62. What kind of Mum are you?

69. Erin's Greatest Hits

If Cookidoo deleted everything tomorrow, what recipes would survive? This week it’s Erin’s turn to take the wheel and count down her all-time Thermomix greatest hits. From the recipe that made her go “holy sh*t” (hello, Bao Buns with Braised Pork Belly) to the weeknight heroes, the hidden gems and the recipes she recommends over and over again, Erin is sharing the dishes that have genuinely earned a permanent place in her kitchen. Expect traffic light salad, Dubai chocolate, pizza bianca, sous vide steak with hollandaise, the mac and cheese that saved dinner more times than she’d care to admit, and a surprise parmesan gelato that had everyone fooled. Plus, a secret bonus track featuring everyone’s favourite canned mystery meat. If the Thermomix gods wiped Cookidoo tomorrow, these are the recipes Erin would save first. Sing along.

68. Bronte's Greatest Hits

This week, we’re handing Bronte the aux cord and counting down the recipes that have defined a generation. Well, his generation. From the chart-topping Bolognaise Rhapsody and Filo Me Softly to perennial favourites like Thai Green Chicken Curry, Mash for Two, Greek Broccoli and the encore that never disappoints, Chocolate Chip Cookies, we’re revisiting the recipes Bronts keeps coming back to time and time again. But this isn’t just a greatest hits album. We dig into the stories behind the recipes, the kitchen wins, the occasional disasters, and the dishes that have become part of Bronte’s food DNA. Also, after falling down a Loui Burke Instagram rabbit hole, we somehow end up discussing the correct way to make a bed. Is your bed made? Is it tucked properly? Are you even trying? Digitally remastered for superior flavour. As heard on A Girl, A Gay & A Thermo. Contains six recipes, one bed-making intervention, and absolutely no filler tracks.  Loui Burke https://www.instagram.com/louiburke/ [https://www.instagram.com/louiburke/] Bolognaise sauce https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r68840 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r68840] Filo chicken pie https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r924863 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r924863] Thai green curry https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r68555 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r68555] Mashed potato for two https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r78478 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r78478] Greek broccoli with rocket salad pesto and roasted lemon https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r909864 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r909864] Chocolate chip cookies https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r178841 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r178841] You can find Bronte and Erin at; https://www.instagram.com/a_girl_a_gay_and_a_thermo/ [https://www.instagram.com/a_girl_a_gay_and_a_thermo/] https://www.instagram.com/illhavewhatshesmixing [https://www.instagram.com/illhavewhatshesmixing] https://www.instagram.com/homo_with_a_thermo/ [https://www.instagram.com/homo_with_a_thermo/] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

67. F*ck, It's Cold.

Winter has officially arrived, and frankly, we’re not thrilled about it. This week we kick things off with the results of last week’s very important poll: what colour are Mark’s socks, and are we dealing with another blue/black white/gold dress situation? We also chat about the Kylie documentary and a slightly stroppy Russell Crowe. If you're not interested in our non-food piffle talk, jump ahead about 14 mins. Then it’s time to embrace comfort food season. We’re talking casseroles—can the Thermomix do the heavy lifting, or is this one for the oven? Plus, a special shout out to Bronte’s mum Heather, who was so ahead of her time she literally ran a casserole business in the 80s called Dial-a-Casserole. Heather, we bow down. Heather walked so Uber Eats could run. We also tackle the age-old question: what should you cook when you’re crook? From Erin’s homemade garlic and ginger “elixir” to surprisingly easy homemade chicken stock and broth, we’ve got your winter wellness covered. And because no winter episode would be complete without soup, we’re diving spoon-first into the ultimate loaded baked potato soup. Bacon, cheese, sour cream, chives, and enough topping variations to keep you warm until spring. So grab a blanket, put the kettle on, and join us for an episode packed with comfort food, winter survival tips, and the usual amount of nonsense. Stay warm, friends.  Sausage and bacon casserole https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r301976 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r301976] Tuna mornay https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r238977 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r238977] Basic chicken broth https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r765615 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r765615] Turmeric bone broth https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r614807 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r614807] Loaded potato soup https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r802267 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r802267] Irish potato soup https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r82532 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r82532] Leek and potato soup https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r815959 [https://cookidoo.com.au/recipes/recipe/en-AU/r815959] You can find Bronte and Erin at; https://www.instagram.com/a_girl_a_gay_and_a_thermo/ [https://www.instagram.com/a_girl_a_gay_and_a_thermo/] https://www.instagram.com/illhavewhatshesmixing [https://www.instagram.com/illhavewhatshesmixing] https://www.instagram.com/homo_with_a_thermo/ [https://www.instagram.com/homo_with_a_thermo/] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

66. Mince and Repeat

Mince. The unsung hero of the weeknight dinner. Cheap, versatile, always available… and capable of so much more than bolognese, meatballs and burgers. This week, we’re giving mince the glow-up it deserves with smash burger tacos, pork and cabbage rolls, Mexican stuffed peppers, spiced lamb flatbreads and plenty of ideas to rescue you from your dinner rut. If you’ve got a packet of mince in the fridge and no inspiration, we’ve got you covered. We also tackle one of life’s most pressing questions: if you were a Thermomix mode, which one would you be? Are you a Slow Cook? A Turbo? Or something a little more chaotic? Plus, winter has arrived and so has the annual battle with the laundry. Drying clothes inside the house: practical necessity or absolute hate crime? We have thoughts. So grab your mince, your clothes horse and your strongest opinions. It’s time for another episode of A Girl, a Gay and a Thermo.

65. Highly Influenced

This week on A Girl, a Gay and a Thermo, we’re diving into the viral food trends we simply HAD to Thermify. We’re talking the Skinnymixers dumpling lasagne (and yes, it absolutely lives up to the hype), sushi in every form imaginable — baked cups, sushi waffles, even sushi lasagne — plus everyone's obsession with cottage cheese (Bronte turns it into something actually delicious). Balsamic glaze gets a look in and why we suddenly want to drizzle it over everything. Along the way, we unpack the food trends we just can’t quit, the random online purchases Instagram convinced us we desperately needed, throw around some possible TM7 gossip and give Girl Dinner the respect it deserves. Basically: if TikTok made it famous, there’s a good chance we’ve either cooked it… or been influenced into buying it.
