Welcome to the August edition of the Tangleby Recipe, Garden and Kids' Club.
We have had a few nice days here at Tangleby which has inspired us to start getting the garden ready for the busy season ahead.
This is our first year opening up the gardens and providing customised menus for groups.
In this months' recipes I have two brilliant filo pastry recipes. This will save you having any waste. The chicken, leek and mushroom filo's freeze very well and are great for a quick midweek meal.
I have used cabbage in three recipes so you can get through a whole cabbage without any waste. The Thai red curry dumpling soup, chicken and cabbage stir fry and the crispy bacon coleslaw.
The fluffy brown sugar banana pancakes will make you a very popular mum, nana or caregiver. These are a great treat for a weekend breakfast.
There are a few spring bulbs popping through which I have posted in the garden section. It is always a nice feeling to be getting closer and closer to spring.
Hopefully, you all saw on Facebook that you will be receiving an invitation to the Tangleby Garden Party on Saturday 25th October. This is to launch our new book, 'Tangleby Beautiful Baking'. We are also celebrating our new partnership with Dancing Water Winery in Waipara. They are an award-winning boutique winery, and I will be pairing their wide range of wines with the canapes served at the garden party. You are most welcome to bring a partner or friend along.
Happy cooking, gardening, crafting and being the best person, you can be!
