    Butter

    As butter is the main flavour for this recipe, we would recommend choosing a good quality butter. Our favourite is Kerrygold butter. We love the quality of their butter and usually have a few sticks in our fridge at all times. Whenever we see it on special we always stock up. 

    Another great butter choice is any lovely local butter you can find. We always love to try and support local farmers and there are some great butters being done in Victoria.We love to explore the different artisan butters and these are some we have found. 

    • Lardass 
    • St David’s dairy

      This meal was simple but oh so delicious. I needed to start using the sage from my herb garden and this recipe really hit the mark.
      I served mine on slendier black bean pasta and steamed broc.
      I halved the recipe and intended to only make 2 serves, but actually got 3 big meals out of it.
