The perfect recipes for Father's Day
Treat dad to something extra special this Father's Day. Whether it’s breakfast, a barbecue, breakfast in bed, or a hearty Sunday lunch, we’ve got all the Father’s Day recipes you need to make him feel like a king.
Breakfast
MOROCCAN LAMB BENEDICT
One of our favorite foods from Morocco is kofta – who can resist minced lamb and onion packed onto a skewer and cooked on a charcoal grill? This recipe puts a brunch twist on this lamb dish, swapping out skewers for patties and English muffins! The lamb brings so much flavour to the recipe and it’s a fun take on traditional eggs benedict. The Harissa, cumin, and paprika spices bring the flavours of Morocco and the onions keep the meat extra moist. Check out the recipe here.
BRUNCH BEEF HASH
Bring home that café feel this Father’s Day with this Brunch Beef hash. The recipe offers a fancy twist on everyday ingredients (but is still so easy to make). Just chop up your corned beef and potatoes, fry with onions, top with some feta and serve breakfast with a poached egg. Yum! While this recipe is a perfect way to use up that leftover corned beef from dinner, we think that this hash is a good enough reason to make corned beef in the first place. Check out the recipe here.
BEEFY BREAKFAST BURRITO
Looking for a quick and easy recipe for Dad? Look no further than this delicious, protein packed beefy breakfast burrito! Sliced sirloin steak sits lovingly alongside capsicums, mushrooms, avocados, and feta. We’ve also added a little chilli powder and paprika for an extra kick. Check out the recipe here.
BREAKFAST BOLOGNESE
This Breakfast Bolognese is a go-to for Father’s Day regardless of whether Dad’s searching for the perfect savoury Sunday brunch or more of a “eat-whatever’s-left-over-from-the-night-before”. There’s just something about the way the egg yolks break and combine with the really hearty, tomato-based sauce – it gets us every time! Check out the recipe here.
Lunch
STEAK, CHEESE & ONION MELTS
This is taking a steak sandwich to the next level. This dish suits being a lunch or dinner and Dad can choose whether to have a sandwich lid or just eat it open with a knife and fork. Check out the recipe here.
LAMB RUMP STEAKS WITH RED LENTIL SALAD
Lamb rump steaks offer a great alternative protein this fathers day. They’re packed full of flavour and are perfectly complimented by a red lentil salad which is absolutely busting with colour. Check out the recipe here.
HEARTY LAMB & ROSEMARY PIE
Is there anything better than a big hearty meat pie on Father’s Day? This one ticks all the boxes for me; incredibly tasty, loaded with veges and using one of the most delicious cuts of lamb, the shoulder. All bundled up in a puff pastry shell, it’s as equally good for amid-week feast or when you’re entertaining. Check out the recipe.
Dinner
STEAK WITH STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS
Dad will absolutely love this delicious beef rump steak which is served alongside stuffed portobello mushrooms. The addition of ricotta cheese, chopped walnuts, and chives helps take this classic steak dinner to the next level! Check the recipe here.

Surprise your Dad with something a little more special than what you would normally barbecue. This is the ultimate recipe for when you want to impress without spending too long standing over the grill. Serve alongside smashed potatoes with aromatic rosemary and garlic to complement the beef perfectly. Check the recipe here.

The lamb is meltingly tender and the herb stuffing adds bursts of flavour not to mention beautiful colour to the dish. But the best part? It's quick, which means more time to spend with Dad.
