10 most popular new recipes of 2024 (so far)
Note! This is a top 10 list for recipes I have published in 2024. Not an all-time most popular list!! So donāt be shocked if your all time favourite there. š
10. Lamb Korma Curry
Iām thrilled to see a recipe thatās not a quick weeknight meal making it into the Top 10! Itās definitely List-Worthy. š The korma curry sauce is truly amazingāitās a flavour you wonāt find in a jar, and even at a restaurant, youād have to know where to go to find one that rivals this!

9. Smoky Roasted Tomato Soup
I was also really happy to see this make The List! I wasnāt sure if it would appeal, thought perhaps it wasnāt exciting enough for you.š But what I really like about this soup is that itās a really great way to make something tasty out of lacklustre tomatoes, which is sadly all too common in grocery stores here in Australia. So imagine how great it is when tomatoes are season!

8. Crispy Oven Baked Quesadillas
Strong performer to make the top 10 list because I only published it last month! This is a really handy recipe because you can make multiple quesadillas at the same time in the oven rather than flipping them one by one on the stove. Whoās got time for that when youāve got a hoard of hungry teenagers!
7. Sausage Ragu with Pappardelle Pasta
I feel like the word āraguā always gets your attention. š Though in all seriousness, this oneās pretty special because it gets a massive flavour leg-up by using sausages for the meat, and economical to make too. The richness and depth of flavour in it is really, really good!

6. One-pot Moussaka Beef Rice Pilaf
Hazarding a guess for why this made The List! Letās seeā¦.convenience of a meal in one potā¦. plus the name (everybody loves Moussaka!)ā¦plus maybe the photo looks appealing, with the juicy looking tomato stained rice with the shiny balls of chickpeas?

5. My 14 favourite low-calorie dinners

4. Tray bake lamb kofta meatballs and vegetables
I love a tray bake thatās a little different, like meatballs and vegetables! Works perfectly with the bonus that all your meatballs remain perfectly round, unlike when pan frying when one side always seems to flatten!

3. Singapore Chicken Vermicelli Noodles
Australia is mad for Singapore noodles! But they are kind of a pain to make ā you need a little bit of Char Sui (Chinese BBQ Pork) and freshly peeled prawns. So I made a tonight version using using chicken instead. Instant hit! (I feel this might be happening for my own dinner tonight.)

2. One pot Chicken Risoni with Crispy Salami
Why I think you love it: Because we all love a one pot recipe! Oozy, creamy risotto vibes with a whole lot less work. Also, the crispy salami. Itās worth making this just to experience the crispy salami! #BetterThanBacon

1. Lemon Garlic Salmon Tray Bake
Why I think you love it: Because, everything you need for a meal cooked on one tray! Fast prep. Less washing up. And tasty! Love the lemon garlic flavour on the salmon.

10 most popular recipes of 2024 FAQ
Tell me in the comments below what you thought of The List! Any surprises? Any disappointments? I personally was a little sad that wasnāt on the list, because we worked so hard on that recipe. Hand on heart, between JB, my brother and I, I think we probably made over 30 versions before we cracked the code. And still, to this day, yet to have one as good, even at a restaurant!
Other notable āsad it didnāt make The Cutā mentions include: Chicken Cacciatore (Italian! Stewy! Easy!), Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi (just missed out, coming in at number 12) and Cheesymite Scrolls (Australia! Itās a travesty.).
And my publisher is probably going to be gutted my new book announcement didnāt make The List.
But donāt worry about my publishersā or my opinion! The most important one that matters is in the section below. ā¬ļø š ā Nagi x
Life of Dozer
Dozer is not having a good day.
First, he found out he didnāt make the 2024 top 10, with 13 recipes ahead of his most popular postā¦..
Then he found out itās toy washing day.
This is about as bad as Life of Dozer gets these days! š (And I wouldnāt have it any other way ā¤ļø).
