You didn't say what you best known for!.....

Ummm.... I don't know what I'd say, have to think more. I usually just offer to make things like a salad or dessert and they happily accept. I tend to follow recipes so I don't have any mishaps!

My pho - I swear it tastes just like the stuff I used to buy from the noodle carts in Vietnam. https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...332#post608332
Lasagne - my not very secret ingredient is rasberry jam
Slow cooked lamb shanks with rosmary and garlis (it's pretty hard to mess that up lol)

It used to be chicken wings marinated with my secret family recipe (ie a jar of masterfoods marinade

) and caramel slice. The wings were famous with a groupd of friends I no longer see, and the caramel slice is still popular with family but it's now my pavlova. Even the one I made a total mess of at christmas was apparently amazing.

As far as the recipe for my pav, I use the Donna Hay recipe on the masterchef website. I double everything to make a bigger one but I only increase the cooking time by an extra 20 min.

Homemade marshmallow

Homemade marshmallow

Recipe please. My one attempt (about 10 years ago lol) was a massive, massive fail. Which sucks because I love home made marshmallow. Especially when it's rolled in coconut.
