Crème Caramel – The Food I Love
Time for another classic we think.. Is there nothing better than sinking your spoon into a perfect crème caramel? And as Neil explains below, sometimes it’s the simplest things that are the hardest to master. Luckily, here at Rockpool Bar & Grill Sydney, when the crème caramels don’t turn out as planned they get transformed into [...]

Roast Duck, Asparagus and Rice Noodle Soup
So, I don’t know what the weather has been like in your part of the world in the past week, but here in Sydney it has been horrendous. Rain, cold, rain, wind, and more rain. Then it rains some more.. So, how’s about a warming soup for the weekend? Soup and duck – they were meant [...]
Squid Ink Paella
This has to be one of my favourite shots from The Food I Love. Why? I guess it allows me to imagine that I’ve just enjoyed a great meal with friends - a plate of deliciously rich paella with super garlicky aioli, washed down with a nice glass or two of red.. Isn’t that the true test of a [...]

Beef, Black Beans and Rice Noodles with Oyster Sauce
This dish is classic Neil – it’s been on and off his menus ever since Wockpool Potts Point was rocking the Sydney dining scene. And for good reason… I love fresh rice noodles – they have the most amazing silky texture and really lend themselves to stir-frys and soups. We would always add a couple of [...]

Steamed Snapper Fillets with Moroccan Flavours
We’ve been using Chermoula – a Moroccan spice paste – here at Rockpool for as long as the restaurant has been open. It’s so versatile, any left over from the recipe below can be used with just about anything – chicken, beef, vegetables… You’re only limited by your imagination. Steamed Snapper Fillets with Moroccan Flavours [...]

Comeback King
After reading Jenius’s blog about ‘delicious food comebacks’, we were inspired to blog this recipe from Neil’s book “Balance & Harmony” – Prawn Toast! I’ve had plenty of bad, bad prawn toasts in my time… enough to make me think twice about ever going there again. However, after trying this version whilst doing the recipe testing [...]
Pineapple and Ginger Puddings
We really can’t think of any better way to finish a meal in winter than with a pudding… Pineapple and Ginger Puddings Serves 6 I love crystallised ginger and it is worth getting a good-quality brand for these puddings. If you don’t like munching on it all by itself, then it’s not good enough for this [...]
Mac & Cheese
This dish is a bit of a heart-stopper, but definitely worth it every once in a while. Any time I go to Rockpool Bar & Grill (which is all too infrequent) I have to order this as a side – so rich and delicious - just looking at the photo is making me hungry! Neil’s variation with mushrooms [...]
Nothing Beats a Classic…
This used to be our go-to staff dinner up at XO Surry Hills – when we were short of time (or inspiration) and had to get something together quickly, this was it. Never having a shortage of cooked rice in the coolroom (the advantage of being an Asian restaurant), the boys had to get creative with [...]
