Hāngī for Pinot Noir NZ 2025. Two days of cooking up a storm.

We had the opportunity to work with a top tier crew. Massive aroha to Grenville, Clint and the mokos. From one generation to the next the knowledge is shared. Appreciate your mahi. Katie and I learnt a lot.

Fallen leaves - a dish marking the change of season.

Potato & pūhā ravioli with crispy sage and micro kale. Finished with hot bone broth and dried oregano flower.

The fresh egg yolk pasta is laminated with herbs from our māra.

For me, hāngī is more than a style of cooking or a plate of kai. It’s a way for me to connect with my culture.

Ngā mihi YETI for the opportunity to kōrero about kai Māori in the latest issue of Dispatch.
