10 most popular new recipes of 2024 (so far)
10. Lamb Korma Curry
Iām thrilled to see a recipe thatās not a quick weeknight meal making it into the Top 10! Itās definitely List-Worthy. š
The korma curry sauce is truly amazingāitās a flavour you wonāt find in a jar, and even at a restaurant, youād have to know where to go to find one that rivals this!

9. Smoky Roasted Tomato Soup
I was also really happy to see this make The List! I wasnāt sure if it would appeal, thought perhaps it wasnāt exciting enough for you.š
But what I really like about this soup is that itās a really great way to make something tasty out of lacklustre tomatoes, which is sadly all too common in grocery stores here in Australia. So imagine how great it is when tomatoes are season!

8. Crispy Oven Baked Quesadillas
Strong performer to make the top 10 list because I only published it last month! This is a really handy recipe because you can make multiple quesadillas at the same time in the oven rather than flipping them one by one on the stove. Whoās got time for that when youāve got a hoard of hungry teenagers!

7. Sausage Ragu with Pappardelle Pasta
I feel like the word āraguā always gets your attention. š Though in all seriousness, this oneās pretty special because it gets a massive flavour leg-up by using sausages for the meat, and economical to make too. The richness and depth of flavour in it is really, really good!

6. One-pot Moussaka Beef Rice Pilaf
Hazarding a guess for why this made The List! Letās seeā¦.convenience of a meal in one potā¦. plus the name (everybody loves Moussaka!)ā¦plus maybe the photo looks appealing, with the juicy looking tomato stained rice with the shiny balls of chickpeas?

5. My 14 favourite low-calorie dinners
It was early January when I published this, when New Yearsā resolutions āto be healthierā were still fresh in everyoneās mind!

4. Tray bake lamb kofta meatballs and vegetables
I love a tray bake thatās a little different, like meatballs and vegetables! Works perfectly with the bonus that all your meatballs remain perfectly round, unlike when pan frying when one side always seems to flatten!

3. Singapore Chicken Vermicelli Noodles
Australia is mad for Singapore noodles! But they are kind of a pain to make ā you need a little bit of Char Sui (Chinese BBQ Pork) and freshly peeled prawns. So I made a tonight version using using chicken instead. Instant hit! (I feel this might be happening for my own dinner tonight.)

2. One pot Chicken Risoni with Crispy Salami
Why I think you love it: Because we all love a one pot recipe! Oozy, creamy risotto vibes with a whole lot less work. Also, the crispy salami. Itās worth making this just to experience the crispy salami! #BetterThanBacon

1. Lemon Garlic Salmon Tray Bake
Why I think you love it: Because, everything you need for a meal cooked on one tray! Fast prep. Less washing up. And tasty! Love the lemon garlic flavour on the salmon.

And that rounds off the top 10 most popular recipes of 2024 (so far!). Even though itās not a recipe, Iām still going to drop in an FAQ, mainly cause itās a new website design toy and Iām still having fun playing with it. š
10 most popular recipes of 2024 FAQ
Why are you publishing the list now, on such a random date?
Because it would be too organised to have published this at around, say, the end of June at the halfway mark for 2024. I canāt think that far ahead when it comes to content I publish on my website! Itās very much in the now, what Iām thinking of right now, whatās happening in my life, what Iām cooking in the kitchen right now!
It does bring me to a topic thatās quite close to my heart. Some people find it hard to work in the āfly by the seat of your pantsā style that Iāve adopted for my website. Magazines, for example, are shooting recipes months and months ahead of when they are published.
I canāt do that. Things go stale for me.
I publish what Iām making at the time. Well, more to the point, recipes I finish working on at that time! At any given moment, I usually have multiple recipes on the go, but itās difficult to predict when Iāll finally be happy with it. Might be version 3 or 30!
While this creates a somewhat chaotic and hectic working style, it also means that recipes I publish are in real time and I think you sense that with the enthusiasm with which I describe the recipes and the stories that accompany them.
Or maybe, thatās just me trying to justify my disorganisation. š
What was the criteria for recipes in the running?
It had to be a new recipe that I published during 2024.
How was the top 10 determined?
Based on the number of page views for that recipe from the publish date through to today, Tuesday 27 August 2024.
What tool do you use to determine the publish date?
Itās an analytical tool called Parse.ly that provides real time and historical data that I use to understand the performance of recipes I publish.
We got it when the old Google Analytics reporting tool was closed down and migrated to GA4. I find GA4 incredibly difficult to use and thereās some information that I canāt get at all to monitor how my website is performing!
So we had to find another solution and found Parse.ly which, as far as we know, is the only tool available that meets our needs and is easy to use, bearing in mind IT and I are not friends!
Itās a service provided by WordPress VIP which is an enterprise level WordPress hosting provider.
But it is a premium service and it comes with a hefty price tag. It hurts. But I canāt live without it!!
Itās not really fair. Recipes you published earlier in the year have an unfair advantage.
I know. I am as unhappy as you are. š© For example, I truly believe to my very core that if I had published Cheesymite Scrolls earlier in the year, it would easily be in the top 10. I have faith in Australia! š
I actually do monitor the page views of new recipes very closely for the first 48 hours, and thatās the real method by which I track the popularity of a particular recipe on a day to day basis.
Thereās no report I can run to capture that exact data accurately for all the new recipes of 2024 to compare like-for-like. But I do know, for example, Pistachio Cake which I published a couple of weeks ago outperformed average with over 100,000 readers in the first 48 hours. However, itās nowhere near in the top 10 because I only published it recently!
Pistachio Cake was a surprise hit performer straight out of the gate, with over 100,000 views in the first 48 hours. I did not expect that!
Tell me in the comments below what you thought of The List! Any surprises? Any disappointments? I personally was a little sad that Crispy Salt & Pepper Squid wasnāt on the list, because we worked so hard on that recipe. Hand on heart, between JB, my brother and I, I think we probably made over 30 versions before we cracked the code. And still, to this day, yet to have one as good, even at a restaurant!
Other notable āsad it didnāt make The Cutā mentions include: Chicken Cacciatore (Italian! Stewy! Easy!), Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi (just missed out, coming in at number 12) and Cheesymite Scrolls (Australia! Itās a travesty.).
And my publisher is probably going to be gutted my new book announcement didnāt make The List.
But donāt worry about my publishersā or my opinion! The most important one that matters is in the section below. ā¬ļø š ā Nagi x
Life of Dozer
Dozer is not having a good day.
First, he found out he didnāt make the 2024 top 10, with 13 recipes ahead of his most popular postā¦..
Then he found out itās toy washing day.
This is about as bad as Life of Dozer gets these days! š (And I wouldnāt have it any other way ā¤ļø).
