This summer, Australian kitchens are about to get a whole lot hotter, without anyone needing to buy a single chilli.
Inspired by the nation’s booming love affair with spicy novels, EveryPlate has launched Plates of Passion, the first-ever series of audio recipes with a cheeky twist.
Why EveryPlate created ‘spicy’ cooking content
Hannah Gilbert, Senior Product Development Manager at EveryPlate, says the goal is to take the stress – and boredom – out of dinner.
“Aussies are desperate for a fuss-free solution. Plates of Passion dishes up tasty, simple recipes in an unexpectedly spicy way,” she says.
“We’re encouraging Aussies to open up their minds and their palettes to reduce meal time stress.”
What is ‘sizzle lit’?
Think of it as “sizzle lit”: tasty meals, saucy narration, and zero complicated steps that make you wonder why you ever started cooking in the first place.
Nikki Osborne on bringing ‘saucy’ energy to recipes
Voiced by comedian and actor Nikki Osborne, Plates of Passion ditches complicated recipes for simple meals served with extra heat.
“Like the rest of Australia, I love being a bit cheeky and saucy, and if it helps to put a fun and simple spin on the answer, ‘what’s for dinner?” I’m all for it.
“If I can help to bring more sizzle and a healthy dose of double entendres to Aussie kitchens through Plates of Passion, then summer will be a bit hotter for all of us – pun intended.”
