I recently attended a Cooking Circle event, specialising in Bush Tucker. Normally these events are hosted in someones home and we cook one of the hosts recipes. This event was a bit different. First it was a large crowd of around 20 people and it was hosted at Foodish, the cooking school associated with the Belconnen markets. We made a series of dishes highlighting Australian native ingredients.

HomeTaste Profile – Chef Udaya at Claypot Chef

My study of the menu also revealed a plethora dishes I have never tried before so I arrived with a fair degree of excitement.
