Banana bread is a big deal in Sydney. Every cafe sells it, usually toasted and with butter. It forms an integral part of the Sydney cafe scene (and throughout Australia). I like the addition of spelt flour for a more dense, earthier flavour and I sweeten only a little with honey, just enough so that the spelt and banana flavours shine through.

Many years ago, I was a chef. I worked in restaurants, pubs and on an outback farm and travelled extensively through SE Asia. As time has gone on, my cookery style has developed to appreciate the simple and traditional over the fancy and complex. I believe in quality ingredients cooked in the simplest manner with an emphasis on local ingredients. I cook to feed myself and I explore food through both necessity and through travel.
