A SNEAK PEEK INSIDE ISSUE 125

Issue 125 hits the shelves Monday, February 5th and we’re so excited to share a sneak peek with you!
2026 is well under way and we're ready to join the fun with our latest issue, which (no matter the weather), is so hot right now! With seafood from MasterChef favourite Harry Butterfield, seasonal recipes making the most oflate summer produce, and sumptuous dinners for duos we get off to a delicious start. Next up contributor Amelia Ferrier tempts tastebuds with two chicken recipes before we fossick in the back of the pantry for some instant noodles, then magic them into five delicious dinners to share. Miso has been having a moment (for centuries) and we make it shine in three gorgeous recipes, then set a table under the olives for a lazy Italian feast. With the year's routines well under way, we banish boring back-to-work lunches with a selection of tasty bento boxes to make that midday break even more rewarding. Olivia Galletly puts a smile on the faces of the young (and young-at-heart) with a round up of fun and playful treats and our Make It Tonight section is packed with quick-fix dinners that are simple to make, but good enough to share. We round up this issue with our award-winning selection of the best Sauvignon blancs on the market. We may have hit February already, but with this issue of dish, the party is just getting started!

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
