New Zealand Recipes
Traditionally, New Zealand cuisine combined
the traditional cuisine of the indigenous Maori people, and,
British recipes, introduced by settlers from
the United Kingdom (although of course modified to use locally available
ingredients). Although these two traditions remain the mainstays of
New Zealand cuisine today, as travel has become
more available in recent years, more cosmopolitan influences are starting
to appear in New Zealand cuisine - these include
influences from Europe and Asia,
such as
French,
Italan and
Chinese
inspired recipes.
Some popular dishes in New Zealand include:
- Colonial goose - A leg of lamb, specially prepared to resemble goose (which
was much desired but unavailable in early colonial New Zealand).
The bone is carefully removed and replaced with dried apricots and honey. The meat is
then marinated in red wine, and finally roasted.
- Fish and chips - Deep-fried fish in batter or breadcrumbs, and fried potatoes.
- Meat pies
- Roast lamb
Some popular desserts in New Zealand include:
- ANZAC biscuits - Both New Zealand and Australia
claim to have invented this dish for ANZAC troops sent to fight in the Gallipoli campaign in World War I.
ANZAC biscuits are biscuits made from rolled oats, coconut and syrup, a recipe specifically chosen because it would preserve well
during the long sea voyage to Europe
- Hokey pokey ice cream - Vanilla ice cream containing small lumps of toffee.
- Lamingtons - Cubes of sponge cake, covered with chocolate icing and dessicated coconut. The cubes are cut in half, and a layer of strawberry jelly (jam) or cream is spread between the two halves.
- Pavlova - As with ANZAC biscuits, original authorship of this dessert is a point of friendly dispute with Australia. Pavlova is a maringue with a crispy exterior, but a fluffy, light, interior.

Combined with stunning food photography and beautiful on-location shots from around the country, this is the perfect gift for every lover of New Zealand. Eat Up New Zealand honors the past with updated Kiwi classics like roast lamb, pies, flounder, corned beef, pikelets, cheese scones, feijoa and tamarillo desserts, preserves, and much more. Al's approach is to start with great seasonal produce, cook it simply and add a flavor punch, texture and garnish to take it to another level. It's clever, simple, and yet refined food that is inherently Kiwi. Al believes there's no need for gimmicks as long as you respect the huge flavor that naturally occurs in produce. These are accessible, generous recipes that everyone will love, for both everyday cooking and for entertaining. Includes dual measures. |

One flaky family. One ex-boyfriend who won't go away. And one handsome stranger who probably will ... For fans of Doc Martin and and Monica McInerney, a warm, witty novel, brimming with the trademark romance, friendship and eccentricity that Danielle Hawkins's readers love. On the outskirts of a small seaside town, Lia and her friend Anna work serious hours running their restored cafe. The summer season is upon them, they have Anna's wedding to plan and Lia's ex-boyfriend seems not to understand it's over. When a gorgeous stranger taps on Lia's window near midnight and turns out not to be a serial killer, she feels it's a promising sign. But no one comes without a past, and his arrives in the form of a four-year-old son. Just as Lia decides to give things a try, problems from her own past rear up.
The Pretty Delicious Cafe reminds us of the joy -- and hazards -- to be found in family, friends and good food -- and that being a little bit weird isn't necessarily a bad thing. PRAISE FOR DANIELLE HAWKINS

NEW TITLE INFORMATION A Lighthouse Keeper’s Cookbook Stories and Recipes from New Zealand Lighthouses by Paul Trevethick 8”x10”, soft cover, full colour, 154pp, 55,000 words, 52 photos (of station life), 67 recipes. ISBN-10: 1545046395 ISBN-13: 978-1545046395 ©Paul Trevethick 2017 Available from Amazon.com, UK and Europe Amazon. PAULUS PUBLISHING 8 Banks Lane, Waikino, RD2 Waihi, 3682, New Zealand. Ph 0064-021-028-10045 Email lh.keeper@hotmail.co.nz Paul was a relieving lighthouse keeper in the 1980s. He went to stations all over New Zealand taking over from the permanent keepers when they took annual or sick leave. In this book he describes the job, workings of the light, shipwrecks, search and rescue, weather, communications, anecdotes. For each of the 10 lighthouses in the book, from the Hauraki Gulf to Fiordland, he tells of the local food available and his own recipes for cooking that food. The book also covers a brief history of lighthouses worldwide and in New Zealand, automation and demanning, Maori history and legend, and an epilogue about returning to Puysegur Point, Fiordland, in 2015 with Neil Oliver for the Coast NZ television series. Being qualified as a chef (10 years at Fisherman’s Table, Paekakariki) and as a meteorologist (Flight Briefing Officer, Paraparaumu Airport), he writes with knowledge. Excerpt from the Puysegur Point chapter. “It isn't the gusts which make you fall over in a strong wind. It's the lulls. Walking about in hurricane-force winds is like being on a tightrope. Just as you sort out the correct body angle to lean into the wind, it drops 30 knots and you end up on the deck. Puysegur Point is wild. Wild weather, wild seas, wild bush, wild animals and wild men. Located on the south-western tip of the South Island, in Fiordland National Park, it has been a lighthouse station since 1879. Keepers loved and hated Puysegur Point. Most times when I was there the wind was at least gale force (on average over 34 knots). On days when it was relatively calm sandflies would swarm. It was essential to wear a hat to stop the things from crawling through your hair to your scalp. The scenery, though, was spectacular. At sea, long lines of 20-foot swells crashed up against reefs and very rugged coastline. Inland there was original native bush. In summer the flowering rata provided a magnificent splash of red against the many shades of green. Gold to pan, crayfish and whitebait to catch and deer to shoot made the weather somewhat bearable. I loved the place.” |
