Can anyone please send me the recipe for Donna's Cheat's Raspberry Trifle and/or the Creme Brulee shown on Donna's show on Lifestyle Food on Sunday 8 Jan 2012 in Brisbane? I can't find either of these recipes on the website.
I love Donna Hay and the way she presents her food. There are alot of T.V. chefs/ cooks out there but for me Donna presents in a way that everyone can cook great food with no fanfare just simple fast and fresh. I want to see more of Donna on the Fodd Channel new series would be great.... Thanks Donna
Yes all good except for her keeps on flicking her hair. Not the most hygienic.

Love the quick and easy recipes and i will be cooking most of them...thanks Donna

The Egg & Bacon Pie recipe is on Lifestyle Food/Donna Hay's Recipes - page 1. Looks Good.
kr i would like to have the recipe for single bacon and egg tarts with the pasty being bacon cannot find it anywhere and its driving me up the wall
Does anyone know what ovens/cooktops Donna Hay uses in her test kitchens
I have a fussy family & they were all a bit skeptical of the Chicken with maple syrup. But I told them they could just try it & to their surprise they all loved it. Thanks Donna.
Chicken with roasted Beets. One of my favorite recipes of all time. I LOVE this recipe and have won over beet haters from day one. I think this combination of pan roasted chicken breasts with oven roasted beets and feta with an Oregano balsamic butter reduction is just fabulous. Just makes my mouth water thinking about it. AND if you are fortunate enough to know how to pan roast the chicken to perfection in the pan and finish in the oven, you have the trick down with tender delicious meat and good roasted vegetables. It does NOT get any better than this sister, let me tell you!!!!!!
A few weeks ago I saw ((and USED)) immediately a recipe for pie pastry - I was so sure it was a Donna thing - but can't find it anywhere and it was absoultely the best pastry recipe I have every used. Did anyone else get it??? It was something like this .... melt the butter in saucepan (I think this also included liquid -either milk or I thought water) and little salt then add in the flour .. If you have this particular recipe I would be very appreciative - the top and bottom pastry texture were almost like a commercial pie with the slightly spongy base and a nice crisp top. THANKS...
Hi Sonya, Might not be Donna after all - she always uses store bought pastry? Did see a really good pie pastry recipie on The Cook and the Chef with Maggie Beer?
Did anyone write down the recipe for Donna Hay Coconut Jelly? Would love recipe.
The recipe for her Coconut Jelly is listed on the recipe page under Celebrity Chef Recipes. Its the 1st tab at the top of the page. I was looking for it too! Enjoy.
does anyone know the brand of the "white cast iron" casserole dish donna uses ?le cruesset / le chasseur and where can one be purchased?
Le Cruesset. Try Peters of Kensington.
Love the show. As it's entitled "Fast, Fresh and Simple".
Does anyone know what food processor System Donna uses??
the quick pumpkin soup Donna Hay made is awesome... I have made it so many times quick simple and definatley easy.
I want your kitchen!
