Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Almond cake

    • debkellie on May 29, 2015

      I've looked at the picture of this one for years & finally succumbed to making it.. next time I'll put the flaked almonds on the sides before it goes into the oven for the topping bake-off - they just fell off... this time I doused each layer with a rum/sugar syrup blend before the redcurrant jelly, otherwise I think it would be very dry.

      This recipe is definitely one of those that improves with age.. much better on Day 3 than it was on Day 1!

  • Mamma's cake

    • ciel on October 04, 2011

      This is our son's favourite birthday cake!

  • Cassata

    • ciel on October 04, 2011

      Delicious, especially the chocolate layer.

  • Tuna and mushroom (Tonno e funghi)

    • aargle on January 04, 2019

      I have been making this on and off for over thirty years. Made it again recently after a long hiatus and my boys loved it and now request it regularly.

  • Anise biscuits

    • aargle on January 04, 2019

      Love the biscuits must make them again.

  • Bagna cauda

    • Foodycat on July 09, 2014

      Not an authentic bagna cauda but one of the most delicious dips for vegetables I have ever had.

  • Spinach and coppa

    • Foodycat on May 26, 2021

      I think my mum and I ate this twice a month for about 10 years and I still love it. This is definitely the messiest page in this book - lots of splashes and splatters.

  • Pizzaiola

    • Ganga108 on October 06, 2022

      The Australian Women's Weekly books were pretty much instrumental in getting Italian recipes into the Australian kitchens. We loved several of the very simple pasta sauces from their books for quick but tasty evening meals. This one is so simple yet so good, it could be in Ottolenghi's Shelf Life :). Tonight, we used fresh marjoram and parsley from the garden. We didn't sieve the tinned (diced) tomatoes but left them chunky, and used lots of garlic. Yum! Served it in 1980's style :)

  • Summer sauce

    • Ganga108 on January 10, 2022

      What could be better in Summer? A tomato, onion, green olive and herb salsa over hot pasta. So good!

  • Cauliflower Neapolitan

    • Ganga108 on November 01, 2022

      I was prepared to not really enjoy this dish, but it intrigued me. It is somewhat old fashioned, but a nice antipasto dish. It mixes quickly cooked cauliflower with tart/sharp ingredients and a lemon dressing. We loved it, a great precursor to a large bowl of pasta with a classic tomato sauce.

  • Minestrone

    • Ganga108 on October 31, 2021

      It has been a very cold Spring here this year, so it has been full of soups. I had been cooking from To Asia with Love all through Winter and then felt that I missed out on the usual soups and bakes that normally comprise our Winter fare. So it has been good to be able to address that during Spring. The AWW recipes always hit the mark. This soup bubbled away while I pottered in the kitchen, and now there is enough to feed an army for the rest of the week. It is a great "clean out the fridge at the end of the week" dish, and veg can be substituted with whatever is available in that bottom drawer of the refrigerator.
