I reckon we are the luckiest country in the world when it comes to Christmas! Warm, long days. Everyone on holidays. Any excuse for get-togethers with friends and family. Yes, Christmas is a Christian celebration but we live mainly in a country where there is acceptance and understanding of our diverse cultural backgrounds so we all get into the spirit. The other gorgeous thing about Christmas in Australia is food is plentiful and reasonable. How I love being in the food industry at this time of year. There is one downside - Christmas week is the busiest time for us all: our buyers are in the markets by 1am and David never got to be Santa’s helper putting bikes together or filling Christmas stockings. He’d just make it to dinner…

HOW TO… Using kitchen shears, snip up one side of the turkey’s tail and all the way along the backbone. Repeat with the other side and remove the backbone. At the neck end, snip the breast bone. Flip turkey so it’s skin-side up. Place both hands where the two breasts meet in the middle, then firmly push down until you hear a crack, and turkey is flat. Using a large sharp knife, make several slits in the turkey’s thighs. Use your fingers to separate the turkey skin from the breast meat only. Tuck the wings under the body. Place spoonfuls of butter under the skin of the breast meat only, then generously season the whole turkey. BUTTERFLIED TURKEY WITH MAPLE AND THYME GLAZE (PAGE 33) PREPARATION: 30 minutes COOKING: 1…

IN FLOWER NOW Chinese lantern Nodding bell-shaped flowers, lit up by golden stamens, have earned this plant the perfect name – Chinese lantern (Abutilon × hybridum). An evergreen shrub, with large maple-like leaves, it produces masses of blooms from spring through to autumn, in shades of red, orange, yellow, white, cerise and pale pink. Plants flower best when they have plenty of sun and benefit from pruning a couple of times a year to avoid them becoming straggly. There are also dwarf forms available that stay much more compact and are great for growing in pots. PREPARE FOR THE heat Now spring has morphed into summer, it’s a good time to make sure your garden is set up to cope with the hot months ahead. GET WET Most garden soils…

1 GREEN UP the lawn for the summer entertaining season, by applying a hose-on lawn food in early December. They’re quick and easy to use and you’ll see results in just a week or so. 2 PLANT A PASSIONFRUIT vine in a sunny spot, making sure it has a sturdy structure to climb on - metal mesh attached to a fence works fine. ‘Panama Red’ and 'Panama Gold’ do well in tropical areas, while the grafted form ‘Nellie Kelly’ is a good choice for temperate areas. 3 PLANT UP a few Christmas-themed flower containers - try a mix of red and white petunias or verbenas, or else go native with a NSW Christmas bush in a pot by the front door. 4 ADD A SIMPLE water feature to your summer…

Looking for a sweet summer treat? Now is the bumper time for lychees Australia has the longest lychee season in the world, with growers from tropical North Queensland to Northern NSW ensuring we have access to delicious juicy fruit from late October to late March. But right now is the lychee sweet spot! And growers have been working very hard to develop varieties with larger fruit and smaller seeds that are easier to peel but just as delicious. It’s time to indulge. Buy a few handfuls, choosing fruit with bright pink skins. Store in an airtight container in the fridge as dehydration turns the skins brown. Eat them chilled and fresh when the skins are still soft and easy to peel and the juicy translucent flesh is a mouthful of…
