'Ceviche' doesn't need to be intimidating. First up, it's pronounced "chur vee chay" and it can take literally 5 minutes to throw together. Imagine it sort of like a guacamole, in that you scoop it up and eat it off a cracker or fried tortilla, except it's made out of cubed white fish with a little bit of chopped onion, coriander, chilli and lime juice. SO GOOD. And look, its origins are not Aussie, but shall we make it Aussie?

Panzanella Salad - also known as 'Bruschetta Salad' or Bread Salad. This is a great way of using up leftover bread that is great for the environment but also FREAKING YUMMY because a). Bread is freakin yummy anyway - duh - and b). Bread takes on all these interesting textures and flavour characteristics based on what it's been pressing up against in that salad bowl. Usually tomatoes, onion and basil and then a wild drizzle of balsamic vinegar, but hey, listen for more.

If there's a party or birthday, how do you supply that feeling of Celebration - without a cake?
I know that when someone *I* love is celebrating their birthday, I really want them to understand that they're loved and the cake is SO much a part of that. So what do you do when you also have to consider everyone's serious allergies - and can't even make a cake?
I buy a whole watermelon and then sculpt it into an impressive shape, then top it with - - a sort of porcupine of fruit kebabs. Have a listen for more.

Making pasta from scratch is deeply soothing and wonderful - but sadly, us 5 Minute Food Fixers are too busy to do that. What we CAN do when trying to give ourselves some self-care, is make a Garlic Prawn Linguine!! It's really uncomplicated. You basically need access to prawn meat (hot tip: the supermarket has affordable prawn meat in the deli section). You need your fave pasta. Some garlic, some oil, some salt and that's basically it.

Simon and I share a love of food and I find it particularly enjoyable when he gets genuinely excited about a recipe, which, to be honest, is most of the time! (Except, I think, that time I talked about hot dogs.) Anyway, today I think he sensed that I was out of juice. My mojo was in a slump. And I was skeptical about this whole "Pyrmont Peppers" thing - - until he talked me around. You can hear me change my mind in real time! Anyway, all beside the point. The point is: this way to eat capsicum is a classic and it uses all the ingredients that are in season right now and it's one of Simon's favourite recipes ever.

3. Don't apologise.
4. Aim to cook within your skillset.
5. Prepare the day before.
But if all this is too hard, Yumi has a WINNING hack that will get everyone thinking you're amazing - with very little effort!

Have you noticed that Yumi sometimes speaks from the point of view of the food? I'm not saying she does that in this episode (where you can learn how to make focaccia bread) but you may get an insight into what focaccia is thinking... 😂 To make this recipe you're gonna need no knead, but these ingredients:
7g Yeast
2 tsp honey
2 1/2 cups lukewarm water
625g plain flour (you can use a mix of flours)
Mix until combined then leave it in an oiled bowl overnight. Warm climate? Leave it in the fridge. Cool climate? On the bench. Bake hot the next day for 20 - 25 minutes or when you can hear the focaccia crying out to be eaten.

1. Make a mixture of 1/2 cup olive oil and dried herbs, bit of salt, garlic.
2. Use a pastry brush to brush the mixture over pieces of good-quality (stale is ok) bread.
3. Cut the bread up into cubes.
4. Roast in a preheated 180C oven for 20 minutes, tossing them around.
5. Allow to cool before packaging them up to send to friends.

When I travel, I really have to consider foods which won't set off the two VOMITTY little ones. So no pink milk! I've learnt the hard way! Usually, wherever you go, you can easily buy junk food. So don't worry about packing junk: pack snacks that are harder to find. We arm you with a good list and some inspiration. Want more food tips? Check out the 5 Minute Food Fix Instagram.

I'm always interested in finding a delicious meal that includes vegetarians, vegans and those with allergies. KFC - Korean Fried Cauliflower - is super delicious! My version has chilli, which means it *can* exclude little kids, but it's easy to leave that bit out if you remember to!

Simon has edited a bunch of books about making really GOOD sandwiches. Bad sandwiches are like happy families - boring and common. Good sandwiches? Well let's write a goddamn novel about these, baby! There are some key elements to that delicious and perfect sandwich. Bread obviously. But I don't want to write about it here. I want you to hear our hosts wax lyrical about "HERO ingredients" - temperature (!!), a sandwich being like a bed, and the importance of being as generous with the condiments as our hosts are with the LOLs.

Having a group of people over for breakfast or brunch? Maybe you can serve up a piping hot pan full of unctuous, spicy sauce crowned with eggs that have been cooked to perfection?

Buying fish can be intimidating. There's a LOT of atmosphere, smells and CHOICE. What should you ask for? How can you tell if it's fresh? And what the heck is that dangly thing over there giving me side-eye? Yumi does a Rainbow Trout that takes 10 minutes to cook, Simon loves keeping a SMOKED TROUT on standby in the fridge (because they last) and he also has a surprising suggestion for a cheap single-serve fish portion that you probably have never tried, and it only takes 4 minutes to fry up!

Simon is wild about BACON JAM 😳 at the moment while Yumi is dancing a waltz with WHITE BALSAMIC VINEGAR.

It's a myth that people trying to sell their homes bake cookies so that their home smells "homely". But it's a myth that we like! Is there a way you can always have some cookie dough, close at hand, ready to whip out at short notice to turn into freshly baked biscuits and therefore fool everyone into thinking you've got your sh*t together? Is there ever! Listen to today's 5MFF and gather up these ingredients:
500g butter at room temperature
325g caster sugar
zest of 1 lemon or tangelo
2 eggs, beaten
250g plain flour
250g self-raising flour
200g chopped walnuts
60g choc chips
Cream the butter and sugar together until well-mixed and fluffy. Add in the zest and then the eggs one at a time. Sift in the flours and stir with a big metal spoon until just combined and then add in the nuts and choc chips. Don't over mix. Divide the dough into 4 even portions.
Shape each quarter of the dough into a log on baking paper and roll it up like a sausage, making it as neatly cylindrical as you can be bothered to do. Twist the ends of the baking paper to close then put the logs in the fridge or freezer until you're ready to use them. TO COOK: pre-heat the oven to 180C. Slice the cookie dough log into 3-4mm slices. Arrange on a baking tray (they will spread so leave space between) and bake for 10-12 minutes.

Yumi's friend once pitched a TV show called 'Can't Boil An Egg' - a way of explaining a cooking show for total non-cooks. Did he have a premonition of the 5 Minute Food Fix? Quite possibly! We share Meera Sodha's terrific way of preserving boiled eggs which is by immersing them overnight in a soaking mix of: 100ml soy sauce, 100ml water, 1tbs white wine vinegar and 1 tbs sugar. And I apologise in advance if I talk about the time I got food poisoning from a boiled egg. Want more food tips? Check out the 5 Minute Food Fix Instagram.

In his schedule, Simon sets aside a day for food preparation. We can't all do that because we are not all massive food nerds BUT we can take some lessons from Simon's example - how to make a few hours of pottering about in the kitchen PAY OFF ALL WEEK. Like what? Do you have some wilting vegetables at the bottom of the fridge that you could roast so later in the week you've got all the necessary trimmings for a Roast Veg Salad? While the veg is roasting, what about using up that leftover chicken to make a lovely chicken broth? Yumi has a recipe for chicken soup that is basically the stock you made on Food Prep day, some orzo (or risoni) pasta, and if you really want? Add in a cup of tiny cubes of sweet potato. Delicious!
