CHEF NIC WATT'S RECIPES - ON THE WOOP FOODIE MENU

Nic Watt's MASU beed terriyaki plated and ready to eat

MASU Beef Teriyaki Sticky Mushroom Kamameshi Rice

Teriyaki and beef is a classic combination, and this version has a twist. The heat from the ginger and the richness of the shiitake and kamameshi rice really round it out.

Nic Watt's INCA prawn tacos plated and ready to eat

INCA Prawn Tacos with Aji Verde and Kumara Bravas

This dish is vibrant and fun. There’s the spice from the prawns, the tang of the aji verde, and the texture from the crispy kumara. Pro tip: let the tacos steam in their own heat—they’ll become beautifully soft and foldable.

Nic Watt's canting style lemon chicken overhead shot

Canting Style Lemon Chicken with Greens and Cashew Fried Rice

This one’s simple, fresh, and clean—my personal favourite from the Cāntīng menu. It brings that lightness and elegance Cantonese cooking does so well, with a satisfying crunch from the toasted cashews.
