Aphrodite’s Bucatini

[columns_row width=”half”] [column][/column] [column]Bucatini Amatriciana is an Italian classic! Historically, the pope has chosen his best chefs from the Amatrice region to cook it for him – so you’re in for a treat! The sauce is made with sweet ripe tomatoes and a hint of chilli to make it sumptuous. What could be more Italian than a hint of olive and pancetta to liven up the party? Enjoy!

Thor’s Thunder Chicken with Bok Choy

[columns_row width=”half”] [column][/column] [column]We inherited this tasty little number from an Australian friend of ours.

Food can be an amazing leveller. This zingy little number is inspired by a street food stall in Bangkok, where people from all walks of life queue down the street to get their dinner.
