Anna: poached and marinated prawns
Poached and Marinated Prawns SERVES 4 1 celery stalk, halved crossways 3 black peppercorns 1 shallot, halved and unpeeled 2 marjoram or oregano sprigs 1 fresh bay leaf 2 slices of lemon Sea salt 16 large raw prawns MARINADE 125ml (½ cup) extra virgin olive oil 1 lemon, ½ finely sliced, ½ juiced Handful of parsley leaves, finely chopped Handful of mint leaves, finely chopped ½ long red chilli, seeds removed, sliced Sea salt and black pepper INGREDIENTS METHOD 1 Place the celery, peppercorns, shallot, marjoram or oregano, bay leaf and lemon slices in a large saucepan. 2Cover with 2 litres of cold water and season well with salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and add the prawns. 3Gently poach the prawns for 4-5 minutes or until they are just cooked. Remove the prawns and, when cool enough to handle, peel and devein them, discarding the heads and shells. 4 Transfer the prawns to a shallow bowl and add the marinade ingredients. Stir to coat and set aside to marinate for 15 minutes, before serving at room temperature. Alternatively, make ahead and refrigerate, then bring to room temperature before serving. TIP You can make this dish ahead of time. Just be sure to bring the prawns to room temperature before serving. Plenty of bread to mop up all the delicious marinade is a must.

Fresh Ricotta (in the tub)

Drizzle Cobram Estate Olive Oil on top
Corrie: Tarragon ChickenFrom Julia Busuttil Nishimura’s ‘Good Cooking Every Day’
1 × 1.6-1.8kg chicken, broken down into 6 pieces
sea salt
plain flour, for dusting
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp unsalted butter
6 eschalots (French shallots), halved
125ml (½ cup) dry white wine
250ml (1 cup) pure cream
300ml chicken stock
handful of tarragon sprigs
black pepper
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180C fan-forced
Season the chicken pieces with salt and dust in the flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat half the olive oil and butter in a large, deep ovenproof frypan over a medium-high heat. When the butter is foaming, add the chicken, in batches if needed, and brown for 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan.
Wipe the pan clean and add the remaining olive oil and butter. Once the butter is foaming, add the eschalots and a pinch of salt and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the eschalots are beginning to colour. Deglaze with the wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to lift any brown bits. Cook for 1-2 minutes until reduced, then add the cream, stock and tarragon sprigs. Season with a little salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and return the chicken, skin-side up, to the pan.
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.

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?

BOOK: Corrie has a book: So Late In the Day by Claire Keegan
SCREEN: Caro reviews Blitz
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.

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
