About Al Brown
Al Brown is one of New Zealand's best known chefs, restaurateurs and food writers. He made his name in Wellington, where he co-founded Logan Brown, and later opened Depot in Auckland, and he has become a familiar face through television and his cookbooks. His cooking celebrates simple, generous, honest food that brings people together, with a strong love of New Zealand produce, seafood and cooking outdoors.
His range of sauces, oils and condiments brings that style of cooking home, so a weeknight meal, a bach barbecue or a fresh catch can taste like something special with very little effort.
Sauces, oils and condiments
The AB infused EVO oils blend extra virgin olive oil with bright flavours, in Lemon Fennel, Lemon Oregano and Orange Chilli, perfect for dressing salads, drizzling over fish or finishing grilled vegetables. Double Brown BBQ sauce is made for the barbecue, Turf and Surf is an all purpose sauce that suits steak and seafood, and Simply Red Kasundi ketchup brings a spiced tomato kick.
Old Yella habanero mustard adds heat, Mello Yella mustard mayo is a creamy all-rounder, and Open Sesame is a Japanese style dressing for salads and noodles. Ginger Ninja ginger lime syrup works in drinks, desserts and marinades. The Pantry Essentials and Sauces For Courses bundles are great ways to try several at once.

What can I use Al Brown infused EVO oil for?
Al Brown infused EVO oils combine extra virgin olive oil with flavours such as Lemon Fennel, Lemon Oregano and Orange Chilli. Use them to dress salads, drizzle over grilled fish and seafood, toss through pasta, brush onto vegetables before roasting or finish a steak straight off the barbecue. They add bright flavour with no extra effort, which makes them handy at the bach, in the campervan or on the boat.
What is kasundi ketchup?

Al Brown's Simply Red Kasundi Ketchup brings those warm, tangy flavours into an easy to use ketchup that pairs well with sausages, burgers, eggs, cheese, roast vegetables and barbecued meats. It is a step up from plain tomato sauce and a great addition to a barbecue spread.

It covers a wide range of New Zealand fish and shellfish with recipes for everything from simple fillets to more involved dishes, alongside stories from the coast.
