Chef, restaurateur, writer and now TV presenter, Karen Martini has only ever wanted to cook and she has been doing so for as long as she can remember.
For delicious tomato recipes from Karen, CLICK HERE.
Karen’s food is unmistakably that of the Mediterranean, but is also undeniably individual. She is firmly produce driven and has a passion for fresh herbs, heirloom tomatoes, fennel, garlic, virgin olive oil, sheep and goat’s milk curds and cheeses, olives, anchovies, coriander seeds, cumin, the freshest seafood and properly aged organic meat.
In the ‘90’s, Karen held head chefs positions at Haskin’s and the much lauded Kent Hotel, before cementing her reputation at The Melbourne Wine Room; in St Kilda’s iconic George Hotel. Karen was the founding chef at The Melbourne Wine Room and has garnered countless ‘Chef’s Hats’ from The Age Good Food Guide in her eight years as Executive Chef there. Karen became a partner in the business in 1997.
In 2002, Karen couldn’t resist the opportunity to take up a unique career challenge with friend and business partner, at The Melbourne Wine Room, Maurice Terzini (driving force behind such Melbourne restaurant icons as Caffé e Cucina, Il Bacaro, The Melbourne Wine Room and Sydney’s Otto), and accepted the mantle of Executive Chef at what was soon to become one of Australia’s most talked about restaurants. Positioned overlooking Sydney’s famous Bondi Beach, Icebergs Dining Room & Bar became her much loved second home for two years.
When Karen was appointed Executive Chef at Icebergs Dining Room & Bar, she retained executive control over the kitchen at The Melbourne Wine Room and still continues to closely supervise both the menu and the high standard of the food there. Testament to her ability to manage this dual role, Karen has been awarded two ‘Chef’s Hats’ for both restaurants from each city’s well-respected Good Food Guides. The Icebergs, was also awarded Best New Restaurant in The Sydney Morning Herald’s 2004 Good Food Guide.
In July, 2004 Karen opened Mr Wolf, a new ‘Martini-esque style’ pizzeria, restaurant and bar, with her long term partner (both in life and business) Michael Sapountsis in Melbourne’s St Kilda.
Over the years, Karen has cooked for many charity functions including; Chefs Unite – Feed for Seed, a fundraising dinner where total proceeds of the event went to a tsunami rebuilding project in Sri Lanka; The Mission Dinner for the Homeless; The Breast Cancer Foundation; and The Starlight Foundation Four Chefs Dinners. She was a featured chef, alongside Stephanie Alexander; at a major Slow Food Dinner in Turin, Italy in 1998, and has been a key presenter at The Melbourne Food & Wine Festival. Karen has also contributed several articles to The Weekend Australian.
Always up for a new challenge, in August 2004, Karen Martini became the food editor of Sunday Life, the Sun Herald and Sunday Age’s weekly magazine, published in both Sydney and Melbourne. In 2005 Karen was the resident chef on LifeStyle Cafe, a 13-part series on the LifeStyle Channel and she is currently in her fourth year presenting recipes to over 1 million viewers a week on Australia’s Longest running LifeStyle Show, Channel 7’s Better Homes & Gardens.
Hi I just wanted to say thank you for the fabulous berry pavlova roll recipe featured on Better Homes and Gardens some time ago. It is so quick and easy to make and it is so delicious. The only thing I changed was I took a bit of the sugar out of the pavlova mixture and added a dash of sugar to the marscapone mixture. It almost has a lemony tang to it. Just perfect. I am trying to work out how to get the roll a bit more crunchy when I make it - maybe leave it in the oven longer?? Rose
I tried the Butter Chicken from the Sunday Age. Excellent but I used chicken cops and my children mixed in sour cream instead of the melted butter and all just loved it. I was able to adjust it to gluten free because one of my children is a coeliac. Could you please print some gluten free cakes as some have so many different flours that it is really expensive. What I need is some that use gluten free plain flour and Gluten free Self raising flour. Thank you for the Butter Chicken and I love watching Better Homes and Gardens. Congratulations. Eugenia - Dandenong
I am looking for a copy of Leek and crab lasagne. I have cooked it twice before and it is very special for special guests, but now I cannot find my recipe. Would anyone have a copy? I think it was in Good weekend in Sydney....thank you
Having cooked Pasticcio of Farfall with Beef, Eggs and Tomato, we froze the remainder- what is the best way to reheat it, we have 2 big pieces. Also we are hoping the taste will improve with the reheating, we found it quite bland, maybe more salt? Thanks, irene
There was a wonderful recipe on the BHG website in December for Chicken, Avocado and Basil salad that's no longer online. Did anyone keep this? Alison
Hey, Karen ... if you want some more information about my smoked garlic at Prahran Market, there is a big discussion on it in the taste.com.au forums ... and lots of recipes on Facebook under "Ail Fume Smoked Garlic" ... cheers.

I have lost my copy of the Plum sauce recipe published in the Sunday Age Life magazine in March this year. Does anyone have a copy, as this has been very popular with family and friends.
Yesterday watching Better Homes and Gardens on Foxtel, I think it was a repeat, Karen cooked a recipe with diced lamb coated in flour then cooked up onion,celery,garlic tin of artichokes etc then ended it with mint and mixed through pasta.

Chicken & sweetcorn soup recipe http://www.taste.com.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9325
I cooked your paella recipe from your cookbook and the stock won't reduce in the time you say. Is 1.5 litres correct?? looks like we'll be having paella soup tonight! What a waste of time and money!!
Hi Margaretta2 We've made this recipe MANY times and always had success using the 1.5L stock. We leave it on the stove longer than Karen suggests and at the end turn the heat right up to boil off any remaining liquid. It makes a beautiful creamy, soft meal. Hope you have more success next time.
Hi, Would anyone have Karen's chicken pie recipe that was in The Sunday Life Magazine a few weeks ago. I cannot find it anywhere??? Thanks so Much!
does anyone have Karen's chicken and sweet corn soup recipe she did on Better Homes & Gardens a year or so ago? please post if you do, cheers :)
Hi there - looking for Karen Martini's Moussaka Recipe - can anyone help?, thanks
Hi Karen Love watching your segment on Better Homes and Gardens but Im curious to know what you are wearing to protect your rings and is it available to purchase?.
When I first saw Karen cooking on Better Homes and Gardens, I was fascinated. The segment was totally about the food and NOT the chef. Subsequently I have enjoyed cooking quite a few of her recipes. (Have to say, however, that I did not like her make-up on My Kitchen Rules- they over did the "glam")
I have been a Karen Martini fan but after My Kitchen Rules she has now lost me. I thought she was picky and unnecessarily critical particularly in the grand final, it must be wonderful to be sooo perfect. I have made some of her recipes that don't work particularly an apple cake she had in Sunday Life some time ago. Wendy
Hi - Can anyone help me with the recipe for Pasticcio of Farfalle or Baked Pasta with mince I think the episode aired last September but was recently repeated.
Hi = looking for a receipe that was on lifestyle better homes and garden this evening 19/03/2010 - a pasta dish baked in the oven - came in on the tail end so did not even get the name - check the lifestyle web site but could not find - please someone
How do I find the recipe with Rigatoni, chorizo, boccoli and riccotta?
I'm looking for the granola cakes with seeds, dried fruit and honey recipe. Can anyone help?
Rosemary, A couple of weeks ago, Karen had a lovely recipe for coleslaw with cabbage & cheese as the main ingredients. I have lost my copy of the Sun Herald magazine Life (where this recipe appeared) but my family loved it and I would like to repeat it.
Hi. I am looking for Karen's potato salad with sausages. I remember it had seeded and dijon mustard, parsley and capers... If anyone has this recipe I would very much appreciate it. Thanks
Surf and turf Desperately seeking the recipe on Lifestyle on the fillet steak kebabs, prawns and green chilli sauce. Anyone have a copy?
Hi mike, I am also looking for this recipe - any luck
I made the Granola cakes with seeds, dried fruit and honey. the recipe says to put into muffin moulds, cook 15mins wait till cool before turning out. It's impossible to turn them out - they stick like glue! The recipe should say to use patty papers so they can lift out when cold. I'm a pensioner and the ingredients cost approx $50.00. To have this expensive recipe fail was extremely disappointing for me and I'm annoyed with Karen Martini for publishing this recipe. Money is obviously no problem for her!
Hi, i used a non stick muffin tray as well as spraying the pan with canola spray, once cooled thay fell out, without a problem. Thay are amazing..
I also had trouble turning these out. I did spray the muffin pans with olive oil spray first. When they were cool, I had trouble turning them out so I put them in the fridge for an hour or so and used a palet knife to pry them out !
I have justed tried Karen's moussaka recipe from Sunday Life magazine and find it seriously wrong ! The meat sauce was far too "liquidy" - I ended up pouring most of it off - almost a litre !( You could leave out the addition of 1 litre chicken stock, in my opinion). Also, I used only 2 eggplants (the recipe calls for 3) and found I still had plenty left over. Has anyone else had the same problem/s ? Louise.
I made this recipe too but it was fantastic - not too liquidy at all. Unfortunatley I have lost the recipe and want to make it again do you still have it? Cheers
Gaye Katoomba I made Karen's Pickled Cherry recipe from the Sunday Life of 13 or 20 December '09. It was a great success. I have since lost the recipe. Can anyone please help?
Also it leaked out some oily liquid whilst setting out of the oven so put a plate underneath.
DARK CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE 285g high cocoa dark chocolate Melt over water to melt. 25cm springform tin spray well with oil and line bottom with paper Take chocolate off heat and mix in 570ml double cream (must be high like 45% fat cream). Beat 6 large egg yolks with 170g caster sugar for 5 minutes until thick creamy pale yellow. Mix egg yolk mix into chocolate mix and pour into cake tin. Bake 150 degrees for 45 minutes. Should have risen, be flat on top and still have a bit of a wobble in the middle. Leave at room temperature 1 hour and then put in fridge for 1 hour. Run knife around edge and take out of tin and onto platter. Crumble over 50g amaretti biscuits. Just before serving sprinkle over ameretto liqueur. Note: When taking out of the oven it looks uncooked. It does set after refrigerating. It tastes great the next day.
I'm looking for Karen's recipe for whole bacon cook in the clay pot shown on Better Homes and Gardens last year. I lost most of ingredients for it. Need this for Xmas and I'm desperately, please help!!! Thanks

I'm trying to find karen's recipe for Fried haloumi with dried figs. It was in the Age about Sept '09. It was abolsutely delicious but i can't find my copy (grrrr). Does anyone have it?
I'm hunting for one of Karen's recipes; a carrot and orange syrup cake in Sunday Life. It has a honey and orange blossom syrup and it's decorated with a line of pisatchios.
It's been on the kitchen bench for the last week so I wouldn't forget to make it today, and then it mysteriously disappeared after my husband cleaned the kitchen! Thanks.
You are all in luck, i finally found it. Here it is from Sunday Life dec 06, 2009: Carrot, Almond & Orange Cake --------------------------------------- 1 small orange, boiled for 40min until tender 150g ground almonds 150g blanched almonds 120g carrot, coarsely grated 100g SR flour 3 free range eggs separated 150g caster sugar 2 tblsp pistachio kernels, to decorate SYRUP 300ml honey 2tblsp water 1 orange, zested and juiced 2 tblsp orange blossom water Preheat oven to fan forced 170C (190C Conversion) Grease and line a 30cm x 112cm loaf tin with baking paper Place the whole orange in a food processor and puree. pick out any pips and pith. add the ground and blanched almonds and process until almost smooth. tip the mix into a bowl, stir through grated carrot, then add flour and mix to incorporate. Beat egg yolks with sugar until creamy and pale. Fold into the almond carrot mix. in a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks, then fold through mix gently. Pour into cake tin and decorate with pistachio kernels. bake for 40-45 minutes, then remove and cool on a wire rack. To make the syrup, combine the honey, water and orange zest and juice in a small pot. bring to simmer for 3 minutes, then remove from heat. When cool, add orange blossom water. place cake on serving platter and drizzle syrup over to serve.
I too am looking for this recipe. The cake, when I cooked it, looked a bit odd and I thought it was a disaster, so I discarded the recipe. But it tasted wonderful and the syrup was to die for. Please, if anyone has the recipe please share!
I'm also desperately looking for a copy of this recipe. I'd been carrying it around all week to try to get the ingredients but have lost the cut out piece. Would really love the recipe.
I tried the Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake that Karen made on BH&G recently. I cooked the cake for 45minutes at 130C, it was very runny so I cooked it for another 45minutes. It was still very runny, so I placed it in the freezer and we had it as ice cream. Does anybody know what went wrong ? Chris
After reading your comment I cooked it at 150C for 45 minutes. Then left it out for 1 hour and in the fridge for 1 hour and it did set. When it was standing it leaked out some oily liquid so put a dish under it. It was very wobbly in the middle when I took it out of the oven.
Felicity (U.K.) I am looking for the recipe for Ms Waltons Christmas Cake as shown in the Sunday Age Supplement on 29th November 2009.A copy of the article would be great

?does anyone have karen's recipe for cassata..it was in good life in november-december 2008...i made it and it was grand, and i cannot find my recipe!!!!! did anyobe keep it?? thanks giuliana
Yes, I know everyone loves this kind of food, well ,the type of people who read 'lifestyle' and it's ilk. but I am sick to death of the mediteranian diet, buckets of pasta, gallons of olive oil etc. I realize pasta is very popularand I can see that it is quick and easy for the working mother, but aren't we supposed to be eating five vegetables a day? Surely you can't count basil leaves, bay leaves, oregano, chili flakes, garlic and tomato paste (and don't forget that it has to be ITALIAN tomato paste and imported everything.) Does no-one link the rise and rise of pasta dishes to the rise and rise of obesity? The much despised Australian staple, meat, potatoes and three vegies may turn out to be the better diet.
heelloooo???? why isnt anyone commenting?
heyy!! Karen Martini's food is the BEST. I am not proud to say however, that i have only ever tried one of her magnificent dishes!! :( Oh Well <3 Ya
Karen chefs and home cooks need to take a leaf out of your ccokbooks and programs. The way you cook present and encourage people from all walks of life to get out there and try to cook and enjoy food is to be commended. Congrats to you on your adventure infood and your personal life. So from grateful kitchens everywhere THANKX SISTER!!!!

Karen Martini we (my husband and I) love you. We love your books and collect your recipes from magazines whenever we come across them. Your recipes are appealing, inspiring, delicious and actually work everytime. Last night for dinner we made the Tuna, Brown rice, sumac and bean salad, in one word - YUM. Even my tuna-hating sister was tricked into trying it and wanted the recipe!!!! Recently there was a recipe in Sunday Life magazine for a Green Bean dish with a creamyish sauce and Hazelnuts, I have lost my copy and are very keen to try it, is it at all possible to get the recipe?? Cheers and many thanks.
mine has been ripped and now I cannot read the quantites, if anyone has it of knows where it is pubilshed?
You wouldn't have a copy of that tuna brown rice salad....I seem to have lost mine :(
In my opinion Karen is the best chef ever. Her receipes are delicious, easy and very creative. Also the way she presents them on BHG TV is so simple and very easy to follow. Karen, you rock.
I have lost the recipe for Brussels sprouts and Dutch Carrots - can anyone help????
Is it possible to get your recipe for a bean, fennel bulb, currant salad. I had it at a restaurant where the chef trained with you in Melbourne and I cannot find it anywhere. It has been on my mind and I would really appreciate obtaining a copy.

I saw Karen make minute steak on a replay of Better Homes & Garden's last night on Lifestyle & have been unable to find receipt---help. She is a GREAT chef
I have tried two of Karen's three recipes from the November 30th edition of the Sunday Life magazine but I have been unable to find any Bottarga to try the third. Is there a substitute for Bottarga I could try in the Linguini with Zucchini, Anchovies and Bottarga recipe? Regards, Terry
A couple of months ago this recipe was mentioned in the Age but the actual recipe wasn't printed in full. I tried to guess it but if anyone has the full recipe could they send it on to me?
There is no real subsitute for bottarga. I buy mine from Icnussa Fine Foods along with other Sardinian products. www.icnussa.com.au
I HAVE FOUND IT: Clarinbold's Seafood at Prahran Market Melbourne - Phone: 03 9826 8381.
Sorry, I have the same problem - Not much point to the receipe is there....
