For the eighth issue of delicious. On Sunday in Stellar magazine, we explore the kitchen-sink drama of modern mealtimes. In our age of fussy eaters, dietary quirks and chaotic schedules, feeding the family has become a high-wire act for time-poor working parents. We interview three food experts, including cookbook author Anna Gare, for culinary guidance on winning this struggle.

More inspiration comes from our regular meal plan. This week, we turn to Silvia Colloca for a series of light, flavourful and delectable Italian-inspired spring meals. Colloca has prepared dishes including quick risotto with zucchini and peas, asparagus and ricotta baked frittata tart, and veal cutlets with minted broad beans. “They’re perfect as the days get longer and the nights get warmer,” says Colloca. Meanwhile, Matt Preston has crafted a witty quiz to determine how good a foodie you really are.

delicious. on Sunday also includes news and reviews for each state on the eastern seaboard. In this week’s NSW edition, Victoria Hannaford checks out Barzaari, the scintillating Cypriot restaurant from chef Darryl Martin, while Dan Stock visits the innovative Small Axe Kitchen in Melbourne for the Victorian paper. Meanwhile, Anthony Huckstep reviews Hello Please, a new outdoor eatery in Brisbane serving Vietnamese fare, for the Queensland edition.

delicious. on Sunday appears in Stellar every weekend. Stellar is available in The Sunday Telegraph in New South Wales, the Sunday Herald Sun in Victoria, and The Sunday Mail in Queensland.
