Turkish Borecks (Sigara Boregi) at The Red Hill Agricultural show

It was great fun rolling these Borecks with volunteers from the audience they did an awesome job & learnt a new skill!

Borecks can be filled with either fried lamb mince from www.woolumbi.com and dried mint, enough to give it that real Turkish taste or potato & red onion from www.brf.com.au at the Red Hill show yesterday I filled the borecks with potato & red onion & the other with Feta from www.redhillcheese.com.au & fresh chopped parsley from www.brf.com.au both very popular!

Here is the recipe for the Feta & parsley Borecks I hope you enjoy making them X

100 Mile Foodie is an exciting new business venture for me to share my food discoveries, my passions and my joy of using local, sustainable and ethical food & wine available right on my doorstep.

On a hot summers day 100 Mile Foodie came to Mount Martha and ran an amazing Turkish cooking class for a group of 20 of us. With a smile on her face and little printed cook books in hand Janice talked us through and demonstrated the creation of a number of delicious dishes. Everyone in the group got a chance to participate and had a great time in the kitchen. There was so much food and every dish was delightful. I know I walked away with a better understanding of Turkish cuisine with the knowledge and skills to recreate it at home. It was a great day that everyone in the group raved about!

We recently had a gathering of 45 of my husband Jamie's close friends and family to celebrate his 50th birthday. With very short notice gorgeous Marlene from 100 Mile Foodie suggested an amazing menu that catered for all. Using all local Mornington Peninsula produce and Marlene's experience the food was absolutely incredible. All of our guests were constantly commenting on how good each dish was and were blown away by the flavours. Marlene is so professional and organised and her food is so delicious that I can fully recommend her to cater for any function. Thank-you so much Marlene you made Jamie's day such a success!

I have used 100 Mile Foodie's services for 2 events now. On both occasions the food has been amazing, the service outstanding and the styling impressive. What really sets Marlene and 100 Mile Foodie apart is her passion for local produce, which shines through in her food and presentation.

Marlene ran a fantastic Turkish cooking class for us as part of a hen's weekend at a private house in Sorrento. The class was a great mix of demonstrations and hands on activities and Marlene was really flexible to work with us to achieve the feel we wanted for the evening. I can't wait to try some of the recipes at home!
