Ingredient: spring onions Recipes
Coleslaw
Coleslaw that stays crunchy instead of going watery in an hour, with a proper creamy dressing. Serves 8 in 20 minutes, and it holds up on a buffet.
Potato Salad
Potato salad is on every New Zealand Christmas table and beside every barbecue from Labour Weekend to Easter, and most of it is disappointing in the same way: the potatoes taste of nothing and the dressing sits on the outside.
Fried Rice
Fried rice is a fifteen-minute dish that exists to use up leftovers, and there is exactly one non-negotiable rule. Get it right and you have separate, slightly chewy, well-coated grains.
Nachos
Nachos fail in a very specific way: the top layer is perfect, the bottom is a pale soggy raft of chips with nothing on them, and the middle is somewhere between. That’s a construction problem, not a recipe problem. Serves 4 as a main, 6 as a shared plate. Thirty minutes.
Delicious Chicken Rolls
A great alternative to asparagus rolls for fussy eaters, and a great way to use up leftover cooked chicken. Easy to assemble and guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser!
Mini Stuffed Potatoes
These are a great appetiser or snack for parties, as they can be made in a big batch, and they taste amazing.
