Jamie Oliver’s Proper Scotch eggs
Scotch eggs, may not be your go to Easter dish… but why not? They’ve been a staple in Kiwi kitchens for generations and since we have a bit more time off work, we can invest the time they deserve. Cooked eggs, swaddled in sausage meat, breaded and fried (sorry doc!).

Muffin pan caramilk hot cross puddings
Because one hot cross bun themed recipe just isn’t enough. Besides, when we saw that it used Caramilk we were sold. These super easy muffin hot cross buns use up leftover (is there such a thing?) hot cross buns, filling them with custard and Caramilk and popping them in the oven. Genius!
