Case in point, I’ve found myself in a conversation with Little Indi co-owner Frank Meura on the finer points of biodegradation. I think. I’m not 100% on what he’s on about, but I am k appreciating the passion and earnestness for the subject. That, and the excellent cup of hand-pumped espresso (in the form of a macchiato) I’m sipping away at. I’m nursing it in its little bowl like its a precious baby.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/11/cafe-review-little-indi-alexandria/feed/ 3 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/09/piss-easy-hummus/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/09/piss-easy-hummus/#comments Thu, 01 Sep 2011 21:17:42 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=1958 ]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/09/piss-easy-hummus/feed/ 2 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/02/tortilla-de-patatas/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/02/tortilla-de-patatas/#comments Thu, 17 Feb 2011 19:17:39 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=852 It has always amazed me how eager the Sydney food scene is to absorb reinterpret the so-called ‘traditional’ and ‘peasant’ foods of other nations into overpriced, ‘exotic’ wank. Besides the prohibitive prices of foods like tapas, Brazilian bbq and Cuban food, these reincarnations of cuisines which claim to be ‘inspired’ or ‘influenced’ by various countries almost always miss the point of the cuisine they claim to ‘draw inspiration’ from.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/02/tortilla-de-patatas/feed/ 10 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/salat-hatzilim/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/salat-hatzilim/#comments Thu, 27 Jan 2011 21:24:51 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=608 Do you have a dish that’s such a staple in your repertoire that you assume you’ve already cooked it for everyone you know? One that’s renowned all over town, prepared for every special occasion. Or used to be, back in the day. ‘You’ve tried mum’s eggplant dip, haven’t you?’ my boyfriend has been asking me for the past 5 years. No. I. HAVEN’T. Ever! Until now.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/salat-hatzilim/feed/ 7 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/cheats-dulce-de-leche/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/cheats-dulce-de-leche/#comments Thu, 06 Jan 2011 19:53:09 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=528 It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that I have a very sweet tooth. So imagine my delight at every hostel I stayed at in Argentina and Uruguay when each breakfast come complete with dulce de leche, the classic spreadable caramel that is liberally dolloped on desserts, cakes and even toast. No matter how dodgy the coffee, how tepid the ‘orange fruit drink’ or how stale the bread, there was always dulce de leche to smother it and more than compensate. My favourite way to eat it was as ‘Flan con dulce’, basically a crème caramel slathered in the stuff. Heaven.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2011/01/cheats-dulce-de-leche/feed/ 13
