Is there anything
better than a hearty
home-cooked meal?
When I was growing up,
my
mum had a knack of making the
most amazing meals using, of
all things, mince. Recipes from
her repertoire that we feasted on
regularly owed much to her Greek
heritage, with dishes such as juicy meatballs and divine
stuffed capsicums — my mouth waters just thinking of them.
And while mince was once considered
standard fare,
this month’s 24-page pullout cookbook proves you don’t
have to spend a lot to eat well. From ever-popular cottage
pies and burgers to more exotic lamb koftas and lemongrass
stuffed with pork mince, you’ll be surprised how easy,
delicious and inexpensive they are. And there’s nothing
better to top off a good meal than a great dessert - how light
and luscious does Karen Martini’s sponge filled with jam and
cream look on the cover? 1 can’t wait to give it a go!
Our other free book this issue
features an activity that
everyone’s doing - from Julia Roberts and David Arquette
to, well, me (but not as much as I used to). I’m talking
about knitting, of course. There are classic jumpers, beanies,
feminine shrugs and even edgy hand-knitted jewellery. A
few are designed to ensure you finish extra fast, while others
take a little longer but certainly reward your patience.
And that’s not all
- we have
40 pages of essential gardening
advice, tips for hanging your
pictures so they look their best,
and much more. Hope you enjoy!
