ON THIS EPISODE:
Special guest co-host, Kelli Underwood
Caro asks Kelli about her decision finish with Offsiders
We explore Kelli’s experience as a ground breaking play-by-play commentator of AFL
How the AFLW can improve and evolve
And some topical ‘6 quick questions’
Kelli Underwood joins Caroline Wilson
While Caro is a ground breaker in the industry, Kelli is too – having been the first woman to call AFL on TV for channel 10
Her first experience in a commentary box with 3AW – and the various roles she had
Her addiction to the adrenaline of calling a game of footy
Some of the biggest stories she has broken
Kelli’s decision to finish up with Offsiders
Memorable episodes of Offsiders
Calling AFL games – Rex Hunt planted the seed
The challenges she faced – and her experience with Ch 10 – did 12 games over 2 years but felt like a failure at the end of it – however ABC continued to believe in her and gave her games
Kelli spoke about why she loves seeing females coming through as callers of AFL / AFLW games – Jess Webster, Lauren Bourdin, Jo Wotton
Kelli says she controls the negativity now – the feedback can be so predictable
People have an obsession with people that make mistakes – of course commentators will make mistakes
AFLW – they’re not doing enough – it has come a long way and the quality is improving -but who is in there advocating and innovating with AFLW?

FOOD: CORRIE HAS A RECIPE : Spring Bruschetta by Julia Busuttil Nishimura
350 g fresh shelled peas or frozen baby peas
2 garlic cloves
juice of ½ lemon, plus extra juice and finely grated zest to serve
handful each of mint leaves and parsley leaves
30 g Pecorino Romano, grated, plus extra to serve
80 ml (⅓ cup) extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
sea salt and black pepper
4 slices of sourdough
2 × 100 g buffalo mozzarella balls, roughly torn, at room temperature
8 anchovy fillets in olive oil, drained
Whenever I have friends over, I usually start with something on grilled bread. These bruschetta are great because, if you use frozen peas, they are not just for spring, although eating them in spring does feel very right. The bread can be grilled and the topping made ahead of time, with assembly taking place just before serving.
Blanch the peas until tender, drain and refresh under cold water.
Reserve 50 g (⅓ cup) of the peas and set aside.
Finely grate one of the garlic cloves and place in a food processor with the peas, the lemon juice, mint, parsley and Pecorino Romano.
Process to a fairly smooth mixture, scraping the side of the bowl if needed. Stream in the olive oil, process again to combine and season to taste. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the reserved peas. Set aside.
Grill both sides of the bread on a grill plate until golden and slightly charred on both sides. Halve the remaining garlic clove and rub one side of the grilled bread with the cut side of the garlic. Place the bread on a serving plate and drizzle with some extra olive oil. Top with some mozzarella, follow with a spoonful of the pea mixture and finish by draping over an anchovy fillet. Top with some lemon zest and extra lemon juice, another drizzle of olive oil, a scattering of extra Pecorino Romano and season with salt and pepper. Cut each slice in half to serve as a snack.

Ingredients
20g mint leaves, roughly chopped
20g dill, roughly chopped
25g chives, roughly cut into 2cm lengths
75ml olive oil
2 large (750g) fennel bulbs, trimmed, halved lengthways and finely shaved on a mandolin or by hand

1 tbsp lemon juice
1½ tsp fennel seeds, toasted and roughly crushed with a pestle and mortar

40g preserved lemon (1-2 lemons), pips discarded and flesh and skin roughly chopped (35g)
½ (20g) small shallot, roughly chopped

BOOK: Corrie has a book: Kitchen Sentimental by Annie Smithers (non-fiction)
SCREEN: Corrie and Caro discuss a Screen: Slow Horses (series 4) on Apple TV
FOOD: Caro has a Recipe: Mediterranean baked fish with tomato and fennel
Serves 4
2 large fennel bulbs, thinly sliced (500g) plus the fronds for garnish
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp cumin seeds, toasted and lightly crushed
2 tsp fennel seeds, toasted and lightly crushed
1 tbsp tomato paste
150ml ouzo
600g peeled and chopped plum tomatoes
1 tsp caster sugar
2 tbsp thyme leaves, picked, plus extra for garnish
2 strips of shaved lemon peel
600g fish cut into 4cm chunks
200g sheep’s milk feta, broken into 2cm chunks
60g unsalted butter
1 tsp chilli flakes
2 tsp lemon juice
Salt & pepper
Preheat the oven to 220ºC.
In a large frying pan sauté the fennel and garlic in the olive oil on a medium heat for about 10 minutes or until softened. Add the cumin and fennel seeds and cook for another minute. Stir in the tomato paste and then add the raki or ouzo. Allow this to bubble away for a couple of minutes. Mix in the tomatoes, sugar, half of the thyme, the lemon skin, 1 teaspoon of salt and some black pepper and stir well. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens, 15-20 minutes, adding a little extra water if it goes much thicker than your typical pasta sauce. Taste and add salt and pepper accordingly. Remove from the heat and discard the lemon peel.
Divide the hot sauce evenly between four individual casserole dishes or small pans. Alternatively, use one large dish. Season the sea bass pieces with salt and pepper and dot them inside, skin side down. Arrange over the squid followed by the prawns. Press the feta pieces around the fish so that they are also slightly submerged in the sauce. Finish with the remaining tablespoon of thyme leaves. Place on the top shelf in the oven 8-12 minutes, depending on the size of your dishes, or until the seafood is just cooked, the sauce bubbles nicely and the cheese turns golden.
Just before the casseroles are done, melt the butter in a small frying pan until it starts to foam. Add the chilli and cook until the butter just begins to brown. Pour in the lemon juice, stir and remove from the heat. Spoon this over the hot casseroles as soon as they come out of the oven. Sprinkle with the fennel fronds and serve hot with bread on the side.

FOOD: Corrie has a Recipe: From the new Ottolenghi cookbook Comfort: Linguine with miso butter, shitake and spinach
190g dried linguine (or spaghetti)
1tbsp olive oil
10g unsalted butter, fridge-cold, cut into 2cm cubes
1banana shallot, finely chopped (75g)
150g fresh shiitake mushrooms, roughly sliced 3garlic cloves, crushed
50g white miso paste
1tsp light soy sauce
I tbsp Chinkiang black (or malt) vinegar
150g baby spinach leaves salt and black pepper
To serve shichimi togarashi (or chilli flakes) lemon or lime wedges
The butter, miso and cooking water al combine to emulsify and coat the linguine here in the most comforting of al sauces. It's totally creamy without the use of any cream, and is perfect for an easy mid-week supper.
Ingredients note: The suggestion to add togarashi - the Japanese 7-spice mix - feels fusion and works well, but some regular chili flakes and a really (really!) good crack of black pepper works brilliantly too.
Serves 2
Bring a large saucepan with 2litres of water to the boil. Ad 1teaspoon of salt, followed by the pasta, and cook until al dente. Drain, saving 200ml of the cooking water.
Meanwhile, put the oil and 15g of the butter into a large sauté pan and place on a medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook for about 5minutes, until soft but not taking on any colour. Add the mushrooms, along with a good grind of pepper, and cook for about 7minutes, until the moisture has evaporated and they are starting to brown. Add the garlic, miso, soy sauce and vinegar and stir for about 30 seconds until combined. Add the reserved pasta-cooking water, mxi well and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium and, keeping the mixture at a good simmer, ad the remaining 85g of butter piece by piece, stirring constantly until the sauce has emulsified and thickened slightly: this should take about 3minutes.
Return the cooked pasta to the pan, toss for 30 seconds, then add the spinach. Toss and turn for a minute, until it has wilted, then serve with a generous shake of shichimi togarashi (or chili flakes and a few extra grinds of pepper) and lemon or lime wedges alongside for squeezing.

250ml cold water
2 cardamom pods, cracked
200g ground almonds
50g fine polenta
1 teaspoon baking powder, gluten free if required
150g caster sugar
6 large eggs

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease the sides of cake tin and line the bottom with baking paper.
Remove five dried apricots and tear them in half for later use and make sure you also remove the cardamom husks, but leave the seeds in the pan.
Scrape the remaining apricot mixture into a food processor with the ground almonds, polenta, baking powder, caster sugar and eggs and blitz until well combined.
Open the food processor, scrape down the sides and add two teaspoons of lemon juice and the rosewater and blitz again.
Scrape the mixture into the prepared tin, smooth the top, arrange the apricot halves around the circumference and pop in the oven to bake for 40 minutes. If the cake is browning up at the 30 minute mark, pop some alfoil loosely on the top.
When it is ready, the cake will be coming away from the edges of the tin and a skewer will come out clean when tested.
Place the cake in it's tin on a wire rack. If using apricot jam, just warm it a little to make it easier to spread. Stir in a teaspoon of lemon juice to jam and brush over the surface of the cake.
Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the top and leave the cake to cool in the tin.
Cook's tip
Store in an airtight container for 5-7 days or in the fridge if the weather is hot. The cake can also be frozen successfully for up to three months

FOOD: Caro has a recipe: Beef tagliata - Italian recipes by GialloZafferano
Ingredients:
Entrecôte 28 oz (800 g) - (sirloin)
Arugula ¾ cup (100 g)
Cherry tomatoes ¾ cup (100 g)
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Extra virgin olive oil to taste
Method:
To prepare sliced beef tagliata with arugula and cherry tomatoes, make sure to take the piece of entrecôte out of the fridge at least one hour before cooking, as the meat must not be cooked cold. Wash and dry the arugula well. Then wash and cut the tomatoes in half
1. Move on to the meat: remove the fat (if present) from the surface 2, then divide the piece of meat into slices about 1 ½” (4 cm) thick 3. Heat the grill and let it warm up nice and hot. When the grill is hot, lay a piece (or maximum two) of meat 4, then reduce the heat, to medium-high and cook for about 3 minutes on that side. Then you can turn the meat with tongs (do not use a fork, so as not to pierce it and let the juices come out) and cook for another 3-4 minutes 5. To ensure that the cooking is rare, you can use a kitchen thermometer 6: when the core temperature is around 125-129° F (52-54° C), the meat is ready. Take it off the grill and leave it on the cutting board for a minute to let it rest and retain its juices 7 (if you have to leave it longer, cover it with aluminum foil). Then cut crosswise to obtain several slices with a sharp non-serrated knife 8. Arrange a bed of arugula on a serving plate, the beef tagliata, and some tomatoes 9. A drizzle of oil, flakes of salt (or coarse salt) and freshly ground pepper. and your sliced beef tagliata with arugula and cherry tomatoes is ready to be served!

Food, for Cobram Estate - Australia’s most awarded extra virgin olive oil. Grown, harvested and first cold pressed in Northern Victoria:
Salmon & prawn pie in a pan | Jamie Oliver recipes
Ingredients
olive oil
1 x 270g pack of filo pastry
smoked paprika
100 g couscous
800 g ripe mixed-colour tomatoes
2 x 130g salmon fillets, skin off, pin-boned , from sustainable sources
165 g raw peeled king prawns , from sustainable sources
2 lemons
1 bunch of dill (20g)
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
2. Brush a 30cm non-stick ovenproof frying pan with olive oil and layer in three sheets of filo. Brush with oil again and dust from a height with paprika. Layer in the remaining sheets, leaving a good overhang. Brush with oil again, then sprinkle in the couscous.
3. Finely slice the tomatoes and layer half into the pan, then season with a small pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Slice each salmon fillet into three lengthways and arrange on top, then scatter over the prawns.
4. Finely grate over the lemon zest. Finely chop and scatter over the dill, layer over the remaining tomatoes and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil. Add another small pinch of salt and pepper, then fold in the overhanging filo to cover, scrunching it as you go.
5. Brush with a little more oil, squeeze over the lemon juice and dust with more paprika.
6. Place over a high heat on the hob until it starts to sizzle – about 4 minutes – then bake for 30 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. Nice served with a dollop of yoghurt and a seasonal salad.

Australia’s most awarded extra virgin olive oil. Grown, harvested and first cold pressed in Northern VictoriaFOOD: Caro has a recipe: CIDER-BRAISED PORK SHOULDER WITH APPLES & ONIONSI have used alcoholic apple cider here; it will also work with a dry non-alcoholic apple cider.1¼ tablespoons salt2-2.5kg pork shoulder, bone in, skin removed1 tablespoon olive oil375ml apple cider (1 can)500ml chicken stock2 tablespoons Dijon mustard8 garlic cloves, smashed (leave skins on)¼ bunch thyme sprigs (about 8 sprigs)Freshly cracked black pepper 2 red onions, cut into 10 wedges2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cut into 8 wedgesPreheat oven to 160C (150C fan-forced).Season pork with 1 tablespoon of salt. Heat olive oil in a large casserole dish with a lid over medium heat. Add the pork shoulder, fat side down, and allow it to brown undisturbed for about 5 minutes until caramelised. Turn the pork over and repeat, ensuring all sides get caramelised. Use tongs to prop the pork against the side of the pan to brown the sides.Once browned, turn the shoulder fat side up. Pour in the apple cider and chicken stock.Add mustard, garlic and thyme, and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat.Cover pork shoulder loosely with baking paper - this will help keep things nice and tender - and put the lid on (or move to a baking dish and double cover with foil). Place in the oven and cook for 3 hours.Carefully remove from the oven and arrange onion and apple wedges around the pork shoulder. Cover and return to the oven for another 30 minutes. At this stage the meat should be falling apart, and the apples and onions tender. Remove from the oven, spoon over the juices and let it rest for 20 minutes before serving. Remove any garlic skins. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.Serve pork spooned over mashed potato with plenty of braising liquid. I like to serve it with a dollop of hot English mustard and steamed greens.
