’s with armfuls of just-picked garden blooms, homemade cards from the children and special little artworks they have also made — it’s just about spending time together,” she says.

SOFT-BOILED EGGS SOURDOUGH SOLDIERS

with

Serves 2 Prep: 2 minutes Cook: 10 minutes

4 free-range eggs, at room temperature 3 thick slices sourdough bread Salted butter

1. Fill a medium-sized saucepan with water and bring it to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and carefully lower the eggs into the water with a slotted spoon. This needs to be done gently as you don’t want to crack the eggs. 2. Set a timer for 5 minutes for perfectly jammy yolks. In the meantime, heat a heavy-based griddle pan over medium-high heat and toast the bread for 2 minutes on each side. Spread generously with butter. Cut into soldiers and divide between serving plates. 3. Place the eggs in egg cups on each serving plate. Using a butter knife, hit the side of your egg with a few quick whacks. This will cut through the shell and egg and you will be able to remove the top, ready to season and dip.

CRUMPETS HONEY BUTTER

with

Makes 10–12 Prep: 10 minutes (+1 hour resting) Cook: 20 minutes

14g (2 sachets) dried yeast 1 tsp caster sugar 350ml warm milk 350g plain flour ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda 1 tsp sea salt 200ml water 2 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp butter 250g butter, softened 60ml (¼ cup) honey

Chef's note

Crumpets are best cooked over lower heat for a longer period to ensure they're not too dark when cooked through.

TOP: Chef Inox rotary egg beater; Chasseur La Cuisson mixing jug in antique cream. ABOVE: Salisbury & Co Mona plate.

1. Combine the yeast, sugar and milk in a jug and whisk well to combine. Set aside in a warm place for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to activate. 2. Combine the flour, bicarb soda and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the wet yeast mixture and water. Whisk well and then set aside, covered, for an hour. 3. Heat half the olive oil in a heavy-based frying pan over medium-low heat. Grease four 8cm crumpet rings. Place the greased rings into the pan and fill each three-quarters full with batter. 4. Turn the heat down to low and cook for 6–8 minutes, or until the bubbles on the surface pop and stay open. Carefully turn the crumpets over and continue to cook for a further 1 minute. Repeat with remaining oil and batter. 5. For the honey butter, put the butter and honey in a large bowl and whisk using egg beaters for 5 minutes, or until the butter is light and airy. 6. Serve the crumpets hot with a big dollop of honey butter.

GRANOLA CINNAMON YOGHURT & FIGS

with

Serves 6 Prep: 10 hours 15 minutes (+ overnight setting) Cook: 20 minutes You will need a Davis & Waddell yoghurt maker for this recipe.

60ml (¼ cup) melted coconut oil 60ml (¼ cup) maple syrup 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup rolled oats ½ cup flaked coconut ½ cup whole almonds ½ cup hazelnuts ¼ cup pepitas ¼ cup dried cherries Zest of 1 orange Figs, halved, to serve CINNAMON YOGHURT 150g plain full-cream yoghurt with live cultures 1.2L full-cream milk 2 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tbsp maple syrup

kitchenwarehouse.com.au

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. 2. To make the yoghurt, whisk the yoghurt and milk together inside the small (1.6L) yoghurt maker container. 3. Place the container inside the yoghurt maker and select the C1 program. This setting will run for 10 hours before automatically turning off. 4. To make the granola, combine all of the ingredients except the figs in a large bowl and mix well. Spread the mixture evenly over a lined baking tray and bake for 20 minutes, rotating the tray at the halfway mark. Set the granola aside to cool and then store in an airtight container. 5. Once the 10-hour yoghurt program has finished, place the strainer inside the large (1.8L) container and decant the warm yoghurt mixture. Cover with the lid and transfer to the fridge to set overnight. 6. Tip the set yoghurt into a large bowl along with the cinnamon and maple syrup. Whisk to combine and adjust to taste. 7. To serve, divide yoghurt between serving bowls and top with a generous sprinkle of granola and the figs. Decorate with edible flowers if you like.

Chef's note

Begin making yoghurt in the morning the day before: it can be refrigerated as soon as the program finishes and will be ready the following morning.

TOMATO TARTS

Makes 4 Prep: 20 minutes (+ 1 hour 20 minutes chilling) Cook: 35 minutes

1 cup wholemeal flour 1 tsp sea salt 90g cold butter, cubed, plus 1 tbsp extra 1 tbsp iced water 2 brown onions, sliced ½ cup ricotta cheese 1 cup mixed heirloom tomatoes, cut into 3cm pieces if large ½ cup mixed fresh tender herbs Lemon juice and olive oil, for dressing

Chef's note

If you don’t have a food processor you can get the same result by rubbing the butter into the flour mixture with your fingers. A good quality, store-bought shortcrust pastry could be used in place of making your own.

1. Pulse the flour, salt and butter in a food processor until the mixture resembles very coarse breadcrumbs. Slowly add 1 tablespoon of iced water, then turn the mixture out onto your work surface and knead lightly. Shape into a disc, enclose in plastic wrap and put it in the fridge to chill for 1 hour. 2. Meanwhile, melt the extra butter in a large heavy-based frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring every couple of minutes, for 15 minutes, or until the onions are soft and dark brown in colour. Deglaze the pan with 2 tablespoons of water if needed. Season to taste and set aside. 3. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Divide the chilled dough into 4 even portions. Roll each portion into a 12cm round, about 3mm thick. Grease four 8cm fluted tart tins and line each with pastry. Prick the bases and return to the fridge to chill for another 20 minutes. 4. Line pastry cases with baking paper and fill with pastry weights, dried rice or beans. Blind bake for 12 minutes, then remove paper and weights. Top with ricotta, caramelised onion and tomato. Return the tarts to the oven and bake for a further 15 minutes or until the tomatoes are nicely roasted. 5. Put the herbs in a small bowl and dress with the lemon juice and olive oil. Pile high on each tart and serve immediately.

YOU’VE PROBABLY GULPED

down a dozen warm, sweet poffertjes without ever giving a thought to their history. This Dutch treat is universally adored: cloud-like mini pancakes, served with a sweet topping — a mouthful of fun. The story behind them, however, is more serious. Poffertjes date from the eighteenth century, when the French Revolution was in full swing and a wheat shortage forced Europeans to get creative. They turned to buckwheat, which was easy to grow, readily available and, when combined with yeast and milk, produced a light, fluffy batter that cooked up as a morsel just right for Holy Communion. Yes, this sublime snack has its origins in religious ceremony. Some say French monks made the mini pancakes as an alternative host for communion; others attest that we owe the treat to inventive friars at a Dutch abbey. It’s thought that Dutch merchants stumbled across the pancakes at a monastery and spread the recipe throughout the Netherlands. In a savvy move, they also produced the specialty iron pans that are needed to cook the coin-sized pancakes. Quickly embraced across Holland, they were first dubbed broedertjes (‘little brothers’) after the monks who made them, before earning the name poffertjes, or ‘little puffs’, from the way they quickly inflate in the hot pan. While they’re traditionally made with buckwheat flour, which has a nutty flavour, today wheat is a more common ingredient. As for how to enjoy them? There’s no end of decadent toppings, such as chocolate sauce or strawberries and whipped cream, but the classic butter and icing sugar combo really is divine.

1. Put three dessert spoons in the freezer to chill. 2. Combine all of the jam ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir well to coat. Set aside for 30 minutes to allow the sugar to draw out the natural blackberry juices. 3. Place the pan over medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Skim any scum off the surface and discard. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. 4. To test if the jam has reached its setting point, put a dollop on a frozen spoon and draw a line through the middle. If the line remains, the jam is ready; if not, return the jam to simmer

for a further 5 minutes and then repeat the setting test. Transfer the hot jam to sterilised jars and seal immediately. 5. To make the poffertjes, combine the warm milk, yeast and sugar in a jug and whisk well to combine. Set aside in a warm place for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to activate. 6. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Make a well in the middle and add the wet yeast mixture and egg. Whisk well until the batter is smooth, then set aside, covered, for 1 hour or until the mixture has doubled in size. Transfer the batter to a batter dispenser or a squeeze bottle. 7. Heat a poffertjes pan over medium heat. Once warm, brush lightly with melted butter. 8. Use the batter dispenser to fill each cavity with about 1 tablespoon of batter. Once you start to see bubbles and the surface is looking dry, it is time to turn them over. Use the tip of a long skewer between the edge of the pancake and the pan to swiftly flip the pancake over. 9. Cook for a further 1 minute until lightly brown, then remove from the pan. The best way to do this without burning your fingers is by using the skewer to spike each pancake, removing several at a time. 10. Repeat with the remaining batter. 11. Divide poffertjes between serving plates, dollop with extra butter and some of the jam and dust with icing sugar. Enjoy!

5 minutes until the leek has softened. Return the chicken and pancetta to the pan and deglaze with the wine. Allow to cook for 1 minute before adding the stock and cream. 4. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken the sauce. Remove from heat, stir through the chives and season with salt and pepper to taste.

MASTERCLASS

Cast

IRON Treat your cast iron cookware the right way and you will be handing it down to your grandchildren. These tough and durable pieces are the original kitchen heirlooms.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY CAST IRON COOKWARE? Okay, let’s get this question

over and done with, as lots of people worry about how to care for their pan or casserole. It’s actually very easy: the key thing to remember is not to leave it overnight soaking in the sink — it's not a disaster if you do, but not best practice. Ideally, wipe the pan immediately after cooking with a damp kitchen towel, or wash with warm water if needed, and once it is clean, dry it immediately before finishing with a light coat of oil. It is very important to cool a hot pan for a few minutes before washing, as enamelled cast iron cookware can crack if plunged into cold water straight off the heat.

HOW DO I COOK WITH CAST IRON COOKWARE? Slow and steady wins the

cast iron race so please heat and cool your cookware slowly. Cast iron retains heat, which is the key to how well it cooks: it’s a great choice for searing a piece of fillet steak to medium-rare in a skillet, or for braising a casserole that needs to spend hours slow cooking in a Dutch oven.

TIPS AND TRICKS? Never preheat your

cookware to extremely high heat, because it holds the temperature so well you may end up burning your food. Heat it to the desired temperature slowly. Never place your dish on the floor of your oven as it may overheat. Always dry well and store in a well-ventilated area.

WHAT’S THE BEST THING ABOUT IT?

There are many good things, but the fact it can move from the stovetop into the oven is hard to go past. It’s the secret of the classic French tarte Tatin — named for the sisters Tatin, but that’s another story — which is so easy to make once you have the right cast iron pan in your pot drawer. Simply caramelise quartered apples with butter and sugar on the stovetop, then cover them with a sheet of pastry and pop it into the oven until the pastry is golden brown. Remove from the oven and flip onto a serving plate. AND FINALLY, DID YOU KNOW THIS? You

should use cast iron cookware as often as you can: it simply gets better with age!

PASTA has been part of cookbook

author Julia Busuttil Nishimura’s life since she was a little girl, watching her aunt cooking in the kitchen. And today it’s still on the menu for this busy mother and her two boys, Haruki, five, and one-year-old Yukito. A stint spent living in Italy in her twenties cemented Julia’s love for Italian food. “Fresh pasta is an absolute joy to make,” she explains as she prepares for our shoot at her Melbourne home. “Nothing really can compare to the absolute satisfaction that comes from turning eggs and flour into the most incredible and special meal.” Here Julia shares with us the secrets of how she makes one of her favourite pasta dishes.

SORPRESINE

How to make

SORPRESINE PASTA See recipe on following pages for ingredients.

1. Tip the flour onto a wooden board. Add the sea salt and mix to combine. 2. Create a well in the flour, large enough for the eggs. Crack the eggs in the centre. 3. Whisk the eggs with a fork, slowly bringing flour into the eggs. 4. Begin to bring the remaining flour into the centre with your hands. 5. Use a pastry scraper to help incorporate the flour into the eggs. 6. Knead the dough for 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and rest for 30 minutes. 7. Cut the dough in quarters. 8. Working with one piece of dough at a time, begin to feed the dough through the pasta machine, starting at the widest setting. 9. After moving through two more settings, fold the pasta sheet onto itself so it is slightly narrower than the width of the machine. Do this three times, setting the machine back to the widest setting and roll back through the first settings again, folding and flattening the pasta dough before each roll. 10. Continue to roll the pasta dough though the settings until the sheet is around 1.5mm thick. 11. Cut the sheet into 2.5–3cm squares. Working with one square at a time, bring two opposite corners together and press to make a triangle. 12. Take the other two corners and fold them around the long side of the triangle and press so they stick together and form the sorpresine.

Repeat the rolling, cutting and shaping with the remaining dough pieces. 3. Bring a large saucepan of generously salted water to the boil. 4. Meanwhile, put the pancetta in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the pancetta until beginning to colour. There is no need to add any oil, as the pancetta will release its own fat to cook in. 5. Tip the sopresine into the boiling water and cook for approximately 2 minutes until just under al dente. After 1 minute of cooking, add the peas in with the pasta to blanch them. 6. Meanwhile, add the cream, butter and nutmeg to the pan with the pancetta and simmer for a few minutes until it begins to thicken. Drain the pasta and peas, reserving some of the pasta water, and add to the sauce. Stir to coat, adding 60­­–125ml of reserved pasta water, as needed, to create a luscious sauce. Cook for another minute or two until the pasta is al dente and the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper and serve topped with grated parmesan.

One POT wonder

COMFORT FOOD

If you’ve heard about

Instant Pot and wondered what all the hype is about,

here’s the lowdown: this isn’t just a pressure cooker, or a rice cooker, or a slow cooker. It’s all three — and then some. This smart kitchen gadget is like having a well-trained assistant by your side.

HOW IT WORKS

With multiple set-and-forget functions from sous vide to sautéing, Instant Pot allows you to get creative in the kitchen without getting stressed. Different models have a wide range of functions, but they’re all based on the same advanced electric pressure-cooker technology. Embedded in the base is a microprocessor, which connects to sensors that monitor and regulate the inner pot’s temperature and pressure. This allows for precise and safe cooking — the microprocessor is designed to cut power if it detects any dangerous conditions. Because Instant Pot uses pressure, which boils water past 100°C and traps steam under the lid, it slashes cooking times. But it’s not only about speedy results. The smart cooking programs automatically adjust the pot’s heat intensity, pressure and cooking duration, allowing you to slow cook one day, and whip up dinner in less than 10 minutes the next.

WHAT TO BUY

Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer includes healthy, oil-free air frying on its long list of functions, making it a super-versatile gadget. Use the one-button settings to pressure cook, sauté, steam, sous vide, slow cook and warm food, then switch lids to air fry, roast, bake, broil and dehydrate. This double functionality means you can use the wet and crisp functions separately, or combine them to cook a one-pot feast. Sunday roast has never been easier!

INSTANT POT TIPS ♥ When calculating how long it will take to cook your meal, bear in mind that it takes time for the pot to pressurise (five to 10 minutes) and then to safely release the pressure at the end of the cooking process (10 to 20 minutes). ♥ Use the natural release setting for meat. This allows the steam to escape slowly, keeping the food inside warm, so it’s ideal for resting meat. The quick-release valve is best for delicate food that you don’t want to overcook, like seafood. ♥ Avoid using Instant Pot underneath overhead cupboards: the steam can damage timber and paint. Place it under a rangehood or in a well-ventilated area. ♥ Instant Pot is great for meal prep. Use it to quickly hard-boil eggs, cook a batch of rice or quinoa, make stews or soups to freeze, or bake whole potatoes. ♥ Make sure there’s always at least half a cup of liquid in the pot to create the steam necessary for cooking.

but when Natalie Paull first made a butter cake for her mother it was a lightbulb moment ­­— she had found her calling. That little girl went on to work for culinary icons Stephanie Alexander and Maggie Beer, and today she is the woman behind the Melbourne bakery Beatrix. Natalie opened the tiny cake shop in 2011 and has since gained a cult following for the magical creations that emerge from her ovens. How do you decide between the hazelnut and raspberry chiffon layer cake with salted honeycomb and mascarpone and the two-bite peach jam tart? After reading a daily cake menu like that, it’s no surprise that people queue up on the footpath outside the shop, waiting for the doors to open. Key to Natalie’s success is her relentless commitment to sourcing only the best ingredients: St David Dairy butter, pure cream and buttermilk, Milawa freerange eggs, Laucke flour and Lindt chocolate are always at the top of the shopping list. The Beatrix team are also dedicated to buying seasonal fruit direct from farmers whenever they can — and for our sponge roll recipe on the following pages, this passionate baker suggests looking even closer to home. “Try to find backyard lemons for this recipe … it takes it to next-level lemon loveliness,” she says. It’s time to slow down and discover the simpler things in life — and one of those pleasures is the joy of making a cake for those you love. Just ask Natalie, who gets to eat cake every single day — sometimes even for breakfast! Beatrix is at 688 Queensberry Street, North Melbourne, Victoria.

Sponge rolls are fluffy,

creamy, dreamy and tangy all at once and they are the cakes of my dreams. They hold the lemon curd and cream, but always welcome some fresh raspberries or passionfruit strewn on top of the cream. Don’t fear sponges: make this part of your baking repertoire for life! Do adopt the scales as the ‘weigh’ to better baking — even your eggs and liquids will be more accurately measured and bring sweet kitchen success to all you do. I love this one-pot method of making lemon curd. The sugar protects the egg yolks from overcooking to scrambled egg.” – Natalie Paull

LEMON SPONGE ROLL Serves 6–8 Prep: 1 hour 25 minutes Cook: 20 minutes

2 large lemons, finely grated zest and juice 260g caster sugar plus 50g extra, for rolling 5 eggs, separated, plus 2 extra yolks for the curd 25g butter, softened 25g vegetable oil 25g milk 130g self-raising flour 2g (¼ teaspoon) fine sea salt 2g (¼ teaspoon) cream of tartar 250g mascarpone 200ml thickened cream

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly spray a 40cm x 30cm x 2cm deep tin with baking spray and line the base and sides with baking paper. 2. To make the lemon curd, put the finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon in a small non-reactive saucepan with 60g of the caster sugar, 2 egg yolks and the butter. Add a tiny pinch of salt flakes. Heat, whisking constantly, over medium-high heat until the curd just reaches a bubbling boil. Remove the pan from the heat, transfer the curd to a small bowl or container and gently press a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface. Chill until ready to use. 3. To prepare the sponge batter, put the remaining lemon zest and juice in a small bowl with the oil and milk.

with ONE-POT LEMON CURD and MASCARPONE Set aside. Weigh the flour and salt together and set aside. 4. Put the egg whites and cream of tartar into a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat on high speed for 5 minutes until they change from foamy yellow to white stiff peaks. Gradually add the remaining caster sugar, a tablespoon at a time, until you have a super-stiff, glossy meringue. Add the remaining egg yolks and beat on medium speed until just combined. 5. Sift half the flour mixture over the meringue and use a balloon whisk to fold it in, for maximum air retention. Sift the remaining flour over and fold it in. Fold in the lemony milk mixture and combine gently, ensuring the batter is beautifully homogenised. 6. Scrape the mixture into the prepared tin and even out the top of the batter with an offset spatula. Bake for 12–15 minutes until pale golden and springy when touched. 7. Meanwhile, prepare a large tray (big enough to hold the sponge) with a light coating of baking spray and line it with a 60cm long sheet of baking paper. When the sponge is cooked, scatter extra caster sugar on top of the sponge and use oven mitts to hold the hot tin as you bravely flip the sponge out onto the tray. 8. Gently peel the baking paper off the back of the sponge and set aside to cool for 5 minutes before rolling. This will prevent the sponge from getting too hot and sweaty. 9. Position the sponge with the shortest edge towards you and with lots of baking

paper overhang closest to you. This overhang will roll up inside the warm sponge and stop it sticking. Swiftly roll the cake up with the paper inside the roll. Don’t roll too tightly and squish the sponge into submission, or the sponge will be hot and compressed and turn from fluffy to flabby and dense. 10. Set aside at room temperature to cool for 30 minutes, so the cream doesn’t melt as you fill the roll. While it cools, whisk the mascarpone and cream together to firm, yet billowy peaks and keep it cool. If mascarpone gets warm, it becomes grainy and clumpy. 11. Unfurl the cooled roll: it will be nice and flexible. Trim a tiny strip of crust off each side and set aside for your snacks! Thinly spread the lemon curd on the sponge and then the mascarpone cream. Leave a 2cm strip mostly free of filling at the end furthest from you. This is the seal for the roll so it needs to be a little less creamy to stick well. 12. Begin to roll and tuck, with your fingers, gently and tightly. After you have a nice tight start, continue rolling the sponge, using the baking paper to help roll (but don’t roll it inside the sponge this time). Employ a little lifting action with your rolling to get a nice shape. Finish with the seal side down, dust with icing sugar and eat delightfully large slices. Best eaten on the day, but leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 day. Find Nat’s best recipes in her book Beatrix Bakes (Hardie Grant Publishing, $45).

Dreaming of a trip to Switzerland? International travel is off the menu these days for most of us, but why not bring some Swiss flavours into your home entertaining and host a raclette dinner party — it's so easy. Start by buying the cheese. Raclette, a semihard cow’s cheese with a mild flavour, is your first choice but others, such as cheddar or gouda, can be used. Next step is to prepare the vegetables and meats that you will dip into the melted cheese. Place the grill in the centre of the table and your guests can start cooking. Simple and stylish, this is a dinner everyone will remember.
