Double bugger...
Marmite spaghetti's been done too

Serves: 1-2
Cooking time: 15 mins

175g spaghetti
25g unsalted butter
1/2 tsp Marmite
Salt, pepper and a squirt of tomato ketchup
Freshly grated parmesan

Cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water following the instructions on the pack. Meanwhile heat the butter in a small saucepan with the Marmite and a spoonful of the pasta cooking water. When the spaghetti is ready, drain it and pour the melted Marmite butter mixture on top. Season with plenty of black pepper and a squeeze of ketchup then sprinkle with plenty of freshly grated parmesan

There's that ketchup on spaghetti thing again...

Of course, I guess anything you can do to drown out the taste of the Marmite would be an improvement...

I expected to be placed in an air force combat position such as security police, forward air control, pararescue or E.O.D. I would have liked dog handler. I had heard about the dog Nemo and was highly impressed. “SFB” is sad I didn’t end up in E.O.D.

NINE months ago Chase Kojima didn't like lamb and wasn't familiar with Vegemite.

But after months of nice-work-if-you-can-get-it intense research, eating at restaurants throughout Sydney and interstate, the California-born chef is converted. Diners at his restaurant Sokyo, which opens at the Star today, will be offered a Moreton Bay bug dish, sashimi style, with Vegemite croutons.

''It's one of my edgy dishes,'' he says. ''I met this man at the fish markets and he had Moreton Bay bugs and they look funny, right, but they taste like shrimp [prawn] and lobster and crab. They are so good and so delicate.

''It was hard for me to understand Vegemite at first but it tastes a lot like Japanese miso so I dried it, made it into a powder and - like Vegemite on toast - used it on croutons.''

Listen, I'm very fond of you British/Aussie lot, but I have to say that your national cuisines do not really inspire.

Except, I look forward to eating the fish & chips when I visit. Nomnomnom . . .

Moreton Bay Bugs are also known as Bay Lobster, Bug, Shovelnose Lobster, Slipper Lobster, Squat Lobster and Mud Bug.

Moreton Bay Bugs are found along the entire coast of the northern half of Australia. They live on the sea bed, in turbid inshore coastal waters from 10 metres to 30 metres in depth over soft, unconsolidated mud and fine sand and silt particles.

Two spawning or more are common and take place during the summer. A female can produce between 16,000 and 60,000 (average 32,000) eggs per brood.

They are active at night, remaining buried in bottom sediment with only their eyes and antennules or "feelers" exposed during the day. They are highly mobile and can move great distances (up to 50 nautical miles)

Adults are selective foragers and will capture live prey including fish, crustaceans and molluscs.

Moreton Bay Bugs are generally caught commercially as a by-catch of local prawn fisheries by demersal otter trawls and with dredge nets.
