Scammed out of $30,000 💸

If that happened to you early in business, would you kick on or move on? 🤔💭

Add a marriage breakdown and you have a situation most people wouldn’t fight through.

But accidental entrepreneur Steve Robinson did kick on.

He’s gone through the industrial ringer to turn Otway Pasta Company from a kitchen table interest into a national and international reality.

And his pasta is bloody good 🍝

But here’s the kicker…

Don’t go looking for Steve’s pasta in the major grocery store chains.

You won’t find it.

Otway Pasta Company produces quality over quantity.

A local favourite on our shelves.⁠
⁠
We love @otwaypastaco not only because the pasta is great, but because they’re a Victorian family-owned business that puts real thought into what goes into it - free range eggs, Victorian potatoes and Australian wheat.⁠
⁠
It’s the kind of good, simple pasta that works for an easy lunch or dinner, whether you’re keeping it simple or cooking something a little more special.⁠
⁠
Pop in to the Fruit Men and check out the range next time you’re in store.⁠

Fettuccine alla vodka! 🌶️🍸

Creamy, rich and ridiculously easy. This one is a weeknight winner.

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS
• 400g Otway Pasta Company fettuccine
• 200g chicken breast, diced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 60ml vodka
• 330ml thickened cream
• ½ tsp chilli flakes, or to taste
• 50g parmesan, finely grated
• Salt + black pepper

METHOD

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the fettuccine until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then cook for 4–5 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
3. Lower the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook for 3–4 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and cook for another minute.
4. Stir in the tomato paste and chilli flakes. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring, until the tomato paste darkens slightly.
5. Add the vodka and simmer for 1–2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.
6. Stir in the cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the parmesan and season with salt and pepper.
7. Add the cooked fettuccine and chicken to the sauce. Toss well, adding a splash of reserved pasta water until the sauce is silky and coats the pasta.
8. Finish with extra parmesan, cracked black pepper and chilli flakes. Add basil and burrata if you’re feeling fancy! by @otwaypastaco

Have you been to Colac? 🤔

We bet you’ve at least gone close to places like:

✅ Ballarat
✅ Geelong
✅ Apollo Bay
✅ Great Ocean Road

But Colac deserves a spot on your list. Colac is more than just a quick pit stop, it’s a destination in its own right.

In Episode 7, we discover why Colac was named one of the Top 5 Local Government Areas in Australia in the Regional Movers Index! 📈
