Sage, Oregano & Thyme Mussels in Garlic Oil

February 5, 2018 by Catherine Milford No Comments
This is super-simple, but it’s a fantastic dish to pass around when you’ve got a group, or just want something to have with a drink. If you grow your own herbs, don’t stick to the recipe – use your own...

Garlic Butter Scallops with Crispy Bacon Bits

January 2, 2018 by Catherine Milford No Comments

Kung Sang Waa

September 16, 2017 by Catherine Milford No Comments
This is one of those dishes that’s great to have up your sleeve if you’ve got people coming around. It’s quick to make, and once you tell people what it’s called, they will be super-impressed with your Thai cooking skills!...

Oyster shooters

August 2, 2017 by Catherine Milford No Comments

FOOD WRITER

Hi, my name is Catherine Milford, and I live in Auckland, New Zealand. I’ve been a journalist for over 20 years both here and in England, and I’ve written on every topic you can think of, but EatsCooksReads focuses on my favourite: food. This blog is full of recipes I’ve written, products I’ve discovered, food books I love, restaurants I’ve reviewed and a lot besides! If you love New Zealand food, I hope you love my site.
