Carbonara - @nats_what_i_reckon has a really great video which shows you how to cook this (avoid if you don’t like swearing) : 🍝Pasta 🥓Pancetta/bacon substitute 🥚Egg yolks 3, whole egg 1 🧂Black pepper 🧄Garlic 🧀Parmesan : Cook the bacon and garlic until cooked. Mix the egg yolks, Parmesan and black pepper together. Cook the pasta and add it and a ladle of pasta water to the bacon and garlic. Let it cook for a few minutes then slowly add the egg mixture and stir together. I had never made carbonara before it was delicious but very rich. : Green beans with garlic and flaked almonds were delicious : Green beans Garlic Chilli Flaked almonds Extra virgin olive oil : In a dry pan cook flaked almonds until golden brown and remove. You have to be careful roasting nuts they can burn very quickly. The add extra virgin olive oil and sauté the beans with the garlic and chill until cooked and serve with the almonds. : Brussels sprouts Coat with extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice and garlic and roast in 180*C oven until crispy. : #distancedinner #vegetables #beans #brusselsprouts #tryfor5 #dinner #dinnerparty #friends #isolationdinner #roasted #recipes #nutrition #vitamins #minerals #micronutrients #health #healthydiet #food #recipes #cooking #cookingathome #freshproduce (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_I_KmhpUbC/?igshid=fvqpkzw3pmrt

Last night was @cobramestate #DistanceDinner to support @foodbankaus and Australians that are currently experiencing food insecurity. : On any normal day in Australia 5% of our population experiences food insecurity if you are unemployed or have a low income or are on the pension this number increases significantly to 23% and 20% respectively. : Food security is defined as "access by all people at all times to enough food for an active, healthy life" (Radimer, 2002) : Food Insecurity has three main components 1️⃣Food access: the ability to obtain and eat a nutritious diet 2️⃣Food availability: the supply of food in the community. 3️⃣Food use: having basic nutrition knowledge to appropriately prepare and cook food. : There are three levels 1️⃣Secure 2️⃣Insecure without hunger 3️⃣Insecure with extreme hunger : The current COVID-19 pandemic has left thousands of people unemployed with very long waits for government assistance which will increase food insecurity in our community. It has also seen the supermarket shelves stripped bare from panic buying. This majorly disadvantages people who shop on a budget or who can only afford to purchase the more affordable products. : If you have food in your cupboard and know where you next meal is coming from stop and appreciate that for a minute because there are many people who are not that privileged. I will be donating to @ what dinner and drinks out at a restaurant would normally cost me and I encourage you to do the same. #cobramestate #foodsecurity #food #access #health #nutrition #dinner #carbonara #vegetables #tryfor5 #eattherainbow #realfood #wholegood #nutritionist #diet #dinner #isolationdinner #dinnerparty #dinnerathome #dinnerwithfriends #stayconnected (at Elwood, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_I-pJnpPBz/?igshid=6175bem1wq0i
