When the days get shorter and the nights a little chillier, there’s something special about coming home to a wholesome, satisfying meal. Whether it’s the aroma of a slow-cooked stew, the familiar taste of roast pork with apple sauce, or a comforting dessert that takes you back to childhood, food has a way of warming both body and spirit.
At Gourmet Meals, we’ve always believed in the power of nourishing, home-style cooking—especially in the cooler months. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our Winter Menu 2025, filled with hearty classics, delicious seasonal favourites, and a few comforting surprises to help you make the most of winter.
Better yet, to celebrate the launch, we’re treating you to something extra. For every order over $95 (excluding delivery), you’ll receive a FREE meal valued up to $9.80*. This special offer runs from 8 July until 12 August 2025, giving you plenty of time to fill your freezer and savour more of what you love.
In this blog, we’ll walk you through the highlights of the Winter Menu, share how to claim your free meal, answer some common questions, and offer ideas for creating the ultimate cosy season at home.
What Makes Our Winter Menu So Special?
Winter cooking is all about comfort, and every meal on our new menu has been thoughtfully created to bring you both flavour and nourishment. Our team of talented chefs has combined the essence of traditional recipes with a modern, health-conscious twist, ensuring that every dish feels indulgent without compromising on nutrition.
Here’s a look at some of the standouts:
Beef Goulash
Rich, tender beef slowly simmered in an aromatic sauce until melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Served alongside roast potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and a creamy cauliflower bake, this dish is a hug in a bowl. Perfect for a weeknight dinner that tastes like it took all afternoon.
Honey Mustard Chicken
A family favourite you’ll want to keep coming back to, this meal features succulent chicken thigh pieces cooked in a tangy honey mustard sauce. Paired with a medley of diced vegetables and roasted potato and sweet potato, it strikes the perfect balance of sweet, savoury, and satisfying.
Pork Roast with Apple Sauce
There’s something undeniably nostalgic about roast pork with apple sauce. This version delivers all the comforting flavours you remember, plus tender potato wedges and fresh broccoli and cauliflower on the side.
Cajun Barramundi and Prawns
For a taste of something a little different, this lively dish combines delicate barramundi fillet and prawns in a fragrant tomato sauce, served with rice, asparagus, broccoli, and green beans. It’s light, bright, and still feels like winter comfort food.
Tandoori Chicken
Spice up your week with tender chicken pieces marinated in an authentic tandoori blend. Served with creamy spinach and fluffy basmati rice, it’s a great way to add variety without the fuss of cooking from scratch.
Apple Rhubarb Crumble
Winter isn’t complete without a warm dessert. This comforting crumble combines tangy rhubarb and sweet apple beneath a golden topping and comes with a rich custard. Just heat and enjoy.
Rice Pudding
A true classic, our rice pudding is smooth, creamy, and made the old-fashioned way. It’s the perfect way to end a meal (or to enjoy as a comforting afternoon treat).
Whether you’re feeding yourself, sharing dinner with loved ones, or caring for an older relative, you’ll find something here that feels familiar and special.
