MasterChef Australia winner, Julie Goodwin, tours New Zealand
Australia watched as Julie Goodwin told the judges her vision for her cookbook in the final week of MasterChef Australia Series 1. This vision is now a reality. Our Family Table is a mouth-watering collection of recipes from Julie and her family. Some recipes are heirlooms passed down in Julie’s family through generations, while others were given to her by friends and neighbours. There are lazy weekend breakfasts to enjoy with the family, weekday and special occasion dinners, barbecue and camp cooking, and cakes, biscuits and puddings galore. Julie also includes recipes she created on MasterChef – such as her now famous lemon diva cupcakes and her passionfruit ‘puddle’ pie.
Since taking out the coveted title of Australia’s first MasterChef, mum-of-three Julie Goodwin has become a household name. Formerly an IT professional running a successful family business, she now writes a monthly column for the Australian Women's Weekly and has plans to open a restaurant.
Julie says: 'In this book I'm not just presenting recipes but exploring the role of food in families and communities. I want to get people back into their kitchens and promote the joy of food and family. Our Family Table is full of lovely stories and recipes and feasts, with a strong focus on good old-fashioned tucker.'
