By the looks of this pork Cuban Sandwich, we know what's going to make it incredible! Make it your way with Mifroma.

When asked to picture Swiss cheese, the archetypal wedge bedecked with holes no doubt comes to mind 🧀

Pale and creamy, defined by its mild flavour and those iconic 'eyes' or holes, Emmentaler is for many the Swiss cheese par excellence, despite Switzerland being home to many distinct varieties of dairy delight.

The presence of pork in a good Cuban makes an off-dry Riesling an excellent pairing with this sandwich, though an aged Semillon or a fresh Rosé would also be ideal choices.

The iconic inselberg rising from the red soil of the Central Western Desert is something anyone could conjure the image of in their mind – but being in the presence of the landmark in person is something completely other, something far more poignant and sacred, and an experience that is more than worth organizing.

Returning to her roots, Mindy Woods shares the endless, timeless joy of simply being on Country, with all the natural abundance that follows🌷

Woods appeared on MasterChef in 2012 and again in 2022. Now with a venue of her own – Karkalla at Bryon Bay. Her food, then as now, is inviting, innovative, yet familiar and approachable.

Her just-released cookbook, Karkalla at Home.
